To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
....... _ Do not wash items that have been washed, soaked, or treated with gasoline, dry

could ignite or explode. Rinse by hand any material that has been exposed to cleaning
solvent or other flammable liquids or solids before putting in your washer. Be sure that
all traces of such liquids, solids, and fumes have been removed. Dangerous substances
include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, certain liquid household
cleaners and spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.
Do not put gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances
into the washer.
