Correct use
~
The maximum load capacity is 8 kg (dry laundry). See the
"Programme chart" for the specific load capacities of individual
programmes.
~
Do not install your washing machine in rooms where temperatures
below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The
reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at
temperatures below freezing point.
~
Before using the washing machine for the first time, check that
the transit bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see
section on "Installation"). During spinning, a transit bar which is still
in place may result in 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. holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the imme-
diate vicinity.
~
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a wash basin, check that the water can
drain off quickly enough to prevent the sink from overflowing. Make
sure the drain hose is secure, so that the force of the water flowing
out of the hose does not dislodge it.
~
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,
paper clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds
container, drum), which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
~
The new hose sets supplied with the appliance are to be used.
Old hose sets should not be re-used.
