10_ safety information
Do not place any objects (such as shoes, food waste, animals) other than laundry into the
washer.
- This may result in damage to the washer, or injury and death in the case of pets due to
the abnormal vibrations.
Do not press the buttons using sharp objects such as pins, knifes, fingernails, etc.
- This may result in electric shock or injury.
Do not wash laundry contaminated by oils, creams or lotions usually found in skincare
shops or massage clinics.
- This may result in the rubber seal becoming deformed and water leakage.
Do not leave metal objects such as a safety pin or hair pin, or bleach in the tub for long
periods of time.
- This may cause the tub to rust.
- If rust starts appearing on the surface of the tub, apply a cleansing agent (neutral) to the
surface and use a sponge to clean it. Never use a metal brush.
Do not use dry cleaning detergent directly and do not wash, rinse, or spin laundry
contaminated by dry cleaning detergent.
- This may result in spontaneous combustion or ignition due to the heat of the oxidation of
the oil.
Do not use hot water from water cooling/heating devices.
- This may result in problems with the washer.
Do not use natural hand-washing soap for the washer.
- If it hardens and accumulates inside the washer, it may result in problems with the
product, discoloration, rust or bad odors.
Do not wash large laundry items such as bedding in the washing net.
- Failing to do so may result in injury due to abnormal vibrations.
- Place smaller items, such as lace socks and lingerie in the washing net.
Do not use hardened detergent.
- If it accumulates inside the washer, it may result in water leakage.
Do not wash throw rugs or doormats.
- If you wash throw rugs or doormats, the sand will accumulate inside the washer. It may
result in error such as no draining.
