AIR FLOW AND SEALS
Proper air fl ow through the dryer is essential for normal operation of the temperature control and safety
systems. The back cover must be in place for proper airfl ow.
Air is pulled into vents in the rear of the cabinet. The temperature of the air rises by passing thru the
electric heaters. This heated air enters thru holes in the back of the drum and dries the clothes load. The air
containing moisture is pulled through the lint fi lter, where lint is screened by the fi lter, and enters the outlet
duct. The air in the outlet duct is pulled by the blower. From the blower the air is pushed out of the exhaust
system.
Any air leaks between the air inlet and the blower such as drum front felt or outlet duct to duct cover sealing
will result in improper temperatures. The air being pulled down the duct outlet to the outlet thermostat will be
cooler than normal, giving this thermostat a false indication (delayed or no trip).
