drainage system, ensure the latter is equipped
with a vent to avoid simultaneous loading and
draining of water (siphoning effect).
6.Electrical connection
Electrical connections must be carried out by a
•
qualified technician in compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and the current
standard safety regulations.
The technical data (voltage, power and fuses) are
•
given on the rating plate on the rear of the
washing machine.
The washing machine must be connected
•
exclusively by means of a socket with an earth
connection in accordance with current
regulations. The washing machine must be
earthed by law. The manufacturer declines all
liability for damage to persons or property
deriving directly or indirectly from failure to
observe the directions.
Do not use extension leads or multi sockets.
•
Before any maintenance on the washing machine
•
disconnect it from the mains supply.
Access to the mains plug or to disconnection

by After-Sales Service.
The washing machine must be connected to an
•
effective earthing installation, in compliance with
the regulations in force. In particular, washing
machines installed in premises containing a
shower or a bath must be protected by a
differential residual current device of at least 30
mA. Earthing the washing machine is obligatory
under the law. The manufacturer declines all
liability for damage to persons or property
deriving either directly or indirectly from failure
to observe the directions above.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.Packing
The packaging materials are 100% recyclable
•
and bear the recycling symbol . Adhere to
local regulations when disposing of packaging
material.
2.Energy saving tips
Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent
•
and time by using the recommended maximum
load size.
Do not exceed the detergent dosages indicated
•
in the manufacturer’s instructions.
The Eco Ball - a special system in the outlet - will
•
prevent detergent loss from the drum to avoid
detergent loss into the environment.
Use “Prewash” for heavily soiled laundry only!
•
Save detergent, time, water and energy
consumption by not selecting “Prewash” for
slight to normally soiled laundry.
Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried
•
in stains in water before washing to reduce the
necessity of a hot wash program.
Save energy by using a 60°C instead of a 90°C
•
wash programme or a 40°C instead of a 60°C
wash programme.
Save energy and time by selecting a high spin
•
speed to reduce the water content in laundry
before using a tumble dryer (for machines with
adjustable spin speed).
3.Disposing of packaging and old washing
machines
The washing machine is built from reusable
•
materials. The washing machine must be
disposed of in compliance with current local
waste disposal regulations.
Before scrapping, cut of the power cable so that
•
the washing machine cannot be connected to the
mains.
Remove detergent from compartment if you
•
intend scrapping your washing machine.
4.Child safety
Children must not be allowed to play with or in
•
the washing machine.
5.General recommendations
Do not leave the washing machine connected
•
when not in use. Turn off the tap.
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance
•
switch off the washing machine and disconnect it
from the mains supply.
To clean the outside of the washing machine, use
•
a neutral detergent and a damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive detergents.
•
Do not attempt to force the lid open.
•
If necessary, the power cable may be replaced
•
with an identical one obtained from our AfterSales Service. The power cable must only be
replaced by a qualified technician.
