installation instructions (see pages 7-11).
4. Replace immediately worn power cords and loose plugs/power outlets.
5. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door.
6. Do not operate your appliance in the presence of explosive fumes.
7. 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.
8. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammables or explosive

9. Do not reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used
near children.
12. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
13. Hydrogen gas may be produced if the water heater has not been used in
more then 2 weeks. This could be explosive and can explode under certain
circumstances. If this is the case, before using this appliance turn on all
the hot faucets and let the hot water run for a few minutes. This will let the
trapped hydrogen escape. During this process do not turn on an electric
appliance, smoke, light a match/lighter or use a flame to avoid an accident,
as hydrogen gas is flammable and can explode.
14. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in the user-repair instructions that you
understand and have skills to carry out.
