Important Safety Instructions

Save These Instructions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious in-
jury or death to persons when using your dryer, fol-
low these basic precautions:
• Read all instructions before using the dryer.
• Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLA-
TION manual for the proper grounding of the dryer.
• Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
soaked in, washed in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-clean-
ing solvents, other flammable or explosive substances as
they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Highly
flammable substances commonly used in domestic envi-
ronments including acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol/
gasoline, kerosene, spot removers (some brands), turpen-
tine, waxes and wax removers. This appliance shall not be
used to dry off solvents or dry-cleaning fluids.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the unit. This appli-
ance is not intended for use by young children or infirm per-
sons without supervision. Young children should be super-
vised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, re-
move the door to the drying compartment.
• Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is revolving.
• Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to
water and/or weather.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or attempt
any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-
maintenance instructions or in published user-repair in-
structions 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 product.
• To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics or articles
containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or simi-
larly textured rubberlike materials. Foam rubber materials
can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combus-
tion.
• Always clean the filter after every load. A layer of lint in the
filter reduces drying efficiency and prolongs drying time.
• Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent sur-
rounding area free from the accumulation of lint, dust and
dirt.
