DRYER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions, including the
following:
Read all instructions before using the dryer.
■
This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles
■
that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other
purpose.
WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any
■
electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear the
area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.
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 fire. To
reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final
part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down
period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread
out so that the heat is dissipated.
Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
■
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, other flammable, or explosive substances as they
give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
■
Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close
■
supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used
near children.
Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
■
remove the doors to the dryer compartment.
Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.
■
Do not open door while dryer is in operation. It will stop.
■
Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to
■
water and/or the weather.
Do not tamper with controls.
■
Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.
■
Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.
■
Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt any
■
servicing unless specifically recommended in this Installation
Instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
■
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
■
similarly textured rubber-like materials.
The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat
■
(cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left at a
temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of
■
the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and
spread out so that the heat is dissipated. (Avoids risk of
spontaneous combustion).
Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
■
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should be
■
cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
See “Electrical Requirements” section for grounding
■
instructions.
