Troubleshooting
SYMPTOM
POSSIBLE CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS
Linting Problem
1. Is the lint bucket full? When lint reaches the top of the
transparent section of the bucket it needs emptying.
2. Have you separated lint shedding garments (eg towels) from lint
receiving garments (eg synthetics).
3. Have you checked your pockets for tissues or other items that
could have been left in them?
4. Have you over-loaded your dryer? Over-loading can result in
linting problems due to reduced airflow and lint not being able to
collect on the filter.
5. Have you over-dried your load? Over-drying can cause lint-
attracting static electricity. Try a lower dryness setting or use
AUTO-SENSING instead of TIME DRY.
6. Is the lint bucket in place?
Static problems
1. Have your clothes been over-dried? Reduce the dryness setting.
2. Have you used fabric softener? Place fabric softener sheets in the
dryer.
Items shrinking
1. Has the load been over-dried? Choose a lower dryness setting.
2. Is tumble drying recommended? Check care labels inside
garments.
3. If you selected TIME DRY - did you set it to dry for too long?
4. Has the correct temperature been used to dry the garment?
Check the care label
Loads are wrinkled
1. Does the load sit higher than the lint bucket? Your dryer is over-
loaded, decrease the load size.
2. Did you remove your clothes as soon as the dryer was finished?
Use the WRINKLE FREE option, if you cannot return to the dryer in
time.
3. Have your clothes been over-dried? Select a lower dryness level.
Check your garments care labels.
