the code shown in the list of spare parts related
to the appliance.
• It is strictly forbidden to tamper the heating
element in any way.

9.2.1 General Characteristics

For Electrical Models
The heating element converts
electrical power into heat through
the process resistive heating.
Electrical current passing through
the element encounters resistance,
resulting in the heating of the
element.
Wiring Diagram - Electrical Dryer (FFLE3911QW)
In electrical dryers, heat is generated by the heating
element. The element is a coil of heating wire enclosed in
a metal chamber. Electrical current flowing through the coil
creates heat and the air being pulled through the chamber
absorbs this heat and becomes hot.
For Gas Models
Gas models are equipped with gas
valve and burner assemblies. Gas
flowing through the valves are
burned with the help of an igniter
that creates heatand the air being
pulled through the chamber absorbs
this heat and becomes hot.
