Read all instructions before using the washer.

NEVER wash items cleaned, washed, soaked in or spotted with wax, paint, gas- oline, or flammable fluids in the washer. The fumes can create a FIRE HAZARD or EXPLOSION. ALWAYS hand launder and air dry fabrics containing these materials.

NEVER allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

When discarding an old washer, AL- WAYS remove the lid to prevent acciden- tal entrapment.

DO NOT reach into the washer basket while it is filling with water, while agitator is moving or while basket is spinning. If the lid is opened while the basket is spinning, the basket will automatically stop in a few seconds.

DO NOT tamper with controls.

NEVER use or store flammable fluids (dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene) in or near your washer. DO NOT add flamma- ble fluids to the wash water. These sub- stances give off vapors that can create a FIRE HAZARD or EXPLOSION.

l If hot water has not been used recently (usually 2 weeks or longer), hydrogen gases may build up in the water heater and the hot water pipes. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent injury or damage, before using your washer, turn on all hot water faucets and allow water to run for several minutes. This will allow gases to escape. DO NOT smoke or use any open flame near the faucet while it is open.

l You are responsible for making sure that your washer:

- is installed, repaired, and has parts re- placed by a qualified person.

-is properly installed and leveled on a floor that can support the weight?

-is connected to the correct 3-prong out- let, electric supply, water supply and drain:

-is properly earthed:

-is properly maintained:

-is protected from the weather and kept where the temperature will not fall below freezing.

*See the “Installation Instructions.”

Additional safety instructions and your responsibilities

ALWAYS store detergent, laundry aids and other materials in a cool, dry place where children can’t reach them - in a locked cabi- net if possible.

ALWAYS read and follow instructions on packages of detergents and laundry aids - especially warninqs and precautions.

HAZARDOUS FUMES can be formed if chlorine bleach is used in the same wash as ammonia or acids such as vinegar or rust remover.

ALWAYS unplug the power supply cord be- fore attempting to service the washer.

DO NOT machine wash glass fibre mate- rials. Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in following loads and cause skin irritation.

You are responsible for making sure that your washer:

l is used only for jobs normally expected of home automatic washers.

l is not run by children or anyone unable to operate it properly.
