To clean the lint filter, first ensure the dryer is off. Open the dryer door and locate the lint filter at the bottom of the opening. Pull it out, remove any lint by hand or with a soft brush, and rinse it under warm water if necessary. Make sure the filter is completely dry before reinserting it.
First, check if the dryer is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure the door is fully closed. If these are not the issues, inspect the thermal fuse and heating element for continuity using a multimeter. Replace any faulty parts.
Ensure the dryer is level and stable. Check for any foreign objects in the drum or filter area. Inspect the drum rollers, idler pulley, and drive belt for wear and replace them if necessary. Regular maintenance can prevent noises.
Clean the lint filter after every load. Inspect the venting system every three months and clean it annually. Check the drum, belt, and seals for wear every six months. Schedule professional maintenance annually for optimal performance.
To reset the dryer, unplug it from the power outlet for about 5 minutes. Plug it back in, then press and hold the start/pause button for 5 seconds. This should reset the control panel.
Ensure the lint filter and venting system are clean. Check if the load size is appropriate and not too large. Verify that the selected drying cycle matches the fabric type. Inspect the heating element for any issues.

Refer to the user manual for a list of error codes and their meanings. Common issues can often be resolved by resetting the dryer or checking for blockages in the venting system. If the problem persists, contact a professional technician.
Check if the dryer is overheating, which can trigger a thermal cutoff. Ensure the door is fully closed and the door switch is functioning. Inspect the power cord and outlet for issues. Reset the dryer if necessary.
