If the appliance is not connected to the electrical power supply by means of a plug, it is necessary to
install an isolation switch with a contact opening gap of at least 3 mm.
The plug on the power cord and the corresponding socket must be of the same type and must conform
to the regulations in force. Check that the voltage and frequency of the electrical power supply match
the ratings on the name plate. Avoid using adaptors or shunt connections. Never unplug the appliance
by pulling the power cord.
The machine is only disconnected from the electrical power supply if the plug has been
removed from the socket or if the general switch has been turned off. After installation, the
plug must remain accessible.
The appliance must always be connected to the water supply with new hoses (supplied with the
appliance). Old hoses must never be reused.
Make sure the appliance does not lie on the power cord.
Before use, make sure the tub assembly has been released (see instructions).
If the tub assembly has not been released, it may damage the appliance or adjacent furniture or
appliances during the spin cycle.
The washer dryer must never be used in vehicles, on ships or planes, or in special environmental
conditions such as explosive or corrosive (powder, vapour and gas) atmospheres or near explosive
and/or corrosive liquids.
Do not install the washer dryer in areas subject to frosting. Frozen pipes may burst under pressure.
Make sure that the drain hose is
securely attached to the basin and cannot move.
If it is not securely fitted, the repulsive force of the water may detach it from the basin and cause

the basin up.
Do not overload the appliance.
