WARNING! FIRE HAZARD
Dry only articles which have been washed in water.
Articles which have been cleaned, washed,
soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, oil, waxes, chemical solvents, alcohol,
turpentine, or other flammable or explosive
materials will retain these substances. Do not dry
articles which still contain these flammable or
explosive substances as they give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rub-
ber, plastics, or similarly textured rubberlike
materials.
Keep area around and underneath dryer free from
the accumulation of combustible materials, such
as lint, paper, rags, gasoline, and all other flam-
mable vapors and liquids.
Do not allow the storage of any material to obstruct
the ventilation air openings of the dryer.
To prevent extended drying time and risk of fire,
clean the lint screen after each load.
The interior of the machine and exhaust duct should
be cleaned periodically by a qualified service
technician.
The exhaust system should be periodically exam-
ined for damage to the exhaust duct and for free
operation of the exhaust deflector. Keep the area
around the exhaust opening and surrounding
areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust and
dirt.
Recent studies have shown that if vegetable oil con-
taminated materials are incompletely washed, a
carry-over and buildup of the oil may contribute
to a chemical reaction (spontaneous combustion)
that could cause a load to catch fire by itself. This
would be more likely to happen if the load were
left in the dryer after tumbling stopped or if
items were folded and stacked while warm.
For Gas Dryers
Gas dryers are equipped to operate on natural gas
only. To convert a gas dryer for other gases, the
services of a qualified service technician must be
obtained.

Important Safety
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, formalde-
hyde, and soot, due primarily to the incomplete com-
bustion of natural gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels.
Exhaust ducts should be kept free of obstructions and
properly exhausted dryers will minimize exposure.
IMPORTANT: Because of continuing product
improvements, Maytag reserves the right to
