USA ONLYTesting Dryer Heating GAS MODELS Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. When the dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main burner. NOTE: If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas igniter may turn off before the main burner ignites. If this happens, the igniter will reattempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes. ELECTRIC MODELS Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. The exhaust air should be warm after the dryer has been operating for 3 minutes. Checking Airflow Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow. The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load. Checking Levelness Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is level front to back and side to side, and that all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK
Once you have completed the installation of the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm proper operation with the following tests and Duct Condition Testing on the following page. Any installation in a manufactured or mobile home must comply with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards Title 24 CFR,
Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/CSA0Z240 MH and
local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain whether your proposed installation will comply with these standards, please contact a service and installation professional for assistance.

, an innovative sensing system that automatically detects blockages and restrictions in dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint buildup and free of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use. NOTE: When the dryer is first installed, this test should be performed to alert you to any existing problems with the exhaust duct in your home. However, since the test performed during normal operation provides more accurate information on the condition of the exhaust duct than does the installation test, the number of bars displayed during the two tests may not be the same. To activate the fl ow check (Duct condition test) : NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed before proceeding. Then perform the duct condition test below: Press and hold the DAMP DRY BEEP and TEMP. CONTROL buttons at the same time. While holding these buttons, press POWER ON/OFF. The dryer will show lnS in the number display to indicate that it is in duct condition testing mode. FLOW CHECK (DUCT CONDITION TEST) Correct Venting Restricted or Blocked Airflow Avoid long runs or runs with multiple elbows or bends. Check for blockages and lint buildup. Make sure the ductwork is not crushed or restricted.
Press START/PAUSE. The dryer will run for approximately 2 minutes to test for blockages or restrictions to air fl ow in the ductwork. If “YES” is shown in the display, the ductwork is free from blockages or restrictions. If “no” is shown in the display, the dryer ductwork has a blockage that needs to be removed immediately. IMPORTANT: Do NOT interrrupt the test cycle! 24•Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your dryer and your clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters or matches could ignite, causing a fire. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
- Never dry clothes that have been exposed to oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances. Washing clothes will not completely remove oil residues. Failure to obey this warning can result in fire, explosion, or death.
