The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:

1. Read ALL "CAUTION," "WARNING," and "DIRECTION" labels attached to the dryer.

located on the back of the dryer control (service) door.

3. Check to assure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer data

label.

4. The sail switch damper assembly was installed and adjusted at the factory prior to shipping.

However, each sail switch adjustment

must be

checked to assure that this important safety

control is functioning.
