IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
■ 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
the 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 during this
time.
■ Do not repair or replace any part of the washer/dryer or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in
this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry
out.
■ Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
■ Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similarly textured rubber-like materials.
■ Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
■ The interior of the machine and dryer exhaust vent should
be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
■ See "Electrical Requirements" section for grounding
instructions.
