SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION
1. Do not sit on top of the dryer.
2. Because of continuing product improvements, Koolmore America reserves the right
of change specifications without notice. For complete details, see the
Installation Instructions packed with your product before selecting cabinetry, making
cutouts, or beginning installation.
3. Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid things.
4. Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or
cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these
oils.
6. Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous combustion
increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat. Heat
source such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to
occur.
7. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to
catch fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping
and can create a fire hazard.
8. Take care that children’s fingers are not caught in door when closing it.
This may result in injury.
Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local
codes.
