ACCESSORIES
DRYING RACK
STACKING KIT
PEDESTAL
The DRYING RACK is used to dry items that should not be tumbled, like sweaters, tennis shoes, etc. It should be removed and stored when not in use. The rack is included with the dryer. (See installation procedure, below.) The STACKING KIT is used to stack a dryer on top of a matching washer. (NEVER put a washer on top of a dryer!) The stacking kit should not be used in a situation where there is the possibility of excessive vibration and movement of the washer, such as in a mobile home or an upper floor of a frame structure. The stacking kit is available as an optional purchase. (See installation procedure, pages 9 ~ 10.) The PEDESTAL can be used under either the washer or the dryer. It is possible to stack a washer and dryer on a pedestal, but the dryer controls may be difficult to reach and the possibility of vibration and movement is greater. The pedestal is available as an optional purchase. Additionally, there are two versions of the pedestal in production. (See installation procedure, pages 11 ~ 14.) Pedestals are available in heights of 7 and 13. There are two types of pedestal available, the difference being the mode of attachment to the product. You must have the correct pedestal to mount your product.
INSTALLATION (RACK)
Open the dryer door. Put the rack in place. Select RACK DRY. Press START. Be sure the front of the rack is properly situated in the notches on either side of the filter. The back should rest on the drum and allow the drum to rotate.

INSTALLATION (Stacking Kit)

WARNING! Do not attempt this alone! At least two people are required to lift the dryer and place it properly on top of the washer. Failure to observe this warning could result in serious physical injury and damage to the appliances. Place the washer on a solid, even floor. If you plan to use a pedestal, install it now before going any further.
Peel the protective paper from the adhesive tape on the side bracket.
Fit the side bracket firmly to the top plate using the adhesive tape, as shown in the drawing.
Secure the bracket to the top plate using a screw, as shown. Repeat these steps for the other side.
Level the dryer on a firm solid floor and lock down the adjusters before placing it on top of the washer. Lift the dryer on top of the washer it toward the front of the washer, as shown. Slide the dryer all the way back to the stop on the rail.

INSTALLATION (Stacking Kit) continued

Install the front rail of the stacking kit. Push the front rail back against the stops on the side brackets.
Insert a screw to attach the front rail to the side bracket. Insert the other screw for the other side.
INSTALLATION (Makeup Air)

Minimum clearances must be observed, particularly if the dryer is installed in a closet or a laundry alcove. The dryer is essentially an air pump moving 150 cfm (cubic feet per minute) and that air must come from somewhere for the dryer to operate properly. Additional air must be supplied to support proper combustion for gas models.

INSTATION (Pedestal, old style)

For 27 Pedestals (Washer, Dryer, and Combo) Remove the pedestal, installation hardware, and instructions from the shipping container.
Level the pedestal on a solid, flat, level floor. Lock down the rear adjusters, but leave the front ones free for now. Set the dryer on the pedestal and level it. Level it and lock down all four adjusters on the dryer. Note which holes are for the washer and which are for the dryer. If you are stacking the appliances, the washer should be on the bottom. REAR FRONT
Remove the protective paper from the adhesive surface of the bracket. Be particularly careful, because when this adhesive makes contact, there is no adjustment possible. NOTE: Some kits include two sets of brackets (curved for the dryer and flat (shown) for the washer.) Use the correct bracket for your application. The curved bracket is for clearance of the exhaust vent when a dryer has been converted to side venting. (See next page.)

