SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR DRYER
Each component used in your dryer has been designed to provide
years of trouble free service. However, if trouble should develop, it can
normally be located by visual examination. Removal or replacement of
most parts is simple and can be done without special tools.
IF COLD AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE:
Remove the cover and check the heating element. If the element is
broken or burned out, replace it.
IF NO AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE AND HEATING ELEMENT
GLOWS:
Remove the cover and check to see that the fan revolves freely. Check
and replace motor, if required.
IF NO AIR IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE AND HEATING ELEMENT
IS NOT IN OPERATION:
Check the thermostat. Assuming the thermostat is okay the timer or
sensor should be replaced.
IF DRYER WILL NOT SHUT OFF:
Make certain the push button returns out fully after being pushed in and
released. If button moves freely, replace the timer.
AUTOMATIC DRYERS:
Check that circuit board and sensor are clean from dust and lint
(carefully dust off). Make sure plastic window is clean on both sides.
Foam piece on window must remain intact. When replacing dryer cover,
be careful not to damage circuit board or sensor.
This dryer is activated by an infrared sensor. The dryer operates as long
as hands are below nozzle. There is a maximum 80 second running time
with a safety over-ride feature, if hands are not removed. Sensitivity is
adjustable (F

on the sensor. Use a small flat blade screw driver. 1/3 Turn MAX. Turn
CLOCKWISE to INCREASE sensitivity, COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to
DECREASE sensitivity.
