… Technical data VAS Vibration Absorbing System As the washing drum starts to spin, if the control system detects that the load is out of balance it will interrupt the spinning action once or more. The appliance tries thereby to distribute the load more evenly inside the washing drum. Whilst spinning the washing drum is actively balanced as required in all speed stages by the corrugations filling with the required amount of water. This ensures optimal care and draining of the washing.
Disposal Packaging 䡲 All packaging materials (cardboard, plastic film (PE) and polystyrene (EPS)) are marked and should, if possible, be collected for recycling and disposed of in an environmentally friendly way. Disconnection 䡲 Disconnect the appliance from the mains. With a fixed appliance, this is to be carried out by a qualified electrician! Safety 䡲 Disable the appliance to prevent accidents caused by improper use, espe- cially through children playing.
