■ 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
fl oorboards, place a stable wooden
plate measuring at least 60 × 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 0.05 Mpa and 1.0 Mpa (0.5
to 10.0 bar). For higher water pres-
sure, a pressure regulator needs to
be installed. Enquire about the water
pressure with the local waterworks.
Safety
■ Close the water inlet tap after every
use.
■ Close the water inlet tap before clean-
ing 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 try to open the loading door
with force whilst a cycle is in progress
or once a cycle has ended.
Improper fi lling of the appliance can
lead to damage.
■ Make sure that there are no foreign
