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.

Do not install on carpet. Install washer on a solid floor. It may be
necessary to reinforce the floor to prevent vibration or movement.

from the power supply before attempting any user maintenance. Turning the

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.

cool down period of up to 30 minutes, if the washer has not been manually
turned off during this time.
