,WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
~Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
~GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
~WARNING - Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
may result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
~Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
~Do not allow children to play on or in
the appliance. Close supervision is
necessary when the appliance is used
near children.
~Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
not add these items to the wash load.
~Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot water
system that has not been used for 2
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has
not been used for such a period, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
~Before the appliance is removed for
service or discarded, remove the door.
~Do not reach into the appliance if
the drum is moving.
~Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to the weather.
~Do not tamper with
the controls.
~Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in
these operating instructions.

Guide to the washer
5
The appliance must be correctly
installed and connected before the
first use. Please see the "Installation
instructions".
This washing machine has
undergone thorough functional
testing in the factory, there may be
some residual water in the drum
from this process.
For safety reasons, it is not possible to
run a spin cycle before the first use. A
program must be run without laundry
and detergent to flush out any residual
water from the factory testing process,
as well as to activate the spin cycle.
^Turn on the water valve.
^Press the "On / Off" button.
^Select the "Extra White" program with
the program buttons.
^Press the "Start / Stop" button.
Once the program ends, the washer
can be used for laundry.
Before using for the first time
6
1. Prepare and sort the laundry
^Empty all pockets.
,Foreign objects left in pockets
(e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.)
can cause damage to clothes and
the machine.
^Sort the laundry.
Only wash items in the machine that are
labeled machine washable by the
manufacturer. Most garments have a
fabric care label in the collar or side
seam. Sort the laundry by care label
and color.
^Pretreat stains.
Tough stains (e.g. blood, egg, coffee,
tea, etc.) or badly soiled areas (e.g.
collars and cuffs) should be penetrated
with a stain remover or a paste made
from powdered detergent and warm
water.
,Do not use chemical solvents in
the machine.
General tips
– Dark fabrics often bleed the first few
times they are washed. They should
be washed separately several times
before being included in a mixed
load.
– Remove any lead weights or strips
from curtains before washing.
– Loose underwires should be
removed or sewn in place before
washing.
– Woolens and knitted garments
should be turned inside out.
– Close zippers and hooks and eyes
before washing.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened in order to
prevent small items from rolling
inside of them.
Do not machine wash items if it is not
recommended on the fabric care label.

^Turn on the washer using the
"On / Off" button.
^Open the drum door using the "Door"
button.
^Load the laundry into the drum. For
best results, wash mixed loads of
small and large items. This will
improve washing effectiveness and
help distribute the load evenly.
Note: Overloading the washer will
cause poor wash results and wrinkling.
^Close the drum door.
To prevent damage to the door seal
and clothing, make sure that there is
nothing caught between the drum
door and the seal.
