Once you have finished using the machine, you are
advised to unplug it and turn off the water taps.
To avoid an excessive and damaging amount of
lather when washing net curtains, it is advisable to
wash large curtains singularly and take extra care
when measuring the detergent.
Man’s shirt
Apron
Should an excess of lather accidentally occur, switch
off the machine, select the spin programme which is
preceded by a drain cycle, to remove the lather and
then start the wash again.
■
■
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with
small ones.
■
■
■
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric,
colour-fastness and how dirty it is.
Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may
unravel.
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws
etc). as these could damage the drain pump.
■
■
■
When washing curtains, remove the hooks.
Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.
It is essential to wash new coloured items separately
when washing for the first time.
■
When washing fabrics requiring different wash
temperatures together, always select the lowest
temperature.
■
■
■
White items should not be washed with coloured
items.
Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)
should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.
Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic
washing machines.
■
■
Use the correct quantities of detergent.
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small
quantities.
■
Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care
and kept out of reach of children.

Delicate Item s
Which d et ergent t o u se?....
When washing delicates such as woollens, you should
use a product which is specially designed to care for
fine fabrics. Dreft Automatic is suitable for woollens
and other delicates.
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your
appliance, it is important to use the right detergent in
your everyday wash, and only detergents recommended
for use in automatic machines.
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and
household textiles and to make them last longer you
should use different types of detergent for different
washes, whether for whites, colours or delicates.
Whites
We recommend the Ariel product range which is
biological and designed to provide excellent cleaning
and stain removal even at low temperatures.
Laundry Bleach
For additional stain removal you may wish to use a
product such as Ace Gentle Bleach which is used in
addition to your chosen detergent. Ace is suitable for all
washable fabrics including silks, woollens and
coloureds.
Non Biological
If you prefer to use a non biological detergent, which
does not contain enzymes we recommend Fairy. Fairy
provides good cleaning and stain removal.
Coloureds
For coloured items you should use a detergent which is
designed to clean while maintaining the original colour.
Ariel Color does not contain bleach and therefore helps
to preserve colours.

Bounce conditioning sheets for use in a tumble dryer.
We recommend the conditioning sheets are pinned
(using a safety pin) to an article of laundry and placed in
the tumble dryer.
And in w hich fo r m ?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they
are also available in different forms. Whether you
choose a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form
is down to personal choice.
Traditional Powders
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do
not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.
Traditional Liquids
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of
the detergent drawer marked with the symbol
, start
the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in
the dispenser drawer.
How m u ch d et ergent and fab r ic
so ft ener ?
The amount to be used depends on:
the load:
Alternatively the detergent is measured into the specially
designed dosing device* which should be placed on top
of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.
Com pact Powders and Liquids
if the detergent manufacturer does not make any
specification for small loads, use a third less for half
loads, and for very small loads only use half of the
amount of washing powder recommended for a full
load.
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also
known) are available in liquid or powder form, and
generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the
dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent
into the specially designed dosing device* which should
be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
the degree of soiling of the washing:
for only lightly soiled washing use less washing
powder. Follow the instructions of the detergent
manufacturer.
the water hardness:
*If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed
before carrying out a drying programme.
the harder the water, the higher the dosage!
Using a wat er so ft ening agent
In hard water areas, the use of a water softening agent
can reduce the amount of detergent necessary. See
manufacturers recommendations.
Fabric Conditioners
These are ideal for improving “softness”, and also
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing easier.
They are available in two types:
For example Lenor liquid fabric softener, for use in the
washing machine/washer dryer. The liquid fabric
softener should be poured into the compartment marked
with the symbol
.
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions and never
exceed the MAX level.

For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for dispensing detergents and liquid additives.Once the dispenser has
been filled, close it by pushing it in gently. This is particularly important if you are using fabric conditioner to avoid
the conditioner entering the machine prematurely.
When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme, place the detergent into the correct compartment in the
dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried
out you must DISCONNECT the appliance
from the electricity supply
Descaling
The water we normally use contains lime. It is a good
idea to periodically run a high temperature wash with
detergent or use a descaler in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and according to
the manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent
the formation of lime deposits.
Aft er each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to
preserve the door seal.
Ex t er nal cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Clean the control panel using a damp cloth only.
Do not use abrasives
Cleaning t he d isp enser d rawer
From time to time the washing powder and additive
dispenser drawer should be cleaned.
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards
and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove
any traces of accumulated powder.
AL033
AL021
Cleaning t he d rawer recess
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean
the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is
removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme for a

