Connecting the drain
hose
Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a drain duct or a wall drain situated between 65 and
100 cm from the floor.
Alternatively, place the drain hose over the edge of a washbasin or bathtub, by fastening the guide
(which can be purchased at the technical assistance centre) to the tap. The free end of the hose
should not be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must have
the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Electrical
connections
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance with the applicable law;
• the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum power load indicated on the Technical Data
Plate fixed on the machine;
• the supply voltage is included within the values indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine.
• the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
General safety
• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be
made by children without supervision.
• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.

Hold the plug and pull.
• Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while the machine is in operation.
• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach extremely high temperatures.

• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances access the internal mechanisms in
an attempt to repair it yourself.
• Always keep children well away from the appliance while it is operating.
• The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.
• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group of two or three people and handle it with the
