Installation Notes

Console replacement on residential dryers should be performed by a qualified appliance technician. Disconnect power at the wall outlet or circuit breaker before beginning any disassembly. For gas dryer models, ensure the gas supply valve is turned off prior to service as a standard precaution when working near the appliance cabinet. Take care not to pinch or stress wiring harnesses when seating the new console assembly.
