A. FOR THE USER

1. WARNINGS

Keep this user’s manual with your washing machine. If you sell your washing machine or give it away, make sure that it is

accompanied by its user’s manual. The new user can then be informed of how the washing machine operates and read re-

levant warnings.

These warnings have been written for your safety and for the safety of others. Please read these comments care-

fully before installing and using your washing machine. Thank you for your attention.

1.1. Usage

• When you receive your washing machine, unpack it or

have it unpacked immediately. Check its general

appearance. Make any reserves in writing on the deli-

very form and keep a copy.

• Your washing machine was designed for use by adults.

Make sure that children do not touch it or use it as a

toy.

• Do not modify or attempt to modify the characteristics

of this washing machine. This could be dangerous for

you.

• Your washing machine is intended for normal domestic

use. Do not use it for commercial or industrial purpo-

ses or for any purpose other than that for which it was

designed : to wash, to rinse and to spin.

• Unplug the power suplly plug and close the water sup-

ply tap every time after using your washing machine.

• Only wash articles that can resist machine washing.

Refer to the instructions on the label for each article.

• Do not wash underwear with bones, or any material

without hems, or torn materials in your washing

machine.

• Remember to remove all coins, safety pins, boraches,

screws, etc., before each wash. They can cause

serious damage if they are left in your washing.

• Do not put articles in your washing machine if you have

used a solvent, alcohol, trichloroethylene, etc., to

remove stains from them. If you must use these stain

removers, wait until the product has evaporated before

putting the articles in the drum.

• Collect all small articles such as socks, belts, etc., in a

small cloth bag or pillow case.

• Use the quantity of detergent indicated in the «propor-

tioning of detergents» section.

• Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning it

and doing any maintenance.

1.2. Precautions against frost

If your washing machine is exposed to temperatures below

0°C, take the following precautions :

• Close the tap and disconnect the water supply pipe.

• Put the end of this pipe and the drain pipe into a bowl

on the floor.

• Select the «Drain» programme and make sure it works

until it is complete.

• Switch the washing machine off by putting the program

selector to the «Off»

position or pressing on the «On/

Off»* key.

• Unplug the washing machine.

• Screw in the water inlet pipe and install the drain pipe.

Water that remained in the pipes will then be evacuated,

thus preventing the formation of frost or ice that can dama-

ge your washing machine.

The next time you want to use your washing machine,

make sure that it is installed in a room in which the tempe-

rature is above 0°C.

1.3. Scrapping

All materials marked with the symbol can be recycled.

Put them in a waste tip (ask for information from your mu-

nicipal offices) so that they can be recovered and recycled.

When you take your washing machine to the tip, make sure

that everything that could be dangerous is out of service ;

cut the power supply cable flush with the surface of your

washing machine.

1.4. Protection of the environment

We recommend that the following instructions should be

followed to achieve savings in water and energy and the-

refore to contribute to protection of the environment:

• If possible, use the washing machine at full capacity

rather than with partial loads (however, do not overload

the drum).

• Only use the Prewash or Soak function for very dirty

washing.

• Use a detergent dose adapted to the water hardness

(see «proportioning of detergents» section) and to the

amount of washing and how dirty it is.

Can I stack my dryer and washing machine? Verified

In general it is possible to directly stack a dryer and washing machine directly on top of each other. This only works with front loading models. However, it is advisable to use a fitting accessory to do so. This will prevent the machines from vibrating and falling off and also prevents damage to the bottom machine.

What is the difference in usage between a washer-dryer and a separate washing machine and dryer? Verified

The biggest advantage of a washer-dryer is that it takes less space. However, a separate dryer will be able to dry more than a washer-dryer. A washer-dryer also uses relatively more energy and requires more time.

Can I connect a washing machine to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a washing machine, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the washing machine is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

I want to know the age of my Electrolux appliance. How do I do that? Verified

You can determine the age of your product by using the serial number. This can be found on your device. The first character of the serial number indicates a year (ie: 1 = 2001) and the two characters after that indicate the week of production (ie: 35 = week 35 of that year). So the serial number 13500016 indicates that the machine is from week 35 of the year 2001.
