Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
– Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or
the gas supplier.
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
• Clear the room, building, or area of all occupants.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
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.
