IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of
,
fire, electric shock, or injury when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
Do not dry articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
Do not use fabric softener sheets
to eliminate static in the dryer. Best results occur when a liquid softener is used in the washing machine.
Do not use heat to dry articles
containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials and items containing, hairspray, nail polish remover or similar substances.
Clean the lint filter before or after
each load.
Keep the area around the air intake
(toekick) and adjacent surrounding areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
Do not allow children to play on or
in the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children. Always close the door after use to prevent child hazards.
Before this appliance is removed
from service or discarded remove the door to the drying compartment.
Do not reach into the dryer if the
drum is moving.
Do not install or store this
appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
Do not tamper
with the controls.
The interior of the machine and exhaust duct should be cleaned
periodically by qualified personnel.
Do not place items exposed to oils
in your dryer. Items contaminated with oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause the laundry to catch fire.

WARNING – Improper connection
of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
