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 solvents, 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 door.
•
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 recom-
mended in this Use and Care Guide or in published
user-repair instructions that you understand and
have the skills to carry out.
