Before calllng for asslstance... Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind. DRYER DOES NOT RUN: • Is electric power cord plugged in? • Is the dryer door closed tightly? Your dryer has a switch by the door that shuts off the dryer if the door is opened. • Did you push the Start Button? • Check circuit breakers or both fuses in the fuse box. DRYER RUNS BUT DOES NOT HEAT: PERMANENT PRESS are without heat] • Is it a gas dryer? See if the gas is turned on, If not, turn the Cycle Control Knob to OFF. Turn on the gas and wait five minutes for the automatic switch to reset. Then try starting it again. • Is it an electric dryer? Check the circuit breakers or fuses in the fuse box. An electric dryer wil! have two fuses. If one is blown, the dryer may run, but not heat. DRYING TIME IS LONGER THAN USUAL: the lint screen. Remove lint. Keep the screen clean for best drying results and times. • Modern dryers are designed to dry at the cooler temperatures needed by modern fabrics They may need more time than you are used to. • Room temperature is cold.
