INSTALLATION

ENGLISH

Installation Test (Duct Check)

Once you have completed the installation of the

dryer, use this test to make sure the condition of the

exhaust system is adequate for proper operation of

the dryer. This test should be performed to alert you

to any serious problems in the exhaust system of

your home.

Your dryer features Flow Sense™, 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

• The dryer should be cool before starting this test. If

the dryer was warmed up during installation, run the

Air Dry cycle for a few minutes to reduce the interior

temperature.
