To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,  
serious injury or death to persons when  
using your washer, follow these basic  
precautions:  
W023  
DANGER  
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.  
DANGER indicates the presence of a  
hazard that will cause severe personal  
injury, death, or substantial property  
damage if the danger is ignored.  
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in  
the INSTALLATION manual for the proper  
grounding of the washer.  
3. Do not wash textiles that have been previously  
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with  
gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, dry-  
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or  
explosive substances as they give off vapors that  
could ignite or explode.  
WARNING  
WARNING indicates the presence of a  
hazard that can cause severe personal  
injury, death, or substantial property  
damage if the warning is ignored.  
4. 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.  
5. 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.  
CAUTION  
CAUTION indicates the presence of a  
hazard that will or can cause minor  
personal injury or property damage if the  
caution is ignored.  
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”  
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.  
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used  
to inform the reader of specific procedures where  
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure  
is not followed.  
6. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.  
Close supervision of children is necessary when  
the washer is used near children. This is a safety  
rule for all appliances.

Safe operation requires an appropriate operating  
environment for both the operator and the machine. If  
questions regarding safety arise, contact the  
manufacturer immediately.  
WARNING  
NEVER insert hands or objects into  
basket until it has completely stopped.  
Doing so could result in serious injury.  
Environmental Conditions  
SW012  
Ambient Temperature. Water in machine will  
To ensure the safety of machine operators, the  
following maintenance checks must be performed  
daily:  
freeze at temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or below.  
Temperatures above 120°F (50°C) will result in  
more frequent motor overheating and, in some  
cases, malfunction or premature damage to solid  
state devices that are used in some models.  
Special cooling devices may be necessary.  
1. Prior to operating machine, verify that all  
warning signs are present and legible. Missing or  
illegible signs must be replaced immediately.  
Make certain that spares are available.  
Water pressure switches are affected by increases  
and decreases in temperature. Every 25°F (10°C)  
change in temperature will have a 1% effect on  
the water level.  
2. Check door interlock before starting operation of  
machine:  
a. Attempt to start machine with door open.  
Machine should not start with door open.  
Humidity. Relative humidity above 90% may  
cause machine’s electronics or motors to  
malfunction or may trip ground fault interrupter.  
Corrosion problems may occur on some metal  
components in machine.  
b. Close door without locking it and attempt to  
start machine. Machine should not start with  
door unlocked.  
c. Close and lock door and start a cycle. Attempt  
to open door while cycle is in progress. Door  
should not open.  
If relative humidity is below 30%, belts and  
rubber hoses may eventually develop dry rot.  
This condition can result in hose leaks, which  
may cause safety hazards external to machine in  
conjunction with adjacent electrical equipment.  
If door lock and interlock are not functioning  
properly, call a service technician.  
3. Do not attempt to operate machine if any of the  
following conditions are present:  
Ventilation. The need for make-up air openings  
for such laundry room accessories as dryers,  
ironers, water heaters, etc., must be evaluated  
periodically. Louvers, screens or other separating  
devices may reduce available air opening  
significantly.  
a. Door does not remain securely locked during  
entire cycle.  
b. Excessively high water level is evident.  
c. Machine is not connected to a properly  
grounded circuit.  
Radio Frequency Emissions. A filter is available  
for machines in installations where floor space is  
shared with equipment sensitive to radio  
frequency emissions.  
Do not bypass any safety devices in machine.  
Elevation. If machine is to be operated at  
elevations of over 3280 feet (1000 m) above sea  
level, pay special attention to water levels and  
electronic settings (particularly temperature) or  
desired results may not be achieved.

