Use
• This appliance is designed for domestic use. It must
not be used for purposes other than those for which it
was designed.
• Only wash and dry fabrics which are designed to be
machine washed or dried. Follow the instructions on
each garment label
• Do not overload the appliance. See the Washing Pro-
gramme Table.
• Before washing, ensure that all pockets are empty and
buttons and zips are fastened. Avoid washing frayed or
torn articles and treat stains such as paint, ink, rust,
and grass before washing. Underwired bras must NOT
be machine washed.
• Garments which have been in contact with volatile pe-
troleum products should not be machine washed. If
volatile cleaning fluids are used, care should be taken
to ensure that the fluid is removed from the garment
before placing in the machine.
• As some duvets and eiderdowns should be washed/
dried in large commercial machines because of their
bulk, please check with the manufacturer of the item
before washing in a domestic machine.
• The users should always check that they have not left
their gas lighters (disposable or otherwise) in their
clothing.
• Never tumble dry items that have had contact with
chemicals such as dry cleaning fluid. These are of a
volatile nature and could cause an explosion. Only
tumble dry items which have been washed in water or
require airing.
• Plastic detergent dispensers should not remain in the
drum during the drying cycle, as the plastic used is not
designed to withstand the heat. If you wish to wash-
through-to-dry you should use the conventional de-
tergent dispenser drawer.
• Never pull the power supply cable to remove the plug
from the socket; always take hold of the plug itself.
• Never use your new appliance if the power supply ca-
ble, the control panel, the working surface or the base
are damaged so that the inside of the appliance is ac-
cessible.
