Warning and Safety instructions
11
If the appliance is hard wired, an on-site dual circuit breaker must
be accessible at all times in order to disconnect the washing
machine from the mains supply. The means of disconnection must
be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring
rules.
Reliable and safe operation of this washing machine is only
ensured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
Correct use
The maximum load is 8.0 kg (dry laundry). See the “Programme
chart” for the maximum recommended loads for individual
programmes.
Do not install your washing machine in a room where there is a
risk of frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split, and the reliability of the
electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below
freezing point.
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the transit
bars at the rear of the washing machine have been removed (see
“Installation and connection – Removing the transit bars”). During
spinning, transit bars which are still in place can cause damage to
both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time
(e.g. while on holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the
immediate vicinity.
If the ventilation openings are in the base of the washing
machine, ensure that they are not obstructed by deep-pile carpet or
similar.
