Electrical Shock Hazard
Unplug dryer before removing dryer panels.
Wear gloves when handling dryer parts.
Make sure door switch wires are not touching the dryer drum
before closing the top.
Failure to do so can result in death, electrical shock, or
serious cuts.
4. Remove two internal screws from front
panel flanges (near top front corners). Lift
front panel slightly, lifting off lower clips
(see lower clip inset of View B). Slowly
pull front panel forward, disengaging
panel from drum. (Drum will drop slightly.)
5. Move front panel aside and rest edge
against side of dryer. Avoid disconnecting
wire clips (see wire clips inset of View B)
or damaging wires.
6. Remove lint from area shown in "gas
dryer" illustration on page 14 with soft
brush or vacuum cleaner. Avoid damag-
ing wires, funnel, or ignitor.
7. Reassemble in reverse order. Before
closing the top, check the following:
-Drum seal must be flared out (see
drum seal insets of View B) and prop-
erly positioned against panel at back of
drum. Rotate drum counterclockwise
one full turn to check drum seal.
-Belt should be centered and tight on
dryer drum.
-Wire clips which hold the door switch
wires must be anchored in slot in top
of front panel (see wire clips inset of
View B) and along top edge of side
panel. Door wires must not touch drum
when dryer is operating.
8. Replace top panel and lint screen screws.
Top and front panels must be securely in
place before operating dryer.
9. Reconnect power and level dryer again,
if necessary.
