The Check Vent Light is located on the console of the dryer and indicates that dryer airflow is restricted. Look behind the dryer and ensure that the venting is not crushed. Allow a minimum of 4" between the dryer and the wall when reinstalling the unit to prevent further crushing. Check that the vent hood on the exterior of the house is not clogged or being blocked by landscaping. Use as few 90° elbows in the vent system as possible; each bend and curve reduces airflow.
