After verifying both Inlet Gas Valves are closed, open the manual Inlet Gas Valve for the desired fuel.

Failure to follow the following directions may result in an unsafe situation.
8. If the Dryer is wired for three-phase power, check the control circuit voltage before starting the Dryer, to verify that it is within a 110V to 125V range. Follow instructions on the bilingual Circuit Breaker Card shown below (5542-00001, ships loose):
• Install the card with the circuit breakers facing toward the I/O Panel. make sure that the fuse is installed and that it is rated at 6 amps.
• Make sure that the connector on the circuit breaker is lined up with the male end on the I/O Panel.
