Dryer - Clothing Too Hot

  • Troubleshooting
Dryer - Too Hot
  1. Interrupted Cycle

    Did you remove the clothing items before the cycle had finished?

    All cycles have a "Cool Down" mode. This happens during the last five minutes of the cycle. Air flows and the drum and clothing continue tumbling, but there is no heat. This allows for the heat from the dry mode to be exhausted out of the drum and the clothes to cool.

  2. Cycle Settings

    Was the cycle setting appropriate for the load type?

    Different fabrics have different care needs and requirements. Not following the instructions on the fabric care tag can result in improper washing and drying. Make certain that settings on dryer are proper for the fabric types of the load.

  3. Clogged Venting (Exhaust)

    This can be the result of restricted air flow resulting from a clogged or restricted exhaust duct. The exchaust duct should be cleaned at least once per year.
