If the machine is damaged
If the machine has been damaged during transportation,
you should immediately notify the company responsible for
delivering it. Check that the washing machine is undamaged.
If you discover any damage, faults or that anything is missing,
you should notify the seller immediately.
Never leave packaging material in a place where
children may play with it.
When lifting the machine
Take care when lifting the machine. Incorrect methods of
lifting can cause physical injuries, and also increase the
risk of damage to the machine. Open the door and take
hold of it inside the top of the door opening. You can also
grasp the rear overhang of the machine top to lift this
machine. Never lift the machine by gripping its control
panel, the door itself, or its detergent dispenser (Fig. 1).
Transit locking devices
When supplied the washing machine is packed using a
number of locking devices/packing pieces to prevent drum
and motor from damage in transit. These must all be removed
before the washing machine is installed.
Spread some of the polystyrene packaging materials on the
floor behind the machine and then lay the machine carefully
rearside down on them. Make sure that no hoses are crushed
in the process (Fig. 2).
Remove the polystyrene base the machine was transported on.
Then return the machine to its normal upright position and
undo the three screws and transit locking devices below on
its rear (Fig. 3).
The three holes must then be plugged with the plastic
plugs supplied with the machine in the plastic bag inside
the drum (Fig. 4).
Identification of materials
All materials used in packaging this machine are environ-
mentally-friendly. The various plastics used are identified
and can be recycled:
• PE stands for polyethylene, which is used for the bag
around the machine and the bag in which these instruc-
tions were supplied.
• PS stands for polystyrene (moulded), which is used for
the sections of packaging needed to cushion the machine.
The cardboard components of the packaging are made from
recyclable paper and should be taken to a collection point
for recycling. The machine contains plastic and rubber
components. These have identifying marks to show what
they are made from, so they can be recycled or disposed of
properly at the end of the machine's life. The materials are
identified according to international standards.
