personal safety of the operator, user, servicer, and

those maintaining the machine.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,

serious injury or death to persons when

using your washer, follow these basic

precautions:

DANGER

W023E

DANGER indicates the presence of a

hazard that will cause severe personal

injury, death, or substantial property

damage if the danger is ignored.

1. Read all instructions before using the washer.

2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in

the INSTALLATION manual for the proper

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.

CAUTION

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.

CAUTION indicates the presence of a

hazard that will or can cause minor

personal injury or property damage if the

caution is ignored.

Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”

and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.

IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used

to inform the reader of specific procedures where

minor machine damage will occur if the procedure

is not followed.

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.

NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate

installation, operation, maintenance or servicing

information that is important but not hazard

related.

7. Before the washer is removed from service or

discarded, remove the door to the washing

compartment.

8. Do not reach into the washer if the wash drum is

moving.

Drain Connection

Providing an adequate drain arrangement and capacity

is essential. Ideally, the machine should dump through

a 3 inch pipe directly into a sump or floor drain.

11.63 in.

(295 mm)

Connection to a drain must be vented to prevent an air-

lock or siphon effect and must be flexible. Increasing

drain hose length, installing elbows or causing bends

will decrease drain flow rate which might harm washer

performance. If the drain arrangement is inadequate,

the machine will not extract properly nor will it

discharge all the water. If proper drain line size is not

available or practical, a surge tank of adequate design

would be required.

F232158

Installation

Each of the hoses should have a screen filter installed

to keep rust and other foreign particles out of the

solenoid valves. These connections should be supplied

by a hot and a cold water line at least 3/4 inch size for

each. Installation of additional washers will require

proportionately larger water lines. Refer to Table 3.

Suitable air cushions should be installed in supply

lines to prevent “hammering.” If the water pressure is

above 60 psi, flexible copper tubing should be used in

place of the rubber hoses.

Water Connection

Separate hot and cold plumbing lines (3/4 inch pipe or

larger) with individual shut-off valves must be

provided. Hot water should be a minimum of 160°F.

Best performance will be realized if water is provided

at a pressure of 30-85 psi. Although the machine will

function properly at a lower pressure, excessive fill

times will occur.

Use flexible hoses or equivalent flexible lines. The

hoses should hang in a large loop. Do not allow to

kink.

Maintenance

5. Salty or acidic solutions should not be allowed to

evaporate and dry on stainless steel. They may

cause corrosion. Wash off the solution after

using.

Care and Maintenance of Stainless

Steel

The following points on the care and maintenance of

stainless steel surfaces should be observed in order to

maintain the natural beauty and prolong its service

life.

6. Permanent direct contact with other materials,

such as wood or carbon steel, should be avoided.

7. Sanitizers or sterilizing solutions should not be

left in stainless steel equipment for prolonged

periods of time. These solutions often contain

chlorine which may cause pitting corrosion. The

stainless should be cleaned and rinsed thoroughly

after using.

1. Cleanliness is of utmost importance. Common

deposits of dirt and grease can be quickly

removed with a detergent and water solution.

Whenever possible, the metal should be

thoroughly rinsed and dried after washing.

Periodic cleaning will maintain the bright surface

appearance and help prevent corrosion.

8. Rust appearing on stainless steel sometimes leads

to the belief that the stainless is rusting. The

source of the rust may actually be some iron or

steel part not made of stainless, such as a nail or

screw. One remedy is to paint all carbon steel

parts with a heavy protective coating. Stainless

steel fasteners should be employed whenever

possible.

2. Deposits that adhere to the surface of the

stainless steel should be removed especially from

crevices and corners. When using abrasive

cleaners, always rub in the direction of the polish

lines or “grain” of the stainless steel to avoid

scratch marks showing. Never use ordinary steel

wool or steel brushes on stainless steel. Iron

particles from steel wool and brushes made of

carbon steel may become imbedded in the

surface, causing rust. Use stainless steel wool or

soft non-metal bristle brushes.

CAUTION

Follow the manufacturer’s advice

whenever cleaning agents or other

chemicals are used, inside or outside the

machine. Some cleaners may be

use may cause personal injury or

damage. Do not use volatile cleaning

solvents such as acetone, lacquer

thinners or enamel reducers. Never use
