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.

• 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.
