To reduce the risk of fi re, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using this washer, comply with the 
basic warnings listed below. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow these Important Safety Instructions:

•  Do not wash items that have been previously 

cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted with gaso-
line, cleaning solvents, kerosene, cooking oils, 
waxes, etc. Do not store these items on or near 
the washer. These substances give off vapors or 
chemical reactions that could ignite or explode.

•  Do not put oily or greasy rags or clothing on top 

of the washer. These substances give off vapors 
that could ignite the materials.

•  Do not add gasoline, cleaning solvents, or other 

fl ammable 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 washer, turn on all hot water faucets and let 
the water fl ow from each for several minutes. 
This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. 
Hydrogen gas is fl ammable; do not smoke or 
use an open fl ame during this time. 

•  Do not store or use gasoline or other fl ammable 

vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any 
other appliance.

•  Failure to comply with these warnings could 

result in fi re, explosion, serious bodily injury and/
or damage to the rubber or plastic parts of the 
washer.

•  Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. 

Close supervision of children is necessary when 
the washer is used near children. As children 
grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all ap-
pliances.

•  Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other pack-

ing materials after the washer is unpacked. Chil-
dren might use them for play. Cartons covered 
with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can 
become airtight chambers.

•  Keep laundry products out of children’s reach. 

To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings 
on product labels.

•  Before the washer is removed from service or 

discarded, remove the washer door to prevent 
accidental entrapment.
