Separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally, a well-sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load). Large, heavy fabrics contain more moisture and take longer to dry. Separate large, heavy fabrics into smaller loads to speed drying time. Condensing dryers usually take longer to dry than a vented dryer. Match control settings to the load you are drying. Remove and clean the condenser box. Also, clean the location where the condenser box is located ensuring all seals are free from debris. Put the condenser box back and lock it in place.

Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer at a time. If you are drying only one or two items, add a few items to ensure proper tumbling. When combining heavy and light fabrics in a load, choose More Dry. Inspect and clean lint filter, condenser, and/or air intake vent located on the front of the dryer. Clean the sensor with a moist cloth. Press Start/Pause. Hold the Lock Control button for 3 seconds to unlock the dryer. Reset the in-house breaker. This is normal. Press Power to activate the control panel. Make sure the dryer plug is pushed completely into the outlet. Check the building's fuse/circuit breaker box and replace fuse or reset breaker. NOTE: Electric dryers use two fuses or breakers. If the light on the Start/Pause button is flashing, the dryer is paused. Press Start/Pause to restart the countdown. If the Empty Tank light is on, you must empty the water tank before the dryer will start. Refer to the Care and Cleaning section for instructions on emptying the water tank. This is normal. When the dryer senses a low level of moisture in the load, the dryer will display the dry time remaining. 24 49-3000193

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Problem
Possible Cause
What To Do
Dryer shakes or
makes noise
Some shaking/noise is normal.
Dryer may be sitting unevenly.
Move dryer to an even floor space, or adjust leveling legs as necessary
until even.
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.
Non-venting dryer
Condensing dryers usually take longer to dry than a vented dryer.
Controls improperly set
Match control settings to the load you are drying.
Condenser box is clogged
Remove and clean the condenser box. Also, clean the location where
the condenser box is located ensuring all seals are free from debris.
Put the condenser box back and lock it in place. See
Condenser
in the
Care and Cleaning
section.
Lint filter is full
Clean lint filter before every load.
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.
The Dry dryness
level was chosen
but load is still
damp
Load consists of a mixture of
heavy and light fabrics
When combining heavy and light fabrics in a load, choose
More Dry.
Lint filter, condenser, and/or air
intake vent located on the front
of the dryer is blocked
Inspect and clean lint filter, condenser, and/or air intake vent located on
the front of the dryer.

Dryer is continuously
monitoring the amount of
moisture in the clothes
This is normal. When the dryer senses a low level of moisture in the load,
the dryer will display the dry time remaining.
