NOTE: Glass door models have a protective film on the window that should be removed. 10. Read "Dryer Use." 11. Wipe the dryer drum interior thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust. 12. If you live in a hard water area, use of a water softener is recommended to control the buildup of scale through the water system in the dryer. Over time, the buildup of lime scale may clog different parts of the water system, which will reduce product performance. Excessive scale buildup may lead to the need for certain part replacement or repair. 13. Test dryer operation by selecting a Timed Dry heated cycle and starting the dryer. For this test, do not select the Air Only modifier. If the dryer will not start, check the following: • Controls are set in a running or "On" position. • Start button has been pushed firmly. • Dryer is plugged into an outlet and/or electrical supply is on. • Household fuse is intact and tight, or circuit breaker has not tripped. • Dryer door is closed. This dryer automatically runs an installation diagnostic routine at the start of its first cycle. If you receive an "L2" code, there may be a problem with your home power supply keeping the dryer's heater from turning on. See "Troubleshooting." If you receive an "AF" code, your dryer vent may be crushed or blocked. See "Troubleshooting." NOTE: You may notice a burning odor when the dryer is first heated. This odor is common when the heating element is first used. The odor will go away. 18
