To minimize the possibility
of a fire hazard:
Do not use heat to dry articles
containing rubber, plastic, or
similar materials (such as
padded bras, tennis shoes,
galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs,
baby pants, plastic bags, etc.) as

produce fire by spontaneous
combustion.

degreasers, drycleaning solvents,
Dryer-applied

fabric softeners or
off vapors that could ignite or
explode. Do not add these
'
anti-static conditioners
substances to the wash water, and
do not use these substances
around your appliance during
operation.
Any article on which you have
used a cleaning solvent, or which
contains flammable materials
(such as cleaning cloths, mops,
towels used in beauty salons,
restaurants or barber shops, etc.)
must not be placed in or near the
dryer until all traces of these
flammable liquids or solids and
their fumes have been removed.
There are many highly flammable
items used in homes such as:
acetone, denatured alcohol,
gasoline, kerosene, some
household cleaners, some spot
removers, turpentines, waxes, wax
removers and products containing
petroleum distillates.
Clean the dryer lint filter
before each load to prevent lint
accumulation inside the dryer or
in the room. DO NOT OPERATE

and the exhaust duct connection
inside the dryer should be
cleaned periodically by a
qualified individual.
Keep area around and
underneath your appliance free
from the accumulation of
combustible materials, such as
lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
Youmay wish to soften your
laundered fabrics or reduce the
static electricity in them. We
recommend you use either a
fabric softener in the wash cycle,
according to the manufacturer's
instructions for those products, or
try a dryer-added product for
which the manufacturer gives
written assurance on the package
that their product can be safely
used in your dryer.
Service or performance problems
caused by the use of these products
are the responsibility of the
manufacturers of those products
and are not covered by the warranty @
of this appliance.
SAW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
The laundry process can reduce
the flame retardancy of fabrics. To
avoid such a result, the garment
manufacturer's care instructions
should be followed very carefully.
