Safety Precautions ______________

Only qualified personnel should install, service,
or adjust this equipment.

The information in this manual must be followed to minimize
the risk of fire or explosion and to prevent property damage,
personal injury, or loss of life.

Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer.

Children must be supervised when near an operating dryer.

The appliance can be used by children aged
from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory and mental
capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of appliance in a
safe way and understand the hazards involved.

Do not modify this appliance.

Do not bypass or disable any door or drawer switch.

Do not bypass or disable any heat safety circuit.

Do not operate with any guards or service panels removed.

Do not operate if the lint filter is not in place.

Do not use dryer in the presence of dry cleaning fumes.

Do not spray aerosols near the dryer while it is operating.

Dry only water washed fabrics. Do not dry articles spotted or
washed in dry cleaning solvents, combustible detergents,
industrial chemicals, or “all-purpose” cleaner.

Do not dry rags or articles coated or contaminated with gasoline,
kerosene, oil, paint, or wax.

Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or
cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and should not be dried.

Do not dry mop heads. Contaminations from wax or flammable
solvents are a fire hazard.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids or vapors
in the vicinity of this appliance.

A qualified technician must be called if any high-limit thermostat
trips to investigate, and resolve, the issue.

Disconnect power before resetting any safety device.

Do not use heat for drying articles that contain plastic, foam,
sponge rubber, or similarly textured rubber materials.

Lint buildup in the burner area, exhaust duct, and around the
machine is a fire hazard and must be cleaned frequently.

You must disconnect and lockout the electric supply and the
gas supply, before removing any guards.

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing the dryer.

Every drying cycle finishes with a cool-down period to remove
heat from the dry load. Never stop the dryer before the end of
the drying cycle unless the load is quickly removed and spread
out to allow the heat to dissipate quickly.

Fabric softeners or similar products should only be used as
recommended by the fabric softener manufacturer.

Exhaust duct outlet should be checked periodically for
blockages, and if any found, removed.

Use this dryer only for its intended purpose, drying fabrics.

Purchaser and user should consult the local gas supplier for
proper instructions to be followed in the event the user smells
gas. The instructions should be posted in a prominent location.

What To Do If You Smell Gas:

• Do not try to operate any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch.

• Do not use any phone in your building.

• Clear the room, building, and area of all occupants.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s

phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire

department.
