SECTION 1: BEFORE USE SAFETY WARNINGS Do not use a multiple socket or extension cable. Do not connect a plug with a damaged cord into a socket. If the cord is damaged it should be replaced by the manufacturer or appointed service agent in order to avoid a hazard. Never remove the plug from the socket by pulling the cord section. Remove the plug only by gripping the plug itself. Do not plug the machine to the power supply with wet hands. Never touch the machine with wet hands or feet.
If you plan not to use your machine for a long time, unplug it, shut off the water supply and leave the door open in order to keep the inside of the machine dry and to prevent unpleasant odours in the drum. As a result of our quality control procedures, a certain amount of water may remain in your machine from testing. This is not harmful for your machine and is perfectly normal. SECTION 2: INSTALLATION Please pay attention to the following issues before using your washing machine for the first time.
You can level your machine by adjusting its feet. First, loosen the plastic adjustment nut away from the cabinet base. Change the level by adjusting the feet upwards or downwards. When the machine is level and stable, tighten the plastic adjustment nut again by rotating it upwards against the base of the cabinet. Never put cartons, wooden blocks or similar materials under the machine to balance irregularities of the floor. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Your washing machine requires a 50Hz supply of 220-240V.
