parts from the device or taking them
out of the accessory bag and putting
them in their mouths.
Children and pets could lock themselves

contact with detergents.
■ Keep children away from the open
appliance. There may still be rem-
nants of detergents inside. The water
inside is not potable drinking water.

child has been exposed to detergent
in their mouth.
Risk of poisoning!
Washing detergents and fabric-care
products can be harmful to health.
