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

bolts to avoid any possible damage to the interior during transport. Before using the machine, it is imperative that the transport bolts are removed
