• ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Danger :
To make the electrical connection to your appliance :
— Do not use an extension, an adapter, a multiple socket or a programmable timer.
— The plug must be easily accessible but be out of children’s reach.
— If there's any doubt about the condition of your installation, contact your installer or a qualified
Brandt-approved professional.
— Never eliminate the electrical Earthing system.
The electrical installation must comply with the prevailing standards and the Electricity Board’s
regulations in the country concerned, particularly regarding Earthing and installation in shower
rooms.
We cannot be held responsible for any incident caused by poor electrical installation.
Advice :
In order to easily find your appliance’s reference numbers in the future, we recommend
that you note them down on the “After-Sales Service and Consumer Relations” page (this page
also explains where to find these on your appliance).
Your appliance complies with European Directives 2006/95/EEC (Low Voltage Directive) and
2004/108/EEC (Electromagnetic Compatibility).
• REPLACING THE ELECTRIC POWER CABLE
Important :
To ensure your safety, this must be carried out by the manufacturer's after-sales service
team or a qualified professional.
• BEFORE USING THE STEAM PROGRAM FOR THE FIRST TIME
Important :
The Steam tank is empty when your appliance is delivered. Before using the Steam pro-
gram for the first time, fill the tank with demineralised water or with water from the recovery tank
(see how to proceed in the "EVERYDAY MAINTENANCE" chapter).
The steam tank is empty when your appliance is delivered.
• BUILT-IN INSTALLATION
• COMBINED WASHER/DRYER INSTALLATION
Important :
If you are fitting the appliance underneath a worktop, you must keep the original laminated
top. For safety reasons, the appliance must never be operated without a top.
An adaptation kit is available from your dealer. This is used to mount your tumble dryer above your
washing machine.
Important :
Check with your dealer that the kit is compatible with your washing machine. For safety rea-
sons, fitting must be performed by a qualified professional.
