INSTALLING THE WASHING MACHINE

CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Make sure that the voltage indicated on the identi cation plate attached

to the inside of the  lter door corresponds to that of the mains supply

( g. 12).

All cut-outs, electric wiring and mains sockets must have a rating such that enables them to

support the maximum load indicated on the identi cation plate.

Once the appliance has been installed, it must be connected to the mains supply through

a single-pole switch.

The mains supply to which the appliance is connected must be  tted with an earthing

system. If this is not the case, the manufacturer will not be held liable for any incidents that

may occur ( g. 13).

If the mains socket to which the appliance is connected is faulty or unsuitable, it must be

replaced by a quali ed electrician.

The washing machine must not be connected to the mains supply using indirect methods

such as extension leads or multiple adapters.

During maintenance work, the washing machine must be disconnected from the mains

electricity supply.

Do not insert or remove the plug from the mains socket with wet hands.

If the power supply cable is damaged in any way, contact the appropriate specialised

service centre.

The plug used to connect the machine to the power supply must never be  xed behind the

machine, but must be in a position easily accessible in an emergency.

USING THE WASHING MACHINE

INFORMATION BEFORE USE

Warning: Before carrying out the  rst wash, allow the washing machine to

e ect a short wash cycle without any washing. This will allow the operation of

the washing machine to be checked and will clean the drum.

Before each wash make sure that:

• the water connections are correct, the drain hose is properly positioned (see

connecting to the water supply) and that the water supply valve is open.

• with dry hands, insert the plug in the mains socket.

• sort the wash into types of fabric (refer to clothing care symbols).

• check that there are no objects left in any of the pockets of the items to wash, as

these may damage the washing, the appliance or the  lter.

USE OF DETERGENT

The washing machine is  tted with a three-compartment detergent drawer

1 compartment for pre-wash or soak soap powder (1)

2 compartment for normal wash soap powder (2)
