Part 2 INITIAL STEPS FOR INSTALLING YOUR DRYER STEP 6: Preparation of the Dryer. Prior to first use of this appliance, use an allpurpose cleaning product, or a solution of detergent and water, with a damp clothe to remove from the inside of the dryer drum/drying compartment any dust or dirt that may have accumulated inside of the dryer. Plug in your dryer after reviewing the following parts on your dryer's Electrical Requirements. STEP 7: Confirming Heat Source Operation. Confirming Heat Source in Gas Dryers Close the door to the dryer drum/drying compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. After the dryer starts, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite. Warning: If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas igniter may go off before the gas and the main burner have ignited. If this happens, the igniter will re-attempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes. Confirming Heat Source in Electric Dryers Close the door to the dryer drum/drying compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. The exhaust air or the exhaust pipe should be warm after the dryer has been operating for three minutes. STEP 8: Dryer Airflow. Effective dryer operation requires appropriate dryer 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 inches (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked with the dryer running with no load.

INITIAL STEPS FOR INSTALLING YOUR DRYER
10
Prior to first use of this appliance, use an all-
purpose cleaning product, or a solution of detergent
and water, with a damp clothe to remove from the
inside of the dryer drum/drying compartment any
dust or dirt that may have accumulated inside of the
dryer.
Plug in your dryer after reviewing the
following parts on your dryer’s Electrical
Requirements.
STEP 6:
Preparation of the Dryer.
Effective dryer operation requires appropriate dryer
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
inches (1.5 cm).
The dryer should be checked with
the dryer running with no load.
STEP 8:
Dryer Airflow.
Confirming Heat Source in Gas Dryers
Close the door to the dryer drum/drying
compartment and, after completing all steps in this
manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the
dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in
the operating instructions that accompany the dryer.
After the dryer starts, the igniter will glow red and
the main burner will ignite.
Warning:
If all air is not purged from the gas line,
the gas igniter may go off before the gas and the
main burner have ignited.
If this happens, the
igniter will re-attempt gas ignition after
approximately two minutes.
Confirming Heat Source in Electric Dryers
Close the door to the dryer drum/drying
compartment and, after completing all steps in this
manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the
dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in
the operating instructions that accompany the dryer.
The exhaust air or the exhaust pipe should be warm
after the dryer has been operating for three minutes.