Cleaning t he filt er
The water drain filter
A clean filter is important for the correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every
washing programme.
Open the filter door and place a container underneath to
catch any spillage. If the filter is blocked and the
machine is unable to drain you will need to drain the
water manually from the machine at this stage. To do
this, unhook the drain hose from the standpipe or sink
and hold the end of the hose over a bowl on the floor.
The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When
the bowl is full, hook the hose back up and empty the
bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing
out.
AL012
AL015
Unscrew and remove the filter.
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.
Replace the filter turning now clockwise and tighten it.
P0040
AL017
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the filter.
Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, always
wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being
able to remove it.
The water inlet filters
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filters may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses.
Remove and clean the filters using a hard bristle brush.
Replace the filters and tighten up the inlet hoses.
P0090
The d anger s o f freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
Maint enance Wash
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to
get a build up of residues inside the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed
on a regular basis.
■
Turn off the water taps.
■
Unscrew the inlet hoses.
■
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
To run a maintenance wash:
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet
hose in a bowl. Run the draining programme.
* The drum should be empty of laundry.
* Select the hottest cotton wash program.
* Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder
(such as Ariel Futur).
■
Disconnect the appliance.
■
Screw the inlet hoses and reposition the drain hose.
■
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Som ething Not Working
Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out
an engineer. Before contacting your Tricity Bendix Service Force Centre, please carry out the checks listed below.
Important: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or installation
a charge will be made even if the appliance is in guarantee.
Sym ptom
Possible causes
■
The machine does not start
The door has not been closed.
The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket.
There is no current at the socket
The main fuse has blown.
The selector dial is not correctly positioned and pulled out
No water is entering the machine (see: the machine does not fill)
■
■
■
■
■
■
The machine does not fill
Ensure the water taps are open and the water supply has not been
disconnected
The filter in the inlet hoses are blocked.
The inlet hoses may be squashed or kinked.
The water pressure is too low
■
■
■
■
The machine fills then empties
immediately
The end of the drain hose is too low.
The end of the drain hose is submerged in water.
There is no vent in the end of the drain hose.
■
■
■
The machine does not empty and/or
does not spin
The drain hose may be squashed or kinked
You have selected a gentle wash cycle.
The drain filter may be blocked
The drain hose extension is not correct. Follow the instructions for
■
■
■
connecting to the waste.
The drainage system pipes are blocked.
■
■
There is water on the floor
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates too
much foam).
■
Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It
is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to
see if it is damp.
The drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned.
The detergent dispenser drawer or recess is clogged.
The drainage system pipes are blocked.
■
■
■
■
Unsatisfactory washing results
The machine vibrates or is noisy
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. An
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and
causes lime scale to form.
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing
The correct temperature to suit the wash programme has not been
■
■
selected.
■
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.
■
The internal packing has not been removed.
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.
The machine is not level.
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.
There is very little laundry in the drum.
The machine is overloaded

Sym ptom
Possible causes
■
The door will not open
The programme is still running.
The door lock has not yet released
The water level in the drum is too high or the machine is heating.
■
■
■
Spinning starts late or the machine
does not spin
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 load is evenly distributed and spinning can resume
eventually at a lower speed, if the wash load is still not sufficiently
balanced distributed, after 10 minutes, the machine will not spin. In this
case, redistribute the load manually and reselect the spin programme.
■
The machine makes an unusual
noise
The noise produced when spinning may differ from your previous
washing machine, which is due to the modern drive system. 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.
■
No water is visible in the drum
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
If after the above checks, there is still a fault , call your
local Tricity Bendix Service Force Centre.

Po sit io ning
Your new Tricity Bendix 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 suitable existing
taps, with the drain hose discharging into the sink.
The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold, with
female 3/4” BSP thread connectors. 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 alterations to your
existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent
person, or qualified plumber.
COLD WATER SUPPLY
HOT WATER SUPPLY
Wat er inlet
The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded,
blue for cold and red for hot.
Before connecting the hoses, be sure to fit the black
washers supplied as per diagram.
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two
hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a ‘Y’
connection piece.
Installation should comply with local water authority
and building regulation requirements.
A
The appliance must be given a separate cold water
supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a single
outlet water heater or a booster pump. A minimum
water pressure of 7psi is required for safe operation of
the appliance.
AL013
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct
from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water storage system.
There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m (16
1/2ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of
the tank.
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water
supply from the hot water cylinder if the height between
the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the cold water
storage cistern (not between the appliance and the hot
water cylinder) is at least 2.74m (9ft).
Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts. After
positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten the ring
nuts again to prevent leaks.

Wat er d rainage
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed
into your home's water supply and drainage system.
3 pin
The appliance drain hose should hook (use the plastic
“U-piece” supplied) into a standpipe with an internal
diameter of approximately 38mm (see diagram) thus
ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose
and standpipe.
P1039
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top of
the curve in the hose end is no more than 90cm (35.4'')
and no less than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level. The
upright standpipe should have a minimum length of
30cm (12'') from the bottom of the elbow to the top of
the pipe (see diagram).

38 mm.(1/2") diameter
standpipe
P1040
Make sure that it is designed in such a way, that the end
of the drain hose cannot be covered with water.
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 3
metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is
available from your local Service Force Centre.
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of
18mm.
If you intend the drain hose to empty into a sink, make
sure that the sink is empty and the plug hose is not
blocked. Use the plastic “U-piece” supplied.

Levelling
Level the washing machine by loosening or tightening
the feet. Once in the right position fix the feet by
pushing the nuts against the base of the case.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and
displacement of the machine during operation. After
levelling the machine, secure the feet by tightening the
ring nuts with the aid of a screwdriver.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a
wooden floor.
P0254
P0509
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.
Sp ecial co nd it io ns
If the floor is carpeted with a deep-pile carpet 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.
Warning
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile
carpeting.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.
In t he int erest o f t he
enviro nm ent
Washing machines and dishwashers should be
connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water will
then be taken to a sewage works for treatment before
being discharged safely into a river.
SHOWER
It is essential that these appliances are not connected to
the surface water drainage system as this water is
discharged directly into a river or stream and may cause
pollution.

you install a double pole switch between the appliance
and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap
of 3 mm between the switch contacts and of a type
suitable for the required load in compliance with the
current electrical regulations.

Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of
safely.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
