Warning and Safety instructions
Correct application
~
The maximum load capacity is 6.5 kg (dry laundry). See the
"Programme chart" for the specific load capacities of individual
programmes.
~
Do not install your machine in rooms where temperatures below
freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability
of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below
freezing point.
~
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the transit
bars at the rear of the machine have been removed (see section on
"Installation"). During spinning, a transit bar which is still in place
may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent furniture or
appliances.
~
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time
(e.g. holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the imme-
diate vicinity.
~
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a wash basin, check that the water can
drain off quickly enough to prevent the sink from overflowing. Make
sure the drain hose is secure, so that the force of the water flowing
out of the hose does not dislodge it.
~
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,
paper clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds
container, drum), which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
