Precautions to be taken against
frost
If your appliance is exposed to tempera-
tures below 0°C, the following precau-
tions 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 program
selector to “Stop”.
• Unplug the appliance.
• Screw the inlet hose back on and
replace the drain hose.
This way, the water remaining in the ho-
ses 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 whe-
re the temperature will not fall below
freezing.
