IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:

To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury, or death when using your dryer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

1.Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2.To avoid the possibility of fire or explo- sion:

a.Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gaso- line, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive sub- stances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material on which you have used a cleaning solvent, or which is satu- rated with flammable liquids or solids, should not be placed in the dryer, until all traces of these flam- mable 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, tur- pentine, waxes and wax removers.

b.Items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-like materials must not be dried on a heat setting. Foam rubber materials when heat- ed, can under certain circum- stances produce fire by sponta- neous combustion.

3.Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children and pets.

4.Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.

5.Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

6.Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weath- er.

7.Do not tamper with controls.

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

9.Do not use fabric softeners or prod- ucts to eliminate static unless recom- mended for dryer use by the manu- facturer of the fabric softener or prod- uct.

10.Clean the lint screen before or after each load.

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

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

13.This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which is not grounded adequately and in accor- dance with local and national codes. See installation instructions for grounding this appliance.

14.Do not sit on top of the clothes dryer.

WARNING:

Do not place into your dryer items that have been spotted or soaked with veg- etable 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 clothes 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 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.
