Warning
  • Use two or more people to move and install the appliance. Failure to do so can result in back injury or other injury.

  • The appliance is heavy. Protect the floor when moving the appliance for cleaning or service. Always pull the appliance straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or walk the appliance when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.

  • Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the appliance. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.

Note
  • Remove tape and any temporary labels from your appliance before using. Do not remove any warning labels, the model and serial number label, or the Tech Sheet that is located under the front of the appliance.

  • To remove any remaining tape or glue, rub the area briskly with your thumb. Tape or glue residue can also be easily removed by rubbing a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.

  • Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your appliance.
