YOUR SAFETY IS IMPORTANT TO US

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your laundry center, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Read all instructions before using the laundry center.

•Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry- cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

•Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning 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 more than 2 weeks. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for more than 2

weeks, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for

several minutes before using the washing machine. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Because the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

•Do not allow children to play on or in the laundry center. Close supervision of

children is necessary when the laundry center is used near children.

•Before the laundry center is removed from service or discarded, remove the

washer lid and dryer door.

•Do not reach into the washer if the tub or agitator is moving.

•Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

•Do not install or store this laundry

center where it will be exposed to the weather.

•Do not tamper with controls.

•Do not repair or replace any part of the laundry center or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the Owner's Manual or in published user- repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

•Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended

by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

•Do not use heat to dry articles containing

foam rubber or similarly textured rubber- like materials.

•Clean lint screen before or after each load.

•Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

•The interior of the machine and exhaust

vent should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: The gas installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.

The laundry center must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
