IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

You may be slightly injured or cause damage to the product if you do not follow

instructions.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic pre-

cautions, including the following.

y Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.

y Before use, the washer must be properly installed as described in this manual.

y Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gaso-

line, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that

could ignite or explode.

y 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.

y 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.

y Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the

washer is used near children. A child might become trapped inside the washer and suffocate.

y Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the lid to prevent children from

climbing inside.

y Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather or freezing temperatures.

y Do not tamper with controls.

y Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible materials (lint, paper, rags,

etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable vapors and liquids.

y Service must be performed by a qualified service technician. Do not disassemble the washer.

y See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements.

y WARNING : This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

y ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.

y 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.
