WHEN USING YOUR DRYER
(cont.)
■ Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is
damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled,
or has missing or broken parts, including a
damaged cord or plug.
■ The interior of the machine and the exhaust
duct connection inside the dryer should be
cleaned at least once a year by a qualified
technician. See the Care and Cleaning section.
Do not use any type of spray cleaner when
cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or
electrical shock could occur.
■ If yours is a gas dryer, it is equipped with an
automatic electric ignition and does not have
a pilot light. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT WITH
A MATCH. Burns may result from having your
hand in the vicinity of the burner when the
automatic ignition turns on.
■ You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics
or reduce the static electricity in them by using
a dryer-applied fabric softener or an anti-static
conditioner. 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 use of these products are
the responsibility of the manufacturers of
those products and are not covered under
the warranty to this appliance.
WHEN NOT USING YOUR DRYER
■ Grasp the plug firmly when disconnecting this
appliance to avoid damage to the cord while
pulling. Place the cord away from traffic areas
so it will not be stepped on, tripped over or
subjected to damage.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
this appliance or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in this Owner’s Manual
or in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
■ Before discarding a dryer, or removing it from
service, remove the dryer door to prevent
children from hiding inside.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
