Operating Instructions ________________
The dryer is available for use when the appropriate side of
the microprocessor display reads “0 minutes” and the
amount needed to start the dryer (i.e., “25”). Once the load
has been put into the dryer and the main door is closed, start
the dryer as follows:
• Insert the proper number of coins into the coin acceptor.
Once the correct “Amount To Start” has been inserted,
the display will read “SELECT CYCLE”.
• Determine fabric setting (selection).
Once the fabric temperature setting (selection) has been
determined, start the dryer by pressing the fabric setting
key.
• The dryer will now start, and the display will read the
setting and the time vended.
• The cycle time will count down until the drying and
cooling cycles are completed.
• Upon completion of the drying and cooling cycles, the
dryer will shut off.
The dryer tumbler can be stopped at any time by opening the
main door. To restart dryer, shut the main door and press
desired setting.
NOTE: When a cycle is interrupted by opening the main
door, cycle time will continue to count downward,
regardless if the door is open or closed.
Selection (setting) changes can be made at any time during
the drying cycle.
Shutdown Instructions ________________
If the dryer is to be shutdown (taken out of service) for a
period of time, the following must be performed:
Discontinue power to the dryer either at the external disconnect
switch or the circuit breaker.
Discontinue the fuel supply: close external gas shutoff valve.
Also close two internal gas shutoff valves.
Service / Parts Information ___________
Service
Service must be performed by a qualified trained technician,
service agency, or gas supplier. If service is required, contact
the Maytag distributor from whom the equipment was
purchased. If the distributor cannot be contacted or is
unknown, contact the Maytag Co. for a distributor in your area.
NOTE: When contacting the Maytag Co., be sure to give
them the correct model number and serial number so that
your inquiry is handled in an expeditious manner.
Parts
Replacement parts should be purchased from the distributor
from whom the Maytag equipment was purchased. If the
distributor cannot be contacted or is unknown, contact the
Maytag Co. for a distributor in your area.
NOTE: When ordering replacement parts from the Maytag
distributor or the Maytag Co. be sure to give them the
correct model number and serial number so that your
parts order can be processed in an expeditious manner.
Routine Maintenance __________________
A program should be established for the inspection and
cleaning of lint in the burner area, exhaust ductwork, and
area around the back of the dryer. The frequency of inspection
and cleaning can best be determined from experience at
each location.
Exhaust duct outlet should be checked periodically for
blockages, and if any found, removed.
Cleaning
A program and/or schedule should be established for
periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various
areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork system.
The frequency of cleaning can best be determined from
experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency
is dependent upon proper airflow. The accumulation of lint
can restrict this airflow.
NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average
usage, which is considered 6 to 8 operational (running)
hours per day.
Every 6 months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any
lint buildup.
