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.
Test Dryer Heating
Gas Models
Close the dryer door and press the Power button
to turn the dryer on. Press the Time Dry and
Start/Pause buttons to start the test. When the
dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main
burner.
• 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 after approximately two minutes.
Electric Models
Close the dryer door and press the Power button
to turn the dryer on. Press the Time Dry and
Start/Pause buttons to start the test. 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
inch (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 in firm contact with the floor.
Test Exhaust System

appliance, use this test to make sure the condition
