Important Safety Instructions

(Save These Instructions)

1. Read all instructions before using the unit.

2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in

the INSTALLATION manual for the proper

grounding of the unit.

3. Do not wash or dry 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.

4. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be

produced in a hot water system that has not been

used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS

IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not

been used for such a period, before using a

washing machine or combination washer-dryer,

turn on all hot water faucets and let the water

flow from each for several minutes. This will

release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is

flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame

during this time.

5. Do not allow children to play on or in the unit.

Close supervision of children is necessary when

the unit is used near children. This is a safety rule

for all appliances.

6. Before the unit is removed from service or

discarded, remove the doors to the washing and

drying compartments.

7. Do not reach into the washer or dryer if the

cylinders are revolving.

8. Do not install or store the unit where it will be

exposed to water and/or weather.

9. Do not tamper with the controls.

10. Do not repair or replace any part of the unit, or

attempt any servicing unless specifically

recommended in the User-Maintenance

instructions or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the

skills to carry out.

11. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or

other flammable or explosive substances to the

wash water. These substances give off vapors that

could ignite or explode.

12. Do not use fabric softeners or products to

eliminate static unless recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

13. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO

NOT use an adapter to connect the unit to the

electrical power source.

14. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics

or articles containing foam rubber or similarly

textured rubberlike materials.

15. ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A

layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency

and prolongs drying time.

16. Keep area around the exhaust opening and

adjacent surrounding area free from the

accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.

17. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct

should be cleaned periodically by qualified

service personnel.

18. If not installed, operated and maintained in

accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions

or if there is damage to or mishandling of this

product’s components, use of this product could

expose you to substances in the fuel or from fuel

combustion which can cause death or serious

illness and which are known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm.

19. Washer and dryer will not operate with the

loading door open. DO NOT by-pass the door

safety switches by permitting the washer or dryer

to operate with the doors open. The washer and

dryer will stop tumbling when the doors are

opened. Do not use the washer or dryer if they do

not stop tumbling when the doors are opened or

start tumbling without pressing the START

mechanisms. Remove the unit from use and call

the service person.

20. Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or

cooking oil in the washer or dryer. Due to the oil,

the fabric may catch on fire by itself.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,

or injury to persons when using your

stacked washer and dryer, follow these

basic precautions.

21. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT put clothes

which have traces of any flammable substances

such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,

thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or

chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or

anything dry-cleaned at home with a dry-

cleaning solvent in the dryer.

22. Use your washer only for its intended purpose,

washing clothes.

23. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,

drying clothes.

24. Always disconnect the electrical power to the

washer and dryer before attempting service to

either unit. Disconnect the power cords by

grasping the plug, not the cord.

25. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced

by a special cord or assembly available from the

manufacturer or its service agent.

26. Install this unit according to the

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All

connections for electrical power, grounding and

gas supply must comply with local codes and be

made by licensed personnel when required. Do

not do it yourself unless you know how!

27. Keep your unit in good condition. Bumping or

dropping the unit can damage safety features. If

this occurs, have your unit checked by a qualified

service person.

28. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer

stops.

29. Always read and follow manufacturer’s

instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning

aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce

the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep

them out of reach of children at all times

(preferably in a locked cabinet).

30. Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies

unless the label says it can be done. If they are

dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to

remove particles of fiberglass.

31. Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve

and that fill hose connections are tight. CLOSE

the shut-off valves at the end of each wash day.

32. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions

supplied by the garment manufacturer.

33. Never operate the unit with any guards and/or

panels removed.

34. DO NOT operate the unit with missing or broken

parts.

35. DO NOT by-pass any safety devices.

36. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this

machine according to the manufacturer’s

instructions may result in conditions which can

produce bodily injury and/or property damage.

37. Do not operate washer and dryer if the units have

been separated.

IMPORTANT: Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning

machines create acids when drawn through the

heater of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive

to the dryer as well as to the laundry load being

dried. Be sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.

IMPORTANT: Have your unit installed properly.

Don’t do it yourself unless you know how!

NOTE: The WARNINGS and IMPORTANT

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this

manual are not meant to cover all possible

conditions and situations that may occur. Common

sense, caution and care must be exercised when

installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent

or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions

you do not understand.

Use and Care

Before Washing

Prepare Wash Load

Empty Pockets and Cuffs

Make sure all pockets are empty and turn them inside

out. One bobby pin, metal or plastic toy, nail or sharp

object in a load can catch laundry and cause tears.

Facial tissue left in a pocket will produce extreme

“lint.”A crayon or lipstick in a wash load may cause

stains that cannot be removed. Roll down cuffs and

shake out grass, sand, and gravel.

Mend Rips and Tears

Little holes can become bigger in the washer. Mend

holes and tears before placing garments in the washer.

Close Zipper and Fasten Hooks

These can catch on garments in a wash load and tear

them. Tie belts and sashes so they won’t wind around

clothes.

Check for Colorfastness

Squeeze a portion of garment in warm or hot sudsy

water. If the color bleeds or runs, wash the item

separately in cold water.

Sort

Proper sorting is easy if you follow a few guidelines:

1. Sort by color.

Figure 1

2. Sort by fabric and construction.

Figure 2

3. Sort by care label.

Figure 3

4. Sort by type and amount of soil.

Children’s play clothes, as well as work clothes,

will need extra treatment. Lightly soiled clothes

can become dingy if washed with heavily soiled

items.

Pretreat

Pretreat shirt collars and cuffs with a pre-wash product

or liquid detergent when placing them in the washer.

Before washing, treat special stains with bar soap,

liquid detergent or a paste of water and granular

detergent. Use a pretreat soil and stain remover.

Load Articles

Load items by the amount of space they take up, not by

their weight. Mix large and small items in a load to get

the best washing results.

Load items loosely into the wash drum. The bulk of

the clothes rather than the weight will determine load

size.

Load Sizes

Load sizes vary. Small and large items should be

washed together to create a balanced load. If washing

a large item, two bath towels should be added to even

the load. Smaller loads can create an unbalanced

condition and cause premature wear on the washer. Do

not hesitate to fill the entire inner drum of the washer.

The load will compress a great deal when wet. This

allows room for proper tumbling.

Water

Water Level

The washer will automatically adjust the water level to

the type and size of the load during any fill.

Water Hardness

Figure 4

NOTE: One grain per U.S. gallon equals 17.1 parts

per million (P.P.M.).

Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon

(G.P.G.) or parts per million (P.P.M.). To learn your

water hardness, call your Water Department or State

Extension Service. Hard water will not remove soil as

well as soft water and can result in gray, dingy laundry.

To get clothes clean in hard water, use more detergent

but avoid oversudsing. Do not use soap.

Hard Water May Be Softened By:

1. A mechanical water softener installed in your

home.

2. The use of a packaged water conditioner.

Soft Water

Water should be soft enough to allow soaps and

detergents to remove soil effectively. Clothes will be

whiter and brighter when washed and rinsed in soft

water.

W120I

SOFT WATER

10 grains per U.S. gallon

MODERATELY HARD WATER

20 grains per U.S. gallon

HARD WATER

50 grains per U.S. gallon

VERY HARD WATER

Over 50 grains per U.S. gallon
