5. Problem: There is lint on my clothes.
Question What to Do
• Is your lint lter full? Please refer to the manual section on cleaning the lint lter, and please
conrm that the lint lter is clean. It is important that the lint lter is clean
before each new load of laundry.
• Did you properly sort your
load of laundry?
In order to reduce the amount of lint in a load of laundry, sort lint
producers (like a fuzzy white cotton towels) separately from clothes that
might catch lint (such as a pair of black linen pants).
• Do your clothes have excess
static electricity?
See comments below under “There Is Static In My Clothes After Drying”.
• Did you overload your dryer? Divide your larger load into smaller loads.
• Did you place any paper,
tissue, or other similar
material in the load?
Sometimes a person might forget to take a piece of paper or a tissue out
of a pocket, and this paper, tissue, or similar material can cause excess
lint in a load of laundry.
Conrm that the pockets of pants, shirts, and other articles of clothing
are empty before washing and drying.

drying cycle.
• Did you use fabric softener? Try using a fabric softener to reduce static electricity.

heat settings and consistent
load sizes

cabinet cover when opening
the door?
