Maintenance
Keep the dryer clean to prevent decreased performance and to lengthen its life.
WARNING
Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric
shock only during servicing.
Service Personnel - Do not contact the following parts while the appliance is energized:
Control board and inlet valve.
Vent sensor (DVE(G)45M5500* models only)
The dryer features a vent sensor that detects and noties you when it is time to clean the
ductwork. The indicator lets you know the status of the duct.
Level
Indicator
Status Action
0 Off The ductwork is not clogged.
1 On
• The duct or lint lter is
clogged.
• The pressure applied to
the duct is high because
the duct is too long or
bent.
• Check the lint lter or duct
and clean if necessary.
• Check the duct connections
and shorten or straighten
the duct if necessary.
2 Blinking
• The duct or lint lter is
severely clogged.
• The pressure applied
to the duct is very high
because the duct is too
long or bent.
• Check and clean the lint
lter or duct and make
sure they are not clogged.
• Check the duct connections
and shorten or straighten
the duct work.
If the dryer is in the Level 2 state, the indicator blinks for 3 hours after the completion
of the current cycle. If you press POWER or open the door, the dryer powers off
immediately.
NOTE
• For duct installation, see “Exhaust ducting guide” on page 28 and “Ducting
requirements” on page 14.
• The dryer may keep running even if the duct is clogged, but the drying time will be
extended.
• If the indicator turns on for the rst time and is solid (not blinking), check and clean the
lint lter and/or duct.
• If the indicator turns on again later, it is because the duct is installed or connected with
some restrictions (it’s too long or has too many bends). This is not a system failure.
However, drying time may be extended or the drying performance may be degraded.
