System Check Mode While in Service Mode, pressing the Air Fluff and Signal (+) - 13 Key Membrane Air Fluff and Signal (+) - 15 Key Membrane keys f 3 seconds, will put the dryer into the System Check mode and "SC" will display. The following table lists the various functions based on the keys being pressed. 15 Key Membrane System Check Mode Table Key Pressed: Sens Dry Service Mode This mode provides Service Personnel the ability to verify the operation of the dryer. The Service Mode can be accessed in the middle of any dry cycle. While in the Service Mode, the Technician can start special diagnostic tests such as a System Check Mode, Membrane Pad Check, Display Software Version Number and display Diagnostic/Help code listings.

Diagnostic Tests The following table lists the various tests available while in the Service Mode. Function Perfmed Enable sens dry circuit (sense dry LED) when sht circuit is detected across the sens bars the nmal dry LED will turn on. Cycles the mot relay on/off. When the mot is running the start/pause LED is on. If mot is running, cycles the heater/gas valve on/off. When the heater is regular temp LED is on. View current cycle temperature in Celsius. Diagnostic Codes Code Description Membrane Pad Check The membrane check turns all the embedded LED s on. All the LED s can then be toggled off by pressing the key associated with the LED. 1 While in System Check Mode, pressing the Air Fluff and Sens Dry - 13 Key Air Fluff and Sens Dry - 15 Key 2 Thermist Open Sensed keys f 2 seconds, will start a Membrane Pad Switch Test. To exit the test at any point, press the same keys again f 2 seconds press the OFF key to exit Service Mode. Diagnostic Codes The Diagnostic Codes are identified when the severity level of the abnmality detected is higher and service may be required. When a problem with the dryer is detected a Diagnostic Code is assigned, and can be displayed. The Control Board will not log multiple same codes per cycle; however, it will log as many Diagnostics as possible f the machine to continue running. Accessing Diagnostic Codes with 13 Key Membrane Press Air Fluff and Time (^) to enter Service Mode. Press the Wrinkle Release key to access the Diagnostic Codes. Scroll through the Diagnostic Codes by pressing the Temperature (^) key. The first time the key is pressed the newest code will be displayed. Each additional key press shows the next code. Once all the codes have been displayed a d is displayed and the process repeats. If there are no Diagnostic Codes available, 00 will be displayed f the Diagnostic Code. Accessing Diagnostic Codes with 15 Key Membrane Press Air Fluff and Time (+) to enter Service Mode. Press the Wrinkle Release key to access the Diagnostic Codes. Scroll through the Diagnostic Codes by pressing the Temperature (^). The first time the key is pressed the newest code will be displayed. Each additional key press shows the next code. Once all the codes have been displayed a d is displayed and the process repeats. If there are no Diagnostic Codes available, 00 will be displayed f the Diagnostic Code.
