30 INSTALLATION Installation Test (Duct Check) Once you have completed the installation of the dryer, use this test to make sure the condition of the exhaust system is adequate for proper operation of the dryer. This test should be performed to alert you to any serious problems in the exhaust system of your home. •• This dryer features Flow Sense™, an innovative sensing system that automatically detects blockages and restrictions in dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint buildup and free of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use. NOTE The dryer should be cool before starting this test. If the dryer was warmed up during installation, run the AIR DRY cycle for a few minutes to reduce the interior temperature. To activate the installation test: 1 Remove the drying rack and literature, and then close the door. Do not load anything in the drum for this test, as in may affect the accuracy of the results. 2 Press and hold the POWER, Temp., and Wrinkle Care buttons until and a usage count alternate in the display. (The usage count indicates the number of cycles run with no load during the last 5 cycles.) 3 Press the START/PAUSE button. The dryer will start the test, which will last about 2 minutes. The heat will be turned on and the temperatures in the drum will be measured and displayed. A chime sounds when the test portion of the cycle is complete. 4 Check the display for results. During the test cycle, monitor the Flow Sense™ display on the control panel. If the Flow Sense™ LED is not turned on, when the cycle ends, the exhaust system is adequate. If the exhaust system is severely restricted, the Flow Sense™ LED will be turned on. Other problems may also be shown with error codes. See the chart below for error code details and solutions.
