I M P O R T ANT SAFETY INSTR UCTIONS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE, CARE AND CLEANING, AND DISPOSAL
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 one 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 in serious personal injury or death.