CYCLE and OPTION INFORMATION

The steam dryer is designed to provide the power of a swirling jet of steam through the introduction of steam into almost every drying cycle. Many of the preset cycles have options that can be overridden by the user. Not every option is available at every time; for example, you cannot select EXTRA HOT temperature on the DELICATE cycle. STEAMFRESH The STEAMFRESH cycle is a 20-minute cycle that tumbles the clothes in a spray of steam. This cycle is NOT a cleaning cycle, but is instead designed to refresh clothing that has been packed away, stored, or otherwise wrinkled and less than freshly laundered. The steam cycle will refresh from one to five items during its 20-minute run time. The drum tumbles the clothes while steam sprays through them for the first five minutes. Then the steam continues while the drum tumbles for 2 seconds once each minute. At that point (12 minutes into the cycle,) the steam generator is turned off and the dryer continues to tumble constantly with the main heater engaged to finish drying the clothes. The main heater is turned off for the last two minutes of the cycle while the drum continues to tumble to allow the clothes to cool. The MORE TIME and LESS TIME buttons are used to adjust the number of items to be freshened during the STEAMFRESH cycle. The time cannot be adjusted by the user when a sensor dry cycle is engaged. STEAM SANITARY The STEAM SANITARY cycle is for sanitizing non-washable items quickly and easily, using only steam. This cycle is recommended for cotton and polyester material only. DO NOT use it for urethane foam, down, feathers, or delicate items. SENSOR DRY CYCLES Sensor dry cycles use the dual drying sensor to determine when the clothes are dry. This may shorten or lengthen the drying time, depending upon the moisture level in the clothing. The temperature level is preset according to the cycle, but can be overridden by the user by pressing the TEMP CONTROL button. The time will be determined by the microprocessor on the control panel. MANUAL DRY CYCLES Manual dry allows the user to select both the drying time and the temperature manually.
DLEX3001X
Page 25
TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
REDUCE STATIC The REDUCE STATIC cycle is an add-on to all the regular cycles except AIR DRY or RACK DRY. When REDUCE STATIC is selected, the main heater is turned off two minutes before the end of the cycle and the steam generator is energized for the final two minutes while the drum continues to turn. EASY IRON The EASY IRON cycle is an add-on to all the regular cycles except AIR DRY or RACK DRY. When EASY IRON is selected, the main heater is turned off eight minutes before the end of the cycle and the steam generator is energized for the final eight minutes while the drum tumbles for two seconds once a minute. ANTIBACTERIAL The antibacterial cycle includes a high heat setting to reduce bacteria. It can be used with only the HEAVY DUTY, COTTON, and NORMAL cycles. DO NOT use this with delicate fabrics. NSF International certifies that the ANTIBACTERIAL option reduces 99.9% of the bacteria on laundry and that none of the bacteria will carry over to the next laundry load.
CHILD LOCK Press and hold CHILD LOCK to activate the feature. CHILD LOCK can be engaged only after a cycle has been selected and the START button has been pressed. CHLD LOCK locks ALL controls, including the POWER button. It releases at the end of the cycle or in the event of a power failure.

CUSTOM PGM CUSTOM PROGRAM allows the user to set up a special drying program. Turn the dryer on and select a cycle. The preset options will be shown on the LCD display. You can override many of these by using the OPTION BUTTONS. When you have selected the options you want, press and hold the CUSTOM PGM button until the dryer beeps twice. Then whenever you want to use your custom program, turn the dryer ON and press CUSTOM PGM. MORE TIME / LESS TIME Press MORE TIME to adjust the drying time during MANUAL DRY, TIME DRY, and STEAM FRESH, REDUCE STATIC, and EASY IRON cycles. Each press of the button increases the cycle time by one minute. Press LESS TIME to adjust the drying time during MANUAL DRY, TIME DRY, and STEAM FRESH, REDUCE STATIC, and EASY IRON cycles. Each press of the button decreases the cycle time by one minute.
WRINKLE CARE WRINKLE CARE will cause the load to tumble periodically for up to three hours at the end of the cycle or until the door is opened, to prevent wrinkling when you are unable to remove the clothes from the dryer immediately after the end of the cycle. RACK DRY Press RACK dry after installing the drying rack. This option allows the drying of delicate items that do not need to be tumbled and is also useful for noisy items like tennis shoes. You can select NO HEAT or LOW HEAT, and adjust the time as necessary.

