• Wet
  The load is still wet and/or the cycle just started.

• Damp
  The load still has moisture remaining, a good point in the cycle to remove a garment to air dry or iron.

• Cool Down
  The dryer has finished drying with heat and is now tumbling without heat to cool it down and reduce wrinkling.

• End
  This indicates that the selected cycle has ended and the load may be removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle Prevent has been selected, the dryer may continue to tumble the load, even if “End” is displayed.

Check Vent
The Check Vent indicator is a feature available for Sensor Cycles only. This alert will show the status of airflow through the dryer and the dryer vent system for the dryer’s life. During the sensing phase at the beginning of the cycle if it detects a blocked vent or low pressure it will display “Check Vent”. Clean lint screen or vent for better performance. This light will stay on for the entire cycle. Refer to the online
“Troubleshooting” section for potential solutions to the issue. The light will be cleared upon completion of the cycle, touching Power, or opening the door. It will continue to illuminate during the cycle until the vent is cleared.
NOTE: The dryer will continue to operate even while the indicator is lit, but poor airflow can impact dry times and overall performance.
