• Separate heavy items from lightweight
items. Larger and
heavier items take longer to dry.
• Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend to
retain more moisture. To help reduce and maintain
more
consistent
drying times for large and heavy fabrics,
separate these items into smaller loads of a consistent
size.
• Use the appropriate
control settings for the type of load
you are drying.
• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With
some loads that produce
high amounts of lint, it may be
necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.
• Confirm that the exhaust ductwork
is properly configured
and free of debris, lint, and obstructions.
Make sure that
outside wall dampers can open properly and are not
blocked, jammed, or damaged.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase
fuse capacity. If the problem
is a circuit overload,
have it
corrected
by a qualified
electrician.
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• If you are drying a very small load, acid a few extra items
to ensure proper tumbling
action.
• Overdrying
a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled
clothes.
Try a shorter
drying time, and remove items while they
still retain a slight amount
of moisture.
• Remove items from the dryer immediately
at the end
of the cycle. Use the Wrinkle Care option to continue
tumbling
clothes at the end of the cycle, for up to 3 hours.
• To avoid shrinkage,
please carefully follow the fabric
care instructions
for your garment,
because some fabrics
will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can be
washed but will shrink when dried in a dryer. Use a low or
no heat setting.
• Check steam feeder drawer:
(1) Make sure steam feeder is filled with water to MAX line.
(2) Make sure steam feeder is seated properly and drawer is
fully closed.
(3) Turn the dryer off then restart the Steam cycle.
