WASHERSAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are 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 potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, 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 the 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 the washing
machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during
this time.

SAVE THESE

m Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used
near children.
m Before the washer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door or lid.
m Do not reach into the washer if the drum, tub or agitator is
moving.
m Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to
the weather.
m Do not tamper with controls.
m Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in this manual or in
published user-repair instructions that you understand and
have the skills to carry out.
m See "Electrical Requirements" for grounding instructions.

can result in death,

IMPORTANT: The washer must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances or, in the absence of
local cedes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
latest edition.
[]

if codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine
that the ground path is adequate.

[]

Do not ground to a gas pipe.

[]

Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269
[]

A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical
circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this washer be provided.

[]

The washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3
prong grounding plug.

[]

To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating, 3 prong, grounded-type outlet, grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances, if a mating
outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded
outlet installed by a quatified electrician.

INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected
washer:
This washer must be grounded, in the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric
current. This washer 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
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
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 outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
For a permanently connected washer:
This washer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.

iNSTALLATiONiNSTRUCTiONS
