Possible Solutions

What cycle was selected?

Cycle selection is important. During Automatic Cycles, drying air temperature and moisture level are sensed continuously in the load. In Automatic cycles, time may adjust either up or down depending on load size, material types, and drying rate. The dryer will automatically adjust the remaining time based on the selected dryness. The dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness.

Timed cycles will only run for the amount of time selected.

Air Dry or Fluff: does not add heat to the dryer at any time during the cycle. It is best used for items where no heat is desired, such as items that will shrink easily.
Quick Dry and Rapid Dry: are timed cycles designed to dry smaller loads.
Normal, Heavy Duty, Colors: are all automatic cycles
The EcoBoost™ option will default on only for the Regular/Normal cycle and is only available on that cycle. This option increases your energy savings by using a slightly lower heat level. The EcoBoost™ option will increase drying times by approximately 40 minutes, which will be reflected on the LED Display. If optimal time is desired, touch ECOBOOST to turn off this option.

Were clothes added after the cycle started?

If wet or damp clothes are added after the cycle has started, the dryer will automatically adjust the remaining time based on the new moisture levels detected in the dryer.
