Important Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before using this dryer.

 To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons

when using this dryer, comply with the basic warnings listed below.

 Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal

injuries.

Prevent Fire

 

Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, soaked

in, or spotted with gasoline, cleaning solvents, kerosene,  waxes, etc. Do not
store these items on or near the dryer. These substances give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.

 Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.  Items

contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could
cause a load to catch fire.

 

To prevent fire, do not use heat to dry items containing plastic,

foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials, or items containing
feathers or down. Use Air Fluff (No Heat) only.

 

Clean the lint screen before or after each load. The interior of

the dryer, lint screen housing and exhaust duct should be cleaned
approximately every 18 months by qualified service personnel. An excessive
amount of lint build-up in these areas could result in inefficient drying and
possible fire. See 

Care and Cleaning

, page 7.

 

Do not operate the dryer if the lint screen is blocked, damaged

or missing. Fire hazard, overheating and damage to fabrics can occur. If your
dryer has a drying rack, always replace the lint screen when finished using the
drying rack.

 

Keep area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas

free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.

 

Do not obstruct the flow of ventilating air. Do not stack or place

laundry or throw rugs against the front or back of the dryer.

 Do not spray any type of aerosol into, on or near dryer at any

time.

 Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

 Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire, explosion, serious

bodily injury and/or damage to the rubber or plastic parts of the dryer.

Your safety and the safety of
others is very important.

safety messages in the Use and
Care Guide, Operating Instructions,
