Technical safety
Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally
visible damage. Do not install or use a damaged washing machine.
Before connecting the washing machine, ensure that the connection
data on the data plate (voltage and current) match the electricity
supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this washing machine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system which complies with current local and national safety
regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system.
Do not connect the washing machine to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Unauthorized repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which manufacturer
cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by an approved service technician.
Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been
carried out.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.
THIS WASHING MACHINE MUST BE EARTHED.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instru-
ction concerning used of the appliance in a safe way and understand the
hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning
and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless continuously
supervised.

To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the washing
machine, do not install it in place where it is damp and where
it suffers from rainfall.
Do not install the washing machine in place where it suffers
from the sun directly, in which plastic or components will be
damaged. It will be shortened the life of your washing machine.
Do not install the washing machine in place where temperatures
below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The
reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at
temperatures below freezing point.
Do not shoot the washing machine with water when you clean it.
Keep the washing machine away from fire or heat sources.
Before using the washing machine for the first time, check that the transit bolts
at the rear of the machine have been removed. During spinning, transit bolts which is still in place
may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is
no floor drain (gully) in the immediate vicinity.
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do not find their way
into the machine with the laundry. These may damage components of the machine (e.g. drum),
which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
Do not wash water-repellent things(e.g. raincoats) with washing machine.
Only remove laundry from the washing machine once the drum has stopped turning. Reaching
into a moving drum is extremely dangerous and could result in injury.
For washing machines having ventilation openings in the base, the washing mechines can not be
working on the carpet.
Correct use
Safety with children
Keep children away from the washing machine at all times. To avoid
the risk of injury do not allow children to play on or near it or to
play with its controls. Supervise children whilst you are using it.
Older children may only use the washing machine if its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
For machines with a 'porthole' door, remember that the porthole glass
will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do not let children
touch it.

The drawing of machine in the manual is only used for instruction.
It may be vary from the model you buy.

Remove all the transit bolts at the back of the machine with tools.
Keep the transit bolts for future transportation. Whenever the
machine is transported, the transit bolts must be refitted.
Plug the holes with the transit bolts caps .supplied
Strong vibration, noise or failures may occur
if the transit bolts are not removed.
It is normal that water drops appear on the packing
plastic bag and the door glass, which are resulted
from the water left in the tub for checking out.
Remove all the packing ( including the foam base)
or the vibration and noise may occur.
Dispose all the wrappage safely and keep them out
of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!
“U” piece

A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface
for a washing machine, being far less prone to vibration
during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted
surface.
The machine must be level and securely positioned. The
distance between the machine and wall must be more than
10 cm.
To avoid vibrations during spinning, the machine should not
be installed on soft floor coverings.
The machine must stand perfectly level on all
four feet to ensure safe and proper operation.
Incorrect installation may increase electricity
and water consumption and may cause the
machine to move about.
To do these when the machine is not level:
Using the spanner turn locknut in a clockwise
direction. Then turn locknuts together with adjust
feet to unscrew.
Use a spirit level to check the machine is standing level.
Hold adjust feet securely with a pipe wrench. Turn locknut again
using the spanner until it sits firmly up against the housing.
Vibration and noise may occur if the locknuts do
not sit firmly up against the houses.
Drain hose connection
1. Direct into a sink
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove any blanking plug
that may be in place.
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a clip if required,
ensure a loop is formed in the drain hose to prevent waste from the sink
entering the washing machine.
If required, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 4 m.
