Blomberg WM 77110 NBL00 Owner's Manual page 7

• Do not operate this appliance if it is
damaged, malfunctioning, partially
disassembled, or has missing or
broken parts, including a damaged
cord or plug.
• Store laundry detergents and
additives in a cool, dry place out
of children's reach due to danger
of chemical poisoning and skin
irritation. Follow the manufacturers'
instructions when using laundry
products.
• Do not machine wash fiberglass
materials. Small particles can stick
to fabrics washed in following cycles
and may lead to skin irritation.
• Do not wash items stained with
vegetable oil, cooking oil or
petroleum. These items may contain
some flammable oils after laundering
and the fabric may smoke or catch
fire by itself.
• Be sure to unplug the power cable
before attempting maintenance
or cleaning of your appliance to
minimize the risk of electric shock.
Always unplug the cable by grasping
the plug, not the cord.
• Do not use wet hands when
plugging/unplugging the power cable.
• Check the water inlet and drain hose
connections regularly for any leakage.
Hoses should be replaced every 5
years.
• Do not leave the washer door open to
prevent children hurt themselves by
hanging on the door or going inside
the drum.
• Be careful when the appliance is
draining hot water. Danger of burning!
• At the end of a washing day, turn
off the water faucets to prevent any
leakage that may occur due to a
faulty condition of the appliance.
• Check the appliance and inlet hose
connections for water leakage after
each use. If there is leakage, turn off
the appliance and water faucets and
call service.
• Do not machine wash items having
large or heavy metal parts such as
buttons or buckles. These items
could severely damage the appliance.
• Always be sure to empty all foreign
materials from the pockets of your
clothing as small items such as coins,
pins etc could severely damage the
appliance.
• Do not install and operate the
appliance in places exposed to
temperatures below freezing. Frozen
water may cause severe damage by
bursting hoses and pump.
• Make sure that shipping bolts are
removed before you operate the
washer. If service is required as a
result of not removing the bolts, it will
not be covered by the warranty.
• Make sure that the wash drum is
empty before you load the washer.
• Do not store and use any flammable
and combustible substances such
as lint, paper and chemicals near the
appliance.
• Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions when you are using
a descaling agent. Be sure that
descaling agent contains rust-
protective materials and rinse the
washer a few times thoroughly
after the descaling process (See,
Descaling the washer).
• Install and operate the washer on
a solid floor to prevent vibration or
movement. It is not recommended
to install and operate the washer on
wooden floor or on a carpet.
• The rated voltage of your washer
is 208/240V, so it should not be
directly connected to the mains
of 110/120V. A special junction
box will be provided and used
for the mains connection (See,
Installation Instructions for Grounding
Instructions and Requirements).
• If an abnormal sound is heard during
the washer operation, refer to the
"Troubleshooting" of this guide.
• Call service for checking any possible
damage or fault if the appliance is
dropped or bumped.
• The end of drain hose should not
contact the discharge water in any
way as this might cause siphoning of
water.
• Always leave the property after
checking that the wash cycle is
completed and the washer is turned
