Possible Causes

Dryer not level, Worn or missing leveling feet, Uneven floor, Large heavy items tumbling unevenly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the dryer before adjusting feet or moving the appliance.

  • Level the dryer:
    • Place a level on top of the dryer front-to-back and side-to-side.
    • Adjust the leveling feet until the dryer is stable and level.
  • Check feet condition:
    • Inspect leveling feet for damage or missing pads; replace if necessary.
  • Load balance:
    • Avoid drying a single heavy item (e.g., large blanket) alone; mix with smaller items to balance the load.
  • Stacked units:
    • If stacked on a Frigidaire washer, ensure the stacking kit is installed correctly and both units are level.
