precautions, including the following :
• Read all instructions before using the dryer.
• Before use, the dryer must be properly installed as described in
this manual.
• 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.
Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed
in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other
flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.

servicing unless specifically recommended in this Use and Care
Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand
and have the skills to carry out.

• Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the
door to the drying compartment.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be 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 must be 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.
CALIFORNIA SAFE DRINKING WATER AND TOXIC ENFORCEMENT ACT
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monxide, formaldehyde,
and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.
Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by
properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.
