Safety Instructions Installation Instructions
■ Never reach into washer while it is moving.
Wait until the machine has completely stopped
before opening the door.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.
Mixing different chemicals can produce a toxic
gas which may cause death.
■ Do not wash or dry articles that have been
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted
with combustible or explosive substances (such
as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry-
cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may
ignite or explode. Do not add these substances
to the wash water. Do not use or place these
substances around your washer or dryer during
operation.
■ The laundry process can reduce the flame
retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,
carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s
wash and care instructions.
■ To minimize the possibility of electric shock,
unplug this appliance from the power supply
or disconnect the washer at the building’s
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker before
attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
NOTE: Pressing the power button does NOT
disconnect the appliance from the power
supply.
■ Never attempt to operate this appliance if
it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially
disassembled, or has missing or broken parts,
including a damaged cord or plug.
■ Do not slam the washer door closed. Do not try
to force the door open when locked (LOCKED
indicator ON). This could result in damage to
the washer.
■ The 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 2 hours, if the washer
has not been manually turned off
during this time.
WHEN USING THE WASHER
■ Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on
hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if
a break or rupture should occur. Check the
condition of the fill hoses; they should be
replaced every 5 years.
■ Before discarding a washer, or removing it
from service, remove the washer door to prevent
children from hiding inside.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
this appliance unless specifically recommended
in this Owner’s Manual, or in published user-
repair instructions that you understand and
have the skills to carry out.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
