| The display shows "d907'd95" | • The duct work is about 90%-95% blocked. ("d90" or "d95" error code displayed 2 hours only) • House exhaust system blocked. | • Do not use the dryer until the exhaust system has been cleaned and/or repaired. Using the dryer with a severely restricted exhaust is dangerous and could result in a fire or other property damage. • Check the outside dryer vent while the dryer is operating to make sure there is strong airflow. • If the exhaust system is extremely long, have it repaired or rerouted. • Keep the area around the dryer clean and free of clutter. • Check vent hood for damage or lint clogging. • Make sure the area around the vent hood is clear. |
