TO AVOID
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Items of clothing that have been
pretreated with solvent-based
cleaning agents, e.g. stain
remover and dry cleaning
solvents, represent an explosion
hazard once loaded into the
washing machine. Therefore,
these items must first be rinsed
thoroughly by hand.
Loose debris in the washing ma-
chine drum can damage the
laundry. Before loading the laun-
dry, check that there is no debris
in the drum.
Open the door.