DAMP DRY BEEP Press the DAMP DRY BEEP button when starting the cycle and the dryer will beep before the end to let you know the clothes are still damp and ready to be ironed.
LANGUAGE SELECTION Press and hold the DAMP DRY BEEP button to access the LANGUAGE SELECTION SCREEN. Then choose among ENGLISH, FRENCH, or SPANISH. The selection will remain in memory, even if the dryer is turned off or unplugged.
FLOW SENSE
FLOWSENSE is a sensor system that detects blockages in the ductwork that reduce exhaust flow from the dryer. This improves the overall efficiency of the dryer and minimizes service calls. The icon indicates the condition of the vent system and alerts the user to any adverse conditions that may develop. The FLOW CHECK TEST should be performed when the dryer is first installed to alert the user of any problems with the duct in the home. The test performed during normal operation provides more accurate information
DLEX3001X
Page 28
TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
INSTALLATION CHECK Perform this test when installing the dryer or operating it for the first time. It takes only two minutes. The dryer must be at ambient (room) temperature and empty for the test to be reliable. Press and hold the TEMP CONTROL and DAMP DRY BEEP buttons and then press the POWER button. The dryer will operate for two minutes while it evaluates the temperatures. At the end of this short cycle, it will display the results as shown. If NO BARS are indicated, the vent system is free from blockage or restrictions.
If 4 BARS are indicated, the vent system is restricted and must be cleaned or repaired immediately. If you clear the vent system and 2 BARS remain, they should disappear after a couple of cycles have run.
If the FLOWSENSE icon indicates 2 BARS, the vent system is less than ideal but will still allow the dryer to function properly. Before using the dryer, have the vent system inspected.
If either the FLOWSENSE icon or the warning screen appears, stop the dryer and inspect the vent system for blockage.
See the section on vent installation, pages 68 ~ 71, for more information.

DISPLAY PWB
The display board is actually two boards connected by a ribbon cable. One board holds the selector knob and cycle indicator LEDs. The other holds the LCD display and adjustment buttons to override the pre-set cycle selections. DISPLAY BOARD The display board includes the LCD display and LEDs that indicate the various cycle and option information. It is made of two boards that are permanently connected by a ribbon cable that is soldered to the board at each end. This makes the boards a single unit. The purpose is to allow the display board to flex to fit inside a curved control panel while maintaining its integrity as a single board.
MAIN CONTROL BOARD
The main board is attached to the back of the display board in the control panel by two screws. Many of the components of the dryer can be tested by removing their connector at the main board.

MOTOR DIAGRAM and SCHEMATIC

To check the motor, turn the power off and allow the capacitor to discharge. The centrifugal switch serves as a safety device to turn off the fuel (gas or electricity) to the heater if the motor fails to rotate.
DLEX3001X
Page 38
TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
SAFETY SWITCHES The centrifugal switch slides back and forth on the motors shaft to operate the contacts as shown in the previous diagram. This switch provides safety in the event the motor fails. When the motor is running, centrifugal force causes the weight (black wing in photo) to slide back toward the motor windings. This motion allows electricity to operate the heater (electric element or gas valve). If the motor stops, the weight slides forward and turns the power off. RUN POSITION STOP POSITION
There is an additional safety in the form of a belt switch that shuts off power to the electric motor if the belt breaks. Belt tension holds the switch closed. If the belt breaks, the switch opens and power to the motor is cut. When the motor stops, the centrifugal switch functions as a safety device to turn off the fuel (gas or electricity). The centrifugal switch includes a multi-pin connector (shown). The belt switch is simple. If the belt breaks, the spring pulls the lever down and it presses the switch to turn the dryer off.

TEST 10 STEAM GENERATOR ASSEMBLY
STEAM GENERATOR NOTES When you use the steam function for the first time, the tank will likely have sufficient water for operating from 2 to 4 loads per tank. Keep the tank full. Before starting a steam cycle, fill the tank to the MAX line. Use ordinary tap water; distilled water will not allow the water level sensor to operate properly. Otherwise, you will see an error message or an ADD WATER message, like the one shown. Use only tap water. Do not add other liquids, gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. Do not fill the tank with hot water. Do not drink the water from the steam feeder.

GAS CONVERSION (Natural to Propane)

WARNING! Improper installation and/or adjustment of orifices and gas valves can result in fire, explosion, and suffocation. Installation and adjustment should be performed ONLY by a trained, licensed, and certified gasfitter. The dryer is shipped from the factory equipped for natural gas.
NOTICE!
1. Close the adjustment screw.
There is a nut on the adjustment screw. This nut is secured to the thread with a sealing compound. The nut is prepositioned to the place the valve would be properly adjusted for LP. Its purpose is to provide a shoulder for positioning the adjustment screw if the dryer is converted from natural gas to propane. NOTE: The conversion should be performed by a licensed and certified gasfitter or other trained, qualified servicer.

