Note
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. Check back draft dampers in the
exhaust ductwork. Inspect and remove any lint
accumulation, which can cause the damper to bind or stick.
A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can
result in slow drying and shutdown of heat circuit safety
switches or thermostats.
When cleaning the dryer cabinet(s), avoid using harsh
abrasives. A product intended for the cleaning of
appliances is recommended.
7 Days After Installation

should be replaced. Complete an operational check of
controls and valves. Complete an operational check of all
safety devices (lint door/drawer switch, door switches, sail
switch, and hi-limit thermostats).
