Hotpoint-Ariston ARTXF 129 [9/48] Precautions and tips

Precautions and tips

! This washing machine was designed and

constructed in accordance with international safety

regulations. The following information is provided for

safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.

General safety

• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.

• The washing machine must only be used by adults,

in accordance with the instructions provided in this

manual.

• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with

wet or damp hands or feet.

• Do not pull on the power supply cable when

unplugging the appliance from the electricity

socket. Hold the plug and pull.

• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach

extremely high temperatures.

• Never force the porthole door. This could damage

the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent

accidental opening.

• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any

circumstances access the internal mechanisms in

an attempt to repair it yourself.

• Always keep children well away from the appliance

while it is operating.

• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

of two or three people and handle it with the utmost

care. Never try to do this alone, because the

appliance is very heavy.

• Before loading laundry into the washing machine,

make sure the drum is empty.

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.

• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that

old household electrical appliances must not be

disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste

stream. Old appliances must be collected

separately in order to optimise the recovery and

recycling of the materials they contain and reduce

the impact on human health and the environment.

The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the

product reminds you of your obligation, that when

you dispose of the appliance it must be separately

collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or

retailer for information concerning the correct

disposal of their old appliance.

Saving energy and respecting the

environment

Saving on detergent, water, energy and time

• To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine

should be used with a full load. A full load instead

of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on

energy.

• The pre-wash cycle is only necessary on

extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save on

detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15%

energy.

• Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving

them to soak before washing will cut down the

need to wash them at high temperatures. A

programme at 60°C instead of 90°C or one at

40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on

energy.

• Use the correct quantity of detergent depending

on the water hardness, how soiled the garments

are and the amount of laundry you have, to avoid

wastage and to protect the environment: despite

being biodegradable, detergents do contain

ingredients that alter the natural balance of the

environment. In addition, avoid using fabric

softener as much as possible.

• If you use your washing machine from late in the

afternoon until the early hours of the morning, you

will help reduce the electricity board's peak load.

The “Delay Timer” option helps to organise your

wash cycles accordingly.

• If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer,

select a high spin speed. Having the least water

possible in your laundry will save you time and

energy in the drying process.
