SAFETY INFORMATION
CAUTION
• Do not sit on top of the dryer.
• Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid
things.
• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Do not place items in your dryer 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.
• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are
exposed to heat. Heat source such as your 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.
• Take care that children's fingers are not caught in door when closing it. This may
result in injury.
