IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~Take care when handling processing chemicals (detergents, softeners, neutralizers, etc.). These may contain irritant or corrosive ingredients. Do not use organic solvents as these could cause an explosion. Wear protective gloves and goggles. With all chemical agents the manufacturer’s safety conditions must be observed.

~Do not stand, sit or lean on the opened machine door. This could cause the machine to tip over, resulting in injuries and damage.

~Do not touch the heating elements during or directly after the end of a program, burns could result. The elements remain hot for some time after the end of the program.

~The water in the machine must not be used as drinking water.

~Be careful when sorting items with sharp, pointed ends. Carefully position these items in the machine, so that you will not hurt yourself or create a danger for other operators.

~When using this machine regard the high temperatures and be especially careful not to scald or burn yourself. When opening the door bypassing the electrical lock, a danger of burning, scalding or corrosion exists or when using disinfection agents, the inhalation of toxic fumes. Let baskets and inserts cool. Empty any water from parts into the wash cabinet.

~If you are exposed to toxic vapors or processing chemicals, consult the manufacturer's material safety data sheets for emergency procedures.

~Always allow mobile units, modules, inserts, and loads to cool before removing. Be sure to empty any water from concave items into the wash cabinet before removing.

~After drying open the door to allow the items and inserts to cool.

~Never clean the machine or near its vicinity with a water or high pressure hose.

~Avoid inhaling powder products. They can cause burning in the mouth and throat if swallowed, and can inhibit breathing.

~Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging the unit or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker.

~Whenever work is conducted on the tap water network, the water supply line to the washer must be cleared of air.
