J. 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.
1. Turn on electric power to the dryer.
2. Make sure the main door is closed and the lint drawer is securely in place.
3. Microprocessor (computer) system operational test -- to start dryer...
a. Display will read "FILL."
b. Press the "E" (preprogrammed) cycle key on the touch pad of the keyboard.
c. L.E.D. display will quickly read ... "Ld30," "Lc04," and "F180" (unless special programs requested).
These codes mean that the dryer is in the timed mode and will operate with heat of 180º F (Fahrenheit)
for 30 minutes drying time and have a 4-minute cool down period.
d. Dryer will now start and the L.E.D. display will read "Dr30" (dry mode for 30 minutes) and count down in
minutes.
NOTE: The dryer can be stopped at any time by opening main door or by pressing the
"CLEAR/STOP" key. To restart the dryer, press the "ENTER/START" key or
preprogrammed cycle key (i.e., "E").
NOTE: Pressing touch pad key "A," "B," "C," "D," and "F," will also start the dryer. The six (6) pre-
programmed drying cycles ("A" through "F") have been stored in the microprocessor
(computer's) memory. Refer to the computer programming manual supplied with dryer for
these preprogrammed cycles.
4. Check to insure that the basket (tumbler) starts in the clockwise (CW) direction. Additionally, check the
direction of the blower motor impellor (fan) to insure that impellor (blower/fan) rotates in the clockwise
(CW) direction as viewed from the front. If it is, the phasing is correct. If the phasing is incorrect, reverse
two (2) of the leads at L1, L2, or L3 of the power supply connections made to the dryer.
IMPORTANT: Dryer blower motor impellor and fan as viewed from the front must turn in the clock-
wise (CW) direction, otherwise dryer efficiency will drastically be reduced and pre-
mature component failure can result.
