If the test displays FLOW SENSE, check the exhaust system for
restrictions and damage. Repair or replace the exhaust system as
needed.
NOTE
When the dryer is first installed, this test should be performed
to alert you to any existing problems with the exhaust duct in
your home. However, since the test performed during normal
operation provides more accurate information on the condi-
tion of the exhaust duct than does the installation test, FLOW
SENSE displayed during the two tests may not be the same.
Do not interrupt the test cycle, as this could result in the wrong
results.
Even if FLOW SENSE is not displayed during the test cycle,
some restrictions may still be present in the exhaust system.
Refer to the Venting the Dryer section of this manual for com-
plete exhaust system and venting requirements.
