Part 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Read all instructions before using the washer.

• Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

• Do not add gasoline, dry 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 washing machine, 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.

• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

• Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to prevent children from hiding inside.

• Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.

• Do not tamper with the controls.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

• See Installation Instructions for grounding requirements.

• ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.

• Do not place items exposed to cooking oil in your washer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer, follow basic

precautions, including the following:

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and 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.

• Do not use an adapter or extension cord.

• Do not remove ground prong.

• If you don’t have the proper outlet, consult an electrician.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

WARNING:

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

DANGER: You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

WARNING: You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow instructions.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word DANGER or WARNING. These words mean:

• Do not, under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock or death.

• For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock or death.

• The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 3prong (grounding) plug which fits a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibillty of

electric shock hazard from this appliance.

• This washer must be plugged into a 120-VAC, 60-Hz grounded outlet. Failure to follow this warning can cause

serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• Do not install on carpet. Install the washer on a solid floor. Failure to follow this warning can cause serious leak

damage.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• The washer should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.

• Never unplug your washer by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the outlet. Failure to follow this warning can cause

serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• The washer must be installed and electrically grounded by a qualified service person in accordance with local codes, to prevent shock hazard and assure stability during

operation.

• The washer is heavy. Two or more people are needed to install and move the appliance.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury

• Store and install the washer where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to outdoor weather conditions.

• Unplug the washer before cleaning to avoid the risk of electric shock.

• Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents to clean the washer.

laundering. Due to the remaining oil, the fabric may smoke or catch fire by itself.

• Disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any user maintenance.

items, push in the cycle selector knob and allow the drum to coast to a complete stop before reaching inside.

Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.

• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

• Destroy the carton, plastic bag, and other packing materials after the washer is unpacked.

Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

• Keep laundry products out of children's reach.

To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings on product labels. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

• Remove the door to the washing compartment to avoid the danger of children or small animals getting trapped inside before your washer is removed from service or discarded.
