WARNING!

WHEN USING YOUR DRYER (cont.)

Safety

Instructions

Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.

The interior of the machine and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer should be cleaned at least once a year by a qualified technician. See the Sorting and Loading Hints section on page 10.

You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics or reduce the static electricity in them by using a dryer-applied fabric softener or an antistatic conditioner. We recommend you use either a fabric softener in the wash cycle, according to the manufacturer’s instructions for those products, or try a dryer-added product for which the manufacturer gives written assurance on the package that their product can be safely used

in your dryer. Service or performance problems caused by use of these products are the responsibility of the manufacturers of those products and are not covered under the warranty of this appliance.

Operating

WHEN NOT USING YOUR DRYER

Tips

Grasp the plug firmly when disconnecting this appliance to avoid damage to the cord while pulling. Place the cord away from traffic areas so it will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage.

Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of this appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Owner’s Manual or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

Before discarding a dryer, or removing it from service, remove the dryer door to prevent children from hiding inside.

Do not tamper with controls.
