Warnings Installation • Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the appliance is not in use. This preserves the door seal and prevents the formation of musty smells. • All internal packing must be removed before using the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective transit devices are not removed or are not completely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in the instruction book. • Always check that water has emptied out before opening the door.
Child safety • Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach. • Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances can be. When the machine is working, children should be carefully supervised and not be allowed to play with the appliance. • Make sure that children or pets do not climb into the drum. • When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the electrical supply cable and destroy the plug with the remaining cable.

Maintenance 1. Bodywork 3. Drain filter Clean the outside of the machine with warm water and a neutral, non-abrasive household detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. The drain filter collects threads and small objects inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that the filter is clean. Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the bodywork. Place a container under the filter and unscrew it. 2.
5. Emergency emptying out If the water is not discharged (outlet pump is blocked, filter or drain hose are clogged), proceed as follows to empty out the machine: ENGLISH • pull out the plug from the power socket; • close the water tap; • if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down; • place a bowl on the floor; • put the drain hose end into the bowl and let the water come out.
Something not working? Problems which you can resolve yourself. Problem Possible cause • The machine does not start up: • The door is not firmly closed. • The machine is not plugged in or there is no power at the socket. • The main fuse has blown. • The programme selector dial is not positioned correctly and the ON/OFF button has not been depressed. • The water tap is closed. • The machine does not fill: • The inlet hose is squashed or kinked. • The filter in the inlet hose is blocked.
Possible cause • Spinning starts late or the machine does not spin: • The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 5 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin.
