User's instructions
Put all small items such as socks, belts, etc., together inside a small cloth bag or pillow case, so that they cannot get trapped between the drum and the tank.
Leave the cover and the drum open when you are not using your washing machine, to air the tank and prevent the formation of mould and bad smells.
Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning and servicing it.
Use only detergents designed for the washing machine. Follow the recommendations made by the manufacturer of these products.
If the washing machine is installed in a location subject to frost, completely drain the washing machine and unscrew the tap supply pipe and put it down on the floor.
Elements forming part of the packaging (for example plastic films, pieces of polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. Keep these packaging elements out of reach of children.
Make sure that pets cannot get into the drum of your washing machine.
Never use the washing machine if the power supply cable, the control panel, the working surface or the base are damaged so that the inside of the washing machine is accessible.
Safety devices
Cover: your washing machine is equipped with a safety device preventing the washing machine cover from closing when the drum doors are open.
It is impossible to start it until the doors are closed. An electromechanical safety device prevents you from opening the cover while the washing machine is operating, and for about 2 minutes after the end of the programme.
Washing motor: a temperature safety device protects the motor against risks of mechanical overload, or overvoltage or undervoltage.
Heating: heating will not start until the water quantity necessary for washing has been added into the tank. This safety device is effective mainly when the water supply is cut off or if you forget to open the water supply tap.
