Solutions
This is steam condensation. The dripping
water will stop after a short time.
Small loads of 1 to 5 items work best.
Load fewer garments. Load similar types
of garments.
Use an iron to replace creases and pleats
in garments.
The amount of static experienced will
depend on the individual moisture level in
the skin.
Select the load weight manually before
starting the Reduce Static option.
Select the correct number of garments or
load size before starting the cycle.
Unplug dryer and call for service.
Condensation will normally form on the
inside of the dryer door during steam
operation. Some condensation may drip
out the bottom of the door.
Steam vapor is difficult to see when the
door is closed. However, condensation
will normally form on the inside of
the dryer door if the steam system is
operating normally.
The drum is turned off so that the steam
vapor remains in the drum. The drum will
normally turn for about 2 seconds once a
minute.
Steam is released at different stages of
the cycle for each option.
Fabrics containing strong odors should be
washed in a normal cycle.
