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 or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances. They may 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 for 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

servicing 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 softener sheets to eliminate static in this dryer. Best

results are achieved when a liquid softener is used in the washer.

Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly

textured rubber-like materials, or items containing hair spray, 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 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.

This dryer is intended for residential use only!

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

conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified electrician 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.
