Read all instructions before using the appliance.
As with any equipment that uses electricity and moving parts, potential hazards exist.
To safely operate this appliance, familiarize yourself with its operation and exercise care
when using it.
WARNING - Risk of Fire
• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by
a qualied installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.
• Do not install a clothes dryer with exible plastic
venting materials. If exible metal (foil type) duct
is installed, it must be of a specic type identied
by the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use
with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials
are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and
trap lint. These conditions will obstruct clothes
dryer airow and increase the risk of re.
• Do not install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death,
follow all installation instructions.
• Save these instructions.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of re or
explosion:
• Do not dry items that have been previously
cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other
ammable or explosive substances. They emit
vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material
that has been in contact with a cleaning solvent
or ammable liquids or solids should not be
placed in the dryer until all traces of these
ammable liquids or solids and their fumes
have been removed. There are many highly
ammable items used in homes, such as acetone,
denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some
liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.
• Items containing foam rubber (which may
be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured
rubberlike materials must not be dried on a heat
setting. Heated foam rubber materials can, under
certain circumstances, ignite spontaneously.

Important safety precautions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, 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 ammable 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 ammable substance,
such as vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil, ammable chemicals, paint thinner,
etc., or anything containing wax or chemicals, such as mops and cleaning cloths.
Flammable substances may cause the fabric to catch re by itself.
4. Do not store or use gasoline or other ammable 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
specically 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
qualied 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
re. To reduce the risk of re due to contaminated loads, the nal 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
“Installation” 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 ngers are not caught in the door when closing it.
– This may result in injury.
21. The control board and inlet valve are intentionally not grounded and may present a
risk of electric shock only during servicing.
– Do not contact these parts while the appliance is energized.
