    							Safety Information
    Please read these points carefully before installing
    and using your appliance. Keep this user manual
    with your appliance.
    General safety
    • Do not modify or attempt to modify this appli-
    ance. This would put yourself in danger.
    • Ensure that all coins, safety pins, brooches,
    screws etc have been removed before starting
    a washing programme. If left in washing, they
    can seriously damage the appliance.
    • Use the recommended quantity of detergent.
    • Put small items together (socks, belts etc.) in a
    small linen bag or pillow case.
    • Unplug and close inlet hose tap after using ap-
    pliance.
    • Always disconnect the power supply from the
    appliance before cleaning or maintenance.
    • Do not machine wash clothes with ribbing, un-
    finished or torn material.
    Installation
    • Unpack or ask for the appliance to be unpacked
    immediately upon delivery. Check the outside of
    the appliance is not damaged in any way. Report
    all transit damage to your retailer.
    • Remove all transit bolts and packaging before
    installing the appliance.
    • Connection to the water supply must be carried
    out by a qualified plumber.
    • If your domestic electrical circuit needs adapting
    to allow the appliance to be plugged in, use a
    qualified electrician.
    • Ensure that, after installation, the power cable is
    not trapped under the appliance.
    • If the appliance is installed on carpeted floor,
    ensure that the carpet does not obstruct any
    ventilation ducts located at the base of the ap-
    pliance.
    • The appliance must be equipped with an earth-
    ed power plug which conforms to regulations.
    • Before connecting your appliance to the power
    supply, carefully read the instructions in the
    chapter entitled “Electrical connection”.
    • Replacing the power cable should only be car-
    ried out by an authorised service engineer.• The manufacturer cannot be held responsible
    for any damage resulting from incorrect installa-
    tion.
    Precautions to be taken against frost
    If your appliance is exposed to temperatures below
    0°C, the following precautions must be taken:
    • Close the tap and disconnect the inlet hose.
    • Place the end of this hose and the drain hose in
    a basin on the floor.
    • Select the Drain programme let it run until the
    end of the cycle.
    • Disconnect the appliance from the power supply
    by turning the programme selector to “Stop”
     .
    • Unplug the appliance.
    • Replace the inlet hose and drain hose.
    This way, the water remaining in the hoses will be
    drained away, avoiding any ice formation which
    would damage your appliance.
    Before turning your appliance on again, ensure
    that it is installed in an area where the temperature
    will not fall below freezing.
    Use
    • Your appliance is intended for normal domestic
    use. Do not use the appliance for commercial or
    industrial purposes or for any other purpose.

    • Do not put items into the washing machine
    which have had stains removed with petrol, al-
    cohol, trichlorethylen etc. If such stain removers
    have been used, wait until the product has
    evaporated before putting these items into the
    drum.
    • This appliance is not intended for use by per-
    sons (including children) with reduced physical,
    sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of expe-
    rience and knowledge, unless they have been
    given supervision or instruction concerning use

    safety.
    Children should be supervised to ensure that
    they do not play with the appliance.

    Detergents and Additives
    Only use detergents and additives designed for
    use in a washing machine. We do not recommend
    mixing different types of detergents. This may spoil
    the washing. There are no restrictions on the use
    of powder detergents. Liquid detergents must notbe used when a prewash has been selected. For
    cycles without prewash, they must be added via
    means of a dosing ball. Detergent tablets or doses
    must be placed in the detergent compartment of
    your appliances dispenser box.

    To install your washing machine at the same level
    as surrounding furniture, proceed as shown on
    picture 4.
    Water supply
    Install the supplied water inlet hose at the rear of
    your washing machine by proceeding as follows.
    Do not reuse an old hose. The water inlet hose can
    not be extended. If it is too short, please contact
    the after-sales service.
    1
     
    2
    Open the water inlet tap. Check there are no leaks.
    Drainage
    Fit the U-piece on the
    drainage hose. Place
    everything in a drainage
    point (or in a sink) at a
    height of between 70
    and 100 cm. Ensure it is
    positioned securely. Air
    must be able to enter
    the end of the hose, to
    avoid any risk of siphon-
    ing.
    The drain hose must never be stretched. If it is too
    short, contact an engineer.
    Electrical connection
    This washing machine must only be connected in
    single-phased 230 V. Check the fuse size: 13 A for
    230 V. The appliance must not be connected with
    an extension lead or multi-plug adaptor. Ensure
    that the plug is earthed and that it is in accordance
    with current regulations.
    Positioning
    Position the appliance on a flat and hard surface in
    a ventilated location. Ensure the appliance does
    not come into contact with the wall or other furni-
    ture. Accurate levelling avoids vibrations, noise
    and prevents the appliance from moving when
    running.

    Protecting the environment
    To save water and energy and therefore help
    protect the environment, we recommend the
    following:
    • Whenever possible, use the appliance at full ca-
    pacity and avoid partial loads.
    • Only use the prewash and soak programmes for
    heavily soiled items.
    • Use an appropriate amount of detergent for the
    hardness of the water, the size of the load and
    how soiled the washing is.
