6.

To avoid the possibility of fire or explo-

 

sion:

 

a. Do not wash items that have been

 

previously cleaned in, washed in,

 

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

 

dry-cleaning solvents, other flamma-

These items include acetone, dena- tured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers.

b. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

c. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water sys- tem 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. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

7.Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving.

8.Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appli- ance is used near children and pets.

9.Do not tamper with controls.

10.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in

published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

11.Unplug power supply cord before attempting to service your washer.

12.The agitator should not be removed. If the agitator is removed, it must be replaced by pushing down completely and the locking screw tightened before the washer is operated.

13.Store laundry aids and other material in a cool, dry place where children cannot reach them.

14.Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with vegetable or cooking oil. These items may contain some oil after laun- dering. Due to the remaining oil, the fab- ric may smoke or catch fire by itself.

15.Do not use chlorine bleach and ammo- nia or acids (such as vinegar or rust remover) in the same wash. Hazardous fumes can form.

16.Do not machine wash fiberglass materi- als. Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in following loads and cause skin irritation.

17.Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing compartment.

18.Inlet hoses are subject to damage and deterioration over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks and replace them every five years.

ble or explosive substances as they

give off vapors that could ignite or

explode. Hand wash and line dry any

items containing these substances.

Any material on which you have used a cleaning solvent, or which is saturated with flammable liquids or solids, should not be placed in the washer until all traces of these liq- uids or solids and their fumes have been removed.
