safety instructions
WARNINGS
Ensure pockets are free from small, irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie.
coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.
WARNING
Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in a dangerous situation.
CAUTIONS
Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close supervision is
necessary when the appliance is used near children and pets.
CAUTION
Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying
compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.
Do not reach into the appliance when the drum is moving.
Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless specifically
instructed to in the user-repair instructions and you have the understanding and skills to carry
out the procedure.
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 installation
instructions for information about grounding this appliance.
Do not sit on top of the dryer.
Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.
Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.
Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.
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 spontaneoulsy. 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..
