Important Safety

Instructions

(continued)

Prevent Injury

To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the

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

To prevent personal injury or damage to the washer, the electrical

power cord of the washer must be plugged into a properly grounded and polarized
3-prong outlet.

The third grounding prong must never be removed. Never

ground the washer 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 washer:

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 washer where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not install on carpet. Install washer on a solid floor. It may be necessary
to reinforce the floor to prevent vibration or movement.

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.

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 drum to coast to a complete stop before reaching inside.

Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

This 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.
