Safety Instructions
■ Never reach into washer while it is moving.
Wait until the machine has completely
stopped before opening the lid.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.
Mixing different chemicals can produce a
toxic gas which may cause death.
■ Do not wash or dry articles that have been
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted
with combustible or explosive substances
(such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers,
dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which
may ignite or explode. Do not add these
substances to the wash water. Do not use or
place these substances around your washer
or dryer during operation.
■ The laundry process can reduce the flame
retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,
carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s
wash and care instructions.
■ To minimize the possibility of electric shock,
unplug this appliance from the power supply
or disconnect the washer at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse or
switching off the circuit breaker before
attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
NOTE:
Pressing PAUSE does NOT disconnect
the appliance from the power supply.
■ Never attempt to operate this appliance
if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially
disassembled, or has missing or broken parts,
including a damaged cord or plug.
WHEN USING THE WASHER
■ Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on
hoses and valves and to minimize leakage if
a break or rupture should occur. Check the
condition of the fill hoses; they may need
replacement after 5 years.
■ Before discarding a washer, or removing it
from service, remove the washer lid to prevent
children from hiding inside.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of this appliance unless specifically
recommended in this Owner’s Manual, or
in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
