Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on

your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to

hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety

messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and

the word "DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean:

You wil__lbe killed or seriously

injured if you don't follow

instructions.

You ca__nbe killed or seriously

injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the

chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not

followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons

when using your washer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using

the washer.

• Do not wash articles that have been

previously cleaned in, washed in,

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, 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.

• 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 a washing machine, turn

on all hot water faucets and let the

water flow from each for several

minutes. This will release any accumu-

lated hydrogen gas. As the gas is

flammable, do not smoke or use an

open flame during this time.

• Do not allow children to play on or

in the washer. Close supervision of

children is necessary when the

washer is used near children.

• Before the washer is removed from

service or discarded, remove the lid.

• Do not reach into the washer if the

tub or agitator is moving.

• Do not install or store this washer

where it will be exposed to the

weather.

• Do not tamper with controls.

• Do not repair or replace any part of

the washer or attempt any servicing

unless specifically recommended in

the Owner's Manual or in published

user-repair instructions that you

understand and have the skills to

carry out.

• See Installation Instructions for

grounding requirements.

Check with a qualified electrician or

serviceman if you are in doubt as to

whether the appliance is properly

grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with

the appliance - if it will not fit the
