,WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to per-
sons when using your appliance, fol-
low basic precautions, including the
following:
Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
Do not dry articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed,
soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, or other flamma-
ble or explosive substances. They give
off vapors that could ignite or explode.
Do not allow children to play on or
in the appliance. Close supervision
is necessary when the appliance is
used near children. Always close the
door after use to prevent child hazards.
Before this appliance is removed
from service or discarded remove
the door to the drying compartment.
Do not reach into the dryer if the
drum is moving.
Do not install or store this appli-
ance where it will be exposed to
the weather.
Do not tamper
with the controls.
Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any ser-
vicing unless specifically recom-
mended in these Operating Instruc-
tions. Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be performed by qualified
personnel. Incorrectly repaired ma-
chines may pose a considerable risk to
the user.
Do not use fabric softeners or
products to eliminate static in the
dryer. Best results occur when a liquid
softener is used in the washing ma-
chine.
Do not use heat to dry articles con-
taining foam rubber or similarly tex-
tured rubber-like materials.
– Items containing, hairspray, nail pol-
ish remover or similar substances.
Clean the lint filter before or after
each load.
Keep the area around the air intake
(toekick) and adjacent surrounding
areas free from lint, dust and dirt.
The interior of the machine and ex-
haust duct should be cleaned peri-
odically by qualified personnel.
Do not place items exposed to oils
in your dryer. Items contaminated
with oils may contribute to a chemical
reaction that could cause the laundry
to catch fire.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of malfunction or break-
down, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord hav-
ing an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING – Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding con-
ductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electri-
cian or service representative or per-
sonnel if you are in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance: if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
