Precautions and advice

￿The washing 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 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 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 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.

•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 washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.

Disposal

•Disposing of the packaging material:

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

•Disposing of an old washing machine:

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

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 washing 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

•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 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 washing machine from late in the afternoon until the early hours of the morning, you will help reduce the electricity board's peak load. The Delay Timer option (see page 7) 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.