GAS CONVERSION (Natural to Propane) continued 2. Replace the orifice. (See photo, previous page.)
Youll have to remove the top plate and front cover to change the orifice. It is much easier if you remove the tub front and drum as well. Installing the correct orifice is critical! This should be performed ONLY by trained, licensed, and certified service personnel. 3. The conversion kit includes a propane orifice, complete instructions for making the conversion, and a label indicating the conversion kit has been installed. All conversion work, including testing and adjusting, must be completed by a trained, licensed, and certified gasfitter. Be sure to retain the original orifice in the event that the dryer should be converted back to natural gas. Put it into the plastic bag for the original orifice and tape it to the inside of the dryer cabinet next to the tech sheet.
4.
Gas Pressure Testing

There is a port on the gas valve assembly that allows checking the pressure. Remove the brass screw on the test port and attach a manometer to read the gas pressure. (The screw is already removed in the photo.)
DLEX3001X
Page 54
TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
Gas Pressure Testing

Attach the manometer to the test port as shown in the photo. Natural gas should be set at approximately 5 inches of water column. Propane should be set at approximately 10 inches of water column. Remember that the valve is already adjusted and pre-set at the factory for both types of gas. If your pressures are reasonably different from what you expected, you should check the pressure on the incoming gas line.
To test the gas pressure, burner operation (gas dryer,) or heater (electric dryer,) the servicer must fabricate a bulkhead cover to allow the blower to pull through the system as if the dryer were fully assembled and in normal operation. To accomplish this, remove the front cover, tape the door switch into the closed position, and cover the door opening with a piece of cardboard. Insert a 2-foot test pipe with fittings for a temperature probe and a manometer. (See page 69.) Under these conditions, you can measure input gas pressure, vent temperature, and static vent pressure under normal operating conditions.

GAS VALVE OPERATION

The gas valve is a two-stage valve. When the ignition sequence begins, the igniter is turned on and valve one opens. When the igniter reaches 374 F (190 C), the igniter is turned off and valve two is opened. If the flame detector does not detect ignition, valve one is closed and the process is restarted. If ignition occurs as planned, the drying cycle will operate.

STEAM GENERATOR The steam in the dryer serves two purposes. The REDUCE STATIC cycle adds a slight spray of steam to the drum during the last 15 minutes of most of the dry cycles. The EASY IRON cycle adds a heavy spray of steam to the laundry load to leave the clothes very damp in preparation for ironing. Either option is available on most cycles. Regardless of cycle, the steam generator will be turned off during the last 8 minutes of any steam washing cycle. When using the STEAM FRESH cycle, if the sensor bars detect moisture in the load, the steam heater and pump will not be energized. The steam is created by boiling water in the steam generator and piping the steam into the back of the dryer drum through a nozzle toward the top of the back.
The water drawer, pump, and steam generator are mounted in the guide assembly on the left side of the dryer. The tank is accessible by pulling out the drawer on the control panel. Use ordinary tap water to fill the tank. The pump operates on 9 VDC and fills the tank as the level in the steam generator is determined by the sensors. The tank will be pumped nearly dry the first time the dryer is operated; thereafter, the dryer will operate between 2 to 4 loads per tankful. If the steam generator is not filled within 60 seconds of pump operation, the display will indicate error code E5.
See Steam Generator Error Codes, page 37.

STEAM GENERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING The steam generator for the dryer is made up of 7 major components. They are the 1100 watt heater @ 120 VAC, the low water sensor, the high water sensor, the temperature sensing thermistor, the water tank, the water reservoir, and a 9 VDC water pump.
The water level sensors, the thermistor, along with the control board determine IF the steam generator heater will be activated. See the wiring diagram for the water level sensors and steam generator heater. The picture above shows 3 connectors. The left most connector with black and gray leads is the temperature sensing thermistor. The center connector with a black and orange wire is the low water sensor. The front connector with a single brown wire is the high water sensor. From the wiring diagram you will see that the black wire is the GROUND reference. The orange wire is the low water sensor lead. The brown wire is the high water sensor terminal.
DLEX3001X
Page 62
TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
STEAM GENERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING , continued The sensors operate in a 5 VDC environment. When water is present and conductivity exists from the black GND lead and the orange low water sense lead, less than 2.0 VDC will be measured. If the water tank was empty, the low water reading from black to orange would be (more than) > 3 VDC. (See High Water Sensor Below) The photo to the left shows the high water sensor BN wire. As the picture shows the meter is reading a voltage of 4.52 VDC. Water in the housing is not touching the high water probe. When this occurs, the control board would activate the 9 VDC water pump for the steam generator before energizing the heater, IF steam was selected, and the control board wanted steam. We see the meter displaying <1.5 VDC. In this example the water in the housing is touching the high water sensor probe and the ground probe. When this occurs conductivity through the water is measured as a voltage drop and the control board knows the water housing is full of water.
The steam generator heater is ON. The heater operates on 120 VAC @ 1100 watts and 9 amps. The wiring diagram shows a white wire and a red wire. Red is L1 and white is neutral. When a steam cycle is selected the control board will verify high water level, add water via the 9 VDC water pump and water reservoir if needed, and then energize the heater. After a few minutes, steam is produced.

