First try the solutions suggested here and possibly avoid the cost of a service call... Clothes are not drying satisfactorily
s

As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can buildup on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off the screen. Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every six months or more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.

To wash
1. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water. 2. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.

Check the following: Is the lint screen clogged with lint? Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint, restricting air movement? Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See your Installation Instructions. Is the exhaust vent crushed or kinked? Replace with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See your Installation Instructions.

3. Rinse screen with hot water. 4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen in dryer.

Has a fuse blown, or a circuit breaker tripped? Electric dryers use 2 household fuses or breakers. The drum may be turning but you may not have heat. Has an air dry cycle been selected? Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried. See �Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips.� For gas dryers, is the valve open on the supply line? Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grill? Use only one fabric softener sheet and only use it once.

Cleaning the Dryer Interior

Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below 45ºF (7ºC)? Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45ºF (7ºC). Was a cold rinse water used? Was the load very wet? Expect longer drying times with items rinsed in cold water and with items that hold moisture (cottons). Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly? Separate the load to tumble freely.

s

Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
To clean dryer drum
1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very warm water. 2. Apply paste to a soft cloth. OR Apply a liquid, non-flammable household cleaner to the stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is removed. 3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth. 4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum. NOTE: Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to prevent dye transfer.
