PREVENT INJURY

•To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the washer must be installed and electrically grounded by a qualified service person in accordance with local codes. Instal- lation instructions are packed in the washer for installer’s reference. Refer to INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS for detailed grounding proce- dures. If the washer is moved to a new location, have it checked and reinstalled by a qualified service person.

•To prevent personal injury or damage to the washer, the electrical power cord of the washer must be plugged into a properly grounded and polarized 3-prong outlet. The third grounding prong must never be removed. Never ground the washer to a gas pipe. Do not use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.

•Follow package directions when using laundry products. Incorrect usage can produce poison- ous gas - resulting in serious injury or death.

•Do not combine laundry products for use in 1 load unless specified on the label.

•Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar.
