DUCT CONDITION TEST Your dryer features FlowSenseTM, 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: 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. To activate the duct condition test : NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed before proceeding. Then perform the duct condition test below: 1 Press and hold the DAMP DRY BEEP and TEMP.CONTROL buttons at the same time. While holding these buttons, press POWER ON/OFF. Correct Venting Restricted or Blocked Airflow Avoid long runs or runs with multiple elbows or bends. 2 The display will show the FLOW CHECK start screen. 3 Press START/PAUSE. The dryer will run for approximately 2 minutes to test for blockages or restrictions to air 0:02 EST. TIME REMAINING FLOW CHECK HIGH flow in the ductwork. COMPLETED FLOW CHECK THE DUCTWORK IS FREE FROM BLOCKAGES OR RESTRICTIONS. If no bars are shown in the display, the ductwork is free from blockages or restrictions. NEED FLOW CHECK THE DUCTWORK HAS A BLOCKAGE THAT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY. If all bars are lit, the dryer ductwork has a blockage that needs to be removed immediately. IMPORTANT: Do NOT interrupt the test cycle! NOTE : Even if no bars are displayed during the duct condition test, some restrictions may still be present in the exhaust dust. Refer to pages 14-15 for more information. 26 Check for blockages and lint buildup. Make sure the ductwork is not crushed or restricted.
