Read all safety information before using
Many washers are located near a gas dryer or a water heater in the home.
WARNING: For your safety the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
IF YOU SMELL GAS
1Do not try to light any appliance.
2Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
3Clear the room, building or area of all occupants.
4Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
5If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
Water Heater Safety
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS CAN BE EXPLOSIVE UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes before using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This will allow any hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do
not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.

Important Safety Information
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following sections.
Safety Precautions
4
•Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
•This washer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet, you can obtain one by writing to: Manager, Consumer Relations, Camco Inc.,
1 Factory Lane, Suite 310, Moncton, N.B. E1C 9M3.
—Properly ground to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation Instructions.
—Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the weather.
—Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
—Connect to adequate plumbing and drain facilities as described in the Installation Instructions.
•Turn off water faucets when the washer is not in use to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if a hose or valve should break or rupture.
•Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Owner’s Manual or in published userrepair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
•When disconnecting this appliance pull by the plug rather than the cord to avoid damage to the cord or junction of cord and plug. Make sure that the cord
is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
•Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches, fabric
softeners, etc.) out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on container labels to avoid personal injury.
•Do not tamper with the controls.
•Keep the area around and underneath your appliances free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
•Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.
•Never reach into washer while it is moving. Before loading, unloading or adding clothes, push in the Cycle Selector knob and wait until the machine has
completely stopped before opening the lid.
•Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play inside, on or with this appliance or any discarded appliance. Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping/packing materials properly. Before discarding a washer, or removing from
service, remove the washer lid.
•Do not leave washer lid up during cycle. This will stop the wash and spin action and
prevent completion of the cycle.
•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 these substances around your washer and/or dryer during operation.
•The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result, the garment manufacturer’s care instructions should be followed very carefully.
•Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover. Mixing can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
•Never climb on or stand on the washer top.
•Do not wash fiberglass articles in your washer. Skin irritation could result from the remaining particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent washer use.
•To minimize the possibility 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.
•Do not operate this appliance
if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
