Correct use
Do not install the washing machine in a room where there is a risk
of frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the elec-
tronic 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 “Installation
- Removing the transit bars”). 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 stopcock 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 im-
mediate 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, pa-
per clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds con-
tainer, drum), which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
Take care when opening the drum door after using the steam
function. Danger of burning due to escaping steam and the high
temperature of the surface of the drum as well as the porthole glass.
Stand back away from the machine and wait until the steam has dis-
sipated.
The maximum load for this washing machine is 7.0 kg (dry
weight). See the “Programme chart” for the maximum recommended
loads for individual programmes.
