General safety

¥ In the event of a fault, do not attempt to repair the

appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause damage.

¥ If repairs are needed, contact an authorised

service centre and ask for genuine spare parts.

¥ This appliance is designed to be used by adults.

Children must not be allowed to touch the controls
or play with the product.

¥ During high temperature wash cycles the glass

door becomes very hot. Do not touch it.

¥ Pets sometimes climb into washing machines.

Check the drum before each use.

Installation

¥ All internal packing must be removed before using

the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to
the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective
transit devices are not removed or are not
completely removed. Refer to the relevant
paragraph in the instruction book.

¥ Any electrical work required to install this appliance

must be carried out by a qualified electrician.

¥ Any plumbing work required to install this

appliance must be carried out by a qualified
plumber.

Use

¥ This appliance is designed for domestic use. It

must not be used for purposes other than those for
which it was designed.

¥ Only wash fabrics which are designed to be

machine washed. Follow the instructions on each
garment label.

¥ Do not overload the appliance. Follow the

instructions in the instruction book.

¥ Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such

as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause
extensive damage.

¥ Do not machine wash garments saturated with

petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc.
If such fluids have been used to remove stains
prior to washing, wait until they have completely
evaporated from the fabric before placing garments
in the appliance.

¥ Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a

cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting
trapped between the drum and the tub.

¥ Use only the recommended quantities of fabric

softener. An excessive amount could damage the
laundry.

¥ Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the

appliance is not in use. This preserves the door
seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.

¥ Always check that water has emptied out before

opening the door. If not, drain the water following
the instructions in the instruction book.

¥ Always unplug the appliance and shut the water

tap after use.

The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully before
installing or using the appliance.

Tips for environmental protection

Child safety

¥ Children are often not aware of the dangers of

electrical appliances. When the machine is
working, children should be carefully supervised
and not allowed to play with the appliance.

¥ The packaging components (e.g. plastic film,

polystyrene) can be dangerous to children ­suffocation! Keep them out of childrenÕs reach.

¥ Keep all detergents in a safe place out of childrenÕs

reach.

¥ When the appliance is to be scrapped, pull the plug

out of the socket, cut off the electrical supply cable
and destroy the plug with the remaining cable.
Disable the door catch in order to prevent children
from becoming trapped inside while playing.

Packaging materials

The materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.

>PE< polyethylene

>PS< polystyrene

>PP< polypropylene

This means that they can be recycled by disposing of
them properly in appropriate collection containers.

Machine

Use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.
Help to keep your country tidy!

To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
tips:

¥ Normally soiled laundry may be washed without

prewashing in order to save detergent, water and
time (the environment is protected too!).

¥ The machine works more economically if it is fully

loaded.

¥ When small loads are washed, use only half to two

thirds of the recommended amount of detergent.

¥ With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited

soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be
washed at a lower temperature.

¥ Measure out detergent according to the water

hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of
laundry being washed.

Transit devices

All transit bolts and packing must be removed

before using the appliance.

You are advised to keep all transit devices so that
they can be refitted if the machine ever has to be
transported again.

1. Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the rear
right-hand bolt.

2. Lay the machine on its back, taking care not to
squash the hoses. This can be avoided by
placing one of the corner packing pieces between
the machine and the floor.

3. Remove the polystyrene block from the underside
of the machine.

4. Release the two plastic bags by removing the
adhesive strip.
Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then the
left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards the
centre of the machine.

5. Set the machine upright and remove the two
remaining bolts from the back.

6. Pull out the three plastic pegs from the holes into
which the bolts were fitted.

7. Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will
find on the back of the machine.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the
machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen
units.

Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or
out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar
materials under the machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor.

Water inlet

Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4"
thread after having inserted the small filter ÒAÓ
supplied with the machine.
The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the
machine can be turned in any direction. Simply
loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the
fitting, making sure there are no water leaks.

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too
short and you do not wish to move the tap, you will
have to purchase a new, longer hose specially
designed for this type of use.
