ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Our washing machines are supplied to operate at 220÷230 V, 50 Hz. Make sure that the power rating is at least 3 Kw. Then connect the plug to a suitable 10 A earthed socket. Make sure that it is properly earthed. Your socket and the washing machine plug must be of the same kind. We would generally not recommend the use of multiple plug adopters or extension leads. Zerowatt washing machines are manufactured to IMO Institute safety requirements.

The use of any appliance requires that some basic rules be observed, in order to ensure personal safety, for example: - do not touch the machine by wet hands or feet;

- do not use the machine when you are bare foot; - do not use extension leads in the bathroom unless special cave is taken; - do not expose the machine in the open air (under rain, sunshine or other).

N° 2 or N° 4 plastic spacers will fall inside the machine. 3) By tiling the machine, remove the above mentioned plastic spacers. 4) Stop the holes using the plug that you will find inside the bag containing the instruction book. Use front feet to level the machine with the floor. Place the machine which is fitted with 2 adjustable feet in position.

Important! If the appliance is going to be installed on a carpet or rug, make sure that the ventilation grille in the base of the machine is not blocked.

The machine is equipped with a water inlet hose E with 3/4" junctions at both its ends. This hose is to be connected between the threaded ring filled to the machine and the water pipe.

The machine must be connected to a cold water pipe and any connection with hot water distribution sources must be absolutely avoided.

WARNING! After every wash, it is advisable to close the inlet cock in order to isolate the machine from the water circuit.

If the position of the inlet hose supply is changed, make sure that the 3/4" junction of the inlet hose is well connected to the electric valve connection.

For the correct working of the washing machine, the end of the drain hose F must be at least a minimum of 70 cm to a maximum of 90 cm above the floor level.

IMPORTANT: Remember that some detergents are difficult to remove. In this case we advise the use of the special container to be used inside the drum.

The use of ecological detergents containing no phosphales may cause the following effects: - the drain water during the rinse phase appears more cloudy, but the efficiency of the rinse is not compromised; - the presence of white powder on the clothes at the end of washing, but it does not spoil the fabrics nor other their colours.

ECONOMY

The appliances with "Variable load" function permit to use the detergent quantity adequate to the quantity of linen to wash, avoiding useless waste. Inside the detergent drawer you can find the indicative levels of detergent to use according to the load kilograms (1:2-3:4-5-6). For the appliances with "1/2 load" function, in case of little load, it is sufficient to use half of the maximum quantity of detergent the drawer can contain.
