SAFETY

 

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.

PROPER
INSTALLATION

 

CAUTION

 

The base opening must not be obstructed by carpeting when the washing machine 

is installed on a carpeted floor.

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.

This booklet is divided into 2 parts : Warning and Caution.
