To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, serious injury or death to
persons and/or damage when
using your dryer, follow basic
precautions, including the
following.

using the dryer. Bosch dryers
are provided with Operating,
Care and Installation
Instructions.
2. Do not dry articles that have
been previously cleaned,
washed, soaked, or spotted
with gasoline, dry cleaning
solvents, other flammable, or
explosive substances as they
give off vapors that could ignite
or explode.
3. Do not allow children to play on
or in the appliance at any time;
severe injury or death could
result. Children should be kept
a safe distance away from
appliances at all times. Children
should only be permitted within
an appliance's vicinity if under
close, constant adult
supervision.
4. When children become old
enough to operate the
appliance, it is the responsibility
of the parents or guardians to
ensure that they are instructed
in safe practices by qualified
persons.
5. Do not allow children's toys, or
other items that might
encourage children to climb on
the dryer, to be stored on or in
the dryer or on shelves or in
cabinets or other storage areas
adjacent to the dryer.
6. Do not allow anyone to climb,
lean orhang on any part of the
dryer including any protruding
components such as the

7. To reduce the risk of fire,
clothes, cleaning rags, mop
heads and the like which have
traces of any flammable
substance, such as vergetable
oil, cooking oils or distillates,
waxes, fats, etc., must not be
placed in the dryer. These items
may contain some flammable
substance(s) even after

DOOR TO THE DRYING
COMPARTMENT.

exposed to the weather or
the elements, such as
water/moisture, dirt,
corrosive/salt air, and excessive
cold.
12. Do not tamper with the
controls.
13.
o not repair or replace any
D
part of the appliance or attempt
any service unless specifically
recommended in the user

containing foam rubber (may be
labeled latex foam) or similarly
textured rubber like materials.
Foam rubber materials can
ignite by spontaneous
combustion.
16. Clean lint screen before or after

including the light cover, may
expose live electrical circuits.
Always be sure to unplug the

them. Gasoline, combustible
materials and flammable
vapors, liquids, and substances
that pose a fire hazard must not
be stored near the dryer.

cooking oils in your dryer. Items
contaminated with cooking oils
may contribute to a chemical
