6. Toavoidthepossibilityoffireorexplo-

sion:

a, Do not wash items that have been

previously cleaned in, washed in,

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, other flam-

mable or explosive substances as

they give off vapors that could ignite

or explode. Hand wash and line dry

any items containing these sub-

stances.

Any material on which you have

used a cleaning solvent, or which is

saturated with flammable liquids or

solids, should not be placed in the

washer until all traces of these Iiq-

uids or solids and their fumes have

been removed.

These items include acetone,dena-

tured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene,

some liquid household cleaners,

some spot removers, turpentine,

waxesand wax removers.

Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning

solvents, or other flammable or

explosive substances to the wash

water. These substances give off

vapors that could igniteor explode.

Under certain conditions, hydrogen

gas may be produced in a hotwater

systemthat has not been used for 2

weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS

IS EXPLOSIVE. Ifthe hotwater sys-

tem 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 hydrogengas. As

the gas is flammable,do not smoke

or use an open flame during this

time.

7. Do not reach into the appliance if the

tub or agitator ismoving.

8. Do not allowchildrenor petsto playon,

in, or in front of the appliance. Close

supervisionisnecessarywhentheappli-

ance isusednear childrenand pets.

9. Do nottamper with controls.

10. Do not repair or replaceany part ofthe

appliance or attempt any servicing

unless specifically recommended in

published user-repair instructions that

you understand and have the skills to

carry out.

11. Unplug power supply cord before

attemptingto serviceyour washer.

12. The agitator should not be removed. If

the agitator is removed, it must be

replaced by pushing down completely

13.

and the locking screw tightened before

thewasher is operated.

Store laundryaidsand other material in

a cool, dry placewhere childrencannot

reachthem.

14. Donot wash or dry itemsthat are soiled

with vegetable or cooking oil. These

items may contain some oil after laun-

dering.Duetothe remainingoil, thefab-

ric may smokeor catchfire by itself.

15. Do not use chlorine bleach and ammo-

nia or acids (such as vinegar or rust

remover) in the same wash. Hazardous

fumescan form.

16.

17.

18.

Do notmachinewash fiberglassmateri-

als. Small particles can stick to fabrics

washed in following loads and cause

skin irritation.

Before the appliance is removed from

service or discarded, remove the door

to thewashing compartment.

Inlet hoses are subject to damage and

deterioration over time. Check the

hoses periodically for bulges, kinks,

cuts, wear or leaks and replace them

The dispenser automatically dilutes liquid

chlorine bleach beforeit reachesyour wash

load.Touse,follow these steps:

1. Measure liquid chlorine bleachcarefully,

followingthe instructionson the bottle.

2. Add the bleach to the dispenser before

adding theload.Avoidsplashing or over-

filling thedispenser.Wipe up spills.

• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine

bleachdirectlyonto theload or intothe

wash tub. It isa powerfulchemicaland

can cause fabric damage, such as

tearing or color loss, if not used prop-

erly.

• If you prefer to use color-safe, non-

chlorine bleach, pour it into the wash

tub with your detergent. Do not pour

non-chlorine bleaches into the bleach

dispenser.

This dispenserautomatically releasesliquid •

fabric softenerat the proper time during the

cycle.Touse, follow these steps:

1. Pour liquid fabric softener into the dis-

penserusing the amount recommended

on the package. •

2. Add warm water to the dispenser until it

reaches the MAX line.Wipe up spills.

• Donot stop thewasher during thefirst

spin. This will cause the dispenser to

emptytoo soon.

• Never pour fabric softener directly on

the load. Itwill leavespots and stains.

• Use the dispenserfor liquid fabric sof-

teners only. Clean the area in and

around the dispenser frequently with

hotwater, detergentand a soft brush.

Use either liquid or granular laundry

detergent. For best results, be sure

detergent is added to the washer

BEFORE the load and be sure wash

water is above 6G°F.

Use the correct amount of detergent for

the load size,soil level and water condi-

tions. Use more detergent if you have

hard water and/or very soiled loads.

If you havesoft water or a lightly soiled

load, use less detergent.(See manufac-

turer's instructions.)

Wipe up any detergent spills on the

washer.

• Put dry, unfolded clothes loosely in the

tub, up to thetop rowof holesfor a max-

imum load.

Do not wrap large items like sheets

around the agitator.

Mix large and small items for best circu-

lation. Wash bulky items like blankets

separately.

When laundering wrinkle free items or

items of delicate construction, washable

woolens or loosely knit items, never use

less than the MEDIUM water level set-

ting. This will minimize shrinkage, wrin-

kling and pulling of seams.

For best results, add the detergent to

washtub beforeadding the load.

Close lid carefully to avoidslamming.
