16. WARNING!
MACHINE INSPECTION,
REPLACEMENT.
Before attempting any service or inspection of the washing machine:
Close and mechanically interlock the water supply valves and check that machine has COMPLETELY
drained, parts have cooled down and that no pieces are in movement through inertia.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock:
 COMPLETELY disconnect the machine from the original power source and check for accidental
reconnection. MOVING THE ON SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION IS NOT SUFFICIENT.
 Disconnect the electrical power of the external dosing to the washing machine. These circuits are
independent of the washer's supply.
 Wait a minimum of (5) five minutes after disconnection to ensure the elimination of residual voltage
within the machine.
Failure to comply with this warning may result in serious injury.
