WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or injury to persons when using your washing machine,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the
washing machine.
Do not wash articles that have previously been
cleaned, washed, soaked or moistened
with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
ammable or explosive substances, as these
release vapors that could ignite or cause
an explosion.
Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents,
or other ammable or explosive substances to the
water to be used for washing. These substances
release vapors that could ignite or cause an explosion.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
generated in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If hot water has not been used during this
period, before using the washing machine, open all
hot water faucets and let the water run for several
minutes. This will release any hydrogen gas that may
have accumulated in the system. Due to the
ammability of hydrogen, do not smoke or use
an open ame during this time.
This device has not been designed for
use by people (including children) with impaired
physical, sensory or mental capacity

knowledge, unless they have been provided with
instructions or are supervised in the use of the device
by a person responsible for their safety.
