Before using your washing machine, please read this manual carefully before installation and keep it for future reference.
This manual contains important information on the installation, use, and care of your appliance to prevent you from injury
and property damage.
• Read all instructions before using the appliance.
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this manual.
• Before use, the washing machine must be properly installed as described in this manual.
• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.
• Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance
is used near children.
• Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the lid of the washing or drying compartment.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
•
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless it is specifically recommended in the user-
maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
•
Do not add gasoline, dry-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 2 weeks or more,
before using a washer or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow for several
minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open
flame during this time.
• Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible materials (lint, paper, rags, etc.),
gasoline, chemicals and other flammable vapors and liquids.
•
Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oil may contribute to a
chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.
• This washer is not designed for maritime use or for mobile installations such as in RVs, aircraft, etc.
•
Turn off the water faucets and unplug the washer if the machine is to be left for an extended period of time, such
as during vacations.
• Keep all package away from children. There is a risk of suffocation.
• Always check the inside of the washer for objects before loading laundry. Keep the lid closed when not in use.
• Plug the power cord into an AC 120V/60Hz wall socket connected to a circuit breaker rated at 15 amps or higher. Use
the socket for this washer only.
•
Do not use an extension cord or an electric transformer. Sharing a wall socket with other appliance, using a power
strip, or extending the power cord may result in electric shock or fire.

regular basis. Unplug the power plug and clean it with a dry cloth.
•
The power plug should be inserted into the wall socket in the right direction and firmly so that the cord runs
towards the floor. If you plug in the opposite direction, the electric wires within the cable may be damaged and
this may result in electric shock or fire. Do not use a damaged power plug, or loosen the wall socket.
•
Do not pull or excessively bend the power cord. Do not twist or tie the power cord.
• Do not hook the power cord over a metal object, place a heavy object on the power cord, insert the power cord
between objects, or push the power cord into the space behind the appliance.
