Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as
described in this Owner’s Manual.
■ Never reach into washer while
it is moving. Wait until the
machine has completely
stopped before opening
the lid.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach
with ammonia or acids such
as vinegar and/or rust
remover. Mixing different
chemicals can produce a toxic
gas which may cause death.
■ Do not wash or dry articles
that have been cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or
spotted with combustible or
explosive substances (such as
wax, oil, paint, gasoline,
degreasers, dry-cleaning
solvents, kerosene, etc.)
which may ignite or explode.
Do not add these substances
to the wash water. Do not use
or place these substances
around your washer or dryer
during operation.

reduce the flame retardancy
of fabrics. To avoid such a
result, carefully follow the
garment manufacturer’s
wash and care instructions.

of electric shock, unplug this
appliance from the power
supply or disconnect the
washer at the household
distribution panel by
removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit
breaker before attempting
any maintenance or cleaning.
NOTE: Turning the Cycle
Selector knob to an off
position does
NOT disconnect
the appliance from the
power supply.
■ Never attempt to operate this
appliance if it is damaged,
malfunctioning, partially
disassembled, or has missing
