reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge
unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the was-
hing machine by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the washing machi-
ne.

supervised by a person responsible for their safety.
• Never place the machine on a carpet covered floor. Lack of airflow beneath the ma-
chine will cause electrical parts to overheat. This will result in problems with the ma-
chine.

rized Service Agent. There is the risk of an electric shock!

rely fastened and remain undamaged.
