Safety information
Installation and service
● All packaging and transit locking devices must be
removed before the machine is first used. If they
are not, the result may be damage to the machine
or other property. See the section
Transit locking
devices
.
● All installation and service work done on the product
must be carried out by a qualified technician in accordance with these instructions. Work performed by
persons with inadequate knowledge may adversely
affect the satisfactory functioning of the product and
may cause personal injury or damage. Before any
work is carried out on the machine, it must be isolated
from the electrical supply, by unplugging the power
cord or removing the fuse.
● The machine is heavy, so take care when lifting it.
Never lift the machine by gripping it’s control panel,
door, or detergent dispenser.
● Avoid installing the machine in a room where there is
no waste gully (floor drain) set into the floor.
● The power cord must be plugged into an earthed
socket, which need to be easily accessible.
Permanent installation must only be carried out by
an authorized electrician.
● If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or it’s service agent.
● Make sure that the power cord is not nipped or other-
wise damaged and that the hoses do not get crushed
or kinked when moving the machine in connection
with installation or cleaning etc.
● When the machine location is on carpet floors, attention
must be paid so as to ensure that there is no obstruction
to the bottom vents.
● Servicing and possible repairs must be carried out by
a service company authorised by the supplier. Use
only spare parts supplied by these. Never try to repair
the machine yourself.
Child Safety
● The machine should be used by adults only. Do not
let children play with the controls or other parts of it.
● Remember that the plastic bags included in the
packaging can be fatal playthings for small children.
● Before loading the machine, check that there are no
foreign objects or pets inside the drum.
● When the machine is operating, the door glass will
get hot, so it should not be touched. Keep children
away from the machine when it is operating.
During Use
● This machine is intended only for normal domestic
washing and only in accordance with these instructions. If it is used for other purposes, there is a risk
that this may cause personal injury or damage to
property.
● Only machine-washable items should be washed in
the machine. If in doubt, contact the manufacturer or
retailer of the item.
● Follow the recommendations of the care label and make
sure that pockets are empty and zips and buttons are
done up before washing.
● Objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws and
other hard objects can cause serious damage to the
machine. Make sure that all pockets have been emptied
before putting garments into the machine.
● Remove stains such as rust, dye, ink and grass before
machine-washing.
● Avoid washing clothes which are frayed or exces-
sively worn.
● Wash small items such as thin socks, garment ties/
laces, lace items etc. in a special laundry net to prevent
them from getting between the inner and outer drums.
● Items which have been treated with chemicals such
as stain removal products, liquid domestic cleaning
products and similar must be rinsed thoroughly by
hand before they can be washed in the machine.
● Underwired bras, if washed in the machine at all,
should be washed in a laundry net.
● Only use detergents specially designed for washing
machine.
● Always follow the recommendations of the manu-
facturers of detergent and fabric conditioner concerning the quantities of these products to use. Using
too much can damage your laundry items.
● Do not overload the drum. Overloading impairs the
machine's performance and can damage laundry items.
● Before opening the door always check that the water
has been pumped out of the machine.
● Do not leave the premises while the machine is operating.
● After using the machine, turn off it’s water supply and
disconnect it from the power supply. When removing
the electrical plug, grip the plug, not the lead.
● Leave the door ajar when the machine is not in use,
to prevent any stale odour.
● Make sure that the machine is disconnected from the
power supply during cleaning and maintenance work.

- the packing material:
Never leave packaging material in a place
where children may play with it.
All materials used in packaging this machine are environmentally-friendly. The various plastics used are identified
and can be recycled:
● PE stands for polyethylene, which is used for the
bag around the machine and the bag in which
these instructions were supplied.
● PS stands for polystyrene (in this case moulded
polystyrene), which is used for the sections of
packaging needed to cushion the machine in
transit.
The cardboard components of the packaging are made
from recyclable paper and should be taken to a collection
point for recycling. The machine contains plastic and
rubber components. These have identifying marks to
show what they are made from, so they can be recycled
or disposed of properly at the end of the machine's life.
The materials are identified according to international
standards.
- the old appliance:
At the end of the appliance's useful life, disconnect the
electrical plug from the power supply, then cut the electrical lead at the point where it enters the appliance. Make
quite sure that children will not be able to play with it.
- energy saving tips:
To save water, energy and help protect the environment,
we recommend that you follow these hints:
● The washing machine is especially economical when
you fully utilise the stated filling quantities.
● Adjust the quantity of washing detergent according to
the hardness of the water, the amount of laundry and
the degree of soiling.
● A programme without pre-wash is sufficient for normally
soiled laundry.
● For small amounts of washing, use only half to two
thirds the recommended amount of washing detergent.
● Suitable pretreatment enables stains and small amounts
of dirt to be removed. You can then wash at a lower
temperature.
Disposal
Your new washing machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption.
● The programme selector combines the function of
programme and temperature selection, making it
easier to set the programme.
● Programme progress display shows current phase
of the selected programme.
● The automatic cooling of the washing water from
90°C to 60°C before draining will reduce thermal
shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.
● The special wool programme with it’s new delicate
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
● The unbalance detection system discover and
prevents vibrations caused by incorrect distribution
of the laundry during the spin cycle.
● The ECO valve makes the full use of detergent
possible and saves energy by lower water consumption.
