Important Safety Information

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY: Read these instructions carefully before operating the unit.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Read all instructions before using the portable washer.
• Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-clean-
ing solvents, or other fl ammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapours that could ignite or explode.
• Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other fl ammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapours that could ignite or explode.
• 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 a
washing machine, turn on all hot-water faucets and let water fl ow from each for several minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is fl ammable, do not smoke or use an open fl ame during this time.
• Before you throw away your old portable washer: Take off the lid.
• Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the portable washer. Close supervision of children is neces-
sary when the washer is used near children.
• Do not reach into the washer if the agitator or inner tub is moving.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless specifi cally recommended in the us-
er-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions.
• Never clean portable washer parts with fl ammable fl uids. The fumes can create a fi re hazard or explosion.
• Do not place the washer in steamy rooms or where the washer is directly exposed to rain. Moisture may destroy the
electrical insulation causing an electrical shock hazard.
• Do not store, use gasoline, or any other fl ammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other portable wash-
er. The fumes can create a fi re hazard or explosion.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or it's service agent or a similar qualifi ed per-
son in order to avoid a hazard.
• Turn off water supply whenever there will be an extended period of non-use.
• Do not operate the washer when the water pressure is lower than 7 PSI or higher than 0.5MPa to avoid damage of
the inlet system.
Risk of child entrapment. Child entrapment and suffoca-
tion are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
appliances are still dangerous . . . even if they will "just sit
in the garage a few days."
