Rules for Safe Operation of Dryer
1. Be sure your dryer is installed properly in accordance with the
recommended instructions.
2. CAUTION
Be safe—shut main electrical power supply and gas supply off
externally before attempting service.
3. CAUTION
Never use drycleaning solvents: gasoline, kerosene, or other
flammable liquids in the dryer. Fire and explosion will
o c c u r .
Never put fabrics treated with these liquids into the dryer.
Never use these liquids near the dryer.
Always keep the lint screen clean.
Never use heat to dry items that contain plastic, foam or
sponge rubber, or rags coated with oils, waxes or paints. The
heat may damage the material or create a fire hazard. Rubber
easily oxidizes, causing excessive heat and possible fire.
Never dry the above items in the dryer.
4. Never let children play near or operate the dryer. Serious
injury will occur if a child should crawl inside and the dryer is
turned on.
5. Never use dryer door opening and top as a step stool.
6. Read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on packages of
laundry and cleaning aids. Heed any warnings or precautions.
7. Never tumble fiberglass materials in the dryer unless the
labels say they are machine dryable. Glass fibers break and
can remain in the dryer and could cause skin irritation if they
become mixed into other fabrics.
8. Reference
Lighting and shut-down instructions and wiring diagrams are
located on the rear wall of the dryer cabinet.
9. The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it
will be exposed to water and/or weather.
1. Install dryer so that you can use short, straight venting.
Turned elbows and long vent tubing tend to increase drying
time. Longer drying time means the use of more energy and
higher operating costs.
2. Operate dryer using full-size loads. Very large loads use extra
energy. Very small loads waste energy.
3. Dry light-weight fabrics separately from heavy fabrics. You
will use less energy and get more even drying results by
drying fabrics of similar weight together.
4. Clean the lint screen area daily. A clean lint screen helps give
faster, more economical drying.
5. Do not open the dryer door while drying. You let warm air
escape from the dryer into the room.
6. Unload the dryer as soon as it stops. This saves having to re-
start your dryer to remove wrinkles.
