gas may be produced in a hot

for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS

has not been used for such a period,
turn on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
