Air Duct Assembly
The air duct assembly houses the drum seal, steam
nozzle, and the 2 sensor rods. It is located on the
back side of the front panel.
Note: The sensor rods are part of the air duct
assembly. To replace the sensor rods, the air duct
assembly must be replaced.
To remove the air duct assembly:
1. Remove the top and front panels. (See Top Panel
and Front Panel.)
2. Remove the drum slide assembly. (See Drum
Slide Assembly.)
3. Grasp each side of the air duct assembly and
unsnap the air duct from the front panel.
4. Disconnect the sensor wires.
Caution: Upon reassembly, ensure that the door
switch, drum light, and sensor wiring are retained
and routed properly to avoid contact with the drum.
Note: The drum seal can be replaced by extracting
the seal from the channel located in the air duct
assembly.
Steam Nozzle
The steam nozzle is located inside the front of the
dryer on the right side of the air duct assembly. The
steam nozzle consists of a brass orifi ce and a fi ne
fi lter screen. If the orifi ce should become plugged
or restricted, it should not be cleaned. Replace a
plugged or restricted steam nozzle.
