INITIAL STEPS FOR INSTALLING YOUR DRYER
Prior
to
the first
use
of this
appliance,
use
all-
purpose
cleaning products
or a
solution of
detergent
and water, with
damp
clothes
to
remove
from the
inside of the
dryer drum/drying
compartment
any
dust
or
dirt that may have accumulated the inside of
the
dryer. Plug-in
your
dryer
after
reviewing
the
following
parts
on
your
dryer's
Electrical
Requirements.
Effective
dryer operation requires appropriate dryer
airflow. The
adequacy
of the airflow
can
be
measured
by evaluating
the static pressure. Static
pressure in the exhaust duct
can
be measured with
a
manometer,
placed
on
the exhaust duct
approximately
2 ft.
(60.9 cm)
from the
dryer.
Static
pressure in the exhaust duct should
not
exceed 0.6
inches
(1.5 cm).
The
dryer
should be checked with
the
dryer running
with
no
load.
