gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor
for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below
45°F (7°0)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45°F (7°C).
• Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum
of 1" (2,5 cm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear
of the dryer requires 5" (12.7 cm), See the Installation
Instructions,
• Has the Air Only temperature setting been selected?
Select the right temperature for the types of garments being
dried. See "Additional Features."

Separate the load to tumble freely,
Cycle time too short
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
• Is the automatic cycle ending early?
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the
dryer.
Change the dryness level setting on Automatic Cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the
amount of drying time in a cycle.
Lint on load
• Is the lint screen clogged?
Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.
Stains on load or drum
Was dryer fabric softener properly used?
Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can
stain your garments,
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue
jeans). This will not transfer to other clothing.

Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?
Select Enhanced Touch Up Cycle to tumble the load with
water and heat to help smooth out wrinkles from a load left in
the dryer.

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely,
Odors
Have you recently been painting, staining or varnishing in
the area where your dryer is located?
If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone
from the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
