BEFORE EACH WASHING
• The ambient temperature of the appliance should be 5-40°C. If used below 0°C, the inlet valve and draining system
may be damaged. If the appliance is installed under freezing conditions, it should be transferred to an environment with
a normal ambient temperature to ensure the water supply hose and water discharge hose can unfreeze before use.
• Before each washing, sort your laundry by reading the care labels and the detergent use instructions. Use non-foaming
or less-foaming detergents suitable for machine washing.
Check the care label
Tie any ribbons or belts and close
buttons and zippers
WARNING!
• Do not wash clothes that have been cleaned, washed, soaked in or dabbed with combustible or explosive substances
such as wax, oil, paint, gasoline, alcohol, kerosene or other flammable materials.
• Washing single items may easily create major eccentricity and cause vibrations and noise due to unbalance. Therefore it
is suggested to add one or two more laundry items to the wash, so that spinning can be done smoothly.
