QUICK GUIDE TO ANTONIO PARREIRAS, 51/701

Welcome to Rio! This quick guide will show you some tips to help you operate the
apartment, making your stay more enjoyable and comfortable.
OVEN: The apartments oven is equipped with a safety device that prevents the gas
from escaping. To turn on the stove, turn the knob on the right to a high temperature and
press it down. You will hear the gas hissing. After that, press the star button and keep
holding the stove knob for 10-15 seconds and the flame should stay on. If the flame
turns off, repeat the procedure. This is not necessary for the cooktop, you just have to
turn the knobs you wish and press the star button the flame will quickly be on.
WASHING AND DRYING MACHINE: The machines instructions are in
Portuguese, but it is easy to use. The soap and softener goes into the drawer on the top
left of the machine (left is for soap, right is for softener). Do not exceed half of the soap
compartment, otherwise the display will show an error (E11), which means there is too
much foam in the washer (to resume the cycle if this error shows up, simply press the
Inicia/Pausa button again). To turn the machine on, press the Liga/Desliga button
the display will light up. To wash your regular clothes, press the Programas de
Lavagem button until the red light reaches the fourth preset, Meu jeito (it means my
way). You can use the other buttons to customize the program (Temperatura da gua
means water temperature; Tempo de lavagem means washing length; Nmero de
enxagues means rinsing cycles; Tempo de centrifugao means spinning length;
Velocidade de centrifugao means spinning speed). If you wish to dry your clothes,
press the Secar button before starting the program. To increase any of these options,
you just have to press its button (e.g. to increase the drying time from 2h to 3h, press the
Secar button). To decrease, you have to press the button until the option disappears
from the display and press it again until it reaches the desired setup (e.g. to decrease the
drying time from 2h to 1h, press the Secar button until the Secar option disappears from
the display and then press it again, until it reaches 1h). After you have selected and set
up your program, press the Inicia/pausa (start/pause) button to start (or to pause the
cycle, afterwards). If you only want to dry your clothes (without washing them), switch
the preset to Meu jeito and press the Tempo de Lavagem button repeatedly until all
of the options disappear, leaving the display blank. Then, press Secar, set up the time
and Inicia/pausa to start. The other available presets are: Branco encardido (grimy
white); Pesado (heavy); Roupa ntima (underwear); Cama e banho (bed and
bath); Rpido (quick); Ginstica (gym clothes); Delicado (delicate, gentle);
Desodorizar (deodorize); Autolimpeza (washers self cleaning).
POWER ADAPTORS: Brazil uses the three-pin power plug as a standard. However,
you can use our power adaptors for your devices. The adaptors are in the kitchens
cabinet last drawer. Before you leave, please put them back in that drawer.
HOT WATER: The apartment is equipped with hot water on the kitchen and
bathroom. To use it in the kitchen, simply use the left tap. The shower works the same.

On the bathroom tap, turn it to the left and pull it up. The water heater is in the
bathroom, but it works automatically, you dont have to do anything with him except
if the shower is too hot even if you turn on the cold water and lower the hot water. In
that case, set up the right knob (with the red and blue signs) as you wish. Red is hotter,
blue is colder.
FLUSH: To use the flush, you dont have to apply much pressure, simply hold down
the button until the water evacuates and then release it.

them. They are in the kitchen cabinet, below the sink.

input (if necessary). On the NET remote, you can switch the channels and volume. If the
TV is showing a no signal message even if the Cable Box is on (you can check this by
looking at its display if it is on, it shows the channel, if it is off, it shows the time),
press the Input or Source button on the Dynex Remote and look for the CABLE option
among the inputs. It should show the cable TV then. To use the DVD in the living
room, just look for its proper input.