STEAM GENERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING, continued Serviceability is limited to testing components function and available voltages or amperages. If any component fails, the steam generator must be replaced as an assembly. The thermistor is an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) device; as temperature goes up, resistance goes down. The ohm value at room temperature is approximately 60K and the voltage measured across the sensor is approximately 3.6 VDC. AT 212F the ohm value is approximately 3.3K and the voltage measure across the sensor is 0.88 VDC. The dryer is not connected to cold water plumbing but relies on a water reservoir and a pump motor. The water pump is powered by the control board from CON RD6, yellow (+9 VDC) to blue (Ground).
To test the motor: 1) place your meter leads across the motor connector, 2) remove the single connector from the high water sensor (BN wire), 3) Start a steam cycle, and observe your meter and listen for the motor to run. If the control board is powering the motor with 9 VDC and the motor is running, 4) Reconnect the single brown wire to the high water sensor. The control board should sense the water touching the high water sensor and turn the 9 VDC to the motor OFF.

DRUM, BELT, and PULLEY Remove the drum front. Reach in and remove the belt from the motor and pulley. Lift the drum out through the front of the dryer. The belt will still be around the drum. To replace the drum, put the belt around it and set into the dryer to rest on the two rubber wheels on the tub back. Let the belt hang. Replace the tub front, holding the drum up so it can set on the two rubber wheels on the tub front. The drum is symmetrical; that is, it can be replaced with either end toward the front. Make sure the belt is around the circumference of the drum near the point where it usually rides. Reach in through the front or the side and loop the belt around the motor shaft and the pulley. Rotate the drum by hand a couple of turns to seat it.

TRAINING MANUAL
DLEX3001X
ADDITIONAL VENTING INFORMATION It is critical to maintain the correct static pressure in the dryer vent system. Maximum vent pipe length and the number of elbows must be figured into the equation to ensure there is not too much static pressure within the vent line. Measure the static pressure using a 0-to-1 magnehelic, a digital manometer, or a Dwyer 460 air meter. Static pressure should be no greater than 0.6 inches of water column. In the case of a dryer vent, the manometer is attached to a fitting on a test pipe in the dryer exhaust to read the static pressure in the vent. Static pressure should be no greater than 0.6 inches of water column. REMINDER! If you have installed the side vent kit, remember the kit includes a 90 elbow inside the dryer which counts as one elbow in the vent system and this must be taken into account when figuring vent length and static pressure measurements. It is sometimes necessary to use a section of test pipe with a fitting installed. Attach the test pipe section to the vent where it exits the dryer and attach the existing vent pipe to the end of the test pipe to get an accurate reading of the static pressure in the entire vent system.
The Dwyer 460 Air Meter is an economical test item for measuring static pressure in vent ducts. It is attached to a fitting on a test pipe in the dryer exhaust to read the static pressure in the vent.

VENT RULES When installing the vent, follow these simple guidelines. The vent should be as short and as straight as possible. Use as few elbows as possible. Use rigid ducting or semi-rigid flexible ducting. Avoid thin foil or plastic duct. Be sure the duct is not restricted at any point, especially where it passes through walls or other barriers.
Avoid flexible vent runs. Avoid runs with multiple elbows or bends. See the installation chart on page 70.
Clean the duct regularly. Check for lint build up, especially at the end cap and at any bend in the duct.
