Precautions and advice

!The machine was designed and built in compliance with the applicable international safety regulations. The following information is provided for your safety and should consequently be read carefully.

General safety

●This machine should only be used by adults and in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.

●Do not overload the machine. In addition to reducing the quality of the wash, this may also damage your laundry and the machine.

●Never touch the 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.

●Do not open the machine door while the appliance is in operation.

●Do not open the detergent dispenser while the appliance is in operation.

●Do not touch the drain water as it could reach very high temperatures.

●Never force the machine door: this could damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent any accidental opening.

●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. Do not let children play with the machine or tamper with the controls.

●The appliance door tends to get quite hot during the wash cycle.

●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 machine, make sure the drum is empty.

●In the unlikely event of something not working - see the Troubleshooting section.

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 Ariston technology, your machine 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

GB

●To avoid wasting resources, the 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 environment: 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 machine between late in the afternoon and the early hours of the morning, you will help reduce the electricity board’s peak load.

Disposal

●Disposing of the packaging material:

observe local regulations, so the packaging can be re-used.

●Disposing of an old machine:

before scrapping your appliance, cut the power supply cable and remove the appliance door.

Disposal of old appliances

The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), 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 should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
