Important Safety Instructions

Your safety and that of you children

Your washing machine has been built in compliance with safety regulations, to protect you and all your family.

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

1.Read all instructions before using the appliance.

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

3.Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.

4.Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door.

5.Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or drum is moving.

6.Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

7.Do not tamper with controls.

8.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have skills to carry out.

9.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.

10.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 a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated Hydrogen.

11.Do not use fabric softeners or products to reduce static unless recommended by the manufacturers of the fabric softener product.

12.Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

13.Check the Coin Trap every few months to remove any coins, buttons or similar size objects.

14.For vented washer-dryers keep the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

15.Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Item contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.
