2Important Safety Instructions

BWARNING

• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons while

using your appliance follow basic safety 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 (acetone, alcohol,

kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,

turpentine, waxes and wax removers) 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 accumulated hydrogen gas. As the

gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame this time.

• Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close

supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used

near children.

• Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove

the door and the power cord / main plug to prevent accidents.

• Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving. Wait until the

drum has completely stopped before opening the door.

• Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the

weather and direct sunlight.

• Do not tamper with controls.

Owner’s Guide & Installation Instructions 9 / English

Important Safety Instructions

• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any

servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-maintenance

instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you

understand and have the skills to carry out.

• This appliance must only be used for the purpose of washing,

rinsing and spinning machine-washable items using laundry

additives that are suitable for use in washers . The appliance

manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by

improper or unintended use of the appliance.

• Only detergents, softeners and additives suitable for use in

HE (High-efficiency) washers may be used. Always follow the

manufacturers when using these products.

• Always follow the fabric care instructions of garment manufacturers.

• Do not touch the door glass while washing at high temperatures.

Danger of burning!

• Do not sit on top of the washer.

• Do not climb onto the washer.

• Destroy the shipping carton, plastic bag and other packing

materials after the washer is unpacked. Keep children away from

these packing materials. Danger of suffocation from plastic sheets

and cartons!

• Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar

and/or rust remover when washing. This mixture can produce

hazardous fume which may cause death.

partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a

damaged cord or plug.

10 / English Front-Loading Automatic Washer

Important Safety Instructions

• Store laundry detergents and additives in a cool, dry place out

of children’s reach due to danger of chemical poisoning and skin

irritation. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions when using laundry

products.

• Do not machine wash fiberglass materials. Small particles can stick

to fabrics washed in following cycles and may lead to skin irritation.

• Do not wash items stained with vegetable oil, cooking oil or

petroleum. These items may contain some flammable oils after

laundering and the fabric may smoke or catch fire by itself.

• Be sure to unplug the power cable before attempting maintenance

or cleaning of your appliance to minimize the risk of electric shock.

Always unplug the cable by grasping the plug, not the cord.

• Do not use wet hands when plugging/unplugging the power cable.

• Check the water inlet and drain hose connections regularly for any

leakage. Hoses should be replaced every 5 years.

• Do not leave the washer door open to prevent children hurt

themselves by hanging on the door or going inside the drum.

• Be careful when the appliance is draining hot water. Danger of

burning!

• At the end of a washing day, turn off the water faucets to prevent

any leakage that may occur due to a faulty condition of the

appliance.

• Check the appliance and inlet hose connections for water leakage

after each use. If there is leakage, turn off the appliance and water

faucets and call service.

• Do not machine wash items having large or heavy metal parts such

as buttons or buckles. These items could severely damage the

appliance.

• Always be sure to empty all foreign materials from the pockets of

your clothing as small items such as coins, pins etc. could severely

damage the appliance.

• Do not install and operate the appliance in places exposed to

temperatures below freezing. Frozen water may cause severe

damage by bursting hoses and pump.
