7. Problem: It takes too long for my clothes to dry
Question
Did you properly sort your loads of
laundry?
Are you drying large loads of heavy
fabrics?
Are the dryer controls properly set?
Is the lint filter clean before each new
load of laundry?
Is the fuse blown, or is the circuit
breaker tripped?
Did you overload your dryer?
Did you under load your dryer?
8. Problem: My clothes are wrinkled
Question
Are you overdrying your laundry?
Are you removing your laundry from
the dryer soon after the drying cycle is
complete?
9. Problem: My clothes are shrinking
Question
Are you following the care instructions
for your garment?
Separate heavy weight items from light weight items when creating loads.
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.
Please confirm that the lint filter is clean prior to each new load of laundry.
Check your home's or laundry room's fuse box/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse
or reset the circuit breaker.
Divide your larger load into a number of smaller loads.
If you are only drying a handful of items, add a few extra pieces to help 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 your laundry from the dryer after the drying cycle ends and either hang or
fold the items.
To avoid shrinkage, carefully follow the care and use 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.
