1. DO NOT attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete the repair in a
safe and satisfactory manner.

• Turn off water supply for steam models.
• Turn off gas supply for gas dryers.
4. Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.

Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer.Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer
is used near children. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.
Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other packing materials after the dryer is unpacked.
Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can become
airtight chambers.
Keep laundry products out of children's reach. To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings on product
labels.
Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the dryer door to prevent accidental
entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
