ENGLISH 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. ••Your 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. Activating 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 it may affect the accuracy of the results.
