3. Heat Circuit Operational Test
a. Gas Models
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.
The dryer is equipped with a Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system which has internal diagnostics. If
ignition is not established after three (3) attempts, the heat circuit DSI module will lockout until it is
manually reset. To reset the DSI system, open and close the main door and restart the dryer (press
desired temperature selection).
