PRESERVING THE TOP COVER AND THE FRONT FRAME
Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the washing machine. They can scratch or
damage the top cover of the washing machine. Keep them on the pedestal (if purchased) or in a separate
storage box.
Since the entire washing machine has a high-gloss finish, the surface can be scratched or damaged.
Avoid scratching or damaging the surface when using the washing machine.
