shrinking
Lint on clothes
Fabric softener used incorrectly.
• Confirm and follow the instructions provided with your fabric softener.
Clean and dirty clothes are being dried together.
• Use your dryer to dry only clean items. Soil from dirty clothes can transfer to the
clean clothes in the same or later loads.
Clothes were not properly cleaned or rinsed before being placed in the
dryer.
• Stains on dried clothes could be stains that were not removed during the
washing process. Make sure that clothes are being completely cleaned or
rinsed according to the instructions for your washer and detergent. Some
difficult soils may require pre-treating prior to washing.
Clothes dried too long (over dried).
• Over drying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes. Try a shorter drying
time or LESS DRY setting and remove items while they still retain a slight
amount of moisture.
Clothes left in dryer too long after cycle ends.
• Use the WRINKLE CARE option. This feature will tumble the clothes briefly
every few minutes for up to 3 hours to help prevent wrinkling.
Garment care instructions are not being followed.
• To avoid shrinking your clothes, always consult and follow fabric care
instructions. Some fabrics will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can
be washed but will shrink when dried in a dryer. Use a low or no heat setting.
Lint filter not cleaned properly.
• Remove the lint from the filter before every load. With the lint removed, hold
the filter up to a light to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it looks dirty, follow the
cleaning instructions. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may
be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.
Laundry not sorted properly.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a fuzzy white cotton towel) and should
be dried separately from clothes that are lint trappers (i.e., a pair of black linen
pants).
Excess static in clothes.
• Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity. Be sure to follow the
manufacturer's instructions. Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup
of static electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or use
SENSOR DRY cycles.
Dryer is overloaded.
• Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for drying.
Tissue, paper, etc., left in pockets.
• Check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying clothes.
