the Installation Instructions for details.

due to lint buildup or other

foreign object.

Ductwork should be checked/cleaned

immediately. Dryer can be used in this

condition, but drying times will be longer

and energy consumption will increase.

The appliance has detected a

restriction in the external dryer

venting.

If exhaust restrictions are sensed by the

cycle. Opening the door or pressing the

POWER

button will turn off the display.

TM

indicator is reset.

If the Flow Sense

TM

indicator remains

active for more than five cycles after

the restriction has been cleared, call for

service.

be necessary to clean the filter during the

cycle.
