• Read all instructions before using your
washer.
• Do not machine wash or machine dry items
cleaned, washed, soaked in, or spotted with
wax, paint, gasoline, oil, or other flammable
fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard
or explosion. Always hand wash and line
dry items containing these materials.
• Flammable fluids (dry-cleaning solvents,
kerosene, gasoline, etc.) should not be
used or stored in or near your washer. Do
not add flammable fluids to your wash
water. These substances give off vapors
that can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not allow children to operate, play with,
or crawl on or inside your washer. Super-
vise children closely when your washer is
used near them.
• Before your washer is removed from
service or discarded, remove the lid to
prevent accidental entrapment.
• After starting a cycle, do not reach into the
basket unless CANCEL is pressed and all
motion stops.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• If your hot water has not been used
recently (usually 2 weeks or longer),
hydrogen gases may build up in your water
heater and your hot water pipes. HYDRO-
GEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent
injury or damage, before using your
washer, turn on all hot water faucets and
allow water to run for several minutes. This
will allow gases to escape. Do not smoke
or use any open flame near your faucet
while it is open.
