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 con- tain significant amounts of these oils. The remain- ing 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 clothes dryer, can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reac- tion 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 escap- ing and can create a fire hazard.

All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain veg- etable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous. Washing these items in hot water with extra deter- gent will reduce, but will not eliminate, the haz- ard. Always use the “cool down” cycle for these items to reduce the items’ temperature. Never remove these items from the clothes 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.

Important Safety

Notice & Warning

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the burning of gas can result in low–level exposure to some of the listed substances, including benzene, formalde- hyde, and soot, due primarily to the incomplete com- bustion of natural gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Exhaust ducts should be kept free of obstructions and properly exhausted dryers will minimize exposure.

IMPORTANT: Because of continuing product improvements, Maytag reserves the right to change specifications without notice. For complete details, see the Installation Instructions packed with your product before selecting cabinetry, mak- ing cutouts or beginning installation.
