Testing
Dryer
Heating
GAS MODELS
Close the dryer door, press the POWER button to turn
the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. When
the dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main burner.
NOTE: if all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas
igniter may turn off before the main burner ignites. If
this happens, the igniter will reattempt
gas ignition until
all the air is purged from the gas line.
ELECTRIC MODELS
Close the dryer door, press the POWER button 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 ex-
haust duct approximately
2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer.
Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed
0.6 inches (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 four leveling feet are
firmly on the floor.
Checking
Venting
The vent duct should be checked for lint buildup
and
cleaned
at least once per year. If any noticeable
reduction
in drying
performance
occurs, check the duct
for obstructions
and blockages.
