• After having installed the machine, check that it is

Use

• This appliance is designed for domestic use. It

machine washed. Follow the instructions on each

garment label.

extensive damage.

petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc.

If such fluids have been used to remove stains

prior to washing, wait until they have completely

evaporated from the fabric before placing garments

in the appliance.

softener. An excessive amount could damage the

laundry.
