been previously cleaned or soaked
in gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or
other flammable or explosive sub-

ing unless specifically recommended

water. These subtances give off
vapors that could ignite or explode.
10. Under certain conditions, hydro-

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, be-
fore using the washing machine,
turn on all hot water faucets and
let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release
any built up hydrogen gas.
As the gas is flammable, do not
smoke or use an open flame
