WARNING — To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons
when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the
appliance.
2. To avoid the possibility of fire or
explosion;
a. Do not dry items that have been
previously cleaned in, w/ashed in,
soaked in, or spotted with gaso
line, dry-cleaning solvents, other
flammable or explosive sub
stances as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode. Any
material on which you have used
a cleaning solvent, or which is sat
urated with flammable liquids or
solids, should not be placed in the
dryer, until all traces of these
flammable liquids or solids and
their fumes have been removed.
There are many highly flammable
items used in homes, such as:
acetone, denatured alcohol, gaso
line, kerosene, some liquid house
hold cleaners, some spot
removers, turpentine, waxes and
wax removers.
b. Items containing foam rubber
(may be labeled latex foam) or
similarly textured rubber-like
materials must not be dried on a
heat setting. Foam rubber materi
als when heated, can under cer
tain circumstances produce fire by
spontaneous combustion.
3. Do not allow children to play on or in
the appliance. Close supervision of
children is necessary when the appli
ance is used near children.
4. Before the appliance is removed from
service or discarded, remove the

the appliance or attempt any servic
ing unless specifically recommended
in published user-repair instructions
that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
9. Do not use fabric softeners or prod
ucts to eliminate static unless recom
mended for dryer use by the manu
facturer of the fabric softener or prod
uct.
10. Clean the lint screen before or after
each ioad.
11. Keep the area around the exhaust
opening and surrounding areas free
from lint accumulation, dust and dirt.
12. The interior of the dryer and exhaust
duct should be cleaned periodically
by qualified service personnel.

Do not place into your dryer Items 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. The remaining oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential
for spontaneous ignition increases when the items containing vegetable oil or
cooking oil are exposed to heat. Heat sources, such as your clothes dryer, can
warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation cre
ates 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 escap
ing and can create a fire hazard.
Ail 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
will not eliminate, the hazard. Always use the “cool down” cycle for these items to
reduce the items’ temperature. Never remove these items from the clothes 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.
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition
65) requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the
State of California to cause cancer or repro
ductive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customers of potential exposures to
such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned
that the burning of gas can result in lowlevel exposure to some of the listed sub
stances, including benzene, formaldehyde
and soot, due primarily to the incomplete
combustion of natural gas or liquid petrole
um (LP) fuels. Exhaust ducts should be kept
free of obstructions and properly exhausted
dryers will minimize exposure.
