WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
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.
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Is the exhaust vent the correct length?
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the
Installation Instructions.
Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?
Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.
Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below
45ºF (7ºC)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45ºF (7ºC).
Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The rear of the dryer requires 5½" (14 cm)
of airspace, and the sides and front of the dryer require a
minimum of 1" (2.5 cm). See the Installation Instructions.
Has the Air Only modifier been selected?
Select the right temperature for the types of garments being
dried. See "Modifiers."
Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Are clothes coming out of the Quick Refresh cycle with
damp or wet spots?
Under certain environmental or installation conditions you
may experience underdrying. Select the Timed Dry cycle
(20 min. default time), which can be customized by choosing
temperature by pressing TEMP and/or cycle time by pressing
the Time Adjust up or down buttons.

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. Do not use fabric softener sheets in the
Enhanced Touch Up or Quick Refresh Steam cycles.
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue
jeans). This will not transfer to other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled
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.
Was the dryer overloaded?
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Smaller loads of
one to four garments yield best results with Quick Refresh
Cycle. 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.
Loads are still wrinkled following SteamCare cycle?
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. This
cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors
from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester
blends, common knits and synthetic garments.
NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry clean
only garments are not recommended.
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.

To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Quick
Refresh Cycle for small loads of one to four garments. This
cycle is best for reducing and odors from loads consisting of
wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits
and synthetics.
