SERVICE & MAINTENANCE OF YOUR DRYER
Each component used in your dryer has been designed to provide years of trouble free ser-
vice. However, if trouble should develop, it can normally be located by visual examination.
Removal or replacement of most parts is simple and can be done without special tools.
IF COLD AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE:
Remove the cover and check the heating element. If the element is broken or burned out,
replace it.
IF NO AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE AND HEATING ELEMENT GLOWS:
Remove the cover and check to see that the fan revolves freely. Check and replace motor,
if required.
IF NO AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE AND HEATING ELEMENT IS NOT IN OPERATION:
Check the thermostat. Assuming the thermostat is okay the timer or sensor should be
replaced.
IF DRYER WILL NOT SHUT OFF:
Make certain the push button returns out fully after being pushed in and released. If button
moves freely, replace the timer.
AUTOMATIC DRYERS:
Check that circuit board and sensor are clean from dust and lint (carefully dust off). Make
sure plastic window is clean on both sides. Foam piece on window must remain intact. When
replacing dryer cover, be careful not to damage circuit board or sensor.
This dryer is activated by an infrared sensor. Hand dryers operate as long as hands are below
nozzle. There is a maximum 80 second running time with a safety over-ride feature, if hands
are not removed. Hair dyrers turn on for 80 seconds by waving hands under the nozzle.
Sensitivity is adjustable (Figure 3) by CAREFULLY turning the adjustment pot located on the
sensor. Use a small flat blade screw driver. 1/3 Turn MAX. Turn CLOCKWISE to INCREASE
sensitivity, COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to DECREASE sensitivity.
FOR ANY OTHER PROBLEM, CONTACT FACTORY FOR ASSISTANCE.
CLEANING - DO NOT spray cleaning solvents thru dryer vents. DO NOT use abrasive, chlo-
rinated, or highly alkaline cleaners. DO NOT use oil based cleaners.
SEMI-ANNUALLY remove the cover and clean all lint and dust from the mechanism, inside
of cover, and plastic window.
Clean cover with a mild soap or detergent and warm water, using a soft cloth or sponge.
