Helpful hints and tips
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain
remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain; treat several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with
turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface
and dab the stain with your fingertips and a
cotton cloth.
Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each
garment label and the manufacturer’s washing
instructions. Sort the laundry as follows:
whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates,
woollens.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a
rust removing product used cold. Be careful
with rust stains which are not recent since the
cellulose structure will already have been
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with
acetone1), lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above,
then treat stains with methylated spirits. Treat
any residual marks with bleach.
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse
and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse.
Treat any residual marks with bleach.
Ink:depending on the type of ink, moisten the
fabric first with acetone1), then with acetic
acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics
with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover,
methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with
detergent paste.
Before loading the
laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together.
Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the
wash.
New coloured items may run in the first wash;
they should therefore be washed separately
the first time.
Make sure that no metal objects are
left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety
pins, pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners,
hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long
tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special
detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care. Remove
hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.
Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just
water and detergent. It is therefore advisable
to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For
dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
special detergent then rub in the soap and
water.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the
choice of detergent and use of the correct
quantities to avoid waste and protect the
environment.
1) do not use acetone on artificial silk
Download from Www.Somanuals.c1om3. All Manuals Search And Download.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities, can
upset the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
Quantity of detergent to
be used
The type and quantity of detergent will
depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree
of soiling and hardness of the water used.
Follow the product manufacturers’
instructions on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
All commonly available washing machine
detergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• you are washing a small load
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(60°C max) and woollens
• the laundry is lightly soiled
• large amounts of foam form during washing.
• liquid detergents, preferably for low
temperature wash programmes (60°C
max) for all types of fabric, or special for
woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the wash
programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
recommendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the
detergent dispenser drawer .
Degrees of water
hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on
hardness of the water in your area can be
obtained from the relevant water supply
company, or from your local authority. If the
water hardness degree is medium or high we
suggest you to add a water softener following
always the manufacturer’s instructions. When
the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the
quantity of the detergent.

Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is
a good idea to periodically use a water
softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder
manufacturer's instructions. This will help to
prevent the formation of lime deposits.

Warning! The machine should NOT
be placed on deep pile carpeting.
Level the washing machine by raising or
lowering the feet. The feet may be tight to
adjust as they incorporate a self locking nut,
but the machine MUST be level and stable. If
necessary, check the setting with a spirit level.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with
a spanner. Accurate levelling prevents
vibration, noise and displacement of the
machine during operation.
6. Fill the smaller upper hole and the two
large ones with the corresponding plastic
plug caps supplied in the bag containing
the instruction booklet.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if
mounted on a wooden floor. Sprung wooden
floors are particularly susceptible to vibration.
For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.
Positioning and levelling
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make
sure that air circulation around the machine is
not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that
the machine does not touch the wall or other
kitchen units.
Plumbing in
Your new washing machine has been designed
to be permanently plumbed in to your home’s
water supply and drainage system. However,
if this is not possible, it may be connected to
a suitable existing tap with the drain hose
discharging into a sink.
Caution! Never place cardboard,
wood or similar materials under the
machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor.
The appliance has an inlet hose, with female
3/4” BSP thread connector. If this connection
is not compatible with the plumbing of the
existing installation, a variety of connectors
are available from good hardware stores and
plumbers merchants to suit most domestic
plumbing. Any alteration to your existing
plumbing must be carried out by a competent
person, or qualified plumber.
If the floor is carpeted or covered with
crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid support
base under the feet to prevent noise, vibration
or displacement. The base should protrude a
few centimetres beyond the edges of the
machine.

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is
too short and you do not wish to move the
tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer
hose specially designed for this type of use.
Important! Do not place the inlet hose
downwards. Angle the hose to the left
or right depending on the position of
your water tap as indicated in the
picture.
Warning! Installation should
comply with local water
authority and building
regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be

connection direct from the rising
mains, you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water
storage system.
2. Connect the water inlet hose supplied
with the machine to a tap with a 3/4"
thread. Installation should comply with
local water authority and building
regulations’ requirements.
There should be a minimum vertical
distance of 5.02 m (16.5 ft) between

Problem
Possible cause/Solution
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is
redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen
several times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning
can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case,
redistribute the load manually and select the spin programme.
Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin:
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select
the spinning programme.
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor
ensures a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in
the drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.
The machine makes an
unusual noise:
No water is visible in the
drum:
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
