Possible Causes
Household fuse is blown or circuit
breaker has tripped.
Incorrect power supply.
Automatic cycle ending early.
Lint screen clogged.
Dryer fabric softener not properly
used.
Load not removed from dryer at the
end of the cycle.
Dryer tightly packed.
You have recently been painting,
staining, or varnishing in the area
where your dryer is located.
The dryer is being used for the first
time.
Laundry items were removed from
the dryer before the end of the cycle.
A high temperature cycle was used.
240 V models: The drum may be turning, but you may not have
heat. Electric dryers use two household fuses or circuit breakers.
Replace both fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem
continues, call an electrician.
240 V models: Electric dryers require 240 V power supply. Check
with a qualified electrician.
120 V models: The load may not be contacting the sensor strips
Level the dryer.
Use Timed Drying for very small loads. Change the Dryness
Level setting on the Normal and Delicate cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the Dryness Level setting will change
the amount of drying time in a cycle.
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
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).
These will not transfer to other clothing.
Run the Air Only cycle to tumble the load without heat to avoid
wrinkling.
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely to reduce the chance of
wrinkles forming.
Ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the
area, rewash and dry the clothing.
The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor
will be gone after the first cycle.
All cycles are cooled slowly to reduced wrinkling and make it
easier to handle. Items removed before the cool down may feel
very warm.
Select a lower temperature, and use an automatic drying cycle.
These cycles sense the temperature or the moisture level in the
load and shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness.
This reduces overdrying.
