washer at the end of the drying

cycle.

Remove garments promptly at the end of the drying cycle, or use

The washer was tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Loading drum a quarter

Load too hot Load removed before cool-down

portion of cycle is complete.

Allow the drying cycle to complete the cool-down portion of the

cycle before removing the load. If you cancel the cycle before the

cool-down portion of the cycle and immediately remove the load,

it will be very hot.
