General safety
Repairs to the washing machine must only be carried out by qualified
service engineers.
Never use the washing machine if the mains cable is damaged; or if
the control panel, work top or plinth area is damaged such that the
inside of the appliance is freely accessible.
Switch off the washing machine before cleaning, maintenance and
servicing. In addition, pull the mains plug out of the socket or – in
the case of a permanent connection – switch off the cut-out in the
fuse box or remove the screw fuse completely.
If operation is stopped, disconnect the appliance from the mains sup-
ply and shut off the water tap.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable. Always pull the
plug.
Multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used.
This could constitute a fire hazard through overheating.
Never wash the washing machine down with a water jet. Danger of
electric shock!
In washing programmes with high temperatures the glass in the door
gets hot. Do not touch it.
Before emergency emptying of the appliance, before cleaning the
drain pump or opening the door in an emergency, let the water cool
down.
Small animals can nibble at the cables and water hoses. Danger of
electric shock and danger of water damage! Keep small animals away
from the washing machine.
