Safety
■
Only connect the washing machine
to a water supply with an inlet wa-
ter pressure between 0.1 MPa and
1.0 MPa (1.0 to 10.0 bar). For high-
er water pressure, a pressure regula-
tor needs to be installed. Your water
company will be able to provide infor-
mation about the water pressure in
your home.
■
Close the valve again after each use,
and before cleaning the water inlet
filter. Otherwise there is a risk of wa-
ter damage.
■
Only use the supplied hose set to con-
nect to the water supply. Do not use
old hose sets.
■
Do not extend the outlet hose and do
not replace with another hose.
■
The outlet hose should not be kinked
or twisted.
■
The bend of the outlet hose must
be at least 60 cm and no more than
100 cm above the floor to guarantee
perfect function of the water outlet.
■
The outlet hose must remain in the
retaining clip on the rear side of the
appliance, thus the bend always re-
mains above the water line in the ap-
pliance. The end of the hose must not
be submerged in the pumped water.
■
Remove foreign bodies such as nee-
dles, nails, coins, matches, staples,
paper clips or similar from clothing
pockets.
■
Only use dyeing or bleaching agents
that are suitable for washing ma-
chines.
■
Only use tap water for washing.
■
Never attempt to open the door with
force during or at the end of a cycle.
The door is automatically released af-
ter a certain time and can be opened
effortlessly.
■
Do not use any harsh or abrasive
cleaning agents to clean the washing
machine. They could damage the sur-
faces and render the rubber seal brit-
tle and fragile.
■
Do not use any pointed, sharp or an-
gular objects to clean the rubber seal.
