To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
• Do not wash items that have been washed, soaked, or treated with gasoline, dry
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors that
could ignite or explode. Rinse by hand any material that has been exposed to cleaning
solvent or other flammable liquids or solids before putting in your washer. Be sure that
all traces of such liquids, solids, and fumes have been removed. Dangerous substances
include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, certain liquid household
cleaners and spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.
• Do not put gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances
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
minutes before using your washer. This will release any hydrogen gas build–up. Since
hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke or light an open flame during this time.
Ventilate immediately without touching the power plug if there is a gas leak.
Unplug the power cord before servicing your washer.
Do not reach into the appliance when the tumbler is moving.
Do not reach under the appliance with your hands or with an object as you may be injured
by the spinning board beneath the washer.
Do not let children play on or in your washer. The washer door does not open easily from
the inside, and children may be seriously injured if trapped inside.
Do not let children attempt to look into the washer as falling into the washer is extremely
dangerous and may be fatal.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they
have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the
appliance safely. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your washer yourself unless you fully
understand the recommended user–repair instructions and have the skills to carry them
out. Work done by an unauthorized person may void your warranty.
Store laundry detergents and other laundry supplies in a cool, dry place out of children’s
reach.
Disconnect the hoses and turn off the water when not using the washer.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service agent or
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Do not forcefully bend the power cable or place any heavy objects on the cable.
Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
Do not overload the power outlet with too many appliances.
