This washing machine comes with a manual, which includes installation, operation, and maintenance instructions. Please read all instructions carefully before using the washing machine.

Do not wash garments that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or treated with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They could give off vapors that may ignite or explode.

Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or any other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water, since these give off vapors that may ignite or explode.

Do not attempt to repair the machine, replace any of its components, or service it in any way, unless it is recommended in the maintenance instructions included in the manual.

Do not climb over the machine or lean on the open loading door.

Do not use an extension or adapter to connect the washing machine to the wall outlet.

The machine may only be used for its intended purposes.

Follow the washing instructions recommended by the garment manufacturer.

Before operating the machine, ensure that:

•It has been installed according to the installation instructions.

safety instructions

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 two weeks or more, turn on the hot-water faucets and let water flow for a few minutes before operating the washing machine. This will cause any built-up hydrogen gas to dissipate. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or keep an open flame on while the faucets are running.

Do not allow children to play over or inside the machine. Strict supervision is required when using the machine around children.

The door must be removed before the machine is disposed of or taken out of service.

Do not access the inside of the machine if the drum or the agitator are moving.
