Grounding Instructions
• The dryer unit must be grounded. In the event of 
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will 
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a 
path of least resistance for electric current. The 
dryer unit is equipped with a cord having an 
equipment-grounding conductor and a three 
prong grounding plug. The plug must be plugged 
into an appropriate outlet that is properly 
installed and grounded in accordance with all 
local codes and ordinances.
• DO NOT modify the plug provided with the 
dryer unit – if it will not fit the outlet, have a 
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not 
meet the above specifications and/or if you are 
not sure the laundry room has an effective 
ground, have a qualified electrician or your local 
electrical utility company check it and correct 
any problems.
Step 7: Recheck Steps 1-6
Refer to Installer Checklist on the back cover of this 
manual and make sure that dryer is installed correctly.
Step 8: Check Heat Source
Electric Dryers
Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat 
setting (refer to the Operation section). After the dryer 
has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or 
exhaust pipe should be warm.
Gas Dryers
IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted 
by qualified personnel only.
To view the burner flame, remove the lower front 
panel of the dryer.
Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting 
(refer to the Operation section). The dryer will start, 
the igniter will glow red and the main burner will 
ignite. 
IMPORTANT:  If all air is not purged out of gas 
line, gas igniter may go off before gas is ignited. If 
this happens, after approximately two minutes 
igniter will again attempt gas ignition.
IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure 
gas is turned on.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk 
of electric shock. Check with a qualified 
electrician or service person if you are in 
doubt as to whether the dryer unit is 
properly grounded.
