4 General information
For Your Safety
Save These Instructions
Your washer-dryer has been built in compliance with the
strictest international safety regulations. However, for your
safety, the information in this manual must be followed to
minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to
prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
Read all instructions before using any appliance.
•
Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, or spotted in gasoline, dry cleaning
solvents, other flammable/explosive substances as they
emit vapors that could ignite or explode.
•
Before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the washing/drying
compartment.
•
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in
the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-
repair instructions that you understand and have the skills
to perform.
•
Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
•
Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, items
contaminated with cooking oil or other flammable or
explosive substances to the wash water. Do not install or
store this appliance where it will be exposed to weather
or in an area where gasoline or other flammables are
stored.
•
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

faucets and let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen.
•
Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similar textured rubber-like materials.
•
Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses and
valves and to minimize leakage if a break or rupture
occurs.

Repair or replacement of a part should be made only by
a qualified service technician to prevent personal injury or
damage to the machine. Contact Splendide to locate an
authorized repair service company near you.

Disconnect power to the washer at the circuit breaker or
fuse box, or unplug the machine in an emergency or
when servicing is required. Have the installer show you
