 SAFETY 

INFORMATION

Important!

 Read carefully & keep for future

reference.

• The safety of Your appliance complies

with the industry standards and with legal
requirements on the safety of appliances.
However, as manufacturers, we feel it is
our duty to provide the following safety
notes.

• It is most important that this instruction

book should be retained with the appli-
ance for future reference. Should the ap-
pliance be sold or transferred to another
owner, or should you move house and
leave the appliance, always ensure that
the book is supplied with the appliance in
order that the new owner can get to
know the functioning of the appliance
and the relevant warnings.

• You MUST read them carefully before in-

stalling or using the appliance.

• Before first starting up, check the appli-

ance for any damage incurred during
transport. Never connect up a damaged
appliance . If parts are damaged, contact
your supplier.

• If the appliance is delivered in the winter

months when there are minus tempera-
tures. Store it at room temperature for 24
hours before using for the first time.

General safety

• It is dangerous to alter the specifications

or attempt to modify this product in any
way.

• During high temperature wash pro-

grammes the door glass may get hot. Do
not touch it!

• Make sure that small pets and children

do not climb into the drum. To avoid this,
please check into the drum before using.

• Any objects such as coins, safety pins,

nails, screws, stones or any other hard,
sharp material can cause extensive dam-
age and must not be placed into the ma-
chine.

• Only use the advised quantities of fabric

softener and detergent. Damage to the
fabric can ensue if you over-fill. Refer to
the manufacturer’s recommendations of
quantities.

• Wash small items such as socks, laces,

washable belts etc in a washing bag or pil-
low case as it is possible for such items
to slip down between the tub and the in-
ner drum.

• Do not use your washing machine to

wash articles with whalebones, material
without hems or torn material.

• Always unplug the appliance and turn off

the water supply after use, cleaning and
maintenance.

• Under no circumstances should you at-

tempt to repair the machine yourself. Re-
pairs carried out by inexperienced people
may cause injury or serious malfunction-
ing. Contact your local Service Centre. Al-
ways insist on genuine spare parts.

Installation

• This appliance is heavy. Care should be

taken when moving it.
