WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

■Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.

■Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

■Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to the weather.

■Do not tamper with controls.

■Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

■Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

■Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

■Clean lint screen before or after each load.

■Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

■The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
