Dryer leaves black or brown marks on clothes.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before internal inspection.

• Inspect drum surface: Look for sticky or greasy spots inside the drum. Clean with a mild detergent and warm water, then dry.
• Check felt seals: Remove the front panel and inspect the drum felt seals. Replace if they are worn, torn, or shedding material.
• Inspect rear bearing: If fitted, check the rear drum bearing for grease leaks. Replace the drum bearing kit if leaking or worn.
• Check baffles: Ensure drum baffles are smooth and not cracked or sharp. Replace damaged baffles.
