Important Safety Instructions
Save These Instructions
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.
2. Install the washer according to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to the
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in the
INSTALLATION manual for the proper
grounding of the washer. All connections for
water, drain, electrical power and grounding must
comply with local codes and be made by licensed
personnel when required. Do not do it yourself
unless you know how!
3. Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
4. Do not add the following substances or textiles
containing traces of the following substances to
the wash water: gasoline, kerosene, waxes,
cooking oils, vegetable oils, machine oils, dry-
cleaning solvents, flammable chemicals, thinners

These substances give off vapors that could
ignite, explode or cause the fabric to catch on fire
by itself.

produced in a hot water system that has not been

release any accumulated hydrogen gas. THE
GAS IS FLAMMABLE, DO NOT SMOKE OR
USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING THIS TIME.
