Important Safety Instructions
Read all instructions before using this washer.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, or injury to persons when using this washer,
comply with the basic warnings listed below.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result
in serious personal injuries.
Prevent Fire
Do not wash items that have been
previously cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, cleaning solvents, kerosene, cooking oils,
waxes, etc. Do not store these items on or near the
washer. These substances give off vapors or chemical
reactions that could ignite or explode.
Do not put oily or greasy rags or clothing
on top of the washer. These substances give off
vapors that could ignite the materials.
Do not add gasoline, cleaning solvents,
or other flammable or explosive substances to the
wash water. These substances give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
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 system has not been
used for such a period, before using the washer, turn on
all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each
for several minutes. This will release any accumulated
hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is flammable; do not
smoke or use an open flame during this time.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result
in fire, explosion, serious bodily injury and/or damage
to the rubber or plastic parts of the washer.
Protect Children
Do not allow children to play on or in the
washer. Close supervision of children is necessary
when the washer is used near children. As children
grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.
Destroy the carton, plastic bag and
other packing materials after the washer is unpacked.
Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with
rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can become airtight
chambers.
Keep laundry products out of children's
reach. To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings
on product labels.
Before the washer is removed from
service or discarded, remove the washer lid to prevent
accidental entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result
in serious personal injuries.
