FLOW CHECk (DUCT CONDITION TEST)

Your dryer features FlowCheck
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.

NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed
