BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
_I_WARNI|_!t|G= • To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury when using this
appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following.
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as
described in this owner's manual.
Before use, the washer must be properly installed as
described in this manual.
Do not wash 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 the washer,
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 the washer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when the
washer is used near children.
Before the washer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to prevent children from
climbing inside.
Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to the weather or freezing temperatures.
Do not tamper with controls.
Keep the area underneath and around your
appliances free of combustible materials (lint, paper,
rags, etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or
attempt any servicing other than as described in this
manual. We strongly recommend that any service be
performed by a qualified technician.
See Installation Instructions for grounding
requirements.
ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your
washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may
contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a
load to catch fire.
Use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
only as recommended by the manufacturer.
This washer is not designed for maritime use or for
mobile installations such as in RVs, aircraft, etc.
Turn off the water faucets and unplug the washer if
the machine is to be left for an extended period of
time, such as during vacations.
