Important safety instructions

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this appliance.
2.
Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Do not use the dryer to dry clothes which have traces of any flammable substance, such as vegetable oil, cooking
oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals, paint thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or chemicals, such as mops
and cleaning cloths. Flammable substances may cause the fabric to catch fire by itself.
4. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids near this or any other appliance.
5. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance
is used near children.
6. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
8. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
9. Do not tamper with internal controls.
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 manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
12. Clean the lint screen before or after each load.
13. Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
14. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
15. The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
16. 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 load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the
final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before
the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
17. This appliance must be grounded. See "Electrical requirements" and "Grounding" in "Installing your dryer"
section.
18. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance
is used near children.
19. Do not insert your hand under the dryer.
• This may result in injury.
20. Take care that children's fingers are not caught in the door when closing it.
• This may result in injury.
21. Control board and inlet valve are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric shock only during
servicing.
• Do not contact this part while appliance is energized.
