YOUR NEW WASHING MACHINE

This new washing machine meets all requirements for a modern washing of laundry with reduced consumption of water, energy and detergent.

■

The temperature selector dial allows you to choose personally the suitable washing temperature for your laundry.

■

The automatic cooling of the washing water from 95¡C to 60¡C before draining will prevent plastic pipes of your drainage system from being deformed.

Ecological hints

to protect the environment, we advice you to follow these instructions:

■

Whenever possible, wash the maximum load for the selected programme, without overloading the drum.

■

Use a programme with prewash only for heavy soiled items.

■

Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, degree of soiling and quantity of laundry being washed.

■

Select ÒQuick WashÓ for lightly soiled laundry.

Environment protection

■

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Installation

■

When unpacking the appliance, check that it is not damaged. If in doubt, do not use it and contact the Service Centre.

■

All internal packing must be removed before using the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective transit devices are not removed or are not completely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in the instruction book.

■

Any electrical work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified electrician.

■

Any plumbing work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified plumber.

■

After having installed the machine, check that it is not standing on its electrical supply cable.

■

If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor, ensure that air can circulate freely between the adjustable feet and the floor.

Use

■

This appliance is designed for domestic use. It must not be used for purposes other than those for which it was designed.

■

Do not overload the appliance. Follow the instructions in the instruction book.

■

Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. Follow the instructions on each garment label.

■

Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause extensive damage.

■

Do not machine wash garments saturated with 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.

■

Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting trapped between the drum and the tub.

■

Use only the recommended quantities of fabric softener. An excessive amount could damage the laundry.

■

Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the appliance is not in use. This preserves the door seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.

■

Always check that water has emptied out before opening the door. If not, drain the water following the instructions in the instruction book.

■

Always unplug the appliance and shut the water tap after use.

Service/repair

■

In the event of a fault, do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause damage.

■

If repairs are needed, contact an authorised service centre and ask for genuine spare parts.

Safety

■

This appliance is designed to be used by adults. Children must not be allowed to touch the controls or play with the product.

■

During high temperature wash cycles the glass door becomes very hot. Do not touch it.

■

Pets sometimes climb into washing machines. Check the drum before each use.

It is important that this instruction book be kept with the appliance for future reference. If you sell or give the appliance away, make sure that the book is passed to the new owners so that they can familiarise themselves with its operation and relevant warnings.

INSTALLATION

Unpacking

You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported again.

1. Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the rear right-hand bolt and lay the machine on its back, taking care not to squash the hoses. This can be avoided by placing one of the corner packing pieces between the machine and the floor.

2. Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the machine and release the two plastic bags by removing the adhesive strip.

3. Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then the left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards the centre of the machine.

4. Set the machine upright and remove the two remaining bolts from the back.

5. Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes into which the bolts were fitted.

6. Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will find at the back of the machine.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen units. Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
