Prevent Injury

To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the

laundry center must be installed and electrically grounded by a qualified service
person in accordance with local codes. Installation instructions are packed in the
laundry center for the installer's reference. Refer to INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
for detailed grounding procedures. If the laundry center is moved to a new location,
have it checked and reinstalled by a qualified service person.

To prevent personal injury or damage to the laundry center, the

electrical power cord must be plugged into a properly grounded and polarized 3-
prong outlet. The third grounding prong must never be removed. Never
ground the laundry center to a gas pipe. Do not use an extension cord or an
adaptor plug.

Follow package directions when using laundry products. Incorrect

usage can produce poisonous gas--resulting in serious injury or death.

Do not combine laundry products for use in 1 load unless specified on the label.

Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar.

To prevent serious personal injury and damage to the laundry center:

All repairs and servicing must be performed by an authorized servicer
unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Guide. Use only authorized
factory parts.

Do not tamper with controls.

Do not install or store the laundry center where it will be exposed to the
weather.

ALWAYS disconnect the laundry center from the electrical supply

before attempting any service or cleaning. Failure to do so can result in electrical
shock or injury.

Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning dryer interior.

Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

To prevent injury, do not reach into the washer while parts are

moving. Before loading, unloading or adding items, push in the cycle selector knob
and allow the tub to coast to a complete stop before reaching inside.

To prevent injury, do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

Wait until the dryer has stopped completely before reaching into the drum.

A thermal limiter switch automatically turns off the dryer motor in the unlikely

event of an overheated situation (electric dryers only). A service technician must
replace the thermal limiter switch after correcting the fault.

The washer is equipped with an electrical overload protector. The motor will stop

if it becomes overheated. The washer will automatically restart after a cool down
period of up to 30 minutes, if the washer has not been manually turned off during
this time.
