Important safety instructions
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons when using your appliance, follow the basic
precautions, including the following:
● Read all instructions before using the appliance.
● Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable or explosive substances, as they
give off vapours that could ignite or explode.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the
appliance is used near children.
● Before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
● Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
● Do not install or store this appliance where it will be
exposed to the weather.
● Do not tamper with the controls.
● Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the
user-maintenance instructions.
● Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
● Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similarly textured rubber-like materials.
● Clean the lint filter before and after each load ( see
Maintenance ).
● Keep the area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surroundings free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
● The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be
cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
● Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.
Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a
chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

professional, use.
● This dryer must be used by adults, and the instructions in
this booklet should be followed carefully.
● Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet
hands or feet.

proper ventilation. The air intake at the front of the dryer
and the rear vents behind the machine should never be
obstructed (
see Installation ).

Grounding instructions
( see Installation )
WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service representative or
personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded!
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding
will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
DO NOT modify the plug provided with the appliance:
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician or exchange the cord with an
appropriate one rated for the dryer.
REFER TO THE RATING PLATE FOR VOLTAGE AND
CURRENT REQUIREMENTS
( see diagram for location ).
The dryer should be connected to the mains supply
via a suitable socket which is
accessible after
installing your dryer. This dryer must be connected to
30A INDIVIDUAL BRANCH CIRCUIT.
