In order to reduce the risk of electrical shocks or injury when using the appliance, the basic


READ all the instructions prior to using the appliance and KEEP THEM in an easily accessible
place for reference in the event of doubt.

Do NOT wash clothes which have been previously treated, washed, soaked or stained with
petrol, dry cleaning solvents, or other inflammable or explosive substances, as these give off

water run for a few minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
inflammable, do not smoke or use naked flames during this operation.
