Dries Unevenly
• Be sure the door is shut.
• Check to make sure the electrical
cord is plugged in.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Push the control dial in again if the door was opened during the cycle.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Select a heat setting, not air fluff.
• Check that the gas supply is on for gas dryers.
• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.
• Dryer timer may have moved into the cool-down
portion of the cycle.
Check all of the above, plus...
• Check the exhaust hood outside the house, make sure it opens and closes freely.
• Check exhaust system for lint buildup.
Ducting should be inspected
and cleaned annually.
• Use rigid 4" metal exhaust duct.
• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
• Sort heavy items from lightweight
items.
• Large, bulky items like blankets or comforters
may require repositioning
to ensure even
drying.
• Check the washer to be sure it is draining
properly to extract water from the load.
• Clothes load is too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.
• Check the load for objects such as coins, nails, etc. Remove promptly
from dryer.
• It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element cycle on and off during the
drying cycle.
• The dryer should be level and installed on a solid floor.
• A clicking
noise may be the timer advancing.
• It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air moving through
the dryer
drum and exhaust system.
This is normal operation
for an Auto Dry or Sensor cycle, especially at the beginning
of
cycle. Once the load begins to dry, the control knob will start to advance. The rate of
advancement
will be slow at the beginning
of the cycle because there is more moisture
in
the load. As the load becomes more dry, the control knob will advance more quickly.
Seams, pockets and other similar heavy areas may not be completely
dry when the rest of
the load has reached the selected dryness level. This is normal. Select the More Dry
setting if desired.
If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight
load, such as one towel with sheets, it is
possible that the heavy item will not be completely
dry when the rest of the load has
reached the selected dryness level. Sort heavy items from lightweight
items for best drying
results.
Has an Odor
• Household
odors such as from painting, varnishing,
strong cleaners, etc. may enter the
dryer with the surrounding
room air. This is normal as the dryer draws the air from the
room, heats it, pulls it through the tumbler and exhausts it to the outside. When these
odors are present in the air, ventilate the room completely
before using the dryer.
