Important Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before using this dryer.

 To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when

using this dryer, comply with the basic warnings listed below.

 Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

Prevent Fire

 

Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, soaked in, or

spotted with gasoline, cleaning solvents, kerosene, waxes, etc. Do not store these
items on or near the dryer. These substances give off vapors or chemical reactions
that could ignite or explode.

 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 prevent fire, do not use heat to dry items containing plastic, foam

rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials, or items containing feathers or
down. Use Air Fluff (No Heat) only.

 

Clean the lint screen before or after each load. The interior of the

dryer, lint screen housing and exhaust duct should be cleaned approximately every
18 months by qualified service personnel. An excessive amount of lint build-up in
these areas could result in inefficient drying and possible fire. See 

Care and

Cleaning

, page 6.

 

Do not operate the dryer if the lint screen is blocked, damaged or

missing. Fire hazard, overheating and damage to fabrics can occur. If your dryer has
a drying rack, always replace the lint screen when finished using the drying rack.

 

Keep area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free

from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.

 

Do not obstruct the flow of ventilating air. Do not stack or place

laundry or throw rugs against the front or back of the dryer.

 Do not spray any type of aerosol into, on or near dryer at any time.

 Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless

recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

 Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire, explosion, serious bodily

injury and/or damage to the rubber or plastic parts of the dryer.
