WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death to persons when using your washer, follow these basic precautions:
W023
· Read all instructions before using the washer. · Install the washer according to the INSTALLATION IN-
STRUCTIONS. Refer to the EARTH/GROUND INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper earth/ ground connection of the washer. All connections for water, drain, electrical power and earth/ground must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself. · Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. · 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 the following substances or textiles containing traces of the following substances to the wash water: gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, vegetable oils, machine oils, dry-cleaning solvents, flammable chemicals, thinners or other flammable or explosive substances. These substances give off vapors that could ignite, explode or cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself. · Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two 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 or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. THE GAS IS FLAMMABLE, DO NOT SMOKE OR USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING THIS TIME. · To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to connect the washer to the electrical power source. · Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. This is a safety rule for all appliances. · Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

Maintenance

Maintenance

User-Maintenance Instructions
Lubrication
All moving parts are sealed in a permanent supply of lubricant or are equipped with oilless bearings. Additional lubrication will not be necessary.
Do not lubricate the door hinge. If the hinge makes noise, replace the hinge.
Cold Weather Care
If the unit is delivered on a cold day (below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area during the cold months, do not attempt to operate the washer until it has had a chance to warm up. Water from the previous cycle may remain.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some cleaning products may harm the finish on the control panel or damage the interior. DO NOT use products that contain alcohol on the control panel. Wipe the panel dry after cleaning.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other washing products are spilled on the cabinet, wipe immediately. Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers on control panel or cabinet.
The outside of the door window can be cleaned with household window cleaner.
Leave the door and dispenser drawer open slightly when not in use. This will help keep them dry and prevent musty smells.
Use the Tub Clean cycle (select models) regularly to clean the wash drum.
Cleaning Glass Sealing Area
In order to assure that the door properly seals against water leaks, the following surfaces should be wiped off periodically:
· The outside perimeter of the door glass where the seal contacts the glass
· The front surface of the door seal lip
Usually a mild soap solution will work. If there is an extreme build-up of minerals from a hard water supply, the surfaces may need to be cleaned with a lime removal chemical.
Replacing Hoses

All hoses should be checked on a monthly basis for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five years.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or damage every six months. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal, check the filter screens. Clean or replace them if necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. 803615 from the nearest authorized parts distributor.
Extended Non-Use
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage due to flooding, turn off the water supply to the washer whenever there will be an extended period of non- use.
Leave the loading door and dispenser drawer open during extended periods of non-use to allow the wash drum and drawer to dry out and avoid a musty smell.
Laundry IQ (Select Models)
In the case that the Laundry IQ device detects a condition that requires machine maintenance, the owner will receive a notification on https://laundryIQ.alliancelaundry.com.
Cleaning Foreign Object Trap
The washer’s pump has a trap that may collect foreign objects. The trap may need to be cleaned if water is draining slower than usual. To clean: 1. Disconnect washer from electrical supply. 2. Remove two screws at bottom of the front access panel. 3. Rotate bottom of panel out and remove panel.
NOTE: The pump may have some water in it. Use a rag or a container to catch water. If the wash drum is full of water, use a wet/dry shop vacuum to catch the water. 4. With rag or vacuum ready, unscrew the cap on the left side of the pump and remove trap. 5. Clean the debris from the trap. 6. Reinstall the trap and access panel. 7. Reconnect washer to electrical supply.

Hoses and other rubber parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the temperature and constant high pressure they are subjected to.
