TROUBLESHOOTING (cont.)

The four indicator lights of 

DRYING

COOL DOWN

EXTRA CARE 

and 

CLEAN LINT 

FILTER 

will flash the number of times for the first digit of the code after the E, and the 

START

indicator light will flash the number of times for the second digit after the E. The code is 
obtained by counting the number of times the lights flash. Example E24: the four
indicator lights would flash twice indicating the 2 and the 

START 

indicator light will flash 

four times indicating the 4. The four indicator lights and the 

START 

indicator light will 

start flashing at the same time. The control will then pause for 2 seconds, then repeat 
the code.
Troubleshoot the problem by using the chart on the next pages.

The error codes remain in memory until cleared from the control.

To move to the next code, press the 

OPTIONS 

button.

To clear the code, press the 

SELECT 

button.

To exit this mode, simultaneously press and hold the 

SELECT 

and 

PAUSE CANCEL 

buttons for 6 seconds.
