The dryer is in need of service.
Solution
Ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from
the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
Make sure water is connected to the dryer. Check that water
inlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer's water
inlet valve. Check that the water supply is turned on.

from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester

Select a Timed Dry heated cycle, and restart the dryer.
If the message persists, consult a qualified electrician.
