Please read the following

be the risk of personal injury or
material damage. Moreover, any
warranty and reliability commitment

General Safety
• Never place your machine on a
carpet covered floor. Otherwise, lack
of airflow from below your machine
may cause electrical parts to
overheat. This may cause problems
with your washing machine.
• If the power cable or mains plug is
damaged you must call Authorized
Service for repair.
• Check water hoses for wear. Do
not use old/used water inlet hoses.
These may cause stains on your
laundry.
• Fit the drain hose into the waste
water system securely to prevent
any water leakage and to allow
machine to take in and discharge
water as required. It is very
important that the water intake
and drain hoses are not folded,
squeezed, or broken when the
appliance is pushed into place after
it is installed or cleaned.
• Your washing machine is designed
to continue operating when the
power restores after a power
interruption. You cannot cancel
any programme by pressing the
“On/Off button.” The machine will
resume its programme when the
power restores. Press the “Start/
Pause/Cancel” button for 3 seconds
to cancel the programme (See,
Cancelling a Programme)
• There may be some water in your
machine when you receive it. This is
from the quality control process and
is normal. It is not harmful to your
machine.
• Some problems you may encounter
may be caused by the software.
Press “Start/Pause/Cancel”
button for 3 seconds to cancel the
programme set in your machine
before calling the authorized service.

washing, carry out your first washing
process without loading your
