WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons when using the appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
!
• Unplug the washer before cleaning
to avoid the risk
of electric shock.
• Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or
solvents to clean the washer.
They will damage the finish.
• 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 wash items that are soiled with vegetable or
cooking oil.
These items may contain some oil after
laundering. Due to the remaining oil, the fabric may
smoke or catch fire by itself.
• 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.
Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury,
fire, electrical shock, 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.
Follow package directions when using laundry
products. Incorrect usage can produce poisonous gas-
resulting in serious injury or death.
• 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 follow this warning can cause serious injury,
fire, electrical shock, or death.
• 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.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in
serious personal injuries.
• 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. Failure to comply with
these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
• Keep laundry products out of children's reach.
To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings on
product labels. Failure to comply with these warnings
could result in serious personal injuries.
• Remove the door to the washing compartment to
avoid the danger of children or small animals getting
trapped inside before your washer is removed from
service or discarded.
Failure to do so can result injury or death.
• 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.
