washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents, other flammable, or explosive 
substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or 
explode.

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is 
used near children.

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

Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt 
any servicing unless specifically recommended in this 
Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instruc-
tions 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 or product.

Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or 
similarly textured rubber-like materials.

Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent sur-
rounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust, 
and dirt.
