9. At this time, make sure all gas connections (on gas models), exhaust and electrical connections are complete.
Plug in your dryer, and check its operation by using the checklist below.
10. (GAS MODELS ONLY)
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat setting
will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure
the gas supply to your dryer has been turned on. In order to confirm the gas ignition, check the exhaust for
heat.
