Safety instructions for use
Safety instuctions for the installation
Install or store the appliance where it will not be exp osed to sub-zero temperatures or exposed to the weather. Fit the power plug
to a grounded wall socke t that complies with all statutor y regulations and ordinances. Ensure that the base opening is free from
obstruction by carpeting if the washing machine is installed on a c arpeted fl oor. In countries where t here is a risk of cock roach
infestation or other vermin, pay particular attention to keep the appliance and its surro undings in a clean conditio n at all times.
Any damage which may be caused by c ockroaches or other vermin is not covered by the applianc e guarantee.
CAUTION about p ositioning the appliance
Install the was hing machine on a fl at hard fl oor. Make sure that air circul ation around the washing machi ne is
not impeded by car pets, rug etc.
•
Never try to correc t any unevenness in the fl oor using pieces of wood, cardboard or simila r materials under the washing machine.
•
If it is not possib le to position the washing machine away from a gas cooker or coal burning stove, an insul ation panel
(85x60 cm) covered with aluminum foil on the side facing the coo ker or stove, must be inserted between the t wo appliances.
•
The washing machine must not be inst alled in rooms where the temperature may drop below 0°C.
•
Please ensure that when the washing machine is installed , that a Service Technician can gain easy access in the event of a
breakdown.
•
Adjust all four feet using the transit bolt spanner provided to ensure that the appliance is stable, with 20mm clearnace between
the top of the washing machine and under side of the worktop.
CAUTION about t he power cord
We recommend conn ecting most appliances to a dedicated circuit which is protected by a mains fuse. That is, a single outlet
supplying po wer only to the appliance con cerned, without any additional out lets or branch circuits. Check the specifi cations
of this owner‘s manual. Do not overload w all sockets. Overl oaded wall sockets , loose or damaged wall socket s or extension
cords, frayed powe r cords, damaged or cracked w ire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric
shock or fi re. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it,
discontinue use of the applian ce, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement par t by an authorized servicer. Protect
the power co rd from physical or me chanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, squashed in a jam b of a door, or
walked upon. Pay particula r attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point w here the cord exits the appliance.
CAUTION about l ocation and moving
This equipment is not designed for mar itime use or for use mobile installations such as caravans, air craft etc. Turn off the
stopcock if the machine is to be left for any length of time (e.g. if you are going on holiday) , especially if there is no fl oor drain
(gully) in the immediate vicinity. If relocating the applia nce use the original packing material. Packaging material (e.g. plastic fi lm,
Styrofoam ) can be dangerous for children. The re is a risk of suffocation ! Keep all packaging well away from children and do not
allow children to play inside the bowl as th ey may become trapped.
CAUTION about t he fl oor surf ace
• T he installation surface must be clean, dry a nd level.
• In stall washing machine on a fl at hard fl oor. Poorly constructed timbe r base fl oors can contribute to excessive noise and
vibration.
• Pr oper placement and levelling of the washing machine ensure long, regular and relia ble operation.
• T he washing machine must be perfectly level and fi rmly in position.

Safety instructions for use
To minimize the risk of fi re with in the inner bowl, the followin g should be observed:
• Items t hat have been spotted or soaked with vegetab le or cooking oil constitute a fi re hazard and should not b e
placed in a tumble dryer.
Oil-affected items ca n ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat s ources Such as in a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, caus ing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat . If the heat cannot
escape, the items can bec ome hot enough to catch fi re. Piling, stack ing or storing oil-affected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so creat e a fi re hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabric s that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been c ontaminated by hair care prod-
ucts be placed in a tumble dr yer they should fi rst be washed in h ot water with extra detergent-this will reduce,
but not eliminate, the hazard. Th e ‘cool down’ cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce t he temperature
of the items. They should not be rem oved from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot.
• Items t hat have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spot ted with petrol/gasoline, dr y-cleaning
solvents or other fl ammable or explosive s ubstances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Highly fl ammable substances commonl y used in domestic environments include acetone, denatu red alcohol,
petrol/gas oline, kerosene, spot removers (some brands ), turpentine, waxes and wax removers.
• Items c ontaining foam rubber (also known as lat ex foam) or similarly testured rubber like materials sh ould not be
dried in a tumble dryer on a heat se tting.
Foam rubber materials ca n, when heated, produce fi re by spo ntaneous combustion.
• Fabr ic softeners or similar products should not be us ed during a drying cycle, to eliminate the effects of st atic
electricity unles s this practice is specifi cally recommended by the manufac turer of the fabric softener or product.
• Unde rgarments that contain metal reinforcement s should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Damage to the tumble dryer ca n result if metal reinforcements come loose during dr ying.
When available a drying rack c ould be used for such items.
• Plastic articles su ch as shower caps or babies waterproof napkin cove rs should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
• Rubb er-backed art icles, clothes fi tted w ith foam rubber pads, pillows, rubber boots an d rubber-coated tennis
shoes should not be placed in a tumbl e dryer.
