DANGER

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death to persons when using dryer, follow these basic precautions: � Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, soaked in, washed in, or spotted with gasoline, cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. � To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics or articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubberlike materials, or rags coated with wax or paint. � Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or cooking oil in the dryer, as these oils may not be removed during washing. Due to the remaining oil, the fabric may catch on fire by itself.
