1. WARNINGS
Keep this user’s manual with your washing machine. If you sell your
washing machine or give it away, make sure that it is accompanied by
its user’s manual. The new user can then be informed of how the
washing machine operates and read relevant warnings.
These warnings have been written for your safety and for the sa-
fety of others. Please read these comments carefully before instal-
ling and using your washing machine. Thank you for your
attention.

• Do not modify or attempt to modify the characteristics of this
washing machine. This could be dangerous for you.
• Your washing machine is intended for normal domestic use. Do

• Do not put articles in your washing machine if you have used a
solvent, alcohol, trichloroethylene, etc., to remove stains from
them. If you must use these stain removers, wait until the product
has evaporated before putting the articles in the drum.
• Collect all small articles such as socks, belts, etc., in a small cloth
bag or pillow case.
• Use the quantity of detergent indicated in the «proportioning of
detergents» section.
• Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning it and doing
any maintenance.
1.2. Precautions against frost
If your washing machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, take
the following precautions :
• Close the tap and disconnect the water supply pipe.
• Put the end of this pipe and the drain pipe into a bowl on the floor.
• Select the «Drain» programme and make sure it works until it is
complete.
• Switch the washing machine off by putting the program selector
to the «Off»*position or pressing on the «On/Off»* key.
• Unplug the washing machine.
• Screw in the water inlet pipe and install the drain pipe.
Water that remained in the pipes will then be evacuated, thus
preventing the formation of frost or ice that can damage your washing
machine.
The next time you want to use your washing machine, make sure that
it is installed in a room in which the temperature is above 0°C.

1.3. Scrapping
All materials marked with the symbol can be recycled. Put them
in a waste tip (ask for information from your municipal offices) so
that they can be recovered and recycled.
When you take your washing machine to the tip, make sure that
everything that could be dangerous is out of service ; cut the power
supply cable flush with the surface of your washing machine.
The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that
this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall
be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of
electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is dis-
posed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative conse-
quences for the environment and human health, which could
otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product.
For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please
contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service
or the shop where you purchased the product.
1.4. Protection of the environment
We recommend that the following instructions should be followed to
achieve savings in water and energy and therefore to contribute to
protection of the environment:
• If possible, use the washing machine at full capacity rather than
with partial loads (however, do not overload the drum).
• Only use the Prewash or Soak function for very dirty washing.
• Use a detergent dose adapted to the water hardness (see «propor-
tioning of detergents» section) and to the amount of washing
and how dirty it is.
