WARNING
Important Safety Instructions
WARNING! FIRE HAZARD
Do not place into your dryer items that have been
spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil.
Even after being washed, these items may contain
significant amounts of these oils. The remaining oil
can ignite spontaneously. The potential for
spontaneous ignition increases when the items
containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed
to heat. Heat sources, such as your clothes dryer,
can warm these items, allowing an oxidation
reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If
this heat cannot escape, the items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing
these kinds of items may prevent heat from
escaping and can create a fire hazard.
All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain
vegetable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra
detergent will reduce, but will not eliminate, the
hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these
items to reduce the items’ temperature. Never
remove these items from the clothes dryer hot or
interrupt the drying cycle until the items have run
through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack
these items when they are hot.
Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a
dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected
by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you
purchase and install an UL approved gas detector.
Install and use in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.

Notice & Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the
burning of gas can result in low–level exposure to
some of the listed substances, including benzene,
formaldehyde, and soot, due primarily to the
incomplete combustion of natural gas or liquid
petroleum (LP) fuels. Exhaust ducts should be kept
free of obstructions and properly exhausted dryers will
minimize exposure.
Note: Because of continuing product
improvements, Maytag reserves the right to change
specifications without notice. For complete details,
see the Installation Instructions packed with your
product before selecting cabinetry, making cutouts
or beginning installation.
