Warnings

P1131

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

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.

• After having installed the machine, check that it is not standing on its electrical supply cable.

• If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor, ensure that air can circulate freely between the feet and the floor.

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.

General safety

• Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious danger. Contact your local Service Centre.

• Never pull the power supply cable to remove the plug from the socket; always take hold of the plug itself.

• During high temperature wash programmes the door glass may get hot. Do not touch it!

Child safety

• Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances can be. When the machine is working, children should be carefully supervised and not be allowed to play with the appliance.

• The packaging components (e.g. plastic film, polystyrene) can be dangerous to children danger of suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.

• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.

• This machine incorporates a special child safety feature to prevent small children from being trapped inside the machine. To activate this device, rotate the button (without pressing it) inside the door clockwise until the groove is horizontal. If necessary use a coin. To disable this device and restore the possibility of closing the door, rotate the button anti-clockwise until the groove is vertical.

• When the appliance is to be scrapped, 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.

Tips for environmental protection

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

• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded. Do not overload!

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!

• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.

• Choose the option QUICK for slightly soiled laundry.

• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.

Installation

Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be removed before using the appliance.

You are advised to keep all the packaging for re-use in case the machine is to be transported again.

Using a spanner unscrew and remove the two rear bottom screws. Slide out the two plastic pins.

Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure that the hoses are not squashed.

Remove the polystyrene block from the bottom of the machine and release the two plastic bags. Very carefully slide out the left polythene bag, removing it towards the right and then downwards

Fill all the holes with the plastic plugs supplied with the instruction booklet.

Positioning and levelling

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

Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag, removing it towards the left and then upwards.

Remove the polystyrene base. Set the machine upright and unscrew the remaining rear screw. Slide out the relevant pin.

Connect the water inlet hose to a separate tap with a 3/4" thread.

Do not use already employed hoses for water connection.

The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device, which protects against damage caused by water leaks in the hose which could develop due to natural ageing of the hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in the window “A”. Should this occur, turn the water tap off and refer to your Service Centre to replace the hose.

The other end of the inlet hose which connects to

P0022

P0021

P1118

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.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the machine. In this

case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying. This could be done by tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to the wall.

Any extension applied to the drainage hose should not be longer than 200 cm and its diameter must not be smaller than that of the original hose. Use a suitable fitting for the connection.

The drain hose must not be kinked.

For a correct functioning of the machine the drain hose must remain hooked on the proper support piece situated on the top part of the back side of the appliance.

Electrical connection

This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply.

Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use.

Connect the machine to an earthed socket.

ENGLISH

In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be

above the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm above the ground.

Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not less than 60 cm and not more than 90 cm. The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain hose.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution. Should the appliance power supply cable need to be replaced, this must be carried out by our Service Centre.

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed the power supply cable is easily accessible.
