..........Operating Instructions

Normal Operating Sounds

You may or may not hear the following sounds from your new
dryer:

A. SUSPENSION ROLLERSThe dryer drum is supported

by a set of suspension rollers. At times there may be a

thumping or rolling sound when the dryer starts. This may

happen if the dryer has not been in use for a period of

time, or after a heavy load has remained in the dryer drum
for an extended period, creating a temporary flat spot on

the edge of the roller. The noise should dissipate as the

dryer operates and the flat spots smooth out.

B. AIR FLOW SYSTEM Your dryer is equipped with a high

volume air handling system. In some installations there

may be some sounds associated with air movement
throughout the dryer. This is normal and can vary with load
size and type.

Do not continue to use the dryer if you hear squeaking,
grinding, rubbing or other unusual noises. This could be a

sign of mechanical breakdown and lead to fire or serious
injury. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

If installed in a closet the dryer will not function correctly with the door in the closed position.This condensation process requires
access to cool air from the room. The unit must only be operated with the door in the open position to allow correct air circulation.
