A) SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before intervention on any internal components, always remove the power plug from the
socket.
When possible, the ohmic resistance of the components should be measured rather than
making direct measurements of voltage and current.
Some parts of the mechanical structure of the appliance could be dangerous; it is
necessary to take care in order to avoid injuries.
B) PURPOSE OF THIS MANUAL
This manual is to provide technicians, who have already a basic knowledge of repairing washing
machines, with general information concerning this new range of products.
For more detailed information refer to:
- electrical diagram
- programming
- spart parts list
C) PRESENTATION OF APPLIANCES
This new range of washing machines consists of:
- A CARBORANâ base including the filter body on which different components are fixed
(drain pump, circulation pump, inlet valve, module and suspension).
- A tub of CARBORANâ and a drum of stainless steel with a capacity of 42 liters.
- On the tub there are compensating weights, one left and one right, and electrical
components such as heating element, thermostat, motor and cables.
- A cabinet including four side panels:
• right, left and front panels electrogalvanized and thermolacquered;
• rear panel electrogalvanized
On this construction the tub is hanging up by four springs.
- A top of “polypropylene”, a housing lid on which the water inlet tray is fixed, a functional
support including the control panel with the electrical components and the water
distributor.
