IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
,WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons 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 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.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any ser-
vicing unless specifically recommended in these Operating Instructions. Repairs to electrical appliances should only be performed by qualified personnel. Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user.
Do not use fabric softeners or products 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 tex-
tured rubber-like materials.
–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.
The interior of the machine and exhaust duct should be cleaned peri-
odically 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding con-
ductor 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.

Drying tips
Knitted fabrics and flannel tend to shrink when washed and dried for the first time. Do not over dry these fabrics.
Permanent press and delicate fabrics tend to crease.
For better drying results reduce the load size and select the "PERMA PRESS/Hand iron" program.
To prevent discoloration, do not dry new dark-colored fabrics with light-col- ored items.
Do not overload the drum! Overloading the dryer will result in poor drying and wrinkling.
Close zippers and tie up fabric belts and apron ties.
Do not dry items that may melt or ignite in the dryer such as plastics, rubber or sneakers.
