Washing Machine Owner’s Instructions
1. Read all safety instructions before using the appliance.
2. As with any equipment using electricity and
having moving parts, there are potential hazards.
To use this appliance safely, the operator should
become familiar with the instructions for operation
of the appliance and always exercise care when
using it.
3. Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to bad weather..
4. Install and level the washing machine on a floor that
can support the weight.
5. This appliance must be properly grounded. Never
plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which
is not grounded adequately and in accordance
with local and national codes. See installation
instructions for grounding this appliance.
6. To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:
a. Do not wash or dry items that have been
previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted
with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other
flammable or explosive substances as they give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Hand wash and
line dry any items containing these substances.
Any material on which you have used a cleaning
solvent, or which is saturated with flammable liq-
uids or solids, should not be placed in the
clothes washer until all traces of these liquids or
solids and their fumes have been removed.
These items include acetone, denatured alcohol,
gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household
cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes
and wax removers.
b.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.
c. 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 such a period,
before using a washing machine or combination
washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each 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.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub is moving.
8. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
Close supervision of children is necessary when the
appliance is used near children.
9. Do not tamper with controls.
10.Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance
or attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in published user- repair instructions that
you understand and have the skills to carry out.
11.Unplug power supply cord before attempting to service
your washing machine.
12.Store laundry aids and other material in a cool, dry
place where children cannot reach them.
13.Do not wash or dry 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.
14. Do not use chlorine bleach and ammonia or acids
(such as vinegar or rust remover) in the same wash.
Hazardous fumes can form.
15. Do not wash fiberglass materials.
Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in
subsequent loads and cause skin irritation.

discarded, remove the door to the washing com-
partment.

18.Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber
or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
