If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician. • Check the duct condition If the test displays four bars, check the exhaust system for restrictions and damage. Repair or replace the exhaust system as needed. NOTE When the dryer is first installed, this test should be performed to alert you to any existing problems with the exhaust duct in your home. However, since the test performed during normal operation provides more accurate information on the condition of the exhaust duct than does the installation test, the number of bars displayed during the two tests may not be the same. Do not interrupt the test cycle, as this could result in the wrong results. Even if no bars are displayed during the test cycle, some restrictions may still be present in the exhaust system. Refer to the Venting the Dryer section of this manual for complete exhaust system and venting requirements. Restricted or Blocked Airflow Avoid long runs or runs with multiple elbows or bends.
