WARNINGS
It is important that this instruction book be kept
with the appliance for future reference. If you sell
or give the appliance away, make sure that the
book is passed to the new owners so that they
can familiarise themselves with its operation and
relevant warnings.
The following warnings are provided in the inter-
ests of overall safety. You must read them careful-
ly before installing or using the appliance.
■
When unpacking the appliance, check that it is not
damaged. If in doubt, do not use it and contact the
Service Centre.
INSTALLATION
■
All internal packing must be removed before using
the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to
the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective
transit devices are not removed or are not com-
pletely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in
the instruction book.
■
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
■
Any plumbing work required to install this appli-
ance must be carried out by a qualified plumber.
■
After having installed the machine, check that it is
not standing on its electrical supply cable.
■
If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor,
ensure that air can circulate freely between the
adjustable feet and the floor.
USE
■
This appliance is designed for domestic use. It
must not be used for purposes other than those for
which it was designed.
■
Do not overload the appliance. Follow the instruc-
tions in the instruction book.
■
Only wash and dry fabrics which are designed to
be machine washed and tumble dried. Follow the
instructions on each garment label.
■
Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such
as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause
extensive damage.
■
Do not machine wash garments saturated with
petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc.
If such fluids have been used to remove stains
prior to washing, wait until they have completely
evaporated from the fabric before placing garments
in the appliance.
■
Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a
cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting
trapped between the drum and the tub.
■
If you use a liquid detergent with a dispenser which
has to be placed directly in the drum, remember to
remove this dispenser before tumble drying.
■
Use only the recommended quantities of fabric soften-
er. An excessive amount could damage the laundry.
■
Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the
appliance is not in use. This preserves the door
seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.
■
Always check that water has emptied out before
opening the door. If not, drain the water following
the instructions in the instruction book.
■
Always unplug the appliance and shut the water
tap after use.

enced persons may cause damage.

If repairs are needed, contact an authorised ser-
vice centre and ask for genuine spare parts.
