Preoperational Test ___________________
All dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving
the factory. However, a preoperational test should be
performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible
that adjustments have changed in transit or due to marginal
location (installation) conditions.
Turn on electric power to the dryer.
Refer to the Operating Instructions for starting your particular
model dryer.
Gas Dryers
Open all shutoff valves.
When a gas dryer is first started (during initial start-up), it has
a tendency not to ignite on the first ignition attempt. This is
because the gas supply piping is filled with air, so it may take
a few minutes for the air to be purged from the lines.
Note
!
During the purging period, check to be sure that
all gas shutoff valves are open.
A gas pressure test should be taken at the gas valve pressure
tap of each dryer to ensure that the water column pressure is
correct and consistent.
Note
!
Water column pressure requirements (measured
at the pressure tap of the gas valve body) must be
verified.
Important
!
In most cases there is no regulator provided in an
L.P. dryer. The water column pressure must be
regulated at the source (L.P. tank), or an external regulator
must be added to each dryer.
Safety Related Circuits
Make a complete operational check of all safety related
circuits:
• Door Switch(es)
• Hi-Limit Thermostats
• Sail Switch
Make a complete operational check of all operating controls.
Tumbler Coating
The tumbler is treated with a protective coating. We suggest
dampening old garments or cloth material with a solution of
water and nonflammable mild detergent and tumbling them
in the tumbler to remove this coating.
Microprocessor Programs/Selections
Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been
preprogrammed by the factory with the most commonly used
parameter (program) selections. If computer program
changes are required, refer to the computer programming
manual which was shipped with the dryer.

Preoperational Instructions __________
Important
!
For more detailed information regarding the
microprocessor controller (computer), refer to the
microprocessor user's manual included with the dryer.
Coin Models
Microprocessor Controller (Computer)
When the microprocessor controller (computer) is in the ready
state, the L.C.D. screen will display "To Start Insert $XX.XX".
Insert coin(s). Once the correct "Amount to Start" has been
inserted, the L.C.D. will display "Select Cycle".
Select temperature by pressing WHITES / COLORS, PERM
PRESS, OR DELICATES. The cycle will start and the L.C.D.
will display the Dry Cycle selected and the remaining time.
The dryer will continue through the drying and cooling cycles,
until the vended time has expired.
Note
!
To stop the dryer, open main door. Continuation of
the cycle will resume only after the door has been
closed and any one of the 3 temperature selections is
pressed.
Shutdown Instructions ________________
If the dryer is to be shutdown (taken out of service) for a
period of time, the following must be performed:
Discontinue power to the dryer either at the external disconnect
switch or the circuit breaker.
Discontinue the heat supply:
Gas Models – Discontinue the gas supply.
Shut off external gas supply shutoff valve.
Shut off internal gas supply shutoff valve located in the gas
valve burner area.
Service/Parts Information ____________
Service
Service must be performed by a qualified trained technician,
service agency, or gas supplier. If service is required, contact
the Maytag distributor from whom the equipment was
purchased. If the distributor cannot be contacted or is
unknown, contact the Maytag Co. for a distributor in your area.
Note
!
When contacting the Maytag Co., be sure to give
them the correct model number and serial
number so that your inquiry is handled in an expeditious
manner.
Parts
Replacement parts should be purchased from the distributor
from whom the Maytag equipment was purchased. If the
distributor cannot be contacted or is unknown, contact the
Maytag Co. for a distributor in your area.
