long, or load is too hot
Is the lint screen clogged with lint?.
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with
lint, restricting air movement?
Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the
outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not feel
air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust
vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation
Instructions.
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
