Manual
If you need service or assistance,
we suggest you follow these five steps:
1. Before calling for
assistance...
Performance problems often result
from little things you can find and fix your-
self without tools of any kind.
IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT RUN:
• Is the power supply plugged into a live
circuit with the proper voltage?
• Is the door closed tightly?
• Did you push the START Button?
• Have you checked your home's main
fusesor circuitbreaker box?
IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT HEAT:
• The AIR setting is without heat.
• The last minutes of heat settings are with-
out heat.
• Is the gas turned on? If not, turn the Con-
trol Knob to OFF Turn on gas. Wait 5 min-
utes. Reset controls and start.
• An electric dryer uses a circuit breaker
or 2 fuses. If one fuse is blown, the dryer
may run, but not heat.
IF DRYING TIME SEEMS TOO LONG:
• Is the lint screen clean? See page 9 of
this book for cleaning instructions.
• See page 8 of this book and your "Dryer
Guide:
