SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please, do not use the washing machine without reading and understanding these instructions or use first.
Be sure to remove transport brackets prior first use of the appliance. Attempted operation of the blocked machine may result in irreparable damage which is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty!
When connecting your washing machine to water supply, be sure to use the supplied water inlet hose and sealing gaskets.
Failure to observe the instructions for use or inappropriate use of the washing machine may result in damage to the laundry or machine, or injury to the user.
Keep the instructions for use handy, near the washing machine.
Do not install the machine in a room where temperature can drop below 0°C. Parts of the machine may be damaged if the water inside them freezes.
Install the washing machine in a perfectly horizontal position, on solid flat (concrete) floor.
Follow the instructions for correct installation and water and mains connections (see chapter "Installation and connections").
Never immerse the end of the drain hose into the draining water.
Prior starting the washing cycle lock the door by pressing them at the designed spot.
354011
Door may not be open during the washing cycle.
We recommend running the self-cleaning program before the first wash in order to remove any impurities from the washing machine drum. (See chapter on” Selecting additional functions”.
Use only detergents and softeners for machine wash. Manufacturer may not assume responsibility for any damage and eventual discolouring of gaskets and plastic components as a consequence of incorrect use of bleach and/or colouring agents.
For removal of lime residues use such agents with added anti-corrosion agents.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Finish the lime removal by multiple rinsing to remove completely eventual acid residues (e.g. vinegar etc.).
Never use detergents containing solvents, since there is a danger of creating toxic gasses which may damage the machine and result in ignition or explosion.
This product does not release silver ions during the washing cycle.
Upon completion of the washing cycle, close the water faucet and unplug the mains cord.
Before transporting the machine after it has been used, block the drum by inserting at least one transport blocking rod.
Disconnect the appliance from the mains power before inserting the rod!

Leave any repairs and similar tasks on the washing machine to an expert.
Unprofessional repair may result in an accident or major malfunction.
The warranty shall not apply to consumables (bulbs), minor discoloration or deviations of colour, increased noise level as a consequence of appliance age, which does not affect appliance functionality, and aesthetical deficiencies which do not affect appliance functionality or safety.
The appliance is intended exclusively for use in households. If the appliance is used for professional purposes, for profit, or for purposes beyond regular use in a household, or if appliance is used by a
person who is not a consumer, the warranty period equals the shortest warranty period possible as stipulated by the relevant legislation.
THE APPLIANCE IS MANUFACTURED IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL RELEVANT SAFETY STANDARDS.
THIS APPLIANCE CAN BE USED BY CHILDREN AGED FROM 8 YEARS AND ABOVE AND PERSONS

SELECTING THE ROOM
The appliance should be placed on a surface with concrete base; the surface should be dry and clean in order to prevent slipping. The adjustable feet should also be cleaned before installation.
INSTALLATION
Use a water scale and spanner No. 22 (for feet) and 17 (for the nut).
1 Put the appliance in horizontal
position by turning the adjustable legs. The legs are
adjustable up to +/- 1 cm.
2 After the adjustment
tighten the nuts firmly - towards the bottom of the machine!
Vibrations, moving of the appliance and loud operation due to incorrect setting of the adjustable feet shall not be covered by this warranty.
354011
11
If you have a tumble dryer of the same dimensions, you can place it on top of the washing machine by using the vacuum feet or side by side.

Before connecting the appliance, let it warm up to room temperature (wait at least two hours).

WATER INLET CONNECTION
Insert the gasket with a filter net into the straight inlet hose attachment nut and screw the nut onto the water tap (with some models, the gasket with filter net is already fitted and any additional fitting into the nut on the straight attachment is not required).

REGULAR
ATTACHMENT
To ensure correct operation of the appliance, water pressure inlet must be between 0,05 and 0,8 MPa. Minimum water pressure can be established by measuring the quantity of poured out water. 3 litres of water must be poured out from completely opened tap in 15 seconds.
If your model has connections for both hot and cold water, then connect one hose to the cold water supply (blue wing nut or blue mark on the hose) and the other one to the hot water supply (red wing nut or red mark on the hose), as indicated on the back wall of the appliance (letters C and H) (C - cold; H – hot).
Hot water (a mixture of hot and cold water) is added only on the programs of 60° or more.
354011
13
If your washing machine features both cold and hot water attachments, but you only wish to connect it to the cold water supply, please remove the hot water inlet hose from the back of the appliance. Then, use the supplied cover to close the hot water inlet. (picture 1)
If your washing machine allows connecting both hot and cold water with total Aqua-Stop (option B), but you only wish to connect it to the cold water supply, then seal the hot water tube with a suitable 3/4" plug which is not attached to the machine.
The inlet hose should be tightened manually, firmly enough to prevent any leaks. After tightening the hose, check for any leaks. Use of pliers, wrenches, or other similar tools is not allowed when installing the hose, as these tools can damage the nut thread.
AQUA - STOP
(CERTAIN MODELS ONLY)
In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine.
In such cases display (A) turns red. Inlet pipe must be replaced. |
A |
|
POPOLNI AQUA - STOP
(CERTAIN MODELS ONLY)
In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine. Protection system will also detect whether there is any water leakage in the washing machine interior. In such cases, washing is suspended, water supply is cut off, and machine switches on the pump and signals an error.
Do not immerse the Aqua-stop system inlet pipe into the water, because it contains the electric valve!
354011
14
WATER OUTLET CONNECTION
Fix the drain hose to run into the sink or the bathtub, or connect it directly to the wall drain outlet (diameter min. 4 cm). The end of outlet hose should be placed between minimum 60 cm and maximum 100 cm above the floor level. It can be attached in three ways (A, B, C).
