What To Do
• This is normal.
• This is normal. During extended tumbling, the time
remaining is not displayed. The extended tumbling
option lasts approximately 60 minutes.
• Press Start/Pause to begin a dry cycle and the message
will disappear.
• Check the building's fuse/circuit breaker box and
replace both fuses or reset both breakers. Your dryer
may tumble if only one fuse is blown or one breaker
tripped.
• Make sure gas shutoff at dryer and main shutoff are
fully open.
• Refill or replace tank. Dryer should heat when utility
service is restored.
• Drying time will vary according to the type of heat used.
If you recently changed from an electric to a gas
(natural or LP) dryer, or vice versa, the drying time
could be different.
• The load size, types of fabric, wetness of clothes and the
length and condition of the exhaust system will affect
drying times.
• A dry cycle must be reselected each time a new load
is put in.
• When drying 3 items or less, choose Speed Dry or
Time Dry.
• Choose Speed Dry or Time Dry to dry damp collars
and waistbands. In the future, when drying a load with
collars and waistbands, choose More Dry.
• Move dryer to an even floor space or adjust leveling legs
as necessary until even.
• Select a shorter drying time.
• Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of
moisture. Select a Less Dry or Damp setting.
• Remove items when cycle ends and fold or hang
immediately, or use the Ext Tumble option.
• Separate large loads into smaller ones.
