Keep detergents and additives in a dry place and out of reach of children. Use only detergents and additives specifically produced for domestic washing machines. If you use descaling agents, dyes or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for washing machine use. Descaler could contain components that can attack parts of your washing machine. Do not use solvents (turpentine, benzine, etc. ). Do not machine wash fabrics that have been treated with solvents or flammable liquids. Dosage Follow the instructions on the detergent pack in relation to: · the degree and type of soiling; · the size of the load; - full load: follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions; - half load: 3/4 the amount used for a full load; - minimum load (about 1 kg): half the amount used for a full load; · water hardness in your area (ask for information from your water company): soft water requires less detergent than hard water. Notes: Too much detergent can result in excess foam formation, and the reduction of washing efficiency. If the washing machine detects excessive foam it may prevent spinning. Insufficient detergent may result in: grey laundry, deposits on the drum, tub and heater. When using concentrated fabric softeners, add water in the detergents dispenser up to "MAX" level mark. Switch on the machine again to start the "Drain" programme. GB 7 CLEANING THE FOREIGN BODY TRAP The washing machine is provided with a self-cleaning pump. The foreign body trap keeps objects like buttons, coins, safety-pins etc. Open the foreign body trap cover with a coin. Turn the foreign body trap slowly anti-clockwise until the grip is vertical; do not remove it as yet. Wait until all the water has drained out. Now unscrew the foreign body trap completely and extract it. Remove any foreign items from the foreign body trap. Make sure the pump impeller (in the housing behind the foreign body trap) is not obstructed. Insert the foreign body trap again and screw it fully down in a clockwise direction to the stop (until the grip is horizontal). Pour 0. 5 litres of water into the machine via the drum and check that water does not leak from the foreign body trap. Check the foreign body trap if the washing machine is not draining correctly or if it fails to perform spin cycles. [. . . ] · The washing machine must not be connected to the mixing tap of a non-pressurized water heater!· The inlet hose and the plastic enclosure contain (depending on model) electrical components: do not cut the hose and do not immerse the enclosure in water. · If the flexible hose is damaged, unplug the washing machine from the mains immediately, turn off the tap and replace the hose. If the flexible hose is too short, replace it with a 3 m Water Stop hose (available from After-Sales Service or from your dealer). [. . . ]
