For Your Safety
Your washer-dryer has been built in compliance with the strictest
international safety regulations. However, for your safety, the
information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal
injury, or loss of life.
• Read all instructions before using any appliance.
• Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, or spotted in gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, other
flammable/explosive substances as they emit vapors that could
ignite or explode.
• Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove
the door to the washing/drying compartment.
• 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.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
• Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, items contaminated with
cooking oil or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.
• Do not place flammable substances around your washer-dryer during
operation.
• 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 the appliance, turn on all
hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several min.
This will release any accumulated hydrogen.
• Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similar
textured rubber-like materials.
• Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses and valves and to
minimize leakage if a break or rupture occurs.
• Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Repair or replacement of a part should be made only by a qualified
service technician to prevent personal injury or damage to the
machine. Contact Splendide to locate an authorized repair service
company near you.
• Qualified service personnel should clean the interior of the machine
periodically.
• Disconnect power to the washer at the circuit breaker or fuse box, or
unplug the machine in an emergency or when servicing is required.
Have the installer show you and label the proper switch or fuse at
the electrical disconnect box.
• Good, safe practices and caution MUST be applied when installing,
operating, and maintaining any appliance. Follow basic precaution.
• Save these instructions.
