Resumen del manual
The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged. WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated. • This appliance was designed for domestic use only. • Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet. • Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging the appliance from the electricity socket. Hold the plug and pull. • Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while the machine is in operation. • Do not touch the drained water as it may reach extremely high temperatures. • Never force the porthole door. This could damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening. • If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances access the internal mechanisms in an attempt to repair it yourself. • Always keep children well away from the appliance while it is operating. • The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle. • If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group of two or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy. • Before loading laundry into the washer-dryer, make sure the drum is empty. • During the drying phase, the door tends to get quite hot. • Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have been washed with flammable solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene). • Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or similar elastomers. • Make sure that the water tap is turned on during the drying cycles. Disposal • Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regulations so that the packaging may be re-used. • The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection. For more information relating to the correct disposal of household appliances, owners should contact their local authorities or appliance dealer. Opening the porthole door manually In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the laundry, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the plug from the electrical socket.. 2. Make sure the water level inside the machine is lower than the door opening; if it is not, remove excess water using the drain hose, collecting it in a bucket as indicated in the figure. 3. Remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washer-dryer (see overleaf). 4. Pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull downwards and open the door at the same time. 5. Reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance. Care and maintenance Cutting off the water and electricity supplies • Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks. • Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it and during all maintenance work. Cleaning the washer-dryer The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives. Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer 21 To remove the drawer, press lever (1) and pull the drawer outwards (2) (see figure). Wash it under running water; this procedure should be repeated frequently. Cleaning the pump The washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the protective pre- chamber at the base of the pump. ! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the appliance. To access the pre-chamber: 123 1. Take off the cover panel on the front of the machine by first pressing it in the centre and then pushing downwards on both sides until you can remove it (see figures). 2. Unscrew the lid by rotating it anti-clockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal. 3. Clean the inside thoroughly. 4. Screw the lid back on. 5. Reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance. Checking the water inlet hose Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open. ! Never use second-hand hoses.
