Disposal

• TheEuropeanDirective2012/19/EU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 washing machine (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.
