Important safety instructions

WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to per- sons when using your appliance, fol- low basic precautions, including the following:

1.Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2.Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in or soaked in gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive sub- stances. They give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

3.Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervi- sion is necessary when the ap- pliance is used near children.

4.Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing compart- ment.

5.Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

6.Do not install or store this ap- pliance where it will be exposed to weather.

7.Do not tamper with the controls.

8.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance, or attempt any ser- vicing unless specifically recom- mended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user- repair instructions that you under- stand and have the skills to carry out.

9.Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or ex- plosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or ex- plode.

10.Under certain conditions, hy-

drogen 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 system has not been used for such a period, be- fore using the washing machine, 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 dur- ing this time.
