Cannot see steam vapor at the beginning of cycle. Possible Cause & Solution This is normal. • Steam vapor is difficult to see when the door is closed. However, condensation will normally form on the inside of the dryer door if the steam system is operating normally. This is normal. • The drum is turned off so that the steam vapor remains in the drum. The drum will normally turn for about 2 seconds once a minute. This is normal. • Steam is released at different stages of the cycle for each option. Indicator Messages Problem Possible Cause & Solution Flow Sense indicator (W) shows four bars during the drying cycle or the display shows d8O after drying. Exhaust system is too long or has too many turns/restrictions. • Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See the Installation Instructions for details. Partial blockage of the ductwork due to lint buildup or other foreign object. • Ductwork should be checked/cleaned immediately. Dryer can be used in this condition, but drying times will be longer and energy consumption will increase. The appliance has detected a restriction in the external dryer venting. • If exhaust restrictions are sensed by the Flow Sense system, the indicator will remain on for 2 hours after the end of the cycle. Opening the door or pressing the Power button will turn off the display. • This warning light is not a dryer failure and is not covered by the dryer warranty. Contact a duct cleaning service to set up an appointment to have your exhaust system cleaned and inspected. The Flow Sense indicator (W) remains active after clearing the restriction in the venting. After clearing the restriction, the Flow Sense system requires multiple, consecutive cycles to determine that the performance value has improved before the Flow Sense indicator is reset. • If the Flow Sense indicator remains active for more than five cycles after the restriction has been cleared, call for service. Check filter indicator (K) is on during the drying cycle. Lint filter not cleaned properly. • Remove the lint from the filter before every load. With the lint removed, hold the filter up to a light to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it looks dirty, follow the cleaning instructions. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.
