BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE (cont.)
Clothes are wrinkled
Check if... Then...
Clothes dried too long (overdried).
Clothes left in dryer too long after cycle ends.
Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes.
Try a shorter drying time or LESS DRY setting and remove
items while they still retain a slight amount of moisture.
Use the WRINKLE GUARD option. This feature will tumble
the clothes briefly every few minutes for up to 150minutes to
help prevent wrinkling.
Clothes are shrinking
Check if...
Garment care instructions are not being followed.
Then...
To avoid shrinkage, please carefully follow the fabric care
instructions for your garment, because some fabrics will
naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can be washed
but will shrink when dried in a dryer. Use a low or no
heat setting and/or the RACK DRY if available.

Lint on clothes
Check if...
Lint filter not cleaned properly.
Laundry not sorted properly.
Excess static in clothes.
Then...
Remove the lint from the filter before every load. With the lint
removed, hold the filter up to a light to see if it is dirty or
clogged. If it looks dirty, follow the cleaning instructions on
page 28. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint,
it may be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.
Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a fuzzy white cotton towel)
and should be dried separately from clothes that are lint trappers
(i.e., a pair of black linen pants).
• Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity. Be sure to
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
• Over-drying a load of laundry can cause a buildup of static
electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or
use AUTO DRY cycles.
Dryer is overloaded. Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for drying.
Tissue, paper, etc., left in pockets. Check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying clothes.
