Precautions Against Frost - AEG LAVAMAT BELLA 1480 User Manual

• Do not put articles in your washing machine if you have used a
solvent, alcohol, trichloroethylene, etc., to remove stains from
them. If you must use these stain removers, wait until the pro-
duct has evaporated before putting the articles in the drum.
• Collect all small articles such as socks, belts, etc., in a small cloth
bag or pillow case.
• Use the quantity of detergent indicated in the «proportioning of
detergents» section.
• Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning it and doing
any maintenance.

Precautions against frost

If your washing machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, take
the following precautions :
• Close the tap and disconnect the water supply pipe.
• Put the end of this pipe and the drain pipe into a bowl on the
floor.
• Select the «Drain» programme and make sure it works until it is
complete.
• Switch the washing machine off by putting the program selector
*
to the «Off» position or pressing on the «On/Off»* key.
• Unplug the washing machine.
• Screw in the water inlet pipe and install the drain pipe.
Water that remained in the pipes will then be evacuated, thus
preventing the formation of frost or ice that can damage your
washing machine.
The next time you want to use your washing machine, make sure that
it is installed in a room in which the temperature is above 0°C.
