Thank you for buying a Roper@ appliance.

You have purchased a quality, worldclass home appliance. Years of engineering experience have gone into its manufacturing.

Also, please complete and mail the Ownership Registration Card provided with your appliance.

Your safety is important to us.

This guide contains safety symbols and statements. Please pay special attention to these symbols and follow any instructions given. Here is a brief explanation of the use of each symbol.

This symbol will help alert you to such dangers as personal injury, bums, fire and electrical shock.
