Take care when handling
processing chemicals (detergents,

Do not use organic solvents as these
could cause an explosion. Wear
protective gloves and goggles. With all
chemical agents the manufacturer's
safety conditions must be observed.

Do not stand, sit or lean on the
opened machine door. This could
cause the machine to tip over, resulting
in injuries and damage.
~
Do not touch the heating elements
during or directly after the end of a
program, burns could result. The
elements remain hot for some time after
the end of the program.
~
The water in the machine must not
be used as drinking water.

Be careful when sorting items with
sharp, pointed ends. Carefully position
these items in the machine, so that you
will not hurt yourself or create a danger
for other operators.
