Safety of children
• Packaging materials (e.g. sheet and Styrofoam) can be dangerous for
children. Danger of asphyxiation! Keep packaging materials at a safe
distance from children.
• Children are often unable to recognise the dangers involved with
electrical appliances. Provide for proper supervision during operation,
and do not allow children to play with the washing machine – the
danger exists that a child might lock itself into the appliance.
• Make certain that children or small animals do not climb into the
drum of the washing machine.
• If the washing machine needs to be disposed of, remove the mains
plug, destroy the door lock, cut off the electrical cable and dispose of
the plug and remaining cable separately. In this way children are pre-
vented from locking themselves in and are not exposed life threaten-
ing danger.
General safety

personnel. Improper repairs can lead to extreme danger. If repairs are
required, contact our customer service department or your author-
ised dealer.
• Never place the washing machine into operation if the power cable is
damaged or the control panel, the countertop or the base are dam-
aged to such an extent that the inside of the machine is accessible.
• Switch off the washing machine before cleaning, maintenance and
servicing. In addition, pull out the mains plug or – in the case of per-
manent connection – pull the circuit breaker, or completely remove
screw type fuses.
• Never remove the mains plug by pulling on the cable. Always grip the
plug.
• Octopus plugs, couplings and extension cables may not be used. Dan-
ger of overheating!
• Do not clean the washing machine with a jet stream of water. Danger

the fill-in door becomes hot. Do not touch!
• Allow the wash-water to cool before emergency draining of the
appliance, cleaning of the circulation pump or emergency opening of
the door.
