IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING! For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk

of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury or

loss of life.

The instructions in this manual and all other literature included with this washer are

not meant to cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Good, safe

practices and caution MUST be applied when installing, operating and maintaining any

appliance.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks
or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by
turning on
all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical
appliance
which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen
gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.
Install or store where it will not be exposed
to temperatures below freezing or exposed
to the weather, which could cause permanent damage
and invalidate the warranty.
Properly ground washer to conform with all governing
codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation
Instructions.
