Cautions and advice
In order to get maximum satisfaction and performance from your washing machine,
please ensure you follow the instructions given below:
9Select the clothes load correctly and choose the appropriate
programme.
9Before opening the door, check that there is no water in the
machine and the pilot light is off.
9Put the washing products in the right proportion and in the right
compartment.
9Small garments, such as socks, belts, etc. are best put inside a
bag to avoid their being lost.
9Before putting clothes into the washing machine, make sure that
there is nothing in the pockets (coins, buttons, clips, etc.) and that
the zips are undone.
9If you machine has a filter, you should check regularly that
it is clean & not blocked. Be especially wary of coins,
brassiere wire & fluff/hair.
9The interior of the washing machine should be handled by
specialists only. NEVER attempt to repair or modify it
yourself.
9After each wash, leave the door ajar to prevent the rubber seal
from becoming misshapen or mouldy.
9When the clothes to be washed are heavily soiled or splattered
with mud, it is advisable to run a programme with pre-wash.
9Always put the machine on fully loaded. This will conserve energy.
9Do NOT use the dryer function if the clothes have been treated
with any non-aqueous solution.
9Do NOT use the dryer function for items containing any kind of
spongy rubber or similar elastomer materials.
9The dryer must be installed in a well-ventilated place, away from
the influence of gases from other appliances and from defective
installations.
9The lower ventilation, between the floor and the base of the
machine must not be obstructed (by carpet, cloths, etc.).
9When the machine has just been installed, or after a long time
without it being used, it is advisable to run a washing programme
with the machine empty, to eliminate any rusty water in the tubes.
