WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD
Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue jeans or brightly colored
cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your
dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. It is helpful to dry unstable dye items
inside out to prevent dye transfer.

cloth.

until all excess dye is removed.
