WARNING
For your safety, the information in this guide must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or death.
•Do not store or use petrol or other flammable vapours and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer or service agency. (see installation instructions).
WARNING! FIRE HAZARD
Do not place into your dryer items 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 remaining oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous ignition 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 will not eliminate, the hazard. Always use the “cool down” cycle for these items to reduce the items’ 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.
WARNING – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in severe personal injury or death.
CAUTION
CAUTION – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor personal injury.
