These warnings have been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
Installation
●This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it.
●It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way.
●All packing and transit bolts must be removed before use. Serious damage can occur to the product and to property if this is not adhered to. See relevant section in instructions.
●Any plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent person.
●Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
●Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
●If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor, please adjust the feet in order to allow air to circulate freely.
●Always be sure, that there is no water leakage from hoses and their connections after the installation.
Child Safety
●This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.
●Pets and children have been known to climb into washing machines. Please check your drum before use.
●The glass door becomes very hot during the washing and drying cycle. Keep children away from the vicinity of the appliance whilst it is in operation.
●Keep all packaging well away from children.
●Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.
Use
●Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water supply after use.
●Do not overload the appliance. See relevant section in the instruction book.
●Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. If in doubt, consult the care label on the clothes.
●Before washing, ensure that all pockets are empty and buttons and zips are fastened. Avoid washing frayed or torn articles and treat stains such as paint, ink, rust, and grass before washing. Underwired bras must NOT be machine washed.
●Any objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws, stones or any other hard, sharp material can cause extensive damage and must not be placed into the machine.
●Garments which have been in contact with volatile petroleum products should not be machine washed. If volatile cleaning fluids are used, care should be taken to ensure that the fluid is removed from the garment before placing in the machine.
●Wash small items such as socks, laces, washable belts etc in a washing bag or pillow case as it is possible for such items to slip down between the tub and the inner drum.
●Only use the advised quantities of fabric softener. Damage to the fabric can ensue if you over-fill. Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations of quantities.
●As some duvets and eiderdowns should be washed in large commercial machines because of their bulk, please check with the manufacturer of the item before washing in a domestic machine.
●Never tumble dry items that have had contact with chemicals such as dry cleaning fluid.These are of a volatile nature and could cause an explosion.
Only tumble dry items which have been washed in water or require airing.
●Plastic detergent dispensers should not remain in the drum during the drying cycle, as the plastic used is not designed to withstand the heat. If you wish to wash-through-to-dry you should use the conventional detergent dispenser drawer.
●Leave the porthole door slightly ajar between washes to preserve the door seal.
●Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service Force Centre. Always insist on genuine Electrolux spare parts.

Your New Washer-Dryer
Your new washer-dryer fitted with the Electrolux “NEW JET SYSTEM”, meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.
Even small loads are washed “economically” because the amount of water used is regulated automatically according to the load and type of fabric.
●Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C before draining, with the 95°C programme. This reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.
●The special WOOL/HANDWASH programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
●The anti-unbalance device ensures that the washing machine remains stable when spinning.
●The two drying programmes will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.
Ecological hints
To save water and energy and help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these hints:
●Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the hardness of your water supply, the amount of laundry and the degree of soiling.
●Select an “economy” programme for lightly soiled laundry.
●A programme without prewash is sufficient for normally soiled laundry.
●The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded both for washing and drying cycles.
●With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.
●Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.
In the interest
of the environment
●Materials marked with the symbol 
are recyclable.
●Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.
●When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the power supply cable and make the door lock device unusable to prevent young children from being trapped inside.
●Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.
The symbol 
on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
How do we help to protect the environment? We use recycled paper!
Important
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.
If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, it is because it is not evenly distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something Not Working".
