Important Safety Information READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT WARNING

DANGER: Risk of child entrapment. Before showing away an old appliance:

  • Remove the door or lid.
  • Leave the shelves in place so that children cannot easily climb into the appliance.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

The clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

  • Install the appliance according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.
  • To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
  • If local codes do not permit the 3-wire power supply cord connection, only 4-wire power supply cord must be used.

WARNING - Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD

Do not connect your appliance to extension cords or together with another appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the power cord. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord.

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person in order to avoid hazard.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Ensure that component parts are replaced with like components and that servicing is done by factory authorized service personnel, to minimize the risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities may be different or reduced, or who lack experience or knowledge, unless such persons receive supervision or training to operate the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in the 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 dry cycle occurs without heat as a cool down period. Avoid stopping the dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless items can be immediately removed and spread out to allow the accumulated heat to dissipate.

DANBY DDY040D4WDB - SAFETY REQUIREMENTS - 1

natural_image Warning symbol of a flame inside a triangle (no text or numbers)

Items that have been soiled with oil products can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing items that have been soiled with oil can prevent heat from escaping and create a fire hazard.

CONNECTION TO WATER OUTLET (with optional drain hose)

In appliances with a condenser unit, water accumulates in the water tank during the drying process. The accumulated water must be emptied after each drying cycle. There is an option of using a water drain hose to directly drain the water which replaces the requirement to manually drain the water tank.
