STEP 5 Power on (Gas models)
Make sure all gas connections, the exhaust line, and all wiring is connected correctly. Then,
plug the power cord into a power source and check the dryer’s installation and operation
using the nal checklist in Step 7 below.
STEP 6 Final check
When installation is complete, conrm that:
• The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.
• The exhaust ductwork is connected and the joints are taped.
• You have used rigid or stiff-walled exible metal duct material, not plastic exible duct.
• The dryer is level and is sitting rmly on the oor.
• The dryer starts, runs, heats, and shuts off properly.
For gas models:
• The gas is supplied properly with no leaks.
CAUTION
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to
operate on a heat setting will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes,
turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your dryer has been
turned on. To conrm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.
Vent blockage test
After the dryer is installed, start the Vent Blockage Test to check if the duct system is
properly installed. The Vent Blockage Test automatically detects the status of the ducts
and reports any blockage or problems. Proper ducting can reduce drying time and save
energy.
NOTE
The Vent Blockage Test must run with the dryer in a cool state. If the dryer warms up
after the installation check, run the AIR FLUFF cycle for several minutes to reduce its
internal temperature.
Running the vent blockage test
1. Make sure the drum is empty, and then close the door.
(If there are any clothes or other items in the drum, the test will not give accurate
results.)
