Important Safety Instructions, con’t

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 rubber 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 
areas could result in ineffi cient drying and possible fi re. See 
Care and Cleaning.
Do not operate the dryer if the lint screen is blocked, dam-

• 

aged 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.
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.

 To reduce the risk of fi re, 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.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow these Important Safety Instructions:

 - FIRE HAZARD - A clothes dryer produces 

combustible lint. The dryer must be connected to an outdoors 
exhaust. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and 
remove any accumulation of lint around the opening and in 
the surrounding area.

Do not continue to use the dryer is 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 rub-
ber 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 materi-

• 

als 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, re-

• 

move the dryer door to prevent accidental entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in seri-

• 

ous personal injuries.

PREVENT INJURY

To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during opera-

• 

tion, the dryer must be installed and electrically grounded 
by a qualifi ed service person in accordance with local 
codes. Installation instructions are packed in the dryer for 
the installer’s reference. Refer to INSTALLATION INSTRUC-
TIONS
 for detailed grounding procedures. If the dryer is 
moved to a new location, have it checked and reinstalled 
by a qualifi ed 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.
