Indesit WDE 12 - Manual (Page 15)

Instructions for installation and use 14
Your safety and that of
your family
Important for the safe use of your washer-dryer
Your washer-dryer has been built in compliance
with the strictest international safety regulations.
To protect you and all your family.
Read these instructions and all
the information in this manual
carefully: they are an important
source, not only of numerous
useful tips, but also of vital
information on safety, use and
maintenance.
1. the machine should not be
installed in an outdoor
environment, not even
when a roof shelters the
area, because it may be very
dangerous to leave it
exposed to rain and
thunderstorms.
2. It must only be used by
adults and exclusively for
washing clothes following
the instructions provided in
this manual.
3. Should it have to be moved,
proceed with the help of two
or three people and handle
it with the utmost care.
Never try to do this alone,
because the appliance is
very heavy.
4. Before loading the washer-
dryer, make sure the drum
is empty.
5. Never touch the washer-
dryer when barefoot or
with wet or damp hands
or feet.
6. Never use extensions or
multiple plugs, which are
particularly dangerous in
humid environments. The
power supply cable must
never be bent or
dangerously compressed.
7. Never open the detergent
dispenser while the
appliance is functioning;
do not use hand wash
detergent because the
abundance of foam could
damage its internal parts.
8. Never pull on the supply
cable or the washer-dryer to
disconnect it from the wall
socket: it is extremely
dangerous.
9. While the appliance is
functioning, do not touch
the drain water as it could
reach very high
temperatures. The
appliance door, during
wash cycles, tends to
become hot; ensure that
children do no touch it.
Never force the washer-
dryer door because this
could damage the safety
lock which prevents
accidental opening when the
machine is working. Allow a
few minutes at the end of the
program for the lock to
release.
10. In case of malfunctio-ning,
first close the water tap
and unplug the appliance
from the wall socket; do
not under any
circumstances touch
internal parts in order to
attempt repairs.
11. If you interrupt a Wash
Programme before its
end, then the water and
clothes may be hot. The
water level may also be
above the door, see
instruction for draining
the machine before you
open the door and handle
with caution .
12. During the Tumble Drying
programme and at its end,
the clothes and drum of
the machine may be hot,
handle with caution and
do not touch the drum.
I only want an authorised
specialised technician with
original Indesit spare parts!
