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.

Do not use the dryer until the exhaust system

has been cleaned and/or repaired. Using the

dryer with a severely restricted exhaust is

dangerous and could result in a fire or other

property damage.

Check the outside dryer vent while the dryer

is operating to make sure there is strong

airflow.

If the exhaust system is extremely long, have

it repaired or rerouted.

House exhaust system

blocked.

Keep the area around the dryer clean and

free of clutter.

Check vent hood for damage or lint clogging.

Make sure the area around the vent hood is

clear.

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.
