Safety Information

Throughout this manual and on machine decals, you will find precautionary statements (“CAUTION,”

“WARNING,” and “DANGER”) followed by specific instructions. These precautions are intended for the personal

safety of the operator, user, servicer and those maintaining the machine.

DANGER

Danger indicates the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property

damage if the danger is ignored.

WARNING

Warning indicates the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property

damage if the warning is ignored.

CAUTION

Caution indicates the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor personal injury or property damage if the

caution is ignored.

Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT” and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.

IMPORTANT

The word “IMPORTANT” is used to inform the reader of specific procedures where minor machine damage will

occur if the procedure is not followed.

NOTE

The word “NOTE” is used to communicate installation, operation, maintenance or servicing information that is

important but not hazard related.

General Safety Precautions

In the interest of safety, some general precautions relating to the operation of this machine follow.

• Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this product according to the manufacturer’s

instructions may result in conditions which can produce serious injury, death and/or property

damage.

• Do not repair or replace any part of the product or attempt any servicing unless specifically

recommended or published in this Service Manual and that you understand and have the

skills to carry out.

• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be

reconnected to ensure that the product is properly grounded and to reduce the risk of fire,

electric shock, serious injury, or death.

W006R1

WARNING

F232205 3

Safety Information

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions you do

not understand.

Important Safety Instructions

1. Read all instructions before using the washer.

2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in

the INSTALLATION manual (supplied with your

washer-extractor) for the proper grounding of the

washer-extractor.

3. Do not wash textiles that have been previously

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with

gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, dry-

cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive

substances. They give off vapors that could ignite

or explode.

4. 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.

5. 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

washer-extractor, 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 electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:

• Disconnect electric power to the washer-extractor before servicing.

• Never start the washer-extractor with any guards/panels removed.

• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be

reconnected to ensure that the washer-extractor is properly grounded. W460

WARNING

Repairs that are made to your products by unqualified persons can result in hazards due to

improper assembly or adjustments subjecting you, or the inexperienced person making such

repairs, to the risk of serious injury, electrical shock, or death. W007

WARNING

If you or an unqualified person perform service on your product, you must assume the

responsibility for any personal injury or property damage which may result. The manufacturer

will not be responsible for any injury or property damage arising from improper service and/or

service procedures. W008

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death to persons when using your

washer, follow these basic precautions: W023E

WARNING

4F232205

Safety Information

6. Do not allow children to play on or in a washer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when

the washer is used near children.

7. Before the washer is removed from service or

discarded, remove the door to the washing

compartment.

8. Do not reach into the washer if the wash drum is

moving.

9. Do not install or store the washer where it will be

exposed to water and/or weather.

10. Do not tamper with the controls.

11. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or

attempt any servicing unless specifically

recommended in the user-maintenance

instructions or in published user-repair

instructions that the user understands and has the

skills to carry out.

12. To reduce the risk of an electrical shock or fire,

DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to

connect the washer to an electrical power source.

13. Use the washer only for its intended purpose,

washing clothes.

14. Never wash machine parts or automotive parts in

the machine. This could result in serious damage

to the basket.

15. ALWAYS disconnect the washer from its

electrical supply before attempting any service.

16. Install the washer according to the

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All

connections for water, drain, electrical power and

grounding must comply with local codes and,

when required, be made by licensed personnel.

17. To reduce the risk of fire, textiles which have

traces of any flammable substances such as

vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil,

flammable chemicals, thinner, etc. or anything

containing wax or chemicals such as in mops or

cleaning cloths, must not be put into the washer.

These flammable substances may cause the fabric

to ignite.

18. Do not use fabric softeners or products to

eliminate static unless recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

19. Keep the washer in good condition. Bumping or

dropping the washer can damage its safety

features. If this occurs, have the washer checked

by a qualified service person.

20. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced

by a special cord or assembly available from the

manufacturer or its service agent.

21. Be sure that water connections have a shut-off

valve and that fill hose connections are tight.

CLOSE the shut-off valves at the end of each

wash day.

22. The loading door MUST BE CLOSED any time

the washer is to fill, tumble or spin. DO NOT

bypass the loading door switch and permit the

washer to operate with the loading door open.

23. Always read and follow the manufacturer’s

instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning

aids. Heed all warnings and precautions. To

reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns,

keep them out of the reach of children at all times

(preferably in a locked cabinet).

24. Always follow the fabric care instructions

supplied by the textile manufacturer.

25. Never operate the washer with any guards and/or

panels removed.

26. DO NOT operate the washer with missing or

broken parts.

27. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.

28. Failure to install, maintain and/or operate this

washer according to the manufacturer's

instructions may result in conditions that can

produce bodily injury and/or property damage.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this

manual are not meant to cover all possible

conditions and situations that may occur. Common

sense, caution and care must be exercised when
