IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Refer to Installation/Operation Instructions, located on enclosed CD, for additional warnings.
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper grounding of the
washer.
3. Do not wash textiles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, kerosene,
waxes, cooking oils, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
4. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period,
before using a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. THE GAS IS FLAMMABLE, DO
NOT SMOKE OR USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING THIS TIME.
6. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is
used near children. This is a safety rule for all appliances.
7. Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing compartment.
8. Do not reach into the tub if the agitator is moving. Do not reach into the extractor if the basket is moving.
9. Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to weather.
10. Do not tamper with the controls.
11. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the
user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to
carry out.
12. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to connect the washer
to the electrical power source.
13. Never operate the washer with any guards and/or panels removed.
14. DO NOT operate the washer with missing or broken parts.
