Unpacking the machine

If the machine is damaged

If the machine has been damaged during transportation, you should immediately notify the company responsible for delivering it.

Check that the washing machine is undamaged. If you discover any damage, faults or that anything is missing, you should notify the seller immediately. Never leave packaging material in a place where children may play with it.

When lifting the machine

Take care when lifting the machine. Incorrect methods of lifting can cause physical injuries, and also increase the risk of damage to the machine. Open the door and take hold of it inside the top of the door opening. You can also grasp the rear overhang of the machine top to lift this machine. Never lift the machine by gripping its control panel, the door itself, or its detergent dispenser (Fig. 1).

Transit locking devices

When supplied the washing machine is packed using a number of locking devices/packing pieces to prevent drum and motor from damage in transit. These must all be removed before the washing machine is installed.

Spread some of the polystyrene packaging materials on the floor behind the machine and then lay the machine carefully rear-side-down on them. Make sure that no hoses are crushed in the process (Fig. 2).

Remove the polystyrene base the machine was transported on. Then return the machine to its normal upright position and undo the three screws on its rear (Fig. 3).

The three holes must then be plugged with the plastic plugs supplied with the machine in the plastic bag inside the drum (Fig. 4).

Identification of materials

All materials used in packaging this machine are environmentally-friendly. The various plastics used are identified and can be recycled:

PE stands for polyethylene, which is used for the bag around the machine and the bag in which these instructions were supplied.

PS stands for polystyrene (moulded), which is used for the sections of packaging needed to cushion the machine.

The cardboard components of the packaging are made from recyclable paper and should be taken to a collection point for recycling.

The machine contains plastic and rubber components. These have identifying marks to show what they are made from, so they can be recycled or disposed of properly at the end of the machine's life.

The materials are identified according to international standards.
