SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
14. Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible
materials (lint, paper, rags, etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
15. 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. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final part
of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping
a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly
removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
16. Packaging material can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation!
Keep all packaging away from children.
17. Always check the inside of the dryer for foreign objects before loading laundry.
Keep the door closed when not in use.

by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

20. Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint,
dust, and dirt.
