5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may
be produced in a hot water system that has
not been used for two 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 gas. THE GAS IS
FLAMMABLE. DO NOT SMOKE OR USE AN
OPEN FLAME DURING THIS TIME.
6. Close supervision of children is necessary
when the washer is used near children. This is a
safety rule for all appliances.
7. Before the washer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the lid to the washing
compartment.
8. Do not reach into the washer if the washtub or
agitator is moving.
9. Do not install or store the washer where it will
be exposed to water and/or weather.
10. Do not tamper with the controls.
11. Do not repair or replace any part of the
washer, or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in the user-
maintenance instructions or in published user-
repair instructions that you understand and
have the skills to carry out.
12. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire,
DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter
to connect the washer to the electrical power
source.
13. Use your washer only for its intended purpose,
washing clothes.
14. ALWAYS disconnect the washer from
electrical supply before attempting any
service. Disconnect the power cord by
grasping the plug, not the cord.
15. Install the washer according to the
Installation Instructions. All connections for
water, drain, electrical power and grounding
must comply with local codes and be made by
licensed personnel when required. Do not do it
yourself unless you know how!
16. To reduce the risk of fire, clothes which have
traces of any flammable substances such as
vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil, flammable
chemicals, thinner, etc. or anything containing
wax or chemicals such as in mops and cleaning
cloths, must not be put into the washer. These
flammable substances may cause the fabric
to catch on fire by itself.
17. Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
18. Keep your washer in good condition. Bumping
or dropping the washer can damage safety
features. If this occurs, have your washer
checked by a qualified service person.
19. Replace worn power cords and/or loose plugs.
20. Be sure water connections have a shut-off
valve and that fill hose connections are tight.
CLOSE the shut-off valves at the end of each
wash day. Replace fill hoses every five years.
21. Lid MUST BE CLOSED any time the washer is
to agitate or spin. DO NOT by-pass the lid
switch by permitting the washer to agitate or
spin with the lid open. A brake will stop the
washtub within seconds if the lid is opened
during spinning. If the washtub does not stop
when the lid is opened, remove the washer
from use and call the service person.
22. Check washer for water leaks after each use. If
water is found, turn off the water supply and
call for service immediately. Don’t use washer
until it is repaired by an authorized service
agent.
