Fire Suppression System Maintenance
Test
To ensure proper operation, the fire suppression
system must be tested every three months. If the
system test does not perform as indicated:
1. Discontinue use of the tumble dryer.
2. Refer to Troubleshooting Manual or contact a
qualified service person.
3. Restore the fire suppression system to proper
working order before using tumble dryer.
Create a maintenance record with a check box for
pass, the date and a signature. Store this record in an
area where it will not be damaged, but is easily
accessible to person performing tests.
NOTE: Failure to maintain the fire suppression
system will void the tumble dryer warranty.
NOTE: The auxiliary output is activated during the
fire suppression system maintenance test sequence.
Consider this fact prior to testing the system every
three months. (Example – If the external system
uses the auxiliary output to call the fire
department, inform the fire department before and
after the fire suppression system maintenance test.)
IMPORTANT: For Electric Models only –
Whenever the machine has been internally sprayed
with water, the heating elements must be
completely dry before you run the machine with
heat. To fully dry the heating elements, run the
machine WITHOUT HEAT for a minimum of sixty
(60) minutes before resuming normal operation.
CAUTION
Clean up any water spilled during testing
to avoid personal injury.
