1. THE NEW WASHING SYSTEM
This new washing machine is the outcome of years of research.
The leading-edge design and the quality of the production processes used to manu-
facture this product ensure it will give you many years of excellent service.
Its concept satisfies all current and future washing requirements.
Its low water, power and detergent consumption help protect the environment
and reduce running costs to a minimum.
Water and power consumption has been reduced in all programmes.
These results were achieved by means of a special washing system valid for all
programmes and all fabrics.
The drum is fitted with three external vanes that keep the water constantly circulating,
thereby offering intensive and uniform washing whilst consuming less water.
This ensures your laundry is washed and treated with utmost care.
The new washing system is so effective that normally dirty laundry can even be
cleaned without a pre-wash cycle.
Washing times have also been reduced.
Pre-washing is only recommended for very dirty laundry.
Please read the operating instructions with care in order to take full advantage of all
the features offered by this washing machine.
Warning!
Please read all the instructions contained in this manual in order to understand how
to operate this appliance correctly and safely.
This manual is divided into paragraphs which provide a step-by-step description of
all the functions of the appliance. The instructions are easy to understand and are
accompanied by detailed illustrations.
This manual provides a quick and easy reference for answering all your questions
concerning the use of your new washing machine.
Keep this manual near the machine for future consultation.
When selling or moving the appliance, make sure this manual remains with the
machine.

2. SAFETY WARNINGS
Attention!
These warnings are given for safety reasons.
Please read them carefully before installing and using the appliance.
This manual forms an integral part of the appliance and must therefore be kept intact together with the
machine. Before using the appliance, carefully read all the instructions contained in this manual. Instal-
lation must be performed by a qualified technician in compliance with the regulations in force. It has
been designed for domestic use and complies with EEC Directives 72/23, 89/336 (including 92/31 and
93/68) currently in force. The appliance is designed for the following purpose: washing linen or fabrics
declared by their manufacturers to be suitable for machine washing by means of an appropriate sym-
bol. Any other use shall be considered improper. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for
uses other than those described above.
The name plate featuring the technical data, serial number and markings is visibly positioned on the
inner edge of the door. This name plate must never be removed.
Do not leaving discarded packaging materials unsupervised within the home. Separate the various
packaging materials and take them to the nearest sorted waste collection centre.
The electrical and plumbing work require to install the appliance may only be performed by
qualified technicians.
The appliance must be provided with an earth connection in accordance with the electrical safety regu-
lations in force. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property
resulting from failure to earth the appliance or from a defective earth connection.
If the appliance is not connected to the electrical power supply by means of a plug, it is necessary to
install an isolation switch with a contact opening gap of at least 3 mm.
The plug on the power cord and the corresponding socket must be of the same type and must conform
to the regulations in force. Check that the voltage and frequency of the electrical power supply match
the ratings on the name plate. Avoid using adaptors or shunt connections. Never unplug the appliance
by pulling the power cord.
The machine is only disconnected from the electrical power supply if the plug has been re-
moved from the socket or if the general switch has been turned off. After installation, the plug
must remain accessible.
The appliance must always be connected to the water supply with new hoses (supplied with the appli-
ance). Old hoses must never be reused.
Make sure the appliance does not lie on the power cord.
Before use, make sure the tub assembly has been released (see instructions).
If the tub assembly has not been released, it may damage the appliance or adjacent furniture or appli-
ances during the spin cycle.
The washing machine must never be used in vehicles, on ships or planes, or in special environmental
conditions such as explosive or corrosive (powder, vapour and gas) atmospheres or near explosive
and/or corrosive liquids.
Do not install the washing machine in areas subject to frosting. Frozen pipes may burst under pres-
sure.
Make sure that the drain hose is securely attached to the basin and cannot move.
If it is not securely fitted, the repulsive force of the water may detach it from the basin and cause flood-
ing.
When attaching the hose to the basin, make sure the water drains away rapidly and does not fill
the basin up.
Do not overload the appliance.
Never use detergents containing solvents or chemicals.
These may damage the machine and form poisonous fumes.
They may also catch fire and explode.

26
Do not wash petrol-soaked garments in the washing machine. Make sure there are no inflammable
items (e.g.: lighters, matches, etc.) in pockets before washing.
If volatile fluids have been used to clean garments, make sure that the substances have been removed
before loading them in the washing machine.
Before loading garments for washing, make sure the pockets are empty, the buttons securely fixed and
the zips closed.
Do not wash frayed or torn garments.
The glass of the door will heat up considerably when washing at elevated temperatures.
Make sure all the water has drained away before you open the door.
If water is present, only open the door after draining it. If in doubt, read the instructions manual.
The water in the machine is not drinkable!
Swallowing washing machine detergents can cause lesions in your mouth and throat.
Before removing laundry from the washing machine, make sure the drum has stopped moving.
Always switch off the appliance after use to avoid wasting electricity.
Leave the door ajar between one wash and the next in order to keep the gasket in good condition.
Prolonged inactivity.
If the machine is left inactive for a long period: disconnect the machine from the electricity and water
supplies and leave the door ajar to prevent bad smells from forming.
In the event of a fault, never attempt to repair the machine yourself. Disconnect the appliance from
the electrical power supply and shut off the water tap. Then call a qualified technician. Repairs may
only be performed by qualified technicians.
Repairs performed by unqualified people may be hazardous for users.
Obsolete appliances must be rendered unusable: make sure that the door cannot be closed (to
prevent children from getting trapped inside while playing and risking their lives) and cut off
the power cord after unplugging it.
The appliance must then be taken to a sorted waste collection centre.
This appliance is intended for use by adults.
Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play with the washing machine.
Do not allow children to approach the appliance while it is working.
Keep children away from the appliance.
Small animals or children may get inside the washing machine.
Always check the inside of the drum before use and do not allow children to play with the appli-
ance.
Packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, metal profiles, etc.) must not be left within reach of
children.
Keep children away from the machine when the door or detergent tray is open; the appliance may con-
tain residues of detergent which can cause irreversible damage to the eyes, mouth and throat, as well
as possible death by suffocation.
Important !
This appliance is easy to use.
In order to obtain the best results, however, read this manual with care and follow all the instructions
before starting.
The manual gives instructions and useful advice on how to install, use and service the appliance cor-
rectly.
The manufacture declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property resulting
from failure to observe the above precautions, from tampering with even just a single com-
ponent of the appliance, or from the use of unoriginal spare parts.
