IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the appliance.
• Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned
in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry
cleaning solvents, other flammable, or exlosive substan-
ces as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Clo-
se supervision of children is necessary when the applian-
ce is used near children.
• Before the appliance is removed from service or discar-
ded, remove the door to the washing compartment.
• Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flam-
mable or explosive substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
• Do not install or store this appliance where it will be
exposed to the weather.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Under certain conditions Hydrogen gas may be produ-
ced 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 appliance, 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.
• Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses and
valves and to minimize leakage if a break or rupture
occurs.
• Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or drum is
moving.
• 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 carry out.
• Good, safe practices and caution MUST be applied
when installing, operating, and maintaining any applian-
ce. Follow basic precaution.
• Disconnect power to the washer at the circuit breaker
or fuse box, or unplug the machine in an emergency or
when servicing required. Have the installer show you and
label the proper switch or fuse at the electrical discon-
nect box.
• The interior of the appliance should be cleaned periodi-
cally by qualified service personnel.
• Before loading the washer, make sure the drum is empty.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of mal-
function or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistence for
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord ha-
ving an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment-groun-
ding conductor can result in a electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative
or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the applian-
ce is properly gounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will
not fit outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
