Safeties

Lid : your washing machine is equipped with

a safety avoiding the switching of the appliance

when the flapdoors of the drum are opened ;

the closure of the lid is so impossible. An

electromechanic safety prohibits the opening

of the lid when the washing machine works and

2 minutes after the end of the programme.

Washing motor : in case of mechanic

overloading, overvoltage, a thermic safety

protects automatically the motor.

Heating : the heating can only begin when

the water quantity necessary for the washing

is in the tub. This safety is useful when there is

a water break-up or if you forget to open the

water inlet hose.

The anti-foam system: water consumption is very

low, due to the electronic spin cycle with an inter-

mediate spin after the main wash and three rinse

cycles for white and color programs. The spin cycle

remains under the control of the foam detection

system after the wash cycle has finished. If

necessary, the spin cycle will stop until all foam is

removed.

Anti-balanced system : This safety allows to the

appliance to keep a perfect stability during the

intermediaryspinnings and duringthefinal spinning.

Ifyou notice thatyourlaundry isnotspinned enough,

the anti-balanced system has then detected a bad

distribution of the laundry during the final spinning ;

so it is adviced to realize a new spinning taking care

to unpack handly the laundry before.

Environmental information

All materials marked by the symbol are

biodegradable. They can be disposed of without dan-

ger or burnt in rubbish incinerators.

In order to realize water and energy savings and to act

in an environmentally conscious manner, we advice to

follow the below instructions :

- use if possible the appliance with full loads

instead of partial loads. Take care to do not

overload the drum.

- Use only the programmes with prewash for very

soiled laundry.

- Savings on detergent and for the environment

may also be achieved if with medium to hard

water you add sufficient detergent for soft water

and then add separately a softener. This relieves

our waters of a certain amount of chemicals.

When disposing of the machine in a proper

manner, destroy the door lock and cut off the

power supply cord.
