Is the valve open on the gas supply line?

Unusual sounds

Has the dryer had a period of non-use?

If the dryer hasn't been used for a while, there may be a

thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.

Is a coin, button, or paper clip caught between the drum

and front or rear of the dryer?

Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.

Clean out pockets before laundering.

back and side to side?

The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See

"Installation Instructions."

TROUBLESHOOTING

Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too

long, or load is too hot

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor

for a garage installation.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Dryer Results

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with

lint, restricting air movement?

Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the

outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not

feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace

exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See

"Venting Requirements."

Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?

Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

Is the exhaust vent the correct length?

Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many

turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See "Plan Vent

System."

Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?

Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below

45ºF (7ºC)?
