BEFORE USING THE WASHING MACHINE
Water tap: 3/4” threaded hose
1.Removing the packaging and inspection
After unpacking, make sure that the washing
machine is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the washing machine. Contact After-Sales Service or your local retailer.
Check that the accessories and supplied parts are
all present. Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags,
polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous.
If the appliance was exposed to the cold before
delivery, keep it at room temperature for a few hours before operating.
2.Remove the transport bolts
The washing machine is fitted with transport
bolts to avoid any possible damage to the interior during transport. Before using the washing machine, it is imperative that the transport bolts are removed.
After their removal, cover the openings with the
4 enclosed plastic caps.
3.Install the washing machine
You are advised not to install the appliance in a
room where the temperature could drop to below 0°C.
Given the weight of the appliance, attention must
be paid to safety standards when it is being moved. When positioning the appliance, make sure that
the power cable is not kinked or compressed and that it can be easily accessed if required.
Remove the protective film from the control
panel (if available on your model). Move the appliance without carrying it by the
worktop. Install the appliance on a solid and level floor
surface, preferably in a corner of the room. Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting
on the floor and then check that the washing machine is perfectly level (use a spirit level).
In case of wooden or so-called “floating floors”
(for instance certain parquet or laminate floors), place the appliance on a 60 x 60 cm sheet of plywood at least 3 cm in thickness which is secured to the floor.
If the washing machine is installed on a carpeted
floor, leave sufficient space between the appliance and the floor to guarantee the free circulation of air.
4.Water supply
Connect the water supply inlet hose in
accordance with the regulations of your local water company. Water supply: Cold water only (unless
otherwise indicated on the programme chart)
Water pressure
(flow pressure): 100-1000 kPa (1-10 bar). Use only new hoses to connect the washing
machine to the water supply. Used hoses must not be used and should be discarded,
connector”
5.Drain
Connect the drain hose to the siphon or hook it
over the edge of a sink by means of the “U” bend supplied.
If the washing machine is connected to an
integrated drainage system, ensure the latter is equipped with a vent to avoid simultaneous loading and draining of water (siphoning effect).
6.Electrical connections
Electrical connections must be carried out by a
qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and current standard safety regulations.
Voltage, power consumption and electrical
protection data are supplied on the inside of the appliance door.
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 possible damage to property or injury to persons or pets deriving from failure to observe the a/m directions.
Do not use extension leads or multi sockets.
Before any maintenance on the washing machine
disconnect it from the mains supply. After installation, access to the mains plug or to
disconnection from mains supply must be ensured at all times via a double-pole switch.
Do not operate the washing machine if it has
been damaged during transport. Inform the After-Sales Service.
Mains cable replacement is only to be carried out
by After-Sales Service. Use the appliance only for domestic washing and
for its intended applications.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
1.Packing
The packaging material is entirely recyclable, and
marked with the recycling symbol . Adhere to local regulations when disposing of packaging material.
2.Disposing of packaging and scrapping old washing machines
The appliance is built from reusable materials. It
must be disposed of in compliance with current local waste disposal regulations.
Before scrapping, remove all detergent residues
and cut off the power cable so that the washing machine is made unusable. This appliance is marked according to European
Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). By ensuring that this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health.
The symbol on the product, or on the documents accompanying the product, indicates that this appliance 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. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal. For more detailed information about treatment, recovery and recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
3.Safety Instructions
The washing machine can only be used indoors.
Do not store flammable fluids near the appliance.
If you want to place a dryer on top of your
washing machine, first contact our After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer to verify if this is possible. Placing a dryer on your washing machine is only admitted by using an appropriate stacking kit available through our After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer. Do not leave the appliance plugged in when not
in use. Turn off the tap when not in use.
Before any cleaning and maintenance switch off
the machine or disconnect it from the mains. Never open the door forcibly or use it as a step.
Children must not be allowed to play with the
washing machine or to climb into the drum. 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.
Lighters must not be left in pockets.
For washer/dryer models
Do NOT dry items that have been washed or
treated with chemical stain removers, cooking oil, petroleum, acetone, alcohol, petrol, paraffin, white spirit, wax. Remove these substances by means of a hot wash with abundant detergent before drying.
Do NOT dry items made from foam rubber,
latex, raincoats, waterproof fabrics, rubber airbeds, printed objects, clothes or pillows filled with foam rubber. These materials could melt and damage other items in the wash or damage the appliance.
4.Advice on saving energy
To achieve the best use of energy, water,
detergent and time use the recommended maximum load size. Do not exceed the recommended dosages on
the detergent packet. The Eco Flap - a special system in the outlet -
prevents detergent loss from the drum to avoid detergent loss into the environment. Use the “Pre-wash” programme for heavily
soiled laundry only. Use a programme with no “Pre-wash” cycle for slightly or normally soiled items; You save on water, energy and time as a result.
Before using the washing machine, treat laundry
with a stain remover or soak dry stained items in water so as to avoid having to use high temperature wash programmes. Save energy by using a 60° C instead of a 95° 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 drying programme (for machines with adjustable spin speed).
5.EC Declaration of Conformity
The appliance conforms to the following
European Standards: 73/23/EEC Low voltage directive
89/336/EEC EMC Directive 93/68/EC CE Marking Directive .
