Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow
these tips:
●
Normally soiled laundry may be washed
without prewashing in order to save
detergent, water and time (the environment
is protected too!).
●
The machine works more economically if it is
fully loaded.
●
With adequate pre-treatment, stains and
limited soiling can be removed; the laundry
can then be washed at a lower temperature.
●
Measure out detergent according to the
water hardness, the degree of soiling and
the quantity of laundry being washed.
Fitting under a counter
WARNING!
Before any work to the appliance, you must
disconnect the plug from the power socket.
Important!
For safety reasons, it is dangerous to fit the
appliance under a counter without the steel
plate, which you can order in your nearest
Service Force Centre.
Please note that it is only necessary to remove
the top of the appliance if the counter is not
high enough to accommodate it.
If the counter is too low and it becomes
necessary to remove the top lid of the washer-
dryer, a steel plate, known as a height
reduction kit, must be used.
The top must be fixed to the cabinet as follows:
Unscrew the screws from the back panel of the
appliance. Push the worktop to the back and
raise it to remove (see the picture above).
