1. THE NEW WASHING SYSTEM This new washing machine is the outcome of years of research. The leading-edge design and the quality of the production processes used to manufacture this product ensure it will give you many years of excellent service. Its concept satisfies all current and future washing requirements. Its low water, power and detergent consumption help protect the environment and reduce running costs to a minimum. Water and power consumption has been reduced in all programmes.
2. SAFETY WARNINGS Attention! These warnings are given for safety reasons. Please read them carefully before installing and using the appliance.

6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Important – Before cleaning or servicing the machine, remove the plug from the socket. 6.1 EXTERNAL CLEANING • • • • • Regular and constant cleaning will keep your appliance looking like new.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING This product complies with current safety regulations governing electrical equipment. For safety reasons, all technical inspections or repairs must be performed by qualified technicians in order to prevent hazardous situations for users. If the machine does not work, before calling the Service Centre and spending money unnecessarily, check that the operations indicated in this troubleshooting table have been performed.
11 The machine does not spin The unbalanced load sensor has triggered because the washing is not uniformly distributed inside the drum. If the washing is wet at the end of the cycle, distribute it well inside the basket and repeat just the spin cycle. 12 Draining water from the drum In the event of a power failure or a fault in the appliance, the water inside the drum can be drained as described in paragraph 6.
