dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is

clean. The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust outlet

and inside the exhaust hood. Make sure the vent is secured to

exhaust hood with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.

2. Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent.

Make sure dryer is level.

With dryer in final position place level on top of the dryer, first

side to side; then front to back. If the dryer is not level, adjust

the legs of the dryer up or down until the dryer is level.

2. Plug in dryer or reconnect power.

3. Check dryer operation (some accumulated time may be on

the timer on mechanical timer models due to factory testing).

Push START/RESTART button. Using a high heat cycle (not

the air cycle), let the dryer run for at least five minutes. Dryer

will stop when time is used up. Make sure the dryer turns off.

NOTE: Dryer door must be closed for dryer to operate. When

door is open, dryer stops, but timer continues to run. To

restart dryer, close door and push START/RESTART button.

4. If drying time is too long, make sure lint screen is clean.

5. Now start the dryer and allow it to complete a full heat cycle

(not air cycle) to make sure it is working properly.
