Observe Before Start-Up - Schulthess Spirit topLine 8120 Bedienungsanleitung

Inexpert repairs can cause considerable
damage and risk to the user. Modifications
to the appliance are only admissible after
consultation with the manufacturer.
If the mains lead to this device becomes
damaged, it must be replaced with a spe-
cial lead available from the manufacturer
or the manufacturer›s customer service.
Detergents and laundry care agents must
be kept out of children's reach. Store
laundry detergents, aids and other additi-
ves in a dry, cool place, as clumpy deter-
gent can lead to functional problems.
In case of doubt, ask Customer Service or
a dealer.

Observe before start-up:

Read the enclosed documents carefully
before using your washing machine.
They contain important information on
the installation, use and safety of the
machine.
Keep the documents safe for other users
or subsequent owners.
Remove the transport-securing device and
store it in a safe place.
Have the machine installed according to
the mounting instructions by qualified and
trained personnel.
If the machine is to be placed on a plinth,
it must be mounted according to the
i nstallation instructions, otherwise this
involves danger of tipping or falling.
Do not connect an appliance which dis-
plays visible damage.
You must use a new hose kit to connect
the device to the water supply. Old hose
kits should not be reused. Check the hose
kit at regular intervals to ensure it can be
changed in time to prevent water dama-
ge.
Check that the pump cover is inserted and
fastened securely. Otherwise water can
leak from the machine and cause a slip-
ping or scalding hazard.

When operating the washing machine at
2000 m above sea level, it is absolutely
imperative to activate the tem pe rature
limiter to prevent the water from boiling
(see service instructions or ask the custo-
mer service and/ or retailer).
Observe when washing:
The machine is exclusively intended for
washing or wet cleaning and spinning of
all fabrics bearing a care label indicating
their suitability for these methods.
Do not leave children unattended near the
machine and do not let them play with it,
especially during the waiting phase of
start time preselection. If required activate
child lock (see chapter «Extended basic
settings»).
Keep pets away from the machine.
If there is a puddle on the floor near the
machine (hose rupture, leakage or similar),
wipe it dry and eliminate the cause (see
chapter «Problems»), otherwise slipping
hazard.
Do no place any objects on the top cover
of the machine: They might slip off and
fall to the floor during the spinning pro-
cess.
Only use detergents, washing agents and
other additives, which are intended for
use in household washing machines: sof-
teners, colouring and bleaching agents,
starch, etc. Only add laundry starch in the
final rinse (conditioner), because there is a
risk of explosion at other stages of the
wash.
Under no circumstances use any solvent-
based deter gents in the washing machine.
Textiles which contain inflammable
chemicals, solvent-based detergents, must
be rinsed well in clear water by hand be-
fore washing. There is a risk that parts of
the machine could be damaged and
poisonous vapour released. There is also a
risk of fire and explosion.
Before starting a wash programme make
sure that there is no foreign body in the
drum and the detergent drawer (coins,
nails, paper clips, etc.).
