We are sorry to hear about your concerns with your Maytag® Dryer. Please try these troubleshooting tips provided below: Lint Screen: The lint screen is in the door opening. Clean it after every use to prevent blocked airflow and increased drying time. Ventilation: AF Error Code or Check Vent Light: Check for these indicators. A clogged exhaust vent slows moist air and extends drying time. Airflow Check: Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. If the airflow from the outside exhaust hood is less than a hair dryer on high speed, clean the lint from the entire vent system and exhaust hood. Home Venting Line: Long dry times (even if heating) are likely caused by a vent issue. The vent line to the outside should be cleaned every 1–2 years or as needed. Professional cleaning is an option. Benefits of Cleaning: Reduces Drying Time, Increases Air Flow, Reduces Energy Cost. Dryer Vent Testing Kit: You can order a testing kit directly from Maytag.com to assess your vent system. Visit Dryer Test Kit or Contact Us to purchase part #W11224254. Cycle Selection: If clothes are not reaching the desired dryness level, try selecting a different setting, such as "More Dry" or "Regular." For best results, use an automatic cycle. Quick Dry/Rapid Dry are timed cycles for smaller loads and may need to be run again. Dryer Level: If the dryer is not level, clothes may not contact the moisture sensors during Automatic cycles. Refer to your Owner's Manual for leveling instructions. You can also learn how to use your phone to level household appliances. Factory Dryness Level: Adjust the default dryness level for your Automatic Cycles if loads are consistently too wet or too dry. Refer to your Owner's Manual for cycle options. "Static Reduce" (some models): This option adds 3–8 minutes and works best for large, normal, or heavy loads. Using it on delicate, low-heat, or very small loads may result in wet spots.
