WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
~
Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
~
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord
having an
equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
~
WARNING - Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
may result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
~
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
~
Do not allow children to play on or in
the appliance. Close supervision is
necessary when the appliance is used
near children.
~
Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
not add these items to the wash load.
~
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, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
~
Before the appliance is removed for
service or discarded, remove the door.
~
Do not reach into the appliance if
the drum is moving.
~
Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to the weather.
~
Do not tamper with
the controls.
~
Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in
these operating instructions.
