TROUBLESHOOTING

First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.

If you experience

Clothes are not drying

satisfactorily, drying

times are too long, or

load is too hot

Dryer will not run

Unusual sounds

Possible Causes

Lint screen clogged with lint.

The Air Dry cycle has been selected.

Load too large and heavy to dry

quickly.

Exhaust vent or outside exhaust

hood clogged with lint, restricting air

movement.

Fabric softener sheets blocking

the grille.

Exhaust vent not the correct length.

Exhaust vent diameter is not the

correct size.

Dryer located in a room with

temperature below 7ºC (45ºF).

Dryer located in a closet.

Door not closed completely.

START/PAUSE button not pressed

firmly or held long enough.

Household fuse is blown or circuit

breaker has tripped.

Incorrect power supply.

Wrong type of fuse.

Dryer had a period of non-use.

A coin, button, or paper clip is

caught between the drum and front

or rear of the dryer.

Gas valve operating (gas dryers only).

The four legs are not installed, or the

dryer is not level front to back and

side to side.

Clothing knotted or balled up.

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried.

See "Air Dry."

Separate the load to tumble freely.

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 Installation

Instructions.

Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too

many turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the

Installation Instructions.

Use 102 mm (4") diameter vent material.

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above

7ºC (45ºF).

Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and

bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum

of 25 mm (1") of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of

the dryer requires 127 mm (5"). See Installation Instructions.

Make sure the dryer door is closed completely.

Press and HOLD the START/PAUSE button until you hear the

dryer drum moving.

Electric dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. The

drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Replace the

fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call

an electrician.

Electric dryers require 220–240 volt power supply.

Check with a qualified electrician.

Use a time-delay fuse.

If the dryer hasn't been used for a while, there may be a

thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.

Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.

Clean out pockets before laundering.

The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.

The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed.

See Installation Instructions.

When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to

vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.
