Important for the safe use of your washing machine
Your safety and that of
Your washer has been built in compliance with your family the strictest international safety regulations. To
protect you and all your family.
Read these instructions and all the information in this manual carefully: they are an important source, not only of numerous useful tips, but also of vital information on safety, use and maintenance.
1.the machine should not be installed in an outdoor environment, not even when a roof shelters the area, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.
2.It must only be used by adults and exclusively for washing clothes following the instructions provided in this manual.
3.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.
4.Before loading the washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.
5.Never touch the washing machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.
6.Never use extensions or multiple plugs, which are particularly dangerous in humid environments. The power supply cable must never be bent or dangerously compressed.
I only want an authorised specialised technician with original Indesit spare parts!
7.Never open the detergent dispenser while the appliance is functioning; do not use hand wash detergent because the abundance of foam could damage its internal parts.
8.Never pull on the supply cable or the washing machine to disconnect it from the wall socket: it is extremely dangerous.
9.While the appliance is functioning, do not touch the drain water as it could
reach very high
temperatures. The appliance door, during wash cycles, tends to become hot; ensure that children do no touch it. Never force the washing machine door because this could damage the safety lock which prevents accidental opening when the nachine is working. Allow a few minutes at the end of the program for the lock to release.
10.In case of malfunctioning, first close the water tap and unplug the appliance from the wall socket; do
not under any
circumstances touch internal parts in order to attempt repairs.
How to change the power supply cable
(For this operation we suggest you contact a qualified engineer)
The washing machine power supply cable is special and can be purchased exclusively from authorised Technical Service Centres.
To replace the cable:
1.Make sure that the machine is switched off and unplugged.
2.Remove the covering lid by unscrewingthetwoscrewsI,and then pull it towards you [fig. 3].
3.Disconnect the wires from the radio interference suppressor F [fig. 4] noting as to their position (Blue=N wire; Brown=L wire) leaving the earth wire until last 
.
N.B.: letters L, N and the
symbol 
are indicated on the radio interference suppressor.
4.Remove the upper part of the cable slightly from the back panel of the appliance, pull the power supply cable upwards and take it out [fig. 5].
To connect the new power supply cable, reverse the pro- cedure.
To put the covering lid back on, rest it on the washing machine [fig. 6] and let it slide forwards until the hooks situated on the front slide into the special slots formed into the control panel and tighten the screws back on.
