into the washer.

• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system–such

as your hot water heater-- that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN

GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If your hot water system has not been used for two weeks or

more, turn on all hot water faucets in your home, and let the water flow for several

Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration over time. Check the hoses periodically

for bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks, and replace them every five years.

Ensure pockets are free from small irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign materials such

as coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your washer.

Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal.

Water pressure less than 20 psi(137kPa) may cause water valve failure, or may not allow the

water valve to shut off completely. Or, it may extend the fill time beyond what your washer

controls allow, resulting in your washer turning off. A time limit is built into the controls in the

event of an internal hose becoming loose and flooding your home.

The water faucets must be within 4 ft.(122cm) of the back of your washer for the inlet hoses

provided with your washer.

Here’s how it works: A grapefruit-sized device alongside the tub uses two pure silver plates the size of large

chewing gum sticks as electrodes in the water inlet system. The resulting positively charged silver atoms

- Silver ions (Ag+) -- are sprayed into the tub during the wash and final rinse cycle.

During tests, this process removed more than 99.9% of bacteria.

Extra delicate blouses, shirts, or even lingerie that can’t be washed in hot water can now be sanitized

effectively without the adverse effects of hot water. The silver plates can easily be replaced by a Service

Technician if needed.
