Safety
NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
Improper transport and installation
may result in damage to the appliance.
■
If a trolley is used to move the ap-
pliance, the appliance must be lifted
as shown on the packaging. Always
transport the appliance vertically.
■
Do not use any sharp or pointed ob-
jects when unpacking the appliance.
■
Do not pull on the appliance lid.
■
Remove all packaging material be-
fore first use.
■
Make sure the appliance is not con-
nected to the power supply whilst the
transport safety devices are being re-
moved or installed.
■
For rugs, carpet, parquet or wooden
floorboards, place a stable wooden
plate measuring at least 40 × 60 cm
underneath the appliance.
Do not stand the appliance on rugs or
carpets. Otherwise, it may not be able
to properly ventilate, which can result
in overheating and damage to it.
■
When positioning on a wooden plate
or base, these must be equipped with
indentations for the screw-on feet so
that the appliance does not migrate
off it when spinning.
■
Do not place the appliance on top of
other appliances and do not use it as
a base for other appliances (e.g. for
dryers).
■
Do not sit or stand on the appliance.
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to water damage.
■
Do not leave the appliance unsuper-
vised for long periods of time while
the valve is open. When draining
as a result of leakiness, substantial
amounts of water may leak out.
■
Do not connect the appliance to the
cold water supply.
■
Only connect the appliance to a wa-
ter supply with an inlet water pressure
between 0.1 Mpa and 1.0 Mpa (1.0 to
10.0 bar). For higher water pressure,
a pressure regulator needs to be in-
stalled. Enquire about the water pres-
sure with the local waterworks.
■
Close the water inlet tap after every
use.
■
Close the water inlet tap before clean-
ing the water inlet filter.
■
Only use the hose set delivered with
the appliance to connect to the water
supply. Do not use old hose sets.
■
Do not extend the water outlet hose
or replace it with another hose.
■
Make sure that the water outlet hose
is not kinked or twisted.
■
Be aware that substantial amounts
of water may leak out during emer-
gency draining.
■
Ensure that the water drain is not
above the maximum height (see “In-
tended use”).
■
Ensure that the water outlet hose is
in the retaining clips on the back of
the appliance so that the curvature
always remains above the waterline.
■
Do not submerge the end of the hose
in the pumped out water.
