Check the following if the washer is not operating properly:
1.Power supply cord is plugged in.
2.Circuit breaker is not tripped or fuse is not blown.

4.Water faucets are turned on.
5.Inlet and drain hoses are not kinked.
6.Washer lid is closed.
7.Inlet valve can freeze if not protected from the weather.

WARNING
Fire Hazard
Never place items in the washer that are dampened with gasoline or other flammable fluids.
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils).
Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
It is recommended that fiberglass items not be washed in coin- operated washers. If these items are washed in the washer, run the washer through a complete cycle to rinse any residue away that might be left in the washer.
