[] Do not add gasoline, dry-charting 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 washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes.
