ATIME DISPLAY

When a cycle is selected, the display will indicate the default time for that cycle including selected options or adjustments. In AUTO DRY cycles, the time remaining will be estimated and may change during the cycle, depending on the condition of the load. In TIMED DRY, the time displayed will be the actual time remaining.

BCHECK FILTER LIGHT

The CHECK FILTER light will blink before each load, as a reminder to check the lint filter. Always clean the lint filter before every cycle.

CCYCLE STATUS INDICATORS

This portion of the display shows which stage of the drying cycle is currently under way (DRY, COOLING, or WRINKLE GUARD).

DCHECK VENT INDICATOR

(DUCT BLOCKAGE SENSING SYSTEM)

The CHECK VENT duct blockage sensing system detects and alerts you to blockages in the ductwork that reduce exhaust flow from the dryer. This light does not indicate any problems with your dryer. If this light blinks, it indicates that your home’s exhaust system has a serious restriction, which is not covered by your dryer’s warranty. Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME®for information regarding duct cleaning services offered through Sears (refer to page 29).

ECONTROL LOCK

When CONTROL LOCK is set, all controls are disabled except for the POWER button, which will allow the dryer to be shut off. When the controls are locked, the dryer can not be operated until the CONTROL LOCK is turned off. If the controls are locked, the CONTROL LOCK LED will illuminate and “CL” will alternate with the cycle time in the display.

FADD WATER INDICATOR

If the steam feeder runs low on water, the ADD WATER light will blink and the cycle will cancel. Refill the steam feeder and then restart the cycle (refer to page 27).
