IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious
injury or death to persons when using your
washing machine, follow basic precautions,
including the following.
1. BOSCH washers are provided with a manual,
including Operating Instructions, User
Maintenance Instructions and Installation
Instructions. Read all instructions before using
the washing machine.
2. Do not wash articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted
with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, other
flammable, or explosive substances as they
give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or
other flammable, or explosive substances to
the wash water. These substances give off
vapors that could ignite or explode.
4. Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not
been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system
has not been used for such a period, before
using a washing machine, turn on all hot water
faucets and let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
5. Do not allow children to play on or in the
appliance. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the appliance is used near
children.
6. Before the appliance is removed from service
or discarded, remove the door and the power
cord/plug.
7. Do not reach into the appliance if the wash
drum is moving.
8. Do not install or store this appliance where it will
be exposed to the weather.
9. Do not tamper with the controls.
10. Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance or attempt any service unless
specifically recommended in the
userĆmaintenance instructions or in published
user repair instructions that you understand
and have the skills to carry out.
11. Always be sure to unplug the washing machine
from the eletrical supply before attempting any
service. Disconnect the power cord by
grasping the plug, not the cord.
12. To reduce the risk of fire, clothes, cleaning
rags, mop heads and the like which have traces
of any flammable substance, such as vegetable
oil, cooking oil, petroleum based oils or
distillates, waxes, fats, etc., must not be placed
in the washing machine. These items may
contain some flammable substance(s) after
laundering, which may smoke or catch fire by
itself.
13. Do not use bleach. Hazardous fumes can form.
14. Do not machine wash fiberglass materials
(many curtains and window coverings use
fiberglass materials). Small particals can remain
in the washing machine and stick to fabrics in
subsequent wash loads causing skin irritation.
15. Do not leave children unsupervised near the
washing machine.
16. Keep pets away from the washing machine.
17. Do not insert/pull out the mains plug with wet
hands.
18. Do not pull out the mains plug by tugging the
cable.
19. Do not touch the loading door if washing at
high temperatures.
20. Caution when draining hot water.
