Lint Screen: The lint screen is located in the door opening. A blocked screen increases drying time. It is imperative to clean the lint screen after every use. https://youtu.be/1ZlmHCFaCnQ
AF Error Code or Check Vent Light: A clogged exhaust vent system slows moist air removal and extends drying time. Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood; if airflow is less than a hair dryer on high speed, clean the lint from the entire vent system and exhaust hood. https://youtu.be/Ge0JUp9zUvo
Home Venting Line: Long dry times, even when the dryer is heating, are often caused by a vent issue or restricted airflow. The vent line from the dryer to the outside of the home should be cleaned every one to two years or when a decrease in drying performance is noted. You may also contact a professional vent cleaning service.
Benefits of Regular Vent Cleaning: Reduce Drying Time, Increase Air Flow, and Reduce Energy Cost.
Dryer Vent Testing Kit: To help assess your dryer vent system's performance, Whirlpool offers a convenient and reliable testing kit. Visit Dryer Test Kit or Contact Us to purchase part #W11224254. https://www.whirlpoolparts.com/PartDetail/Vent-Testing-Kit/W11224254/4814253
Cycle Selection: Cycle selection is important. If clothes are not reaching the desired dryness level, select a different cycle such as ""More Dry"" or ""Regular."" For best performance, use an automatic cycle.
Quick Dry and Rapid Dry are timed cycles for smaller loads. If clothes are still wet, run the cycle again.
Steam Cycle: Steam cycles are optimized for large, normal, or heavy loads. Using this feature with smaller loads may result in wet spots or condensation. This option adds approximately 3-8 minutes to the total cycle time.
It is recommended for wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics to smooth wrinkles and reduce odors. Refer to garment care label instructions; dry-clean-only garments are not recommended.
For more information, refer to How the Steam Option Works: https://producthelp.whirlpool.com/Laundry/Dryers/Product_Info/Dryer_Tips_and_Tricks/How_the_Steam_Option_Works
Dryer Level: If the dryer is not level, clothing may not make proper contact with the moisture sensors during Automatic cycles. Consult your Owner's Manual for leveling instructions.
