BOSCH washers are provided with an Operating, Care and Installation Instructions Manual. Read and understand all instructions before using the washing machine. 2. Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. 3.

If the hot water system has not been used for this length of time, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow out of each faucet for several minutes before using the washing machine. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame while carrying out this procedure. 5.
