Make sure that the appliance does not stand on its electrical supply cable. If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor, please adjust the feet to ensure that air can circulate freely. Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water after use. Do not overload the appliance. Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. If in doubt, follow the instructions you find on the label of the item itself. Make sure that all pockets are empty. Hard, sharp objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws or stones can cause extensive damage. Do not machine wash fabrics which are saturated with petroleum products.

They must all be removed before using your machine for the first time. These parts and their securing means should be kept in case the machine has to be transported again. Fig.1 Fig.2 If you want to keep the alignment of your appliance with the adjacent cupboards, you have the possibility to cut the crossbar holding the hoses located at the back of your washing machine (fig.6). Fig 6 Water connection Water inlet hose : Connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap with a 3/4" gas threaded orifice, after having inserted the rugger sealing washer with incorporated filter (supplied with the machine) into the hose collar. If the water connection is made onto new pipes or onto pipes which have not been used for a long time, it is advisable to run off a certain amount of water before connecting the machine. This will avoid foreign matter blocking the filter placed at the end of the water inlet hose. Water outlet hose : Place the curved end of the outled hose into a drain pipe having a height between 70 and 100 cms from floor level or secure it to a sink or bath tub. Make sure that the drain hose is firmly secured so that it will not slip out or fall down from its position. The water should drain freely and, consequently, the drain hose should not be choked or placed in such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow. If an extension hose is required, remember that it might cause a malfunction in the drain pump, particularly if the extension has a length in excess of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension is smaller than the diameter of the original drain hose. 1. Unpack the appliance. Tilt the appliance backwards. Give to one of the back corners a quarter turn. The appliance comes free naturally out the polystyrene basis. Take away this basis (fig.1). 2. Open the lid of the appliance and remove the polystyrene wedge which blocks the drum. Close the lid (fig.2). Fig.3 A Fig.4 B 3.

Other types of wool and wool mixtures may shrink or felt if machine-washed. Woollen garments should be spun briefly immediately after washing. Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast colours and woollen garments must never be washed above 40°C. As you already know, your washing machine can also wash with cold water. However, it must be remembered that the detergents currently on the market have not been designed for cold washes and that in winter, when the water is very cold, they may not dissolve adequately. We suggest the use of liquid detergents. How much laundry can be washed in one load? Strictly speaking you should always weigh your laundry. The drum will take a maximum of 5 kg of cotton and linen.
