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.
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 packing materials after the dryer is unpacked. Children 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 accidental entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
Prevent Injury
To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the dryer must be installed and electrically grounded by a
qualified service person in accordance with local codes. Installation instructions are packed in the dryer for the installer's reference. Refer
to INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS for detailed grounding procedures. If the dryer is moved to a new location, have it checked and
reinstalled by a qualified service person.
To prevent personal injury or damage to the dryer, the electrical power cord of a gas dryer must be plugged into a properly
grounded and polarized 3-prong outlet. The third grounding prong must never be removed. Never ground the dryer to a gas
pipe. Do not use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.
ALWAYS disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before attempting any service or cleaning. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock or injury.
Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
To prevent injury, do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. Wait until the dryer has stopped completely before
reaching into the drum.
To prevent injury and damage to the dryer:
• All repairs and servicing must be performed by an authorized servicer unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Guide.
Use only authorized factory parts.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to the weather.
A thermal limiter switch automatically turns off the motor in the unlikely event of an overheated situation (electric dryers only). A
service technician must replace the thermal limiter switch after correcting the fault.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
