2. INTRODUCTION
The present booklet was formulated in a
simple and rational way, in order for the
reader to become familiar with the washing
machine. Please, read it carefully and keep
it near the machine at all times. The advice
and instructions contained in this manual
cannot cover every possible contingency.
This is why it is important to keep in mind
that common sense and caution cannot be
supplied by the manufacturer along with the
appliance, but must be contributed by those
in charge of its installation, maintenance
and use. Whoever operates the machine
must have read this manual beforehand.
In case of repairs the manufacturer warmly
recommends the use of original spare parts.
As for ordering these, reference is made to
paragraph 8.
The descriptions and sketches reported in
this manual do not bind the manufacturer,
who reserves the right to update them and/
or include any upgrading modification of
parts and fittings at any time and with no
previous notice if this is deemed necessary
for manufacturing or commercial purposes.
3. PRESCRIPTIONS, RESTRICTIONS
AND OTHER USES
The machine must be operated by trained
personnel only.
Disconnect it in case of malfunction and/or
faulty operation.
During use, cleaning and maintenance it is
absolutely necessary to be sure that tools or
hands are never stuck in the moving parts of
the appliance (motor, belts, etc.). The
manufacturer disclaims all liability for any
personal injury to operators or other people
occurring while using, cleaning or servicing
the machine.
Do not open the dispenser while the
appliance is working. The detergents and
warm water involved may represent a hazard.
The appliance was designed for washing
fabrics following the instructions that can
be read on the labels attached to the garments
or fabrics. Only wash clothes, household
linen and ordinary everyday-use fabrics.
Do not load the machine with fabrics that
have been in contact with inflammables or
chemicals. If this is unavoidable, hand-
wash them and air-dry them to let those
substances evaporate.
The operation of any electric or electronic
appliance entails compliance with certain
basic rules and in this case particularly: In
particular: do not touch the machine with
damp or wet hands or feet; do not use it
while barefoot, do not expose it to
atmospheric agents like rain, salt, salinity,
etc. do not allow machine operation by
children or disabled persons without proper
supervision; do not smoke near the machine
or during operation; do not override or by-
pass safety devices; do not clean the machine
by spilling water directly or indirectly over
it and therefore, install far from areas in
which these events are likely to occur.

4. SHIPPING, HANDLING,
UNPACKING AND STORING THE
MACHINE
4.1. SHIPPING AND HANDLING
To handle and/or ship the machine follow
carefully the ensuing recommendations:
Move the machine on its own pallet or on a
similar platform; use a fork lift, either manual
or electric, provided it is adequate for
handling such appliances and it has the
requisite lifting capacity (cfr. technical data).
Check beforehand that the appliance can
surmount every existing obstacle, like
staircases, doors, etc. Do not drag the
machine by the sides or by any other part.
For shipping purposes, use only the original
packaging, which helps ensure sufficient
stability during transportation.
4.2 STORING
If the appliance must be stored for a long
period before being put into operation, keep
it inside the original package, since this
guarantees best protection. Store it in
premises where ambient conditions comply
with the requirements in paragraph 5. If the
machine must be out of service for a long
period after use, ensure that it is materially
disconnected from the electric power supply
and cover it with its original plastic bag.
4.3 UNPACKING
1) Prior to accepting the machine from the
carrier, check the conditions of the package.
If it is showing visible damage, the machine
may have been damaged too. In this case,
unpack the machine in the presence of the
carrier and sign, under reservation, the
delivery slip. The manufacturer assumes no
liability for any damage caused by
transportation or improper storage.
2) Unpack the machine with the utmost care
to avoid damage. To remove the platform,
take off the screws on the inside of the same
and located at the machine floor-fastening
holes.
