mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
3. Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.
4. Call the nearest authorized service center for a replacement if the power cord malfunctions.
5. Use only the new water inlet hose coming with your machine when making water inlet connections to

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
2. DO NOT wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
3. DO NOT add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water, or wash items that have been soak or contaminated in these substances. These substances give
off vapors that could ignite or explode.
4. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used
for 2 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, 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.
5. DO NOT allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when
the appliance is used near children.
6. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door.
7. DO NOT reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving.
8. DO NOT install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
9. DO NOT tamper with controls.
10. DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting
any user maintenance. Turning the controls to the OFF position does not disconnect this appliance
from the power supply.
12.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
