BRANDT ·SAFETY ADVICE Important : This machine is only for domestic use and is designed to wash, rinse and spin machine-washable textiles. We refuse to accept any liability and the guarantee if you do not observe these recommendations since this could result in damage to equipment or physical injury. [. . . ] -- Install your machine in an area where it could be subject to water splashes. If you cannot avoid doing this, please take every precaution to avoid blocking air circulation at the bottom of the machine in order to ensure that the internal components are well ventilated. ·Dispensing the detergent The amount of detergent to be used depends on the hardness of the water, the extent to which your washing is soiled and the amount of washing to be washed. Warning: in most cases, the detergent manufacturer's recommendations apply to the drum filled to the maximum. Adjust the dosage correctly to the weight of the washing you have placed in the machine. These recommendations will help you to avoid using too much detergent, which causes foam to be produced. In any case, the"Start/Pause" button cannot cancel a programme. Important : Before starting your machine, check that the power cable is plugged in and the water tap is open. Also ensure that the drum doors are closed correctly and the machine's lid is shut. During the "End of Cycle" phase, any action on one of the controls (the selectors or the buttons) returns you to "Programming" mode. As a safety measure, when the cycle is over, we recommend that you unplug the power cable and turn off the water tap.
