General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
– carpets or floor rugs
– underwire bras (damage to the appliance can result if metal reinforcements come
loose during the washing cycle)
- clothes that have any residues of flammable materials, as this may result in fire or
explosion. For example, articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or dabbed with industrial chemicals, or combustible or explosive substances (such
as wax, oil, paint, petrol, alcohol, degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.).
Items containing such substances must be washed by hand or rinsed thoroughly
before they may be machine-washed.
• Flammable, explosive or toxic substances must not be used as washing
detergents or for cleaning the machine.
• Capacity: Do not overload the washer; its maximum capacity is 8 kg (max. weight of
dry wash load).
• Water intake: Never refill the water by hand during washing.
• After use: After the program is finished, wait until the drum has stopped spinning and
the door lock icon is no longer lit before opening the door. If water is still visible, do not
attempt to open the door. Do not add or remove clothes while the drum is spinning.
• Disconnect the water and power supplies after use.
CAUTION: Hot!
• During a hot wash, the door window may become hot. Do not touch it, and ensure to
keep children and pets away from the machine during operation.
• Be careful of burning when the machine drains hot washing water.
Cleaning and maintenance
• Disconnect: Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance, always unplug the
appliance from the power supply.
• CAUTION! After each wash, clean the door and the door seals and remove any
threads, lint or foreign objects. Also check the detergent drawer and clean out
detergent residues. Regularly clean the power plug to remove dust and dirt and avoid
contact failure. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be carried out by children
without supervision. Do not spray the machine with water.
• CAUTION! Cleaning the inside of your washing machine regularly is particularly
important if you frequently use a cold wash cycle, especially if you also use a
fabric softener. Liquid detergents can cause detergent scum to build up around the
outside of the drum, which cold water will not remove and which can cause bacteria,
unpleasant odours, and eventually soiling of your wash load.
• Do not open the housing: The washing machine has no user-serviceable parts
contained within. Do not attempt to repair, dismantle or modify it.
• Service: Only have the appliance serviced by authorised service personnel. Service
or repairs carried out by inexperienced or unqualified persons may cause injury and/
or make more serious repairs to the appliance necessary.
