• Check the exhaust hood outside the house, make sure it opens and closes freely.
Properly
• Check exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should be inspected and cleaned annually.
• Use rigid 4" metal exhaust duct.
• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.
• Large, bulky items like blankets or comforters may require repositioning to ensure even
drying.
• Check the washer to be sure it is draining properly to extract water from the load.
• Clothes load is too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.
• Check the load for objects such as coins, nails, etc. Remove promptly from dryer.

drying cycle.
• The dryer should be level and installed on a solid floor.
• A clicking noise may be the timer advancing.

setting if desired.
• If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight load, such as one towel with sheets, it is
possible that the heavy item will not be completely dry when the rest of the load has
reached the selected dryness level. Sort heavy items from lightweight items for best drying
results.
• Household odors such as from painting, varnishing, strong cleaners, etc. may enter the

dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as the dryer draws the air from the
room, heats it, pulls it through the tumbler and exhausts it to the outside. When these
odors are present in the air, ventilate the room completely before using the dryer.
