California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.

Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

Warning

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following sections.

Safety Precautions

  • Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
  • This dryer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet with your dryer, you can obtain one by contacting the service location nearest you.
  • Properly ground to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation Instructions.
  • Install or store where the temperature is above 50^ . (10°C.). Do not install the dryer where it will be exposed to the weather.
  • Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.

- Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside. Carefully follow the Exhausting details in the Installation Instructions.

- Exhausting electric dryers to the outside is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to prevent large amounts of moisture and lint from being blown into the room. Carefully follow the Exhausting details in the Installation Instructions.

- Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Manual or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

- When disconnecting this appliance pull by the plug rather than the cord to avoid damage to the cord or junction of cord and plug. Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

  • Exhaust Duct—See Installation Instructions. Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4" diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet or for exhausting to the outside. USE OF PLASTIC OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE. PUNCTURED DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE IF IT COL-LAPSES OR BECOMES OTHERWISE RESTRICTED IN USE OR DURING INSTALLATION.
  • Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic, or similar materials (such as padded bras, tennis shoes, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants, plastic bags, pillows, etc.) as these materials may melt or burn. Also, some rubber materials, when heated, can under certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
  • Do not store items that may burn or melt (such as clothing, paper material, plastics or plastic containers, etc.) on top of the dryer during operation.
  • Garments labeled “Dry Away from Heat” or “Do not Tumble Dry” (such as life jackets containing Kapok) must not be put in your dryer.

- Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, paint, oil, gasoline, degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or explode. Do not add these substances to the wash water. Do not use these substances around your washer and/or dryer during operation.

- Any article on which you have used a cleaning solvent, or which contains flammable materials (such as cleaning cloths, mops, towels used in beauty salons, restaurants, or barber shops, etc.) must not be placed in or near the dryer until all traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed. There are many highly flammable items used in homes such as acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentines, waxes, wax removers and products containing petroleum distillates.

Read all safety information before using

  • Clean the lint filter before each load to prevent lint accumulation inside the dryer or in the room. DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT THE LINT FILTER IN PLACE.
  • Keep the area around and underneath your appliances free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
  • The interior of the machine and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer should be cleaned periodically by a qualified individual.
  • Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving. Before loading, unloading or adding clothes, wait until the drum has completely stopped.
  • Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Skin irritation could result from the remaining glass particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent dryer uses.
  • The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result, the garment manufacturer's care instructions should be followed very carefully.

  • Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play inside, on, or with this appliance or any discarded appliance. Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping or packing materials properly. Before discarding a dryer, or removing from service, remove the door of the dryer compartment.

  • Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches, fabric softeners, etc.) out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on container labels to avoid personal injury.
  • Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.
  • To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply or disconnect the dryer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or cleaning (except the removal and cleaning of the lint filter).
  • NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to an OFF position does NOT disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

  • Do not tamper with the controls.

  • Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
  • Never climb on or stand on the dryer top.
  • If yours is a gas dryer, it is equipped with an automatic electric ignition and does not have a pilot light. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT WITH A MATCH. Burns may result from having your hand in the vicinity of the burner when the automatic ignition may turn on.

- You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics or reduce the static electricity in them by using dryer-applied fabric softeners or an anti-static conditioner. We recommend you use either a fabric softener in the wash cycle, according to the manufacturer's instructions for those products, or try a dryer-added product for which the manufacturer gives written assurance on the package that their product can be safely used in your dryer.

Service or performance problems caused by the use of these products are the responsibility of the manufacturers of those products and are not covered under the warranty of this appliance.

Specialty Care Guide

RCA BJLR473EVWW - Specialty Care Guide - 1

Always follow Fabric Manufacturer's Care Label or instructions when laundering.

Otherwise use the information below as a general guide.

Item Suggested Care

Pillows Mend any holes or weak seams where feather or filling could escape. Dry only one pillow at a time. Stop dryer occasionally and shake pillow, redistributing filling for even drying. Check pillow at the end of drying time. If it is not completely dry, reset dryer for more drying time.Dry on low heat only.CAUTION: Do not dry pillows containing foam rubber.
BlanketsAdd 2-4 dry towels and one blanket and set timer for 20-25 minutes. Dry only one blanket at a time. Do not set control for more than 25 minutes. At the end of drying cycle block the blanket back to its original shape. Allow blanket to dry thoroughly before storing.
Cotton Use a medium heat drying setting.Synthetic Use a low heat drying setting.Down Use a low heat drying setting.
Extra Large Items Use a low heat drying setting.(Includes comforters, blankets and mattress pads.)Dry only one extra large item at a time. Set dryer for 20 minutes. When time is up, check and redistribute load. Reset dryer for 15 minutes. When time is up, check and redistribute load. Reset timer and check at 5 minute intervals to ensure articles do not fill dryer drum. Large, wet articles should have ample room in the dryer, but as they dry and fluff up they may not have room to tumble.CAUTION: Items without room to tumble may block air flow and could result in scorched items. Dry mattress pads separately. Use a low heat drying setting.

Sorting

As a general rule, if clothes are sorted properly for the washer, they are sorted properly for the dryer.

Sort by color

(Separate colorfast from non-colorfast fabrics*)

- Whites

- Lights

- Darks

Separate by fabric type

• Cottons and linens

• Permanent press cottons and blends

• Synthetic and poly knits

- Delicates

Separate lint producers from lint collectors

- Lint producers: terry cloth and chenille

- Lint collectors: velveteen and corduroy

Sort by weight

- Heavy Items

- Light Items

* Non-colorfast fabrics may bleed or fade. Sort by individual color.

Loading Hints

- Avoid drying very small loads.

- Sort clothes by weight so you won't have to run an extra cycle for one or two heavier, slower drying items.

- Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. This may cause fabric softener stains.

- Do not overload. This causes inefficient operation and unnecessary wrinkling. Clothes need to tumble freely.

- Do not dry the following items:

- Fiberglass items

- Woolens

- Rubber coated items

- Plastics

- Items with plastic trim

- Foam-filled items

Care & Cleaning
