FLOW SENSE™ DUCT BLOCKAGE
SENSING SYSTEM INDICATOR
The FLOW SENSE™ duct blockage sensing
system detects and alerts you to blockages
in the ductwork that reduce exhaust flow
from the dryer. This improves operating
efficiency and helps minimize service calls,
saving you money.
THE LCD DISPLAY (cont.)
THE DUCTWORK HAS
A BLOCKAGE THAT NEEDS
TO BE REMOVED
IMMEDIATELY.
NEED FLOW CHECK
If no bars are shown in the
display, the ductwork is free from
blockages.
If two bars in the display are
lighted, examine the dryer
exhaust system for lint build up
or other restrictions, including
damage, excess length, foreign
objects, etc. See note below.
If all bars are lit, the dryer
ductwork has a blockage
that needs to be removed
immediately.
END OF CYCLE
• 2 bars are displayed In the LCD screen.
• Ductwork is slightly too long or has too
many turns/restrictions.
• Partial blockage of the
ductwork due to lint
buildup.
1. Possible causes
Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See
the Installation Instructions.
Ductwork should be checked/cleaned soon.
Dryer can be used in this condition, but
drying times may be longer.
• If “END OF CYCLE” is displayed after the
end of cycle, it will be off in 4 minutes. If
POWER button is pressed or the door is
opened, power will be off immediately.
2. Solutions
NOTE: If the duct has been checked and
cleaned and two bars are still displayed after
several cycles, then there is some restriction
in the duct due to length, condition, etc. In
this case, no further action is necessary and
the dryer can be used normally. However,
drying times may be increased and there may
be some reduction in operating efficiency
• 4 bars are displayed In the LCD screen.
• Ductwork is too long or has too many turns/
restrictions.
• Significant blockage of the ductwork due to
lint buildup or debris.
