User’s instructions

Do not put articles in your washing machine if you have used a solvent, alcohol, trichloroethylene, etc., to remove stains from them. If you must use these stain removers, wait until the product has evaporated before putting the articles in the drum.

Collect all small articles such as socks, belts, etc., in a small cloth bag or pillow case.

Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning it and doing any maintenance.

1.2. Precautions against frost

If your washing machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, take

the following precautions :

Close the tap and disconnect the water supply pipe.

Put the end of this pipe and the drain pipe into a bowl on the floor.

Select the «Drain» programme and make sure it works until it is complete.

Switch the washing machine off by putting the program selector to the «Off»* position or pressing on the «On/Off»* key.

Unplug the washing machine.

Screw in the water inlet pipe and install the drain pipe.

1.4. Protection of the environment

We recommend that the following instructions should be followed to achieve savings in water and energy and therefore to contribute to protection of the environment:

If possible, use the washing machine at full capacity rather than with partial loads (however, do not overload the drum).

Only use the Prewash or Soak function for very dirty washing.
