• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless the softener or
product is recommended for dryer use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
• Clean the lint screen before or after each load.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint, dust,
and dirt.
• The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
• This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle
that is not grounded adequately or not in accordance with local and national codes. See
the installation instructions for information about grounding this appliance.
• Do not sit on top of the dryer.
• Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.
• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil
or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain significant amounts
of these oils.
• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed
to heat. Heat sources such as your 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 not eliminate,
the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their
temperature. Never remove these items from the 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.
