solids, should not be placed in the washer until all
traces of these liquids or solids and their fumes have
been removed.
These items include acetone, denatured alcohol, gaso-

two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water system has not been used for such a
period, before using a washing machine or combination
washer-dryer, 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.
d. Do not wash or dry items that are soiled with veg-
etable or cooking oil.These items may contain some oil
after laundering. Due to the remaining oil, the fabric
may smoke or catch fire by itself.
