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 over
60°C before draining prevents the temperature of
the water from deforming the plastic pipes of your
drainage system.
Ecological hints
In order to obtain water and energy savings and to
protect the environment, we advice you to follow these
instructions:
■
Always wash full loads for maximum savings.
Do not overload the appliance.
■
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.
Protection of the environment
■
Materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.
To enable them to be recycled, they must be
placed in the appropriate collection areas (or
containers). Check with your local authorities.

■
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door closing
device inoperative to avoid it becoming a death
trap for a child.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
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.
The following warnings are provided in the
interests of overall safety. You must read them
carefully before installing or using the appliance.
■
When unpacking the appliance, check that it is not
damaged. If in doubt, do not use it and contact the
Service Centre.
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.
Installation
■
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.

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.
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.
Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the
machine and release the two plastic bags by removing
the adhesive strip.
Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then the
left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards the centre of
the machine.
Set the machine upright and remove the two
remaining bolts from the back.
Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes into
which the bolts were fitted.
Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will find
at the back of the appliance.
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.
All transit bolts and packing must be
removed before using the appliance.
