WARNING
The information within this manual is intended for Qualified Service Technicians Only.
- DO NOT reach into the appliance while the tub or drum is spinning.
- Disconnect power before servicing machine.
- Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric shock only during servicing.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The cabinet interior of the dryer, lint filter housing, and exhaust duct should be cleaned approximately every 18 months by a qualified servicer. An excessive amount of lint build-up in these areas could result in inefficient drying and possible FIRE. See the Care and Cleaning section of the Use & Care instructions.
CAUTION
Unless otherwise directed, disconnect electrical current before servicing.

WASHER DIAGNOSTIC MODE
Washer Diagnostic Mode Tests
All tests should be performed with an empty tub. Any items left in the tub will cause a serious out-of-balance situation and potential damage to the washer as it reaches higher spin speeds.

Table Caption: This table outlines diagnostic programs for a washing machine, detailing the activated components and test descriptions for each program, ranging from basic rinse and spin to specific soil level and fabric type cycles. It also includes a program for checking error code history.
Understanding Error Codes
In Washer Diagnostic Mode, error codes are indicated by a pattern of blinking RED and GREEN LEDs above the WASHER START|PAUSE button. The LEDs will blink first RED then GREEN, to provide the two digit error code number. These blinking lights can then be translated into error codes that are listed in the chart on the following page and can help pinpoint the problem with the washing machine. The number of times a light blinks corresponds with the digit or character it represents. Blinking
