Safeties

Lid : your washing machine is equipped with

a safety avoiding the switching of the appliance

when the flapdoors of the drum are open;

the closure of the lid is so impossible. An

electromechanic safety prohibits the opening

ofthelidwhenthewashingmachineisworkingand

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 coloureds programmes.

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

intermediaryspinningsandduringthefinalspinning.

Ifyounoticethatyourlaundryisnotspinnedenough,

the anti-balanced system has then detected a bad

distributionofthelaundry during the finalspinning;

soitisadvicedtorealizeanewspinningtakingcare

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 save water and energy and to act in an

environmentallyconsciousmanner,weadviceyouvto

follow the below instructions :

-Useifpossibletheappliancewithfullloadsinsteadof

partial loads. Take care to not overload the drum.

- Use only the programmes with prewash for very soi-

led 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.
