For gas dryers, make sure that the valve on the gas supply
line is open.
The water pump or water inlet valve on the dryer is used
during the Steam function. If the dryer has just been installed
or unused for an extended period, the pump or valve may be
louder and run longer. This is normal.
NOTE: The valve may make this noise even with no water
line connected.
This is due to temporary flat spots on the drum rollers.
The thumping sound will diminish after a few minutes.
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.
Clean out pockets before laundering.
The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the
Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in firm

opens and closes. This is normal.

clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with
heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation
Instructions.
