Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch
to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat
setting. The exhaust air should be warm after the
dryer has been operating for 3 minutes.
Checking Airflow
Effective dryer operation requires proper 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 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be
checked while the dryer is running with no load.
Checking Levelness
Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck
the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is
level front to back and side to side, and that
all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK
Once you have completed the installation of the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm proper operation
with the following tests and Duct Condition Testing on the following page.
Electrical Requirements for Electric models Only
•
This dryer must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system, or an
equipment-grounding conductor must
be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding
terminal or lead on the dryer.
Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
•
The dryer has its own power cord that must
be connected to a separate 230-240~ VAC,
50-Hertz, single-phase circuit, fused at 20
amperes (the circuit must be fused on both
sides of the line).
•
If in doubt, a qualified Electrician should
check the compatibility of the electrical
supply and it’s wiring before making any
electrical connection.
