Safety Precautions
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or personal injury when using your dryer, follow the basic safety precautions below:
1.Read all instructions before using your appliance.
2.To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:
a.Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a cleaning solvent or flammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until all traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed. There are many highly flammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline,
kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot | removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax |
removers. |

WARNING – Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil.Even after being washed,these items may contain significant amounts of these oils.
The residual oil can ignite spontaneously.The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when the items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat.Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items,allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to occur.Oxidation creates heat.If this heat cannot escape,the items can become hot enough to catch fire.Piling,stacking,or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire hazard.
All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous. Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these items when they are hot.
