Safety
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 fi re.
• Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic
or similar materials such as bras, galoshes,
bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants, plastic bags
and pillows that may melt or burn. Some rub-
ber materials, when heated, can under certain
circumstances produce fi re by spontaneous
combustion.
• 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 qualifi ed service personnel.
An excessive amount of lint build-up in these ar-
eas could result in ineffi cient drying and possible
fi re. See Care and Cleaning.
• Do not obstruct the fl ow 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 elimi-
nate static unless recommended by the manu-
facturer of the fabric softener or product.
• Do not continue to use the dryer if you hear
squeaking, grinding, rubbing or other unusual
noises. This could be a sign of mechanical
breakdown and lead to fi re or serious injury.
Contact a qualifi ed technician immediately.
• Failure to comply with these warnings could
result in fi re, explosion, serious bodily injury and/
or damage to the rubber or plastic parts of the
dryer.
PROTECT CHILDREN
• Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the dryer is used near children. As children grow,
teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.
• Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other pack-
ing materials after the dryer is unpacked. Chil-
dren might use them for play. Cartons covered
with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can
become airtight chambers.
• Keep laundry products out of children’s reach.
To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings
on product labels.
• Before the dryer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the dryer door to prevent ac-
cidental entrapment.
• Failure to comply with these warnings could
result in serious personal injuries.

blocked, damaged or missing. Fire hazard, over-
heating and damage to fabrics can occur.
