installation test (Exhaust check) (cont.)
• Check the Error Code before you call for service
Error Code
tE1 or tE2
HS
PS or PF or nP
• Check the duct condition
If the test displays four bars, check the exhaust system for re-
strictions 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, the
number of bars 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 no bars are 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 complete exhaust
system and venting requirements.
