the weather.
■ Properly ground washer to conform with all
governing codes and ordinances. Follow details
in Installation Instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING! For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
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.
PROPER INSTALLATION
This washer must be properly installed and located
in accordance with the Installation Instructions before
it is used. If you did not receive an Installation
Instructions sheet, you can receive one by visiting
Hotpoint.com, or by calling 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737).
■ Keep the area underneath and around your
appliances free of combustible materials such
as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
■ Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is
used by or near children. Do not allow children to
play on, with, or inside this or any other appliance.
YOUR LAUNDRY AREA
■ Never reach into washer while it is moving.
Wait until the machine has completely stopped
before opening the lid.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.
Mixing different chemicals can produce
a toxic gas which may cause death.
■ Do not wash or dry articles that have been
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
combustible or explosive substances (such as
wax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry-cleaning
solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or
explode. Do not add these substances to the
wash water. Do not use or place these substances
around your washer or dryer during operation.
■ The laundry process can reduce the flame
retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,
carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s wash
and care instructions.
■ To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug
this appliance from the power supply or disconnect
the washer at the household distribution panel by
removing the fuse or switching off the circuit
breaker before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to
an off position or pressing PAUSE does NOT
disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
■ Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is
damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled,
or has missing or broken parts, including a
damaged cord or plug.
WHEN USING THE WASHER
■ Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses
and valves and to minimize leakage if a break or
rupture should occur. Check the condition of the
fill hoses; they should be replaced every 5 years.
■ Before discarding a washer, or removing it from
service, remove the washer lid to prevent children
from hiding inside.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
this appliance unless specifically recommended in
this Owner’s Manual, or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
WHEN NOT IN USE
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
