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 two 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 DRY or DAMP DRY setting.
