Safeties

Lid : your washing machine is equipped with

asafety avoidingthe switching of theappliance

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.

Environmental information

All materials marked by the symbol are

biodegradable. They can be disposed of without

danger 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

andthenadd separately asoftener. 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.
