The automatic dry times vary
according to the type of the load, type
of fabrics, the dampness of the clothing
and the state of the exhaust ducts
Separate heavy articles from light ones
(generally a load that is well sorted for
the washing machine is also well sorted
for the dryer)
Large and heavy fabrics retain more
moisture and require a longer time to
dry. Divide large and heavy fabrics into
smaller loads to shorten the dry time
Adjust the controls to the right settings
for the load to be dried
Review the installation instructions to
achieve appropiate ventilation
Make sure that the duct is clean and free
on kinks and obstructions
Check to make sure that the vent damper
is working freely
Review installation instructions to make
sure that dryer's ventilation is correct
Replace the fuses or restart the circuit
breakers. Since the majority of dryers use
two fuses or breakers, make sure that
both are working.
