For gas dryers, make sure that the valve on the gas supply line is
open.
This is normal. The thumping sound should diminish after a few
minutes of use.
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects. Clean
out pockets before laundering.
The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the Installation
Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in firm contact with the
floor.
When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to vibrate.

On gas dryers, you may hear the gas valve clicking as it opens and
closes. This is normal.
Clean lint screen before each load.
Run the dryer on Air Only for 5–10 minutes. Hold your hand under
the outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not
feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust
vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation
Instructions.
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the Installation

See "Level Dryer" in the Installation Instructions.
Select the correct temperature for the types of garments being
dried. See "Cycle Guide. "
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45ºF (7ºC).

of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum of 1" (25 mm)
of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the dryer requires
5" (127 mm). See the Installation Instructions.
