Amana NGD4655EW 6.5 cu ft Gas Dryer 18,000 BTU Wrinkle Prevent Gas Smell Error Fix: Gas Odor Detected Near Dryer

A natural gas or propane odor is detected near the dryer. SAFETY WARNING: If you smell gas strongly, do NOT operate any electrical switches or appliances. Open windows, leave the area, and call your gas utility company from outside the house. A slight gas odor when the burner first ignites is normal. A persistent gas smell indicates a leak in the gas supply line, the gas valve, or the burner tube connections. Have a qualified technician perform a gas leak test using soap solution on all gas connections. Do not attempt to repair gas leaks yourself. Ensure the dryer exhaust vent is not blocked — incomplete combustion can produce gas-like odors.
