IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of ÿre, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using the washer.
Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents, other °ammable or explosive
substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
°ammable 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 °ow from each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is °ammable,
do not smoke or use an open °ame 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 or lid.
Do not reach into the washer if the drum, tub or agitator is
moving.
Do not install or store this washer where it will be exposed
to the weather.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt
any servicing unless specifically recommended in this
manual or in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
See "Installation Instructions" for grounding instructions.
Do not wash water-resistant or water repellant-type
clothing.
Failure to closely follow these instructions may
result in an abnormal vibrating and out-of-balance
condition that could result in physical injury, property
damage, and/or appliance damage.
