Cold water washing
• If you always use COLD water, we recommend that a WARM or HOT wash be used at a regular
intervals e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a WARM one.
When you have finished
• Turn off taps to prevent the chance of flooding should a hose burst.
• Always unplug the power cord after use.
