DRYER SAFETY

■It is recommended that the owner post, in a prominent locaon, instrucons for the customer’s use in the event the customer

smells gas. This informaon should be obtained from your gas supplier.

■Post the following warning in a prominent locaon.

DRYER SAFETY

 When discarding or storing your old clothes dryer, remove the door.

DRYER SAFETY

■Clean dryer lint screen before or aer each load.

■ Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.

■ Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or aempt

any servicing unless specically recommended in this

Installaon Instrucons or in published user-repair

instrucons that you understand and have the skills

to carry out.

■ Do not use fabric soeners or products to eliminate stac

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric

soener or product.

■ Do not use heat to dry arcles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber-like materials.

■ The nal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat

(cool-down cycle) to ensure that the arcles are le at

a temperature that ensures that the items will not be

damaged.

■ 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 combuson).

■ Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulaon of lint,

dust, and dirt.

■ The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should

be cleaned periodically by qualied service personnel.

■ See “Electrical Requirements” secon for grounding

instrucons.

 To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precauons,

including the following:



■ Read all instrucons before using the dryer.

■ This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and texles

that have been washed in water. Do not use for any

other purpose.

■ 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 reacon that could cause a load to catch re.

■ Do not dry arcles that have been previously cleaned

in, washed in, soaked in, or spoed with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, other ammable, or explosive

substances as they give o 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 operaon. It will stop.

■Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

■Do not tamper with controls.

Gas Dryer Grounding

 The dryer must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes and ordinances or, in the absence

of local codes, with the Naonal Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,

latest edion, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1. If codes

permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended

that a qualied electrical installer determine that the ground

path is adequate.

■Do not ground to a gas pipe.

■Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical

circuit is required. A me-delay fuse or circuit breaker is

also recommended. It is recommended that a separate

circuit serving only this dryer be provided.

■This dryer is equipped with a power supply cord having a

3-prong grounding plug.

■ To minimize the possibility of shock, the cord must be

plugged into a mang, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet,

grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

If a mang outlet is not available, it is the personal

responsibility and obligaon of the customer to have the

properly grounded outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

■ If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualied electrician determine that

the ground path is adequate.

■ Check with a qualied electrician if you are not sure the

dryer is properly grounded.
