Normal Operating Sounds
You may or may not hear the following sounds from your
new dryer:
A. SUSPENSION ROLLERS The 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 fl at
spot on the edge of the roller. The noise should dissipate
as the dryer operates and the fl at spots smooth out.
B. REVERSING-ACTION TUMBLE SYSTEM You will hear
the intermittent sound of the dryer stopping, momentarily
pausing, then restarting in the opposite direction.
C. 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.
CAUTION
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 fi re or serious
injury. Contact a qualifi ed technician immediately.
IMPORTANT
If installed in a closet the dryer will not function correctly with the closet 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.
