Risks in handling washing machines
WARNING
Risk of poisoning!
Washing detergents and fabric-care
products can be harmful to health.
■ Keep these products out of the reach
of children and pets.
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to burns.
■ Do not touch the water outlet hose
when water is being drained.
Risk of scalding!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to scalding caused by hot suds.
■ Fix the water outlet hose properly to
the drain or bath to prevent it from
slipping due to the recoil caused by
draining.
■ If the water outlet hose is fixed to the
edge of the drain or bath, do not use
the drain or bath whilst the appliance
is in operation.
■ Do not touch the outlet hose during
draining as the suds may be hot.
■ For drains make sure that the cross
section of the discharge pipe is great
enough that the drain cannot over-
flow.
■ Leave the suds to cool before drain-
ing them (e.g. during emergency
draining).
■ Never open the loading door with force.
Safety
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to explosions.
■ Do not store any textiles that were
recently treated with chemical deter-
gents such as white spirit or stain re-
mover in the washing machine. Such
items should first be left to air and dry.
■ Do not store any combustible or easi-
ly flammable liquids in the vicinity of
the washing machine.
Fire hazard!
Insufficient ventilation can cause fires.
■ Do not set up the appliance on car-
pets or rugs if it has ventilation holes
on the base of its housing.
■ Do not close off air vents in the appli-
ance housing.
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury.
■ The appliance is very heavy. Nev-
er transport or carry the appliance
alone; always with the assistance of
another person.
■ Remove all obstacles on the transport
route and from the installation loca-
tion, e.g. open doors and clear away
objects lying on the floor.
■ Take care to prevent any risk of trip-
ping when laying out the mains cord
and hoses.
