Solutions
TM
If the Flow Sense indicator remains
active for more than five cycles after
the restriction has been cleared, call for
service.
Make sure that the plug is securely
plugged into a grounded outlet matching
the dryer's rating plate.
Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do
not increase fuse capacity. If the problem
is a circuit overload, have it corrected by
a qualified electrician.

NOTE
Due to the design of electric dryers, it
is possible for a circuit problem to allow
an electric dryer to run without heat.
Confirm that the house gas shutoff and
the dryer gas shutoff valves are both fully
open. Even if gas is not supplied to the
dryer, it will run and no error codes will
display. Verify that other gas appliances in
the home are working normally.
If using the Cotton/Normal cycle, deselect
the energy saver option. The Energy Saver
option is selected by default. This option
reduces energy use by adding an air dry
section to the beginning of the cycle. It is
normal to feel no heat at the beginning of
the cycle while in Energy Saver mode.
Confirm that the exhaust duct is properly
configured and free of debris, lint, and
obstructions. Make sure that outside wall
dampers can open properly and are not
blocked, jammed, or damaged.
Separate heavy items from lightweight
items. Larger and heavier items take
longer to dry. Light items in a load with
heavy items can fool the sensor because
the light items dry faster.