Safety Information  
Input and Output Services  
DANGER  
Water Pressure. Best performance will be  
realized if water is provided at a pressure of 30 –  
85 psi (2 – 5.7 bar). Although machine will  
function properly at lower pressure, increased fill  
times will occur. Water pressure higher than 100  
psi (6.7 bar) may result in damage to machine  
plumbing. Component failure(s) and personal  
injury could result.  
Do not place volatile or flammable fluids  
in any machine. Do not clean the machine  
with volatile or flammable fluids such as  
acetone, lacquer thinners, enamel  
reducers, carbon tetrachloride, gasoline,  
benzene, naptha, etc. Doing so could  
result in serious personal injury and/or  
damage to the machine.  
Steam Heat (Optional) Pressure. Best  
performance will be realized if steam is provided  
at a pressure of 30 – 80 psi (2 – 5.4 bar). Steam  
pressure higher than 125 psi (8.5 bar) may result  
in damage to steam components and may cause  
personal injury.  
SW002  
Water Damage. Do not spray machine with  
water. Short circuiting and serious damage may  
result. Repair immediately all seepage due to  
worn or damaged gaskets, etc.  
For machines equipped with optional steam heat,  
install piping in accordance with approved  
commercial steam practices. Failure to install  
supplied steam filter may void warranty.  
Machine Location  
Foundation. The concrete floor must be of  
sufficient strength and thickness to handle floor  
loads generated by high extract speeds of  
machine.  
Drainage System. Provide drain lines or troughs  
large enough to accommodate total number of  
gallons that could be released if all machines on  
site drained at same time from highest attainable  
level. If troughs are used, they should be covered  
to support light foot traffic.  
Service/Maintenance Space. Provide sufficient  
space to allow comfortable performance of  
service procedures and routine preventive  
maintenance.  
Power. For personal safety and for proper  
operation, machine must be grounded in  
accordance with state and local codes. Ground

Safety Information  
A clean power supply free from voltage spikes  
and surges is absolutely essential for machines  
equipped with AC inverter drive. Inconsistencies  
(peaks and valleys) in power supply can cause  
AC inverter drive to generate nuisance errors.  
DirectDrive  
Machines equipped with DirectDrive require special  
attention with regard to operating environment.  
An especially dusty or linty environment will  
require more frequent cleaning of AC inverter  
drive cooling fan filter and of AC inverter drive  
itself.  
If voltage is above 230 Volt for 200 Volt  
installation or 460 Volt for 400 Volt installation,  
ask power company to correct. As an alternative,  
a step-down transformer kit is available from  
distributor. If voltage is above 240 Volt for 200  
Volt installation or 480 Volt for 400 Volt  
Power line fluctuations from sources such as  
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can  
adversely affect machines equipped with AC  
inverter drive. Proper suppression devices should  
be utilized on incoming power to machine to  
avoid problems.  
installations, a buckboost transformer is required.  
Sufficient space to perform service procedures  
and routine preventive maintenance is especially

Maintenance  
Do not leave sanitizers or sterilizing solutions on  
stainless steel equipment for prolonged periods  
of time.  
Care of Stainless Steel  
Remove dirt and grease with detergent and water.  
Thoroughly rinse and dry after washing.  
When an external chemical supply is used, ensure  
no siphoning of chemicals occurs when washer-  
extractor is not in use. Highly concentrated  
chemicals can cause severe damage to stainless  
steel and other components with machine.  
Damage of this kind is not covered by  
Avoid contact with dissimilar metals to prevent  
galvanic corrosion when salty or acidic solutions  
are present.  
Do not allow salty or acidic solutions to  
evaporate and dry on stainless steel. Wipe clean  
of any residues.  
manufacturer’s warranty. Locate pump below  
washer-extractor’s injection point to prevent  
siphoning of chemicals into machine.  
Rub in direction of polish lines or “grain” of  
stainless steel to avoid scratch marks when using  
abrasive cleaners. Use stainless steel wool or soft,  
non-metal bristle brushes. Do not use ordinary  
steel wool or steel brushes.  
If stainless steel appears to be rusting the source  
of the rust may actually be an iron or steel part  
not made of stainless steel, such as a nail or  
screw. Tip: Paint all carbon steel parts with a  
heavy protective coating. Stainless steel fasteners  
should be used whenever possible.  
Remove discoloration or heat tint from  
overheating by scouring with a powder or by  
employing special chemical solutions.
