Your safety is important to us.
This guide contains safety statements under
warning symbols. Please pay special
attention to these symbols and follow any
instructions given. Here is a brief explana-
tion of the symbol.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read all instructions before using your
washer.
• Do not machine wash or machine dry
items cleaned, washed, soaked in, or
spotted with wax, paint, gasoline, oil, or
other flammable fluids. The fumes can
create a fire hazard or explosion. Always
hand wash and line dry items containing
these materials.
• Flammable fluids (dry-cleaning solvents,
kerosene, gasoline, etc.) should not be
used or stored in or near your washer. Do
not add flammable fluids to your wash
water. These substances give off vapors
that can create a fire hazard or explosion.

with, or crawl on or inside your washer.
Supervise children closely when your
washer is used near them.

service or discarded, remove the lidto

the basket unless the Cycle Control
Knob is pushed in and all motion stops.

recently (usually 2 weeks or longer),
hydrogen gases may build up in your
water heater and your hot water pipes.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
To prevent injury or damage, before
using your washer, turn on all hot water
faucets and allow water to run for several
minutes. This will allow gases to escape.
