WASHER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the
washer, follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the
washer.
• Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, other flammable, or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
• Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning sol-
vents, or other flammable, or explosive
substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
• 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 the
washing machine, 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not allow children to play on or in the
washer. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the washer is used near
children.
• Before the washer is removed from
service or discarded, remove the lid.
• Do not reach into the washer if the tub or
agitator is moving.
• Do not install or store the washer where it
will be exposed to the weather.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the
washer or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in this Use and
Care Guide or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have
the skills to carry out.
• See Installation Instructions for grounding
requirements.
