Safety information

These warning signs are here to prevent injury to yourself and others.

Please follow them explicitly.

After reading this manual, store it in a safe place for future reference.

Read all instructions before using the appliance.

As with any equipment that uses electricity and moving parts, potential hazards exist.

To safely operate this appliance, familiarize yourself with its operation and exercise care

when using it.

WARNING - Risk of Fire

• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualied installer.

• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.

• Do not install a clothes dryer with exible plastic venting materials. If exible metal

(foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specic type identied by the appliance

manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are

known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct

clothes dryer airow and increase the risk of re.

• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

• Save these instructions.

Important safety precautions

WARNING

To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance,

follow basic precautions, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using this appliance.

2. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,

Safety information

3. Do not use the dryer to dry clothes which have traces of any ammable substance,

such as vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil, ammable chemicals, paint thinner, etc.,

or anything containing wax or chemicals, such as mops and cleaning cloths. Flammable

substances may cause the fabric to catch re by itself.

4. Do not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors and liquids near this or any

other appliance.

5. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is

necessary when the appliance is used near children.

6. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the

drying compartment.

7. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

8. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

9. Do not tamper with internal controls.

10.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any service unless

specically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-

repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

11.Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

12.Clean the lint screen before or after each load.

13.Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like

materials.

14.Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the

accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

15.The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by

qualied service personnel.

16.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 re.

To reduce the risk of re due to contaminated loads, the nal 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.

17.This appliance must be grounded. See “Electrical requirements” and ”Grounding” in

“Installation” section.

18.Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is

necessary when the appliance is used near children.

Safety information

19.Do not insert your hand under the dryer.

- This may result in injury.

20.Take care that children’s ngers are not caught in the door when closing it.

- This may result in injury.

21.The control board and inlet valve are intentionally not grounded and may present a

risk of electric shock only during servicing.

- Do not contact these parts while the appliance is energized.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of re or explosion:

• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with

gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances. They

emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a

cleaning solvent or ammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until

all traces of these ammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.

There are many highly ammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured

alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,

turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.

• Items containing foam rubber (which may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured

rubberlike materials must not be dried on a heat setting. Heated foam rubber

materials can, under certain circumstances, ignite spontaneously.

WARNING - What to do if you smell gas:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not turn on the appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch.

• Do not use any phone in your building.

• Clear the room, building or area of all occupants.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the re department.

• Installation and service must be performed by a qualied installer, service agency, or

the gas supplier.

Safety information

• Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil

or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain signicant amounts

of these oils.

• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous

combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed

to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation

reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items

can become hot enough to catch re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items

may prevent heat from escaping and can create a re hazard.

• All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be

dangerous.

Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate,

the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their

temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying

cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these

items when they are hot.
