IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow
WARNING
basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
DO NOT wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
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.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for 2 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, turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, DO NOT smoke or use an open flame during this time.
DO NOT allow children to play on or in this appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when this appliance is
used near children.
Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid.
DO NOT reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving. Wait until the machine has completely stopped before
opening the lid.
DO NOT install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
DO NOT tamper with controls.
DO NOT repair or replace any part of this appliance 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.
Keep the area around your appliance free of combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags and chemicals.
DO NOT operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts
including a damaged cord or plug.
Unplug the appliance or turn off the circuit breaker before servicing. Pressing the Power or Start/Pause button DOES NOT
disconnect power.
DO NOT mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar or rust remover. A toxic gas may be produced.
DO NOT leave the washer door open. An open door could entice children to crawl inside the washer.
The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. Carefully follow the garment manufacturer's wash and care
instructions.
