WARNING - Risk of Fire

• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified

installer.

• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s

instructions and local codes.

• Do not install a clothes dryerwith flexible plastic venting materials.

If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific

type identified 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 airflow and increase the risk of fire.

• Do not install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.

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

instructions.

• Save these instructions.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:

• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed,

soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other

flammable or explosive substances. They emit vapors that could

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

cleaning solvent or flammable liquids or solids should not be placed

in the dryer until all traces of these flammable liquids or solids and

their fumes have been removed. There are many highly flammable

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 - Fire orexplosion hazard

• Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious

injury, death or property damage.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids

near this or any other appliance.

• Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer,

service agency, or the gas supplier.

• Do not install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.

Important safety precautions

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, 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, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could

ignite or explode.

3. Do not use the dryer to dry clothes which have traces of any flammable substance, such as vegetable

oil, cooking oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals, paint thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or

chemicals, such as mops and cleaning cloths. Flammable substances may cause the fabric to catch fire

by itself.

4. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable 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 tamperwith internal controls.

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

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 qualified 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 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 dryerbefore 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.

• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.

• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• 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 significant 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 fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these

kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire 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 dryerhot 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.
