Unplug the washer before servicing or cleaning it; pressing the power button does not disconnect it from the electrical supply. Source: GE Appliances - Washer Owner's Manual
Do not let children play in, on or with a washer, and remove the lid or door before a washer is discarded or taken out of service so a child cannot become trapped inside. Source: GE Appliances - Washer Owner's Manual
