WHEN USING YOUR DRYER (cont.)
■
Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is
damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled,
or has missing or broken parts, including a
damaged cord or plug.
■
The interior of the machine and the exhaust
duct connection inside the dryer should be
cleaned at least once a year by a qualified
technician. See the
Loading and Using the Dryer
section.
■
If yours is a gas dryer, it is equipped with an
automatic electric ignition and does not have
a pilot light.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT WITH A
MATCH.
Burns may result from having your hand
in the vicinity of the burner when the automatic
ignition turns on.
■
You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics
or reduce the static electricity in them by using
a dryer-applied fabric softener or an anti-static
conditioner. We recommend you use either a
fabric softener in the wash cycle, according to
the manufacturer’s instructions for those
products, or try a dryer-added product for
which the manufacturer gives written assurance
on the package that their product can be safely
used in your dryer. Service or performance
problems caused by use of these products are
the responsibility of the manufacturers of those
products and are not covered under the warranty
to this appliance.
