or rear of the dryer.
The four legs are not installed, and
the dryer is not level front to back
and side to side.

Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried.
See "Fluff Air."
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the
outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not feel
air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust
vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See Installation
Instructions.
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too
many turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See
Installation Instructions.
Use 102 mm (4") diameter vent material.
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
7ºC (45ºF).
Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum
of 25 mm (1") of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear
of the dryer requires 127 mm (5"). See Installation Instructions.
Make sure the dryer door is closed completely.
Press and hold the PUSH to START knob until you hear the dryer
drum moving.
Electric dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. The
drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Replace the
fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call
an electrician.
Electric dryers require 220-240V/60H power supply.
Check with a qualified electrician.
Use a time-delay fuse.
If the dryer hasn't been used for awhile, there may be a
thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.
Clean out pockets before laundering.
The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed.
See Installation Instructions.
When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to
vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.
The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Electric
dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace the
fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call
an electrician.
