Check Your Vent System for Good Airflow
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
Good airflow
Along with heat, dryers require good airflow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.
The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good airflow.
Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.
Maintain good airflow by:
■ Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
■ Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
■ Use the shortest length of vent possible.
■ Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces airflow.
■ Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
■ Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check.
■ Clear away items from the front of the dryer.
Use Automatic Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Use the Automatic Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Cycles, drying air temperature and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer (on some models)
■ Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than those without. 100% cotton items may require additional touching up after cycles that use steam.
■ Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.
■ Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments prior to using a cycle that uses steam.
The Steam Refresh Cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads consisting of dry items of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits, and synthetics.
Control panel and features
Not all features and cycles are available on all models.
NOTE: The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your finger. To ensure your selections are registered, touch the control panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.

IMPORTANT:
■ Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See "Venting Requirements" in the Installation Instructions.
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
To wash:
- Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
- Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
- Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.

NON-USE, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE
Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hose, freezing can damage your dryer. If storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather, winterize it.
Non-Use or Storage Care
Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of time, you should:
- Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
- Clean lint screen. See "Cleaning the Lint Screen."
- Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to avoid unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.
Moving Care
For power supply cord-connected dryers:
- Unplug the power supply cord.
- Gas models only: Close shut-off valve in gas supply line.
- Gas models only: Disconnect gas supply line pipe and remove fittings attached to dryer pipe.
- Gas models only: Cap the open gas supply line.
- Steam models only: Shut off water faucet.

| Dryer will not run | Door not closed completely. | Make sure the dryer door is closed completely. |
| START/PAUSE not touched firmly or held long enough. | Touch and hold START/PAUSE 2-5 seconds. | |
| Household fuse is blown or circuit breaker has tripped. | There may be 2 household fuses or circuit breakers for the dryer. Check that both fuses are intact and tight, or that both circuit breakers have not tripped. Replace the fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician. | |
| Incorrect power supply. | Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a qualified electrician. | |
| Wrong type of fuse. | Use a time-delay fuse. | |
| Dryer will not heat | Household fuse is blown or circuit breaker has tripped. | The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Electric dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace the fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician. |
| Incorrect power supply. | Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a qualified electrician. | |
| Supply line valve not open. | For gas dryers, make sure that the valve on the gas supply line is open. | |
| Unusual Noise | ||
| Humming or whining noise with Steam cycle selected (on some models) | Water pump or water inlet valve (depending on model) on dryer is running. | The water pump or water inlet valve on the dryer is used during the Steam function. If the dryer has just been installed or unused for an extended period, the pump or valve may be louder and run longer. This is normal.NOTE: The valve may make this noise even with no water line connected. |
| Thumping noise | Dryer hasn't been used in a while. | This is due to temporary flat spots on the drum rollers. The thumping sound will diminish after a few minutes. |
| Rattling or vibrating noise | A small object caught between the edges of dryer drum. | Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects. Clean out pockets before laundering. |
| Dryer isn't properly leveled. | The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in firm contact with the floor. | |
| Clothing is balled up in dryer. | When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer. | |
| Clicking noise | Gas valve operating. | On gas dryers, you may hear the gas valve clicking as it opens and closes. This is normal. |
| Loud humming or increased noise during cycle | Load is packed tightly or exhaust vent is blocked. | Reduce load size to recommended load size in “Cycle Guide.” 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 or air movement is minimal, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation Instructions. |
| Dryer Results | ||
| Clothes are not drying satisfactorily or drying times are too long | EcoBoostTM option is on. | For optimal dry times, turn off the EcoBoostTM option. For optimal energy, turn on the EcoBoostTM option. |
| Lint screen is clogged with lint. | Clean lint screen before each load. | |
| The exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood is clogged with lint, restricting air movement. | 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 or air movement is minimal, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation Instructions. | |

| If you experience | Possible Causes | Solution |
| Dryer Results (cont.) | ||
| Clothes are not drying satisfactorily or drying times are too long (cont.) | The exhaust vent is not the correct length. | Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the Installation Instructions. |
| The exhaust vent diameter is not the correct size. | Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material. | |
| The dryer is not level. | Clothes not contacting the moisture sensors during Automatic cycles. See “Level Dryer” in the Installation Instructions. | |
| The Air Only temperature setting has been selected. | Select the correct temperature for the types of garments being dried. See “Cycle Guide.” | |
| The load is too large and heavy to dry quickly. | Separate the load to tumble freely. | |
| Fabric softener sheets are blocking the grille. | The air outlet grille is just inside the door, behind the lint screen. Check that it is not blocked by a fabric softener sheet. Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once. | |
| The dryer is located in a room with temperature below 45°F (7°C). | Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45°F (7°C). | |
| The dryer is located in a closet. | Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum of 1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the Installation Instructions. | |
| Cycle time is too short | The load may not be contacting the sensor strips on Automatic Cycles. | Level the dryer. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in firm contact with the floor. |
| Steam models only: Clothes are coming out of the Steam Refresh cycle with damp or wet spots. | Under certain environmental or installation conditions, you may experience underdrying. | |
| The automatic cycle is ending early. | Change the dryness level setting on Automatic Cycles. Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the amount of drying time in a cycle. If loads are consistently ending too early, see also “Changing the Automatic Cycle settings to increase or decrease drying time.” | |
| Lint on load | Lint screen is clogged with lint. | Clean lint screen before each load. |
| Stains on load | Improper use of fabric softener. | Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle. Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with steam cycles. |
| Stains on drum | Loose dyes in clothes. | Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans). These will not transfer to other clothing. |
| Loads are wrinkled | The load was not removed from dryer at the end of the cycle. | Steam models only: Select Steam Refresh Cycle to tumble the load with water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from dry loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry-clean-only garments are not recommended. |
| The dryer was tightly packed. | Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Results may also vary depending on fabric type. | |
| Steam models only: For steam cycles, the water is not properly connected with the dryer. | Steam models only: Make sure water is connected to the dryer. Check that water inlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer's water inlet valve. Check that the water supply is turned on. | |

| Load too hot | Load removed before cooldown portion of cycle complete. | Allow the dryer to complete the cooldown portion of the cycle before removing the load. |
| Using Timed Dry cycle with a high temperature setting. | Select an Automatic Cycle with a lower heat setting to avoid overdrying the load. | |
| Dryer Displaying Code Message or Cycle Status Indicator Lights Up | ||
| “PF” (power failure) | The drying cycle has been interrupted by a power failure. | Touch and hold START to restart the dryer. NOTE: The Control Lock function may be enabled when recovering from a power failure. To unlock the control, touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for at least 3 seconds. |
| “L2” Diagnostic Code (low or no line voltage condition) | There may be a problem with your home power supply, keeping the dryer's heater from turning on. | The dryer will continue to run when this diagnostic code is present. Touch any pad to clear the code from the display and return to the estimated time remaining. NOTE: This error will only show during the initial installation.
