24 INSTALLATION
the exhaust duct can be measured with a
manometer, placed on the exhaust duct
approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static
pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6
inch (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while
the dryer is running with no load.
Checking Levelness
Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the
dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is level front
to back and side to side, and that all four leveling
feet are in firm contact with the floor.
Test Exhaust System
Once you have completed the installation of the
appliance, use this test to make sure the condition
of the exhaust system is adequate for proper
operation of the appliance. This test should be
performed to alert you to any serious problems in
the exhaust system of your home.
•Your appliance features Flow Sense
TM
, 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.
• The appliance should be cool before starting this
test. If the appliance was warmed up during
installation, run the Air Dry cycle for a few
minutes to reduce the interior temperature.
Activating the Installation Test
1 Remove any packing materials or other items
from inside the drum and close the door.
• Do not load anything in the drum for this
test, as it may affect the accuracy of the
results.
2 Press the Power button and IMMEDIATELY
press and hold the Temp. and Dry Level
buttons.
• The cycle LEDs will flicker if the activation is
successful.
3 Press the Start/Pause button.
• The appliance will start the test, which will
last a few minutes. The heat will be turned
on and the temperatures in the drum will be
measured.
4 Check the display for results.
• During the test cycle, monitor the Flow
Sense
TM
display on the control panel. If the
Flow Sense
TM
LED has not turned on when
the cycle ends, the exhaust system is
adequate. If the exhaust system is severely
restricted, the Flow Sense
TM
LED will turn
on. Other problems may also be shown with
error codes. See the chart on the next page
for error code details and solutions.
• The Flow Sense
TM
LED indicates that the
exhaust system is severely restricted. Have
the system checked immediately, as
performance will be poor.
5 End of cycle.
• At the end of the test cycle, a chime will
sound and the appliance will shut off
automatically after a short delay.
• After entering the Install mode, illuminating the
Normal cycle means the heating state.
• After entering the Install mode, illuminating the
Heavy Duty cycle means the cooling state.
• The option LED is gradually illuminated, which
means that the oulet temperature is increasing.
Check the Duct Condition
If the Flow Sense
TM
LED is turned on, check the
exhaust system for restrictions and damage.
Repair or replace the exhaust system as needed.
• When the appliance is first installed, this test
should be performed to alert you to any existing
problems with the exhaust duct in your home.
