Margherita - Instructions for installation and use
Your safety and that of
your family
Important for the safe use of your Margherita
Margherita has been built in compliance with
the strictest international safety regulations.
To protect you and all your family.
Read these instructions and all
the information in this manual
carefully: they are an
important source, not only of
numerous useful tips, but also
of vital information on safety,
use and maintenance.
1. Margherita should not be
installed in an outdoor
environment, not even
when a roof shelters the
area, because it may be
very dangerous to leave it
exposed to rain and
thunderstorms.
2. It must only be used by
adults and exclusively for
washing clothes following
the instructions provided in
this manual.
3. Should it have to be moved,
proceed with the help of
two or three people and
handle it with the utmost
care. Never try to do this
alone, because the
appliance is very heavy.
4. Before loading the washing
machine, make sure the
drum is empty.
5. Never touch the washing
machine when barefoot
or with wet or damp
hands or feet.
6. Never use extensions or
multiple plugs, which are
particularly dangerous in
humid environments. The
power supply cable must
never be bent or
dangerously compressed.
7. Never open the detergent
dispenser while the
appliance is functioning;
do not use hand wash
detergent because the
abundance of foam could
damage its internal parts.
The Margherita power
supply cable is special and
can be purchased
exclusively from
authorised Technical
Service Centres.
To replace the cable:
1. Make sure that Marghe-
rita is switched off and
unplugged.
2. Remove the covering lid by
unscrewing the two screws
I, and then pull it towards
you [fig. 3].
3. Disconnect the wires from
the radio interference
suppressor F [fig. 4] noting as
to their position (Blue=N wire;
Brown=L wire) leaving the
earth wire until last .
N.B.: letters L, N and the
symbol are indicated on
the radio interference
suppressor.
4. Remove the upper part of
the cable slightly from the
back panel of the appliance,
pull the power supply cable
upwards and take it out
[fig. 5].
To connect the new power
supply cable, reverse the pro-
cedure.
To put the covering lid back
on, rest it on the washing
machine [fig. 6] and let it slide
forwards until the hooks
situated on the front slide
into the special slots formed
into the control panel and
tighten the screws back on.

8. Never pull on the supply
cable or the washing
machine to disconnect it
from the wall socket: it is
extremely dangerous.
9. While the appliance is
functioning, do not touch
the drain water as it
could reach very high
temperatures. The
appliance door, during
wash cycles, tends to
become hot; ensure that
children do no touch it.
Never force the washing
machine door because
this could damage the
safety lock which prevents
accidental opening when
the nachine is working.
Allow a few minutes at the
end of the program for the
lock to release.
10. In case of malfunctio-
ning, first close the
water tap and unplug the
appliance from the wall
socket; do not under any
circumstances touch
internal parts in order to
attempt repairs.
I only want an
authorised specialised
technician with original
Ariston spare parts!
