MANUAL RESET HI-LIMIT INSTRUCTIONS
FOR PHASE 7 MODELS
This dryer was manufactured with a manual reset burner hi-limit and basket (tumbler)/lint chamber
hi-limit thermostat which is monitored by the Phase 7 computer. If the burner is open prior to start of the drying
cycle, the dryer will start momentarily and then shut down, the Phase 7 computer will display “BURNER HIGH
LIMIT FAULT” with an audio indication. If the basket (tumbler)/lint chamber hi-limit thermostat is open prior
to start, the display will read “EXHAUST HIGH LIMIT FAULT” with an audio indication as well.
If either manual reset hi-limit thermostat opens during a drying cycle, the display will show the applicable error
code described above, along with an audio indication. If the drum temperature is above 100° F (38° C), the
dryer will continue to run with no heat for 3 minutes or until the drum temperature has dropped below 100° F
(38° C). The clear/stop button on the Phase 7 keyboard (touch pad) must be pressed to clear the error
condition. The open manual reset hi-limit thermostat must be reset “manually” prior to the start of the next
cycle.
This hi-temperature condition may be caused due to a restricted exhaust, poor airflow, or improper burner
operation.
The location of the burner hi-limit is on the right side of the burner box and the basket (tumbler) hi-limit is located
in the lint chamber area.
WARNING: Discontinue power to dryer before attempting to reset hi-limit.
