For gas dryers, make sure that the valve on the gas supply line
is open.

If the dryer has just been installed or unused for an extended
period, the pump may be louder and run longer. This is normal.

minutes of use.
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.
Clean out pockets before laundering.
The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the Installation
Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in firm contact with
the floor.
When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer
to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.
On gas dryers, you may hear the gas valve clicking as it opens
and closes. This is normal.
Clean lint screen before each load. Clean space where lint screen
is located, as needed. Using a vacuum, gently remove any lint
that has accumulated outside of the lint screen.
Run the dryer for 5–10 minutes. Hold your hand under the
outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not feel
air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust
vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the Installation
Instructions.
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the Installation
Instructions.
Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.
