Important Safety Instructions
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, property damage or injury to persons when
using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following
Safety Precautions
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 liquids 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.

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

eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener.
