BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
Your dryer is capable of diagnosing a number of its own problems. It will sound a
continuous series of beeps and display a code when it has a problem that you can
correct yourself. All control panel lights will turn off and a code will be displayed to
inform you what the problem is. To stop the beeps sounding, touch any button on
the control panel. Do not try to continue your drying cycle once you stop the beeps.
You must address the problem the dryer is alerting you to.
