• 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 FIL-
TER IN PLACE.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening, and around and underneath your appli-
ances free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper,
rags, chemicals, etc.
• Regularly inspect the exhaust duct to be sure it has not been crushed or otherwise
restricted.
• The interior of the dryer cabinet and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer
should be cleaned every 2 to 3 years, or more often if needed, by a qualified ser-
vice person.
To Minimize the Possibility of Injury
• Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving. Before loading, unloading or
adding clothes, wait until the drum has completely stopped.
• Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Skin irritation could result from the
remaining glass particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent
dryer uses.
• The laundry process can reduce the flame retardance of fabrics. To avoid such a
result, the garment manufacturer’s care instructions should be followed very care-
fully.
• Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not
allow children to play inside, on, or with this appliance or any discarded appli-
ance. Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping or packing materials properly.
Before discarding a dryer, or removing for service, remove the door of the dryer
compartment.
• Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches, fabric softeners, etc.) out of
the reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on con-
tainer labels to avoid personal injury.
• Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of
slipping.
• To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the
power supply before attempting any maintenance or cleaning (except the removal
and cleaning of the lint filter).
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassem-
bled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
• Never climb on or stand on the dryer top.
• 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.
