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 door to prevent
accidental entrapment.
• Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
Prevent Injury
• To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the washer must be installed
and electrically grounded by a qualified service person in accordance with local codes.
Installation instructions are packed in the washer for installer's reference. Refer to
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS for detailed grounding procedures. If the washer is moved to
a new location, have it checked and reinstalled by a qualified service person.
• To prevent personal injury or damage to the washer, the electrical power cord of the washer
must be plugged into a properly grounded and polarized 3-prong outlet.
The third
grounding prong must never be removed. Never ground the washer to a gas pipe. Do
not use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.
• Follow package directions when using laundry products. Incorrect usage can produce
poisonous gas--resulting in serious injury or death.
-
Do not
combine laundry products for use in 1 load unless specified on the label.
-
Do not
mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar.
• To prevent serious personal injury and damage to the washer:
-
All repairs and servicing must be performed by an authorized servicer
unless
specifically recommended in this Owner's Guide. Use only authorized factory parts.
-
Do not
tamper with controls.
-
Do not
install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before
attempting any user maintenance. Turning the controls to the OFF position does not
disconnect this appliance from the power supply.
• To prevent injury, do not reach into the washer while parts are moving. Before loading,
unloading or adding items, push in the cycle selector knob and allow the drum to coast to
a complete stop before reaching inside.
• Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
• This washer is equipped with an electrical overload protector. The motor will stop if it becomes
overheated. The washer will automatically restart after a cool down period of up to 30
minutes, if the washer has not been manually turned off during this time.
