Door or lid won't close

Once Child Lock is activated, it will remain active even after the dryer is restarted or power-cycled. All buttons except the Power button are disabled. If a customer reports that buttons are not responding, check the Child Lock indicator first. Deactivate by pressing and holding Dryness + Temp for 3 seconds simultaneously.

When reversing the dryer door, there is a screw on the back side of the hinge that supports the door against the frame so you can unscrew or screw in the hinge screws without needing to support the door yourself. This support screw must be moved to the opposite hole on the back of the hinge when changing door direction. Missing this step means you will struggle to hold the door while working on the hinge screws. Also ensure the protrusion on the back of the hinge is pressed into the cut-out before tightening hinge screws.

When reassembling the door switch to the Frame Front, the insert direction is critical. Installing the door switch in the wrong orientation will cause it to malfunction and may trigger dC or dF error codes. The manual specifically warns to be careful of insert direction when reassembling the Door-Switch Housing.

The Smart Install mode (Adjust Time Up + Temp for 7 seconds) includes a built-in vent blockage test that goes beyond the real-time vent sensor. After checking the touch sensor, close the door and press Start to run the vent test. Warning codes C8/C80, C9/C90, Ct, C1 indicate varying degrees of vent restriction. 'End' or '0' means the vent is clear. This is the fastest way to verify vent condition during a service call.
