This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle
that is not grounded adequately or not in accordance with local and national codes. See
installation instructions for information about grounding this appliance.
Do not sit on top of the dryer.
Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.
Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.
Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.
Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
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.
Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous combustion
increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat. Heat
sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to
occur. 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.
All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate, the
hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their temperature. Never
remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying cycle until the items have run
through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these items when they are hot..
