This washer dryer was designed and constructed in ac-
cordance with international safety regulations. The following
information is provided for safety reasons and must therefore
be read carefully.

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 capabi-
lities 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 dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
– Items that have been soiled with substan-
ces such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol,
petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine,
waxes and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with an extra amount of deter-
gent before being dried in the tumble dryer.
– Items such as foam rubber (latex foam),
shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted
with foam rubber pads should not be dried in
the tumble dryer.
– Fabric softeners, or similar products,
should be used as specified by the fabric
softener instructions.
– The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs
without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that
the items are left at a temperature that ensures
that the items will not be damaged.
WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before
the end of the drying cycle unless all items
are quickly removed and spread out so that
the heat is dissipated.
•
Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or
damp hands or feet.
•
Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging
the appliance from the electricity socket. 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 extreme-
ly high temperatures.
•
Never force the porthole door. This could damage the
safety lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental
opening.
•
If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circum-
stances 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

Before loading laundry into the washer-dryer, make sure
the drum is empty.

• Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that
have been washed with flammable solvents

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regu-
lations so that the packaging may be re-used.
• The European Directive 2012/19/EU - WEEE on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that old hou-
sehold electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the
normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances
must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery
and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the
impact on human health and the environment. The crossed
out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of
your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it
must be separately collected. Consumers should contact
their local authority or retailer for information concerning the
correct disposal of their old appliance.
