Maytag MDG28PD User Instructions

1. Clean lint screen before each use.
2. Sort and load clothes.
3. Close door.
■ This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles
that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other
purpose.
■ WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any
electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear
the area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.
■ Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.
■ Do not use this dryer if industrial chemicals have been
used for cleaning. The possible presence of residual
quantities of aggressive or decomposed chemicals in
the load may produce damage to the dryer and harmful
fumes.
■ THIS DRYER SHALL NOT BE USED TO DRY OFF
SOLVENTS OR DRY CLEANING FLUIDS.
■ This dryer is not designed for drying items that may create
an explosive atmosphere inside the dryer and must not be
used for this purpose.
■ Pressing the STOP button will stop the dryer's operation;
the cycle will need to be reselected to start the dryer
again.
■ The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left
at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be
damaged.
■ WARNING: Never stop 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 (avoids
spontaneous combustion risk).
■ In case of electricity supply failure, remove the load
quickly and spread it out to avoid spontaneous
combustion risk.
■ This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the dryer by a person responsible for
their safety.
■ Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the dryer.
■ Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
■ Oil affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially
when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in
the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape,
the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking, or storing oil affected items can prevent heat
from escaping and create a fire hazard.

4. Insert coins (if applicable).
5. Select FABRIC SETTING.
■ If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or
cooking oil, or that have been contaminated by hair care
products, be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first
be washed in hot water with extra detergent — this will
reduce, but not eliminate the hazard.
■ Items that have been soiled with substances such as
acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in the
dryer.
■ Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles, and clothes or
pillows filled with foam rubber pads should not be dried in
the dryer.
■ Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as
specified by the fabric softener instructions.
■ Emergency stop control: After installation, access to
mains plug or disconnection from mains supply via a
double-pole switch must be ensured at all times in order
to ensure immediate deactivation of the dryer in case of
emergency.
■ When loading or re-loading the dryer, avoid touching hot
metal parts of the drum (burn risk).
■ Do not use this dryer if it appears damaged or defective.
Contact the owner.
■ If drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,
disconnect the dryer from the electricity supply before
gently removing the blockage.
■ Remove all flammable objects such as lighters and
matches from pockets of items to be dried in the dryer.
