Grounding Instructions
The dryer unit must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current. The
dryer unit is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a three
prong grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT
modify the plug provided with the
dryer unit – if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not
meet the above specifications and/or if you are
not sure the laundry room has an effective
ground, have a qualified electrician or your local
electrical utility company check it and correct
any problems.
Step 7: Recheck Steps 1-6
Refer to
Installer Checklist
on the back cover of this
manual and make sure that dryer is installed correctly.
Step 8: Check Heat Source
Electric Dryers
Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat
setting (refer to the
Operation
section). After the dryer
has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or
exhaust pipe should be warm.
Gas Dryers
IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted
by qualified personnel only.
To view the burner flame, remove the lower front
panel of the dryer.
Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting
(refer to the
Operation
section). The dryer will start,
the igniter will glow red and the main burner will
ignite.
IMPORTANT: If all air is not purged out of gas
line, gas igniter may go off before gas is ignited. If
this happens, after approximately two minutes
igniter will again attempt gas ignition.
IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure
gas is turned on.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are in
doubt as to whether the dryer unit is
properly grounded.
