complete. Plug in your dryer, and check operation by using the checklist below.
8. (GAS MODELS ONLY)
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat setting
will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure
the gas supply to your dryer has been turned on. In order to confirm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.
