WARNING: To avoid fire hazard, do not dry articles containing foam rubber or similar texture materials.
Do not put into this dryer flammable items such as baby bed mattresses, throw rugs, undergarments
(brassieres, etc.) and other items which use rubber as padding or backing. Rubber easily oxidizes causing
excessive heat and possible fire. These items should be air dried.
WARNING: Synthetic solvent fumes from drycleaning machines create acids when drawn through the
dryer. These fumes cause rusting of painted parts, pitting of bright or plated parts, and completely
removes the zinc from galvanized parts, such as the tumbler basket. If drycleaning machines are in the
same area as the tumbler, the tumbler's make-up air must come from a source free of solvent fumes.
WARNING: Do not operate without guards in place.
WARNING: Check the lint trap often and clean as needed but at least a minimum of once per day.
WARNING: Alterations to equipment may not be carried out without consulting with the factory and
only by a qualified engineer or technician. Only Manufacturer’s parts may be used.
WARNING: Remove clothes from dryer as soon as it stops. This keeps wrinkles from setting in and
reduces the possibility of spontaneous combustion.
WARNING: Be safe - shut main electrical power and gas supply off externally before attempting
service.
WARNING: Never use drycleaning solvents, gasoline, kerosene, or other flammable liquids in the dryer.
FIREANDEXPLOSION WILLOCCUR. NEVERPUT FABRICSTREATEDWITH THESELIQUIDS
INTOTHEDRYER.NEVERUSETHESELIQUIDSNEARTHEDRYER.
WARNING: Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated
with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.
WARNING: Never let children play near or operate the dryer. Serious injury could occur if a child
should crawl inside and the dryer is turned on.
WARNING: Never tumble fiberglass materials in the dryer unless the labels say they are machine
dryable. Glass fibers break and can remain in the dryer. These fibers cause skin irritation if they
become mixed with other fabrics.
WARNING: Before operating gas ignition system - purge air from natural gas or propane gas lines
per manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply
before attempting any user maintenance other than cleaning the lint trap. Turning the controls to the

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION OF DRYER
RULESFORSAFE
OPERATIONOFDRYER 1. Be sure your dryer is installed properly in accordance with the
recommendedinstructions.
2. CAUTION
Be safe—shut main electrical power supply and gas supply off
externallybeforeattemptingservice.
3. CAUTION
Never use drycleaning solvents: gasoline, kerosene, or other
flammable liquids in the dryer. Fire and explosion will
occur.
Never put fabrics treated with these liquids into the dryer.
Never use these liquids near the dryer.
Always keep the lint screen clean.
Never use heat to dry items that contain plastic, foam or
sponge rubber, or rags coated with oils, waxes or paints. The
heat may damage the material or create a fire hazard. Rubber
easily oxidizes, causing excessive heat and possible fire.
Never dry the above items in the dryer.
4. Never let children play near or operate the dryer. Serious
injury will occur if a child should crawl inside and the dryer
is turned on.
5. Never use dryer door opening and top as a step stool.
6. Readandfollow manufacturer'sinstructionson packages of
laundry and cleaning aids. Heed any warnings or precautions.
7. Nevertumble fiberglass materials in the dryer unless the
labels say they are machine dryable. Glass fibers break and
can remain in the dryer and could cause skin irritation if they
become mixed into other fabrics.
8. Reference
Lightingandshut-downinstructionsandwiringdiagramsare
located on the rear wall of the dryer cabinet.
9. The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it
will be exposed to water and/or weather.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS
ENERGYSAVINGTIPS
ABOVE2,000FEET
(610 M)
1. Installdryerso that youcanuse short, straightventing.
Turned elbows and long vent tubing tend to increase drying
time.Longerdryingtimemeanstheuseofmoreenergyand
higheroperatingcosts.
2. Operate dryer using full-size loads. Very large loads use
extra energy. Very small loads waste energy.
3. Dry light-weight fabrics separately from heavy fabrics. You
will use less energy and get more even drying results by
drying fabrics of similar weight together.
4. Clean the lint screen area daily. A clean lint screen helps
give faster, more economical drying.
5. Do not open the dryer door while drying. You let warm air
escape from the dryer into the room.
6. Unload the dryer as soon as it stops. This saves having to re-
start your dryer to remove wrinkles.
NOTE
It is best to run a properly sized bag of rags and/or old
towels through one or two cycles prior to drying in service.
Thisprocess willremove anyfilms orresidualcoatings left
bythemanufacturingprocess.
CAUTION
Syntheticsolventfumesfromdrycleaningmachinescreate
acids when drawn through the dryer. These acid fumes
causerustingofpaintedparts,pittingofbrightplatedparts
and completely removes the zinc from galvanized metal
parts,such asthe tumblerbasket.
If the dry cleaning machines are in the same area as the
tumbler, then the tumbler make-up air must come from a
source free of solvent fumes.
ELEVATIONSABOVE 2,000FEET(610 M)
Input ratings shown on the rating plate (serial tag) are for elevations
up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610 m),
rating should be reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet (305 m)
above sea level.

