To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:

CAUTION • Do not wash items that have been washed, soaked, or treated with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Rinse by hand any material that has been exposed to cleaning solvent or other flammable liquids or solids before putting in your washing machine. Be sure that all traces of such liquids, solids, and fumes have been removed. Dangerous substances include acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, certain liquid household cleaners and spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.

Do not put gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances into the washing machine.

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system–such as your hot water heater -- that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If your hot water system has not been used for two weeks or more, turn on all hot water taps in your home, and let the water flow for several minutes before using your washing machine. This will release any hydrogen gas build–up. Since hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke or light an open flame during this time.

Ventilate immediately without touching the power plug if there is a gas leak. Unplug the power cord before servicing your washing machine.

Before each wash, empty the pockets of your laundry. Small, irregularly shaped hard objects, such as coins, knives, pins, and paperclips could damage your washing machine. Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal metal.

Do not open the door of the washing machine if you can still see water. Check that the water has drained before opening the door.

Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your washing machine yourself unless you fully understand the recommended user–repair instructions and have the skills to carry them out. Work done by an unauthorized person may void your warranty.

Connect the washing machine to the water mains using the new set of hoses. Do not reuse the old set of hoses.

Water inlet hoses deteriorate over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, and leaks, and replace them as needed and at least every five years.

All packaging and shipping bolts must be removed before the appliance is used. Serious damage may occur if they are not removed. See page 12 “Removing the shipping bolts”.

Before washing clothes for the first time, you must run a complete cycle without clothes. See “Washing for the first time”.
