Troubleshooting Tips

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.

Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

PROPER INSTALLATION

This dryer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. Installation Instructions are included in the back of this manual.

Consumer Support

Properly ground dryer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation Instructions.

Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to water or weather.

Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.

Remove all sharp packing items and dispose of all shipping materials properly.

Exhaust/Ducting

1 Dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside to prevent large amounts of moisture and lint from being blown into the room.

2 Use only rigid metal 4″ diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet. Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4-in diameter ductwork for exhausting to the outdoors. Never use plastic or other combustible, easy-to-puncture ductwork.

For complete details, follow the Installation Instructions.
