Possible Causes
The load may not be contacting the
sensor strips on Sensor Cycles.
The Sensor Cycle is ending early.
Lint screen is clogged with lint.
Improper use of fabric softener.
Loose dyes in clothes.
The load was not removed from dryer
at the end of the cycle.
The dryer was tightly packed.
Recent painting, staining, or varnishing
in the area where your dryer is located.
Load removed before cool down
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.
Level the dryer. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet
should be in firm contact with the floor.
Change the dryness level setting on Sensor Cycles. Increasing
or decreasing the dryness level will change the amount of drying
time in a cycle. If loads are consistently ending too early, see also
"Changing the Sensor Cycle settings to increase or decrease drying
time. "
Clean lint screen 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.
Select Steam Refresh Cycle (on some models) to tumble the load
with water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles
and reducing odors from dry loads consisting of one to 9 dry items
of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits, and
synthetic garments.
NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry-clean-only
garments are not recommended.
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Results may also vary
depending on fabric type. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles
and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-
polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.
Ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the area,
rewash and dry the clothing.
Allow the dryer to complete the cool down portion of the cycle
before removing the load.
Select an Sensor Cycle with a lower heat setting to avoid overdrying
the load.
Touch the START key to clear the PF error message; then press and
hold the START key to resume cycle.
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.
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.
