OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR DRYER
GENERAL OPERATION
This dryer is activated by an infrared sensor. The dryer operates as long as hands are below
the nozzle. There is a maximum 35-second running time with a safety over-ride feature if hands
are not removed. Each component used in your dryer has been designed to provide years of
trouble-free service. 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.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING:
IF THE DRYER WON’T TURN ON:
Check electrical service, circuit breaker. Make sure proper voltage is being supplied to the
dryer. Check for loose or disconnected terminals to sensor. INCREASE sensitivity (FIgure 3) by
inserting a flat-blade screwdriver through the hole and into the pot to CAREFULLY turn the
adjustment pot located on the sensor CLOCKWISE 1/3 turn MAX. If necessary, replace sensor.
IF DRYER WILL NOT SHUT OFF:
Make certain black foam is attached to lens and lens is clean. If damaged, replace. DECREASE
sensitivity (FIgure 3) by inserting a flat-blade screwdriver through the hole and into the pot to
CAREFULLY turn the adjustment pot located on the sensor COUNTER-CLOCKWISE, 1/3 turn
MAX. If necessary, replace sensor.
GXT ONLY - IF COLD AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE:
Turn off breaker for 30 seconds to reset thermostat. If necessary, inspect heating element by
unfastening blower housing from backplate (3 screws). Remove heating element from blower
housing to inspect for damage. Replace if necessary.
IF NO AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE:
If the dryer also trips the circuit breaker, replace the motor/blower assembly by unfastening the
blower housing from the backplate (3 screws) and remove the inlet shield. Otherwise, replace
the sensor.
