Warning
• Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not
been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these
circumstances. If the HOT water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the
possibility of damage or injury by turning on all Hot water faucets and allowing them to
run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance which is connected
to the HOT water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to
escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance
during this process.
Caution
• The base opening must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine is installed
on a carpeted floor.
• Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the
weather.
If the product is exposed to such conditions, electric shock, fire, break down or
deformation may occur.
• Properly ground washer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details
in Installation Instructions.
If not grounded properly, break down and leakage of electricity may occur, which may
cause electric shock.
• Must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
If the plug is placed between the wall and the machine, it may get damaged, possibly
causing fire or electric shock.
• Make sure the plug is completely pushed into the outlet.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock and fire due to overheating.
