IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The information in this service guide is intended for use by individuals possessing skill and experience in
electrical, electronic, and mechanical appliance repair. Any attempt to repair a major appliance may result
in personal injury and property damage. The manufacturer or seller cannot be responsible for the
interpretation of this information, nor can it assume any liability in connection with its use.
H WARNING !
To avoid personal injury, disconnect power before servicing this product. If electrical power is required
for diagnosis or test purposes, disconnect the power immediately after performing the necessary checks.
IMPORTANT
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Sensitive Electronics
ESD problems are present everywhere. ESD may damage or weaken the electronic
control assembly. The new control assembly may appear to work well after repair is
finished, but failure may occur at a later date due to ESD stress.
Use an anti-static wrist strap. Connect wrist strap to green ground connection point or unpainted
metal in the appliance.
- OR -
Touch your finger repeatedly to a green ground connection point or unpainted metal
in the appliance.
Before removing the part from its package, touch the anti-static bag to a green ground connection
point or unpainted metal in the appliance.
Avoid touching electronic parts or terminal contacts; handle electronic control assembly by edges only.
When repackaging failed electronic control assembly in anti-static bag, observe above instructions.

9 FLOW SENSOR FUNCTION
9-1 Flow sensor
This FlowSenseTM function detects the clogging or blocking of ducts.
Clogged duct vents or hoses decrease efficiency in drying cloths. Clogged vents can also cause fire.
This function alerts you to the need of cleaning the duct.
When the alarm about Duct clogging is on display of the panel, your duct vents should be cleaned by
yourself or serviceman.
