Important safety instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Prevent fire
 DO NOT wash items that have been
previously cleaned in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, cleaning
solvents, kerosene, cooking oils,
waxes, or other flammable or explosive
substances. DO NOT store these
items on or near the washer. These
substances give off vapors or chemical
reactions that could ignite or explode.
 DO NOT put oily or greasy rags or
clothing on top of the washer. These
substances give off vapors that could
ignite the materials.
 DO NOT add gasoline, cleaning
solvents, or other flammable or
explosive substances to the wash water.
These substances give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
• 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 period, before using the
washer, turn on all hot water faucets
and let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. Hydrogen
gas is flammable; DO NOT smoke or use
an open flame during this time.
 DO NOT store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors or liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Failure to comply with these warnings
could result in fire, explosion, serious
bodily injury and/or damage to the
rubber or plastic parts of the washer.
 DO NOT continue to use the washer if
you hear squeaking, grinding, rubbing
or other unusual noises. This could be
a sign of mechanical breakdown and
lead to fire or serious injury. Contact a
qualified technician immediately.

them for play. Cartons covered with
rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can
become airtight compartments.
• Keep laundry products out of children’s
reach. To prevent personal injury,
observe all warnings on product labels.
• Before the washer is removed from
service or discarded, remove the washer
door to prevent accidental entrapment.
• Failure to comply with these warnings
could result in serious personal injuries.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
washers and dryers are still dangerous – even if
they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting
rid of your old washer or dryer, please follow the
instructions below to help prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible appliance
recycling/disposal methods. Contact your
State/Provence Energy Office, Local Electric
and Water Utilities or Conservation Program
Office or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle
for more information on recycling your old
washer or dryer.
Before you throw away your old
washer or dryer:
• Remove doors
• Remove the electric power cord
• Secure all hoses and drain pipes to
prevent water from leaking out and
creating a slip hazard.
Prevent injury
• To prevent shock hazard and assure
stability during operation, the washer
must be installed and electrically
grounded by a qualified service person
in accordance with local codes.
Installation instructions are packed
in the washer for installer’s reference.
Grounding type wall receptacle
Power cord with
3-prong grounded plug
Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut, remove,
or bypass the
grounding prong.
• Follow package directions when using
laundry products. Incorrect usage can
produce poisonous gas - resulting in
serious injury or death.
 DO NOT combine laundry products
for use in 1 load unless specified on
the label.
