The instructions in this manual and all other literature included with this washer are

WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks
or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on
all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance
which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape.
Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.
PROPER INSTALLATION
This washer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
Keep the area underneath and around your
appliances free of combustible materials such as
lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
Do not leave the washer door open. An open door
could entice children to hang on the door or crawl
inside the washer.
Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used
by or near children. Do not allow children to play on,
with, or inside this or any other appliance.
