Kfyou need service or assistance,

we suggest you follow these five steps:

1. Before calling for

assistance...

Performance problems often result

from little things you can find and fix

yourself without tools of any kind.

IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT RUN:

Is the power supply plugged into a

live circuit with the proper voltage?

Is the door closed tightly?

Did you push the STARTButton?

IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT HEAT:

The AIR setting is without heat.

The last minutes of heat settings are

without heat.

An electric dryer uses a circuit

breaker or 2 fuses. If one fuse is

blown, the dryer may run, but not

heat.

IF DRYING TIME SEEMS LONG:

Is the lint screen clean? See page 8

of this book for cleaning instructions.

See page 7 of this book and your

“Dryer Guide:

Have you checked your home’s

main fuses or circuit breaker box?
