Margherita - Instructions for installation and use

Treat your machine well and it will provide

many years of trouble free service

Easy Care and Maintenance

Your washing machine is a reliable companion in life and on the job. It is just as important for you to

keep it in shape.

Margherita is a washing machine

designed to provide reliable

service over many years. A few

simple steps will help to prolong

its life and avoid problems. It is

advisable, to turn off water taps

when the machine is not to be

used, this protects the hoses, etc.

If the water in your area is too

hard, use a deliming product

(water is hard if it often leaves

whitish stains around taps or

drains, especially of bath tubs.

For more accurate information as

to the type of water in your

system, call the local water

works or a local plumber).

Pockets must always be emptied

removing even pins, badges and

any other hard object.

The washing machine exterior

should be cleaned with a rag

dipped in lukewarm water and

soap.

Never exaggerate with

doses.

Normal detergents already

contain deliming agents. Only if

the water is particularly hard,

that is, rich in lime content, do

we recommend the use of a

specific product at every wash.

A periodical wash cycle with a

dose of a deliming product,

without detergents or washing,

may prove useful.

Never use too much detergent or

additives because this could cau-

se an excess amount of foam,

scaling and possible damage to

the component parts of your

washing machine.

When in need, check the pump and the rubber hose.

Margherita comes equipped with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any cleaning or maintenance. Small objects

may accidentally fall into the pump: coins, hair clips, loose buttons and other small items. To avoid possible damage,

they are withheld in an accessible pre-chamber, situated at the lower end of the pump.

It is important to

wash the detergent

dispenser regularly.

To prevent dried

washing powder from

accumulating, place

the dispenser under

running water for a

few minutes.

Do not forget to empty all pockets: small objects can cause

damage to your friend Margherita.

Attention: Before attempting to examine this pre-chamber,

first ensure that the machine has finished its programme and

is empty. Unplug the machine, as with any maintenance.

To gain access gently ease down the top of the plinth panel

situated at the base of the machine, with a screwdriver etc,

to release it. Then ease the top edge forward to allow it to be

lifted clear (Fig. 1). Place a shallow dish or tray below the

cover of the pre-chamber to catch the small amount of water

present. Release the cover by turning anti-clockwise (Fig. 2).

Ensure that the cover is securely replaced.

Re-fit the plinth cover by inserting the hooks on its lower

edge into the slots and ease the top edge back into position.

The water inlet hose

Check the rubber hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately. When you use your washing

machine, water pressure is very strong and a cracked tube could easily split open.
