CYCLE STATUS INDICATORS
The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle.
Not all indicators are available on all models.
Sensing
The Sensing indicator will light periodically during Sensor
Cycles to indicate that the moisture sensor on the dryer is
operating. This indicator will not light during Timed Cycles
or options such as Wrinkle Prevent.
Wet
The load is still wet and/or the cycle just started.
Damp
This indicator shows that the load is partially dried and
items that you may wish to hang up or iron while still damp
may be removed.
Cool Down
The dryer has finished drying with heat and is now
tumbling the load without heat to cool it down.
Check Vent
The Check Vent indicator is a feature available for
Automatic cycles only. This indicator will show the status
of airflow through the dryer and the dryer vent system
for the dryer’s life. During the sensing phase at the
beginning of the cycle, the Check Vent light will come on
if a blocked vent or low airflow issue is detected. This light
will stay on for the entire cycle. Should the Check Vent
light illuminate, refer to the “Troubleshooting” section for
potential solutions to the issue.
The light will be cleared upon completion of the cycle,
touching Power, or opening the door. The Check Vent light
will continue to illuminate during the cycle unless the root
cause is resolved.
REMEMBER:
The dryer will continue to operate even
while the indicator is lit, but poor airflow can impact dry
times and overall performance. For more information on
maintaining good airflow, see “Check Your Vent System
for Good Airflow.”
NOTE:
If there are other error issues during a cycle,
the Check Vent indicator will not light up. See the
“Troubleshooting” section.
End
This will indicate that the selected cycle has ended
and the load may be removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle
Prevent has been selected, the dryer may continue to
tumble the load, even if “End” is displayed.
Control Lock
This will illuminate once the controls are locked.
