RISK OF FIRE! - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following: • Read all instructions before using the appliance. • Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, cooking oils, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. • Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Children should be closely supervised when near the appliance. • Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment. • Do not tamper with controls. • Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of the appliance or perform any servicing unless specifically recommended in this guide. • Do not use fabric softeners or dryer sheets unless the manufacturer gives written assurance that the product will not damage a drying cabinet. • Do not heat-dry items containing: vinyl, plastic, foam rubber or similarly textured rubberlike materials, fiberglass, or wool unless wool unless the label specifies "washable". • Keep the area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt. • The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by an authorized ASKO service agent. • Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your drying cabinet. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. • A clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. • Electrical installation, if required, must be done by a licensed electrician. • Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes. • Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be a specific type identified by the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct the clothes dryer's airflow and increase the risk of fire. • To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions. • To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance must be vented outdoors or the equivalent. Do not vent into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl space, or a concealed space of a building. • Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather. • Do not operate appliance while away from the home.
