- Do not wash or dry items that have been previously
cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, clean-
ing solvents, kerosene, cooking oils, waxes, etc. Do not
store these items on or near the washer. These sub-
stances give off vapors or chemical reactions that could

could ignite the materials.

mable or explosive substances to the wash water, These

duced in a hot water system that has not been used

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

an open flame during this time.
