Safety Instructions - Samsung DV5006 Owner's Instructions Manual

Safety Instructions

• Clean the lint filter before each load to prevent lint accumulation inside the dryer or in
the room. DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT LINTFILTER IN PLACE.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening, and around and underneath your appliances
free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags,
chemicals, etc.
• Regularly inspect the vent duct to ensure it has not been crushed or otherwise restricted.
• The interior of the dryer cabinet and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer should
be cleaned every 2 to 3 years, or more often if needed, by a qualified service person.
To Minimize the Possibility of Injury
• Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving. Before loading, unloaing or
adding clothes, wait until the drum has completely stopped.
• Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Skin irritation could result from the remain-
ing glass particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent dryer uses.
• The laundry process can reduce the flame retardance of some fabrics. To avoid such a
result, the garment manufacturer's care instructions should be followed very carefully.
• Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used in reach of or near children. Do
not allow children to play inside, on, or with this appliance or any discarded appliance.
Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping or packing materials properly. Before
discarding a dryer, or removing from service, remove the door of the dryer
compartment.
• Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches, fabric softeners, etc.) out of the
reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on container
labels to avoid personal injury.
• Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of
slipping.
• To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power
supply before attempting any maintenance or cleaning (except the removal and
cleaning of the lint filter).
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled,
or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
• Never climb on or stand on the dryer.
• DO NOTplace items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminaed with
cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a clothes load to
catch fire.
