5.Problem:There is static in my clothes after
drying
Question What to Do
4.Problem:There is Lint
on
my Clothes
Question What
to
Do
Please refer
to
the manual section
on
cleaning
the lint filter, and
please
confirm that the
lint filter is clean. It is important that the lint filter is clean before each
new
load of
laundry.
In order
to
reduce the
amount
of lint in
a
load of
laundry, sort
lint producers (like
a
fuzzy white
cotton
towel) separately
from clothes that
might
catch lint
(such
as a
pair
of black linen
pants).
See
comments
below under There is static in my clothes after drying.
Divide your
larger
load into smaller loads.
Sometimes
a
person
might forget to
take
a
piece
of paper
or a
tissue
out
of the
pocket
of
a
pair
of
pants,
and this paper,
tissue,
or
similar material
can cause excess
lint in
a
load of
laundry.
Confirm that the
pockets
of pants, shirts, and other articles of
clothing
are
empty
before washing and drying.
?
Is your lint filter full?
?
Did you
properly sort
your load of
laundry?
?
Do your clothes have
excess
static
electricity?
?
Did you overload your dryer?
?
Did you
place
any paper,
tissue,
or
other similar material in the load?
?
Did you
use
fabric softener?
?
Did you
over
dry
the load of
laundry?
?
Are you
drying synthetic,
permanent
press and blends?
Try using
a
fabric softener
to
reduce static
electricity.
Over-drying
a
load of
laundry
can cause a
build up of static
electricity. Try
using
a
fabric softener
or
adjust
your
settings
and
use a
shorter
drying
time.
These materials
can cause
static
to
build up in
a
load of dried clothes.
Try
using
a
fabric softener.
6.Problem:The
drying
time is
not
consistent
Question
?
Are you
using
consistent heat
settings
and consistent load sizes?
The
drying
time for
a
load will vary
depending
on
the heat
setting,
the
type
of heat
used (electric, natural
or
LP
gas),
the size of the
load,
the
type
of
fabrics,
the
wetness
of the clothes and the condition of the exhaust ducts and lint filer.
