WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
To reduce the risk of fi re, electrical shock,

comply with the basic warnings listed be-
low. Failure to comply with the Important
Safety Instruction warnings could result in
property damage, serious personal injury,
or death.
Prevent fi re
DO NOT dry items that have been
previously cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted
with gasoline, cleaning solvents, kerosene,
waxes, or other fl ammable or explosive
substances. DO NOT store these items on
or near the dryer. These substances give off
vapors that could ignite or explode.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
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. To reduce the risk of fi re
due to contaminated loads, the fi nal part
of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping
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.
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 rubber materials, when
heated, can under certain circumstances
produce fi re by spontaneous combustion.
DO NOT operate the dryer if the lint
screen is blocked, damaged or missing.
Fire hazard, overheating and damage to
fabrics can occur.
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.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
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 professional. An
excessive amount of lint build-up in these
areas could result in ineffi cient drying and
possible fi re. See Care and Cleaning.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
A clothes dryer produces combustible
lint. The dryer must be connected to an
outdoor exhaust. Regularly inspect the
outdoor exhaust opening and remove any
accumulation of lint around the opening
and in the surrounding area.
DO NOT spray any type of aerosol into, on
or near dryer at any time.
