feel heat inside the dryer, shut the dryer
off for 5 minutes. Then check that:

To visually check gas ignition and
correct operation of the burner (mostly
blue flame) remove the lower front panel
(trained installer only) to view the burner.
To check the gas manifold pressure
(trained installer only), attach a pressure
guage to the auxilliary pressure tap on
the front of the gas valve. If the manifold
pressure is not in accordance with the
Technical Specification, check the gas
supply pressure during operation. If the
supply pressure is correct, the valve
must be replaced, since it is factory set.
It has a seal to identify unauthorized
adjustment.
WARNING – Replace lower front panel
immediately after these checks.
If dryer makes an unusual noise, check
that dryer is level.

supply line to the "open" position.

appears, shut off gas valve control and
re-make connections. Then check for
gas leaks again.
