How Amana Dryers Are Built
Automatic cycles rely on the load contacting the sensor strips in the drum, so an unlevel dryer or very small load can end the cycle early. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
Amana Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Cycle ends too soon. Amana says the load may not be touching the sensor strips, so level the dryer and use Timed Dry or a different dryness level for very small loads. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
- Clothes take too long to dry. Amana points to a dirty lint screen, overloading, a No Heat setting, or a vent that is clogged, crushed, kinked, too long or has too many turns. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
When to Call for Amana Dryer Repair
- Squealing, thumping or grinding while it runs
- Drum will not turn even though you hear a hum
- Burning or hot smell during a cycle
What a Dryer Repair Technician Checks
Care Amana Recommends for Its Dryers
- Clean the lint screen before every load and never run the dryer with a loose, damaged, blocked or missing screen. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
- Every six months, or sooner if lint falls off during use, wash the lint screen with hot water, liquid detergent and a nylon brush to remove residue. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
