•SAFETY ADVICE
Important :
This machine is only for domestic use and is designed to
wash, rinse and spin machine-washable textiles.
Y
ou must observe the following instructions. We refuse to accept
any liability and the guarantee if you do not observe these
recommendations since this could result in damage to equipment
or physical injury.
— The machine must only be used in accordance with its normal method
of operation in order to avoid damaging your washing and your machine.
Only use washing and maintenance products certified for use in domestic
washing machines.
— If you pre-treat your washing with stain removers, solvents or, in general,
any inflammable or potentially highly explosive product, do not insert
them into the machine immediately.
Furthermore, you are also recommended not to use solvents or products
in aerosol cans near to your washing machine or any electrical appliance
in general in a poorly ventilated room (risk of fire and explosion).
— If any incidents occur and you cannot resolve them using the remedies
we recommend (see the section “INCIDENTS THAT MAY ARISE”), call
in a qualified professional.
— If you have to open your machine during a cycle (for example, to add
or remove washing), depending on the stage the programme is at (during
washing essentially), be careful of the temperature inside the machine,
which may be very high (risk of severe burns).
— When making a new installation, the machine must be connected to
the water supply with a new hose: the old hose must not be re-used.
— Do not let children play with the machine and keep your pets away
from it.
— You must immediately make any obsolete machine unusable.
Disconnect and cut off the power cable flush with the machine. Close
the water tap and remove the hose. Disable the door lock.
— If there is a risk of frost, disconnect the water hose and drain off any
water that may remain in the drain hose by placing this as low as possible
in a bowl.
•SAVING ENERGY
— Only programme a prewash when it is absolutely necessary: for
example, for very dirty sports or working clothes, etc.
— A low temperature programme is sufficient for impeccable washing
results when your washing is only slightly or moderately dirty.
— For washing that is only slightly dirty, select a short washing cycle
(“Rapid”, “Express” or “Flash”, depending on the model).
— Use the right amount of washing products for the hardness of the
water, the amount of washing and how dirty it is and follow the instructions
on the detergent packs.
