• Only use the washing machine for washing laundry, as described
in the instruction manual. The machine is not intended for dry
cleaning.
• In case of incorrect appliance connection, incorrect use, or
servicing by an unauthorized person, the user shall bear the cost
of any damage.
• Only use detergents intended for the washing machine!
• Only use agents for machine washing and care of laundry. We
shall not be responsible for any damages or discolouration of
gaskets and plastic parts resulting from incorrect use of bleaching
or colouring agents.
• Bleaches that contain chlorine can be replaced with oxygen-based
bleaches. Otherwise, a neutralization cycle should be performed
by running the Cotton program at the highest temperature. For
best results, use hydrogen peroxide or oxygen-based detergents.
• Do not use colourants (dyes) or bleaching substances (substances
for discolouration or removal of colourants) as they contain
sulphuric compounds that could cause corrosion.
• Excessive use of products containing chlorine compounds
increases the risk of premature failure of appliance components.
This depends on the concentration of chlorine, exposure time,
and temperature.
•
DANGER OF FIRE!
Do not use detergents that contain solvents as this could lead
to release of poisonous gases, damage to the machine, and
risk of fire and explosion.
• Before using the appliance for the first time, remove the transport
bolts and all other transport protection devices. See chapter
"BEFORE FIRST USE/Transport protection".
• The machine is not intended for use by persons (including
