Safety
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 supply tap after every
use.
■
Close the water supply tap before
cleaning the water inlet fi lter.
■
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.
■
If the appliance is located in a room
susceptible to frost, the water in the
appliance can freeze in below-zero
temperatures. For this reason, drain
away the leftover water if there is a
risk of frost to avoid damage to the
appliance.
■
Never attempt to open the door with
force during or at the end of a cycle.
Improper fi lling of the appliance can
lead to damage.
■
Make sure that there are no foreign
objects in the pockets of garments in
the laundry, e.g. needles, nails, coins,
matches, staples, clips, etc.
■
Only use dyeing or bleaching agents
that are suitable for washer-dryers.
■
Never open the dispensing drawer
when the machine is running.
■
Never load more than the proposed
quantity of textiles at once (see “In-
tended use”).
■
Never try to open the appliance door
with force whilst a cycle is in progress
or once a cycle has ended. Only open
the appliance door once it has been
released automatically.
Improper cleaning of the appliance can
cause damage to it.
■
Never use harsh, granular, soda, acid,
solvent-based or abrasive cleaners.
They can damage the surfaces or
make the rubber sleeve brittle and
fragile. All-purpose cleaners with a
neutral pH are recommended.
■
Do not use pointed, sharp or angular
objects for cleaning the rubber sleeve.
They can make the rubber sleeve
leaky.
■
Check and clean fi lters and gaskets
regularly.
