CAUTION – READ THE INSTRUCTIONS

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, 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.
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.
This appliance is intended to be used in households and similar applications such as staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, other working environments, farmhouses, by clients in hotels, motels, other residential type environments, bed and breakfast type environments, areas for communal use in blocks of flats, or in launderettes.
Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not allow children to play on, in, or with the washer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.
Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
The appliance can be used by children aged 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instructions concerning the safe use of the washer, and if they understand the hazards involved.
This washer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical sensory, mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the washer by a person responsible for their safety.
