Your dryer features FlowCheck

, 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 flow check (Duct condition test) :

NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed

before proceeding. Then perform the duct

condition test below:

Press the OPTION button, then select

CUSTOM PGM.

After 3 seconds, or

by pressing the EXIT

button, the display

will show the FLOW

CHECK start screen.

Press START/PAUSE. The dryer

will run for approximately 2

minutes to test

for blockages or

restrictions to air flow in the

ductwork.

FLOW CHECk (DUCT CONDITION TEST)

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.
