User manual WHIRLPOOL FL 5103 PROGRAM CHART

[. . . ] • Voltage information, power consumption and electrical protection data are supplied on the inside of the appliance door. • The appliance must be connected to the mains exclusively by means of a socket with an earth connection in accordance with established regulations. The manufacturer declines all liability for damage to property or injury to persons or animals deriving either directly or indirectly from failure to observe the directions. • Do not use extension leads or multi sockets. [. . . ] Pre-bleach method: Laundry with heavy stains may be PRE-BLEACHED in the machine prior to carrying out a normal wash programme. Proceed by diluting the bleach in approximately 1l water outside of the washing machine in a small container. For a machine with temperature selector: • Turn the programme selector to programme 4. • Turn the temperature selector to Min. Warning: Bleaching is only possible in a cold wash, otherwise your laundry and your appliance will be damaged. For a machine without temperature selector: • Turn the programme selector to programme 5. • Press the special option button “cold wash” (if available). Warning: Bleaching is only possible in a cold wash, otherwise your laundry and your appliance will be damaged. Poor the diluted bleach into chamber and start the machine. After this pre-bleach wash, do a normal wash, in which more not bleachable laundry can be added. Add detergent into chamber and start a wash programme. For this subsequent wash a lower temperature wash programme (for example 40°C) can be sufficient because of the pre-bleach treatment. In this way energy can be saved. Note: Bleach should only be used with bleachable fabrics. DYEING Commercially available products usually consist of a dye colour, fixing agent and salt. Note: After a correct draining cycle the residual water amounts about up to 1 litre but there can be up to 20 litres of water in the machine if stopped during a programme and even 40 litres if the pump is blocked. 5. Lower the drain hose into a container and let the water drain. Note: Make sure that the water has cooled before draining. Fix again the drain hose on the rear side of the machine (see arrow B) otherwise there is the risk of leakage and the normal filling and draining functions of the machine cannot be guaranteed. 8. Replace the drain hose with the “U” bend and fix it. • Before transporting (moving) the machine. • If the appliance is installed in a room subject to sub-zero temperatures. It is best in this case to drain the machine after every wash. 10 Black Process Plate 3gb10011. fm5 Page 11 Monday, June 18, 2001 1:08 PM CARE AND MAINTENANCE Appliance exterior and control panel • Clean using normal household cleaner (do not use abrasive products and no solvents). • Dry with a soft cloth.
