Precautions and advice
!
The washing machine was designed and built in complian-
ce with the applicable international safety regulations. The
following information is provided for your safety and should
consequently be read carefully.
General safety
• This appliance has been designed for non-
professional, household use and its functions must
not be changed.
• This appliance can be used by children aged
from 8 years and above and persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
or lack of experience and knowledge if they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use 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.
• This washing machine should only be used by
adults and in accordance with the instructions
provided in this manual.
• Never touch the washing machine when barefoot
or with wet or damp hands or feet.
• Do not pull on the power supply cable to unplug
the appliance from the electricity socket. Pull the
plug out yourself.
• Do not touch the drain water as it could reach
very high temperatures.
• Never force the washing machine door: this could
damage the safety lock mechanism designed to
prevent any accidental openings.
• In the event of a malfunction, do not under any
circumstances touch internal parts in order to
attempt repairs.
• Always keep children well away from the
appliance while in operation.
• Should it have to be moved, proceed with the
help 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 your laundry into the washing
machine, make sure the drum is empty.
Disposal
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 may take their old appliance to public
waste collection areas, other communal collection areas,
or if national legislation allows return it to a retailer when
purchasing a similar new product. All major household ap-
pliance manufacturers are active in the creation of systems
to manage the collection and disposal of old appliances.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Environmentally-friendly technology
If you only see a little water through your appliance door, this
is because thanks to the latest technology, your washing ma-
chine only needs less than half the amount of water to get the
best results: an objective reached to respect 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 envi-
ronment: 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 after-
noon 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.
