If Your Intuitive™ Dryer Beeps For Help
Your Intuitive™ dryer is capable of diagnosing its own troubles. If your dryer is displaying a
message on the display screen and is sounding a musical series of beeps every 5 seconds, it
has a problem that you may be able to solve using the checklist below. (It’s the same sound
Intuitive™ dryer makes when you plug it in).
If you are unable to solve the problem from the checklist below call for service.
Machine is beeping and… “I can’t get ANY AIR” (your dryer is still running)
This message indicates there is an airflow restriction and your clothes will take longer to dry.
Possible reasons for the airflow restriction could include:
Your lint bucket is too full. Remove the lint from the lint bucket, then run the dryer on any
cycle for a few minutes with no load to remove any lint still trapped in the dryer. Empty the lint
bucket again.
Check the exhaust system. The ducting could be restricted, squashed or blocked. Is the piping
bent, kinked or clogged? Does it need to be cleaned?
Machine is beeping and … “I can’t LOCK THE LID”
Close the lid and press START/PAUSE.
If the lid is already closed, open the lid and close it again, then press START/PAUSE.
Disconnect from the power (either by unplugging the dryer or turning off the circuit breaker
that supplies it). Wait 10 seconds, reconnect and try turning it on again.
Machine is beeping and… “I can’t CLOSE THE DRUM”
The machine is unable to close the drum due to clothes interfering with the closing
mechanism. Remove any articles that are interfering with the drum door and dry these in the
next load.
Is your load higher than the top of the lint bucket? Remove some articles and dry these in the
next load.
If your dryer is continually beeping and a message is displayed on the screen, a fault has
occurred which requires repair from a Service Agent.
Pressing the POWER button once will stop the beeping but will still display the fault code. We
recommend leaving the machine in this mode as the fault code will enable the service person to
quickly identify the cause of the problem.
