Installation

Grounding Instructions

The dryer unit must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The dryer unit is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a three prong grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment- grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer unit is properly grounded.

W153

DO NOT modify the plug provided with the dryer unit – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not meet the above specifications and/or if you are not sure the laundry room has an effective ground, have a qualified electrician or your local electrical utility company check it and correct any problems.

Step 8: Check Heat Source

Electric Dryers

Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat setting (refer to the Operation section). After the dryer has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or exhaust pipe should be warm.

Gas Dryers

IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted by qualified personnel only.

To view the burner flame, remove the lower front panel of the dryer.

Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting (refer to the Operation section). The dryer will start, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite.

IMPORTANT: If all air is not purged out of gas line, gas igniter may go off before gas is ignited. If this happens, after approximately two minutes igniter will again attempt gas ignition.

IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure gas is turned on.
