Operating Instructions

Normal Operating Sounds

You may or may not hear the following sounds 

from your new dryer:

A.  SUSPENSION ROLLERS

 The dryer 

drum is supported by a set of suspen-

sion rollers. At times there may be a 

thumping or rolling sound when the dryer 

starts. This may happen if the dryer has 

not been in use for a period of time, or 

after a heavy load has remained in the 

dryer drum for an extended period, cre-

ating a temporary flat spot on the edge 

of the roller. The noise should dissipate 

as the dryer operates and the flat spots 

smooth out.

B.  AIR FLOW SYSTEM

 Your dryer is 

equipped with a high volume air handling 

system. In some installations there may 

be some sounds associated with air 

movement throughout the dryer. This is 

normal and can vary with load size and 

type.

CAUTION

Do not continue to use the dryer if you hear squeaking, grinding, rubbing or other unusual 

noises. This could be a sign of mechanical breakdown and lead to fire or serious injury.  

Contact a qualified technician immediately.

IMPORTANT

If installing the dryer in a closet, the closet door must remain open while the dryer is running 

to allow correct air circulation. This condensation process requires access to cool air from  

the room.
