What To Do
• Make sure the dryer plug is pushed completely into
the outlet.
• Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace
fuse or reset breaker. NOTE: Most electric dryers use
2 fuses/breakers.
• Check the house 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.
• Move dryer to an even floor space, or adjust leveling legs
as necessary until even.
• Follow directions on fabric softener package.
• Use your dryer to dry only clean items. Dirty items can
stain clean items and the dryer.

clothes are wet appear after drying. Use proper washing
procedures before drying.

• Sort lint producers (like chenille) from lint collectors
(like corduroy).
• See suggestions in this section under Static occurs.
