Thank you for choosing an Indesit product.  This washer
is reliable and easy to use.
We suggest you read your owner's manual carefully.
This will help you become familiar with your washer
and its functions in order to obtain  years of trouble
free performance.

Controlled consumption

The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water used
in the wash to the size of the load, giving optimum use of
water, energy and detergent.

Double-action wash

Clothes are soaked in water and detergent, water then
“rains” steadily through the clothes.

Safety, a good habit to get into

CAUTION
Please read the instructions in this handbook carefully,
as they contain important information about safe
installation, operating and servicing.
This washer is manufactured in compliance with
international safety regulations designed to safeguard
the consumer.

1. This appliance is designed to be used indoors and under
no circumstances should it be installed outside.
2.  This appliance should only be used in a domestic
environment by a responsible person to wash household
laundry according to the instructions.
3. Under no circumstances should children be allowed to
operate or tamper with this product.
4. Beware, this appliance is heavy, do not attempt to move
it, unless you are able to do so.
5.  Before the introduction of a new wash load into the
machine, please ensure all previous items have been
removed.
6. For electrical safety do not attempt to operate this machine
with wet  hands or feet.
7. Do not operate this appliance connected to an extension
lead. If a longer supply cable is required this must be replaced
with one of the same specifications in compliance with the
current electrical regulations. This operation should be carried
out by a qualified person.
8. After putting in the detergent, ensure the soap drawer is
fully closed before operating the appliance. Only automatic
detergent should be used, or too many suds will be produced
and damage may occur to internal parts.

9. Do not pull the supply cable to disconnect the plug from
the wall socket.
10. Beware that during the wash cycle the door glass can
become hot. Children should not be left unsupervised whilst
the appliance is in operation. During operation the door is
locked at all times. On each stop position the door will release
after an approximate 3 minute time delay. Do not attempt
to open the door before this time otherwise damage may
occur to the door release mechanism.

Saves while it washes

The double action wash penetrates so deeply that at just
60°C you obtain the same results you would normally obtain
at 90°C with a traditional washer.
