WARNING!
YOUR LAUNDRY AREA
Keep the area underneath and around your
appliances free of combustible materials (lint, paper,
rags, etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry
to reduce the possibility of slipping.
Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is
used by or near children. Do not allow children to
play on, with or inside this or any other appliance
.
Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches,
etc.) out of the reach of children, preferably in a
locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on container
labels to avoid injury.
Keep the area around the exhaust opening
and adjacent surrounding areas free from the
accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
Never climb on or stand on the dryer top.
WHEN USING YOUR DRYER
Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving.
Before loading, unloading or adding clothes, wait
until the drum has completely stopped.
Clean the lint filter before each load to prevent lint
accumulation inside the dryer or in the room. DO
NOT OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT THE LINT
FILTER IN PLACE.
Do not wash or dry articles that have been
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with
combustible or explosive substances (such as
wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry-cleaning
solvents, kerosene, etc.). These substances give off
vapors that may ignite or explode. Do not add these
substances to the wash water. Do not use or place
these substances around your washer or dryer
during operation.
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
clothes load to catch fire
.
Any article on which you have used a cleaning
solvent or that contains flammable materials (such
as cleaning cloths, mops, towels used in beauty
salons, restaurants, or barber shops, etc.) must
not be placed in or near the dryer until solvents or
flammable materials have been removed. There are
many highly flammable items used in homes such
as acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene,
some household cleaners, some spot removers,
turpentines, waxes, wax removers and products
containing petroleum distillates.
The laundry process can reduce the flame
retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,
carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s care
instructions.
Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic
or similar materials such as padded bras, tennis
shoes, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants,
plastic bags, pillows, etc. that may melt or burn.
Some rubber materials, when heated, can under
certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous
combustion.
Do not store plastic, paper or clothing that may
burn
or melt on top of the dryer during operation.
Garments labeled Dry Away from Heat or Do Not
Tumble Dry (such as life jackets containing Kapok)
must not be put in your dryer.
Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer.
Skin irritation could result from the remaining
particles that may be picked up by clothing during
subsequent dryer uses.
To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug
this appliance from the power supply or disconnect
the dryer at the household distribution panel by
removing the fuse or switching off the circuit
breaker before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning (except the removal and cleaning of the lint
filter). NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to an
off position or pressing PAUSE does NOT disconnect
the appliance from the power supply.
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.