To help you troubleshoot the dryer, listed below are the most
common reasons for service calls and some answers to the
problems. Before you call service, please review the following
items:
1. Is the door completely closed?
2. Are the controls set to the “ON” or “I” position?
3. Did you push the “start”control?
4. Has a fuse blown or a circuit breaker tripped?
5. Arethefusestight?
6. Check for low voltage.
1. Isthedryer set for“coolingtime”rather than“drying
time”?
2. Are the gas valves in the dryer and the valve on the main gas
lineturnedon?
3. Check for low or intermittant gas pressure.
1. Timed cycle—Did you allow enough heating time before the
cool-down part of the cycle?
2. Is the lint screen blocked?
3. Is the exhaust duct to the outside clean and not blocked?(A
blocked exhaust will cause slow drying and other
problems.)
The dryer has a safety device which automatically shuts off the gas
if the burner fails to light in a short time. If this happens, turn the
dryer off. Check and see if the manual gas valve is open. Wait 5
minutes for the safety device to reset. Then reset the dryer controls.
If the dryer still fails to heat, call for service. All panels, covers and
doors must be in place and closed before starting the dryer.
VERYIMPORTANT
When calling the factory for service, always refer to the
modelnumberandserialnumber.

NOTE: Some models are equipped with a dual ignition system.
The dual ignition system contains two direct spark
ignition modules in parallel. Each module has its own
flame sense circuit and acts independently of the other.
If either bonnet limit thermostat opens because of high
heat or flame impingement, the entire ignition system
will shut down.
1. When a call for heat is received from the control supplying
24VAC to the ignition control module, the pre-purge delay
timer begins. This delay time allows any air/sediment to be
ejected prior to burner ignition. Following the pre-purge delay
period, the gas valve is energized and the spark ignitor sparks
for the trial for ignition period.
2. When a flame is detected during the trial for ignition period, the
spark ignitor shuts off and the gas valve remains energized.
3. If no flame is detected by the flame sense circuit, the ignition
control module will go into safety lockout. The valve will be
turned off immediately. If the module has multiple retries and
no flame is detected, the gas valve is de-energized and the
module goes into an interpurge delay. After this delay, the
module will attempt another trial for ignition period. This will
continue until the number of retries has been used up. At that
time, the module will go into safety lockout.
4. Recovery from safety lockout requires one of the following:
a. A manual reset by opening and closing the loading door.
b. After one hour if the control thermostat is still calling for
heat, the module will automatically reset and the trial for
ignition period will start over.
5. Opening the loading door will cause the flame to extinguish.
Closing the door and starting the dryer will restart the trial for
ignition period.
6. Once the control thermostat has been satisfied and/or the
drying timer has been timed out, the ignition control
module(s) will be de-energized, the gas valve(s) will be de-
energized and the flames will extinguish.
7. The machine will continue to run in a cooldown mode without
heat. This process will cool the load to the touch and help to
eliminate wrinkling.
