WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
Read all instructions before using the dryer.
This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles
that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other
purpose.
WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any
electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear
the area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.
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.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or
cooking oil or that have been contaminated by hair care
products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first
be washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will
reduce, but not eliminate the hazard.
Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned
in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gas,
dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable, or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that could ignite
or explode.
Items that have been soiled with substances such as
acetone, alcohol, gas, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in
the dryer.
Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
Do not use this dryer if industrial chemicals have been
used for cleaning. The possible presence of residual
quantities of aggressive or decomposed chemicals in the
load may produce damage to the dryer and harmful fumes.
Do not allow children to play on, in, or with the dryer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer
is used near children.
This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the dryer by a person responsible for
their safety.
Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door to the dryer compartment.
Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.
Do not open door while dryer is in operation. It will stop.
When loading or re-loading the dryer, avoid touching hot
metal parts of the drum (burn risk).
Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and
matches.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by
children without supervision.
WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through
an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected
to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
The dryer must not be installed behind a lockable door, a
sliding door, or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to
that of the dryer in such a way that full opening of the dryer
door is restricted.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance is intended, but not limited, to be used in
public areas.
Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless
continuously supervised.
The appliance must be disconnected from it's power
source during service and when replacing parts.
If drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,
disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before
gently removing the blockage.
If the dryer is not heating, or appears to be defective or
damaged, do not use it. Contact the owner.
Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed
to the weather.
Do not tamper with controls.
Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.
Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.
Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt
any servicing unless specifically recommended in this
Installation Instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as
specified by the fabric softener instructions.
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles, rubber-backed articles and clothes or
pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried
in the tumble dryer.
The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left
at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be
damaged.
WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of
the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and
spread out so that the heat is dissipated. (Avoids risk of
spontaneous combustion).
In case of electrical supply failure, remove the load
quickly and spread it out to avoid risk of spontaneous
combustion.
Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
The fresh air ventilation openings into the room and into
the dryer must not be blocked or sealed.
Emergency stop control: After installation, access to
mains plug (gas dryer) or mains supply (electric dryer)
via a double-pole switch must be maintained at all times
in order to ensure immediate deactivation of the dryer in
case of emergency.
The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should
be cleaned periodically by Whirlpool authorized service
personnel.
See "Electrical Requirements" section for earthing
instructions.
Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the
back-flow of gases into the room from appliances burning
fuels, including open fires.
