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 fabric
manufacturer.
12. Do not use heat to dry articles
containing foam rubber (may be
labeled latex foam) or similarly
textured rubber-like materials.
Foam rubber materials can ignite
by spontaneous combustion.
13. Do not dry articles containing
spunbonded olefin. Spunbonded
olefin can melt and can ignite by
spontaneous combustion.
14. Clean lint screen before and after
each load. Excess lint buildup can
damage the dryer and create a
potential fire hazard.
15. Keep area around the exhaust
opening and adjacent surrounding
areas free from the accumulation
of lint, dust and dirt. An obstructed
port might reduce the airflow and
cause overheating.
16. The interior of the machine and
exhaust duct should be cleaned
periodically by qualified service
personnel.
17. Removing any panel or cover,
including the light cover, may
expose live electrical circuits.
Removing any panel, including the
round service panel in the front,
can also expose sharp edges and
points as well as hot surfaces.
Always unplug the dryer from the
electrical supply before attempting
any service. Disconnect the power
cord by grasping the plug, not the
cord.
18. Store all laundry chemicals and
aids in a cool dry place according
to the manufacturer's instructions.
Make sure children cannot reach
them. Gasoline, combustible
materials and flammable vapors,
liquids, and substances that pose
a fire hazard must not be stored
near the dryer.
19. Do not sit on top of the dryer.

To avoid fire hazards, do not use
an extension cord, an adapter, or
any other non-manufacturer
supplied electrical connector or
cord, to connect the dryer to the
electrical supply. Dryers are
powerful machines, and must
have dedicated electrical outlets.
Always check clothing pockets
and shake out all laundry items
before placing into dryer;
inappropriate objects can damage
the dryer and certain items like
cigarette lighters can pose a fire
hazard.
To reduce the risk of fire and
electrical shock hazards, do not
use the dryer if the power cord is
frayed or damaged, or if the plugs
are loose.
Do not operate the dryer if any
guards and/or panels have been
removed or if any parts are missing
or broken.
Do not bypass any safety devices.
Do not use a plastic or non-metal
flexible duct with this dryer. Plastic
or non-metal flexible duct is a
potential fire hazard.
Do not operate this dryer until you
are sure that the dryer has been
installed according to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
and that installation and electrical
grounding are in compliance with
all local regulations and/or other
applicable regulations and
requirements.
Failure to install, maintain and/or
operate the dryer according to
the manufacturer's instructions
may result in injury and/or
damage.
To avoid floor damage and mold
growth, do not let spills or
splashout to cause standing water
around or under the appliance.
No other fuel-burning appliances
shall be installed in the same
closet as the dryer.
Make sure that all water
connections to the dryer have a
shut-off valve that is readily
accessible. Close the appliance
water shut-off valve(s) at the end
of each day of use.
Check the fill hose connections on
a regular basis to ensure that they
are tight and not leaking.
