Owner's Manual

• Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents to clean the washer. They will damage the finish.
• Do not wash laundry that has been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite
or explode.
• Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
• In the event of a gas leak (propane gas, LP gas, etc.), do not operate this or any other appliance. Open a window or door
to ventilate the area immediately.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Fix the drain hose securely in place to avoid flooding.
• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door of the appliance.
• Always check the inside of the appliance for foreign objects.
• Do not allow water, bleach or other liquids to sit in the drum for extended periods. Doing so can corrode the drum or
cause mildew or odors.
Maintenance
• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance. All repairs and servicing must be performed by qualified service
personnel unless specifically recommended in this owner’s manual. Use only authorized factory parts.
• Disconnect this appliance from the power supply before cleaning and attempting any user maintenance. Turning the
controls to the OFF position does not disconnect this appliance from the power supply.
• Remove any dust or foreign matter from the power plug pins.
• Do not disassemble or repair the appliance by yourself.
• Remove the door before the appliance is removed from service or discarded to avoid the danger of children or small
animals getting trapped inside.
• Make sure the dispenser drawer or lid is closed at all times when not being filled with laundry products.
Grounding Instructions
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The appliance is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
