Problem Possible Causes What To Do
Clothes take too long
to dry
Improper sorting • Separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally,
a well-sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load).
Large loads of heavy fabrics
(like beach towels)
• Large, heavy fabrics contain more moisture and take
longer to dry. Separate large, heavy fabrics into smaller
loads to speed drying time.
Controls improperly set • Match control settings to the load you are drying.
Lint filter is full • Clean lint filter before every load.
Improper or obstructed
ducting
• Check installation instructions for proper
ducting/venting.
• Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks and
unobstructed.
• Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily.
• Check the Installation Instructions to make sure the
dryer venting is correct.
Blown fuses or tripped
circuit breaker
• Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since most dryers
use 2 fuses/breakers, make sure both are operating.
Overloading/combining loads • Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer at
a time.
Underloading • If you are drying only one or two items, add a few items
to ensure proper tumbling.
Clothes are wrinkled Overdrying • Select a shorter drying time.
• Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of
moisture. Select a LESS DRV or DAMP DRY setting.
Letting items sit in dryer
after cycle ends
• Remove items when cycle ends and fold or hang
immediately.
Overloading • Separate large loads into smaller ones.

Clothes shrink Some fabrics will naturally shrink
when washed. Others can be
safely washed, but will shrink
in the dryer ' To avoid shrinkage, follow garment care labels exactly.
' Some items may be pressed back into shape after drying.
' If you are concerned about shrinkage in a particular
item, do not machine wash or tumble dry it.
