Solutions
• This is steam condensation. The
dripping water will stop after a short
time.
• Small loads of 1 to 5 items work best.
Load fewer garments. Load similar
types of garments.
• Use an iron to replace creases and
pleats in garments.
• The amount of static experienced will
depend on the individual moisture
level in the skin.
• Select the load weight manually
before starting the Reduce Static
option.
• Select the correct number of
garments or load size before starting
the cycle.
• Unplug dryer and call for service.
• Condensation will normally form on
the inside of the dryer door during
steam operation. Some condensation
may drip out the bottom of the door.
• Steam vapor is difficult to see
when the door is closed. However,
condensation will normally form on
the inside of the dryer door if the
steam system is operating normally.
• The drum is turned off so that the
steam vapor remains in the drum.
The drum will normally turn for about
2 seconds once a minute.
• Steam is released at different stages
of the cycle for each option.
• Fabrics containing strong odors
should be washed in a normal cycle.
