the closure of the lid is so impossible. An electromechanic safety
prohibits the opening of the lid when the washing machine works and
2 minutes after the end of the programme.
Washing motor : in case of mechanic overloading, overvoltage, a
thermic safety protects automatically the motor.
Heating : the heating can only begin whenthe water quantity necessary
for the washing is in the tub. This safety is useful when there is a water
break-up or if you forget to open the water inlet hose.
When disposing of the machine in a proper manner, destroy the door
locks and cut off the power supply cord.
Environmental information
All materials marked by the symbol are biodegradable. They can be

In order to realize water and energy savings and to act in an environmentally
conscious manner, we advice to follow the below instructions :
- use if possible the appliance with full loadsinstead of partial loads. Take
care to do not overload the drum.
- Use only the programmes with prewash for very soiled laundry.
- Savings on detergent and for the environment may also be achieved if
with medium to hard water you add sufficient detergent for soft water and
then add separately a softener. This relievesour waters of a certain
amount of chemicals.

INSTALLATION
BE CAREFUL : The parts protecting the inner components of the machine during transit must all be
removed before using your machine for the first time. In order to avoid possible damage to the appliance,
it is indispensable to take away the polystyrene basis, the two loosened spacers at the back of the appliance
and the polystyrene and plastic wedges (follow the instructions of the unpacking sheet). Close imperatively
the 2 holes left by the 2 spacers with the plugs provided with the appliance ; do not forget to put on the
central cover.
Installation
The floor must be clean and dry, free from floor polish
and other greasy substances, so that the machine does
not slide about. Do not use any grease as lubrification.
Installation on deep pile carpets and floor coverings with
foam backings is not recommended, as the stability of
the machine is no longer guaranteed. If the installation
must be done on a carpetedfloor, the openings located
at the lower part of the back of the appliance must remain
free. These openings ensure a good ventilation of your
applicance. In case of small format tiles, place a standard rubber mat under the machine.
With sprung floors, in particular wooden plank floors with
yielding floor boards, screw down a waterproof wooden
base at least 15 mm thick, across at least 2 floor boards.
Wherever possible, place the appliance in the corner of
the room - there wooden floors are most secure and
least liable to resonance vibrations.
Never compensate for small unevennesses in the floor
by placing wood, pasteboard or such like.
The front adjustable feet must be blocked after installation of the appliance by means of the locking nuts.
The water should drain freely and, consequently, the
drain hose should not be choked or placed in such a way
as to obstruct the normal water flow. If an extension
hose is required, remember that it might cause a
malfunction in the drain pump, particularly if the extension has a length in excess of 1 meter or if the diameter
of the extension is smaller than the diameter of the
original drain hose.
Electrical connection
Before fitting the plug into the wall socket, check the
following points :
1) The supply voltage of the domestic wiring system
does not fluctuate by more that 10%, plus or minus, from
230 V.
2) The meter, the fuses, the supply line and the wall
socket are suitable to carry the maximum load required
by the machine (2,3 kW).
Very important :
The washing machine is provided with a feeding
wire with earth connection: it must be connected to
a plug like that is provided with a good earth
connection.
Water connection
Connect the water inlet hose to
a cold water tap with a 3/4" gas
threaded orifice, after having
inserted the rugger sealing
washer into the hose collar. If
the water connection is made
onto new pipes or onto pipes
which have not been used for a
long time, it is advisable to run
off a certain amount of water before connecting the
machine.
Place the curved end of the outled hose into a drain pipe
having a height between 70 and 100 cm from floor level
or secure it to a sink or bath tub. Make sure that the drain
hose is firmly secured so that it will not slip out or fall
down from its position.
The replacing of the power cord must only be realized
by the After Sales Service.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility where
the previous recommendations are not followed.
Levelling
It is essential that your machine is absolutely level.
Raise or lower the front feet of the machine ; tighten the
nuts of the feet with an adjustable wrench.
Also make sure that the machine does not touch the
wall, the furnitures, etc. during the functioning in order to
avoid vibrations, noise or displacements of the appliance
during operation.
