Possible Causes
For steam cycles, the water is not
properly connected with the dryer.
Odors are left in garments after
wearing.
Load removed before cooldown
portion of cycle complete.
Using Timed Dry cycle with a high
temperature setting.
The drying cycle has been interrupted
by a power failure.
There may be a problem with your
home power supply, keeping the
dryer's heater from turning on.
The dryer is in need of service.
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.
To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Steam
Refresh. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles and odors from
dry loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester
blends, common knits, and synthetics.
Allow the dryer to complete the cooldown portion of the cycle
before removing the load.
Select an Automatic Cycle with a lower heat setting to avoid
overdrying the load.
Touch and hold START to restart the dryer cycle or touch power
to clear the display.
The dryer will continue to run when this diagnostic code is
present. Touch any pad to clear the code from the display and
return to the estimated time remaining.
NOTE: This error will only show during the initial installation.
Try the following:
•
Check to see if a household fuse has blown or circuit breaker
has tripped. Electric dryers use two household fuses or
breakers. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
•
Confirm that the power cord is properly installed. Refer to
the Installation Instructions for details.
•
Select a Timed Dry heated cycle, and restart the dryer.
If the message persists, consult a qualified electrician.
If a code beginning with an "F" appears in the display, alternating
between F# and E#, the dryer control has detected a problem
that requires service. Call for service.
