Read before operating your dryer.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons
when using the appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:
• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in,
soaked in, or spotted with petrol, dry-cleaning solvents, other
flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapours that
could ignite or explode. Any material on which you have used a
cleaning solvent, or which is saturated with 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, petrol, paraffin, some liquid household
cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers.
• Items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similar
textured rubber-like materials must not be dried on a heat setting. Foam
rubber materials when heated, can under certain circumstances produce
fire by spontaneous combustion.
Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision
of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children. This
appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons

weather.

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless
recommended for dryer use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
Clean the lint filter before or after each load.
Keep the area around the dryer free from lint accumulation, dust and dirt.
The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically
by qualified service personnel.
