pre-treated in solvent based cleaning
agents must be thoroughly rinsed in
clean water before being washed in the
washer-extractor.
~
Never use solvent based cleaning
agents (e.g. those containing benzine)
in the washer-extractor, as this may
result in damage to component parts
and create toxic fumes. Such agents
also pose a fire and explosion hazard.
~
Benzine, petrol, paraffin or any
easily flammable liquid must not be
stored or used near the appliance
stack. Fire and explosion risk.
~
Only use dyes specified by the
manufacturer as being suitable for use
in a washing machine. Always observe
the manufacturer's instructions
carefully.
~
Colour run and dye removers
contain sulphur compounds which can
cause damage such as corrosion. Do
not use these products in the
washer-extractor.
~
Avoid contact of stainless steel
surfaces (front, lid, casing) with liquid
cleaning and disinfecting agents which
contain chlorine or sodium
hypochlorite. These agents can have a

It is particularly important to observe
manufacturer's instructions when using
a combination of cleaning agents and
special application products. Only use
the product for the application
described by the manufacturer to avoid
any material damage or the occurrence
of strong chemical reactions.
~
The tumble dryer must only be used
when it is connected to a suitable
ducting system. The installation site
must be adequately ventilated.
~
The ducting must not be connected
to
– a chimney or vent flue which is in
use,
– or to ducting which ventilates rooms
with fireplaces,
– or to chimneys being used by other
appliances.
Smoke or exhaust fumes can cause
poisoning.
~
Check all parts of the extraction
system on a regular basis (e.g. wall
vent, external grille, bends in the
ducting etc.) and make sure they are all
free of any hindrance. A build-up of fluff
will prevent a free flow of air through the
system. If the dryer is to be connected
to an existing ducting system, this must
be checked for suitability beforehand.
~
Adequate ventilation is essential to
avoid the danger of asphyxia and
toxic fumes where another appliance
