b. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
flammable or explosive substances to the wash water.
These substances give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
c. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for 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
vegetable 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.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or tumblers
are moving.
8. Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in
front of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary
when the appliance is used near children and pets.
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 published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.

• The tub can be loaded completely full with dry unfolded
clothes. However, do not pack the tub tightly.
• Overloading may reduce washing efficiency and possibly cause
creasing or wrinkling of the load.
• When washing big bulky items or a couple of small items that
do not fill the tub completely, such as a rug or two sweaters, a
few towels should be added for improved tumbling and spin
performance.

your washer. Service is to be done only by qualified
service personnel.
12. Keep all laundry aids such as detergents, bleach, etc.,
out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked
cabinet. Use laundry aids only as directed by the
manufacturer. Observe all warnings on container labels.

the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint,
paper, rags, gasoline, and all other flammable vapors and
liquids.

manufacturer's instructions carefully. Improper
laundering could remove the finish.

over time. Check the hoses periodically for bulges,
kinks, cuts, wear or leaks and replace them every five
