cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.

recommended in this Use and Manual or in published
user-repair instructions that you understand and have
the skills to carry out.

• Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door to the drying compartment.

CAlIFORNIA SAFE DRINkING WATER AND TOxIC ENFORCEmENT ACT

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such
substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide,
formaldehyde, and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.
Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized
further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.
WARNINg: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is
used near children.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate
static unless recommended by the manufacturer of
the fabric softener or product.
• Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam
rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
• Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint,
dust, and dirt.
• The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be
cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
• Do not install or store the dryer where it will be
exposed to the weather.
• Always check the inside of the dryer for foreign
objects.
• Always clean the lint filter daily
• Do not store plastic, paper, or clothing that may
burn or melt on top of the dryer during operation.
• Check all pipe connections, internal and external,
for gas leaks using a non-corrosive leak detection
fluid. To reduce the risk of explosion or fire, DO NOT
USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS!
Gas connections should be checked twice a year for
leakage.
• The tumbler must not be operated if the airflow
switch does not operate properly. Faulty airflow switch
operation may cause an explosive gas mixture to
collect in the tumbler.
