Electrical & Mechanical Hazards
Major appliances operate at 120V to 240V alternating current (AC) and feature rotating drums, high-pressure water connections, and heating elements capable of causing severe injury, electrical shock, fire, or property damage.
Always disconnect electrical power and turn off water supply valves before accessing appliance cabinets. If you are not fully confident in your ability to perform a procedure safely, stop immediately and contact a licensed appliance repair technician.
