Quick Start: 1. Add items and close the door. 2. Press Power to wake up the display. 3. Select a dry cycle or press Timed Dry, adjust time, then press Temp for temperature. 4. Press Start/Pause.
Dryer Features: Includes various cycles like Mixed Loads, Cottons, Heavy Duty, Towels, Casuals, Active Wear, Sanitize, Quick Dry, Delicates, Dewrinkle, Warm Up, Air Fluff, and Rack Dry. Options include Temp (High, Medium, Low, No Heat), Level (Ex Dry, Dry, Damp), Damp Alert, Timed Dry, eDry, My Cycle, Extended Tumble, Delay Dry, Start/Pause, Lock, and Signal. The display shows time remaining, status lights for controls locked, end of cycle, clean filter, low air, eDry, Temp, Level, Damp Alert, Timed Dry, My Cycle, and Delay Dry.

Troubleshooting and error codes
| Fault Code | Description | Trigger Condition | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| E00 | No Fault | - - - | There are no faults to display. |
| E01 | Inlet Thermistor Short | When the inlet thermistor readings exceed the minimum threshold (0.2V) for 5 minutes, an inlet thermistor fault is set. | Check Resistance, connector and wiring. Replace thermistor if necessary. |
| E02 | Outlet Thermistor Short | When the outlet thermistor readings exceed the minimum threshold (0.2V) for 5 minutes, an outlet thermistor fault is set. | Check Resistance, connector and wiring. Replace thermistor if necessary. |
| E03 | Inlet Thermistor Open | When the inlet thermistor readings exceed the minimum threshold (4.8V) for 5 minutes, an inlet thermistor open fault is set. | Check Resistance, connector and wiring. Replace thermistor if necessary. |
| E04 | Outlet Thermistor Open | When the outlet thermistor readings exceed the minimum threshold (4.8V) for 5 minutes, an outlet thermistor open fault is set. | Check Resistance, connector and wiring. Replace thermistor if necessary. |
| E05 | EEPROM CRC Fault | Bad CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) detected when reading a page from EEPROM. | Check and replace user interface board if necessary. |
| E06 | Stuck Button | If a button is depressed for 1 minute, it will be logged as a stuck button. | Check Start and power buttons. Check capacitive touch board. Replace user interface board if necessary. |
| E07 | Mis-wired | L1 and N mis-wired (L1 and N AC input > 162V). | Check L1 and Neutral Voltage. L1 and Neutral needs to be rewired if necessary. |
| E08 | Door Latch Stuck | Five cycles are run and door signal in the hardware door switch detection circuit has not opened. | If fault is not cleared after the door is opened, check the door switch, main board or harness. Replace main board if necessary. |
| E09 | Door Signal Stuck | Five cycles are run and door signal in the hardware door switch detection circuit has not opened. | If fault is not cleared after the door is opened, check the door switch, main board or harness. Replace main board if necessary. |
| E11 | Heating Fault | Within 15 minutes of the heating process, the temperature rise has not reached 122°F (50°C) and the minimum temperature difference is not more than 41°F (5°C) during this period. | Check both heaters 1 and 2 and input voltage. Check harness and connector. Replace main board in necessary. |
| E12 | Communication Fault | Three (3) communication faults between main and user interface boards. | Check harness, connector and DC input voltage to the user interface board. If good, replace the user interface board. If User Interface (UI) board is good, replace main board. |
