Safety InformationOperating InstructionsTroubleshooting TipsCustomer Service

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

GASOLINE & FLAMMABLE VAPORS

■Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■Installation and service must be performed by a qualified

installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

IF YOU THINK YOU SMELL GAS:

Do not try to light a match, or cigarette, or turn

on any gas or electrical appliance.

Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use

any phone in your building.

Clear the room, building or area of all

occupants.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a

neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s

instructions carefully.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the

fire department.

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of

substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of

potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances,

namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused

primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.

Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion.

Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly

venting the dryer to the outdoors.

For your safety, the information in this manual must be

followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric

shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury,

or loss of life.

YOUR LAUNDRY AREA

■Keep the area underneath

and around your appliances

free of combustible materials,

such as lint, paper, rags,

chemicals, etc.

■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.

■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.

each load to prevent lint

accumulation inside the

dryer or in the room.

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

WARNING!

Customer ServiceTroubleshooting TipsOperating InstructionsSafety Information

materials (such as cleaning

cloths, mops, towels used in

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

rubber, plastic, or similar

materials such as padded

bras, tennis shoes, galoshes,

of electric shock, unplug this

appliance from the power

supply or disconnect the

dryer at the household

distribution panel by

removing the fuse or

WHEN USING YOUR DRYER

■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

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

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
