Your dryer features FlowSense

, 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 fi rst 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 fl ow check (Duct condition test) :

NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed before proceeding. Then perform the duct
condition test below:

If no bars are shown in
the display, the ductwork
is free from blockages
or restrictions.

If all bars are lit, the
dryer ductwork has a
blockage that needs to
be removed immediately.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT interrupt the test cycle!

THE DUCTWORK IS FREE
FROM BLOCKAGES OR
RESTRICTIONS.
