General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no
more than one third full.

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.
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.
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 the fingertips and a cotton cloth.
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Treat curtains with special care. Remove
hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.

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 have already been
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with
acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth
and dab the stain.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of the
dispenser drawer before starting the wash
programme.
If using concentrated powder or liquid
detergents, a programme without prewash
must be selected.

be poured into the compartment marked
before starting the wash programme.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
recommendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the
detergent dispenser drawer.
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 acetone (*), 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.
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.
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.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
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. Although biodegradable,
detergents contain substances which, in large
quantities, can upset the delicate balance of
nature.
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions
on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
● you are washing a small load,
● the laundry is lightly soiled,
● large amounts of foam form during washing.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine
detergents may be used in this appliance:

Malfunction
Possible Cause / Solution
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
• Wait about 2 minute.
The door will not open:
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the
water.
The transit bolts and packing have not been
removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted.
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
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 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
Machines based on modern technology operate very
economically using very little water without affecting
performance.
No water is visible in the drum
If you are unable to identify or solve the
problem, contact our service centre.
Before telephoning, make a note of the model,
serial number and purchase date of your
machine: the Service Centre will require this
information.

Installation instruction
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make
Transit security bars
Before starting the machine up, the transport
security bars must be removed as follows:
You are advised to keep all the transport
security bars. In case the appliance has to be
transported again.
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. Level the washing machine by
raising or lowering the feet. Once in the right
position fix the feet by pushing the nuts
against the base of the case. The feet may be
tight to adjust as they incorporate but the
machine MUST be level and stable.
If necessary, check the setting with a spirit
level.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise
and displacement of the machine during
operation.Never place cardboard, wood or
similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if
mounted on a wooden floor.
1. Unscrew and remove the three rear screws
by means of a key.
Make sure the hoses are not squashed.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly
susceptible to vibration. For advice, consult a
builder. If possible, always place the machine
on a solid floor.
2. Open the porthole and remove the
polystyrene block fitted with adhesive tape
on the door seal.
3. Place the machine in an upright position
and remove the three plastic bolts.
5. Plug the 3 holes with the plastic plugs
which you can find in the envelope
containing the instruction booklet.

Water inlet
The appliance must be connected to a cold
water supply.
There should be a COLD WATER tap near the
washing machine with a screwing on
connection pipe of 3/4" for the water supply, a
sink, a wash basin or a drainage system in the
wall.
Previously check if:
- it is not a hot water tap.
- the running water is clean. If not, run off a
reasonable amount of water to flush out any
debris that may have collected in the pipes.
Have the permanent drainage system in the
wall checked by a plumber.
A minimum water pressure of 0.05 MPa (0.5
bar) is required for safe operation of the
appliance.
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
(16.5 ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the
bottom of the water storage tank.
Electrical connection
1. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread. Always use the hose supplied with
the appliance. 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.
Any electrical work required to install this
appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.
WARNING!
This appliance must be earthed.
The manufacturer declines any liability
should this safety measure not be
observed.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity
supply voltage is the same as that indicated
on the appliance’s rating plate.
NOTE
Installation should
comply with local
water authority and
building regulations’
requirements.
IMPORTANT!
Information on the electrical connection is
given on the rating plate on the inner edge
of the appliance door.
2. If necessary turn the hose adequately by
unscrewing the nut at the rear of the
appliance. Now tighten the nut anew to
avoid leaks. (Open the tap and assure that
it does not leak and close it again.)
The appliance is supplied with a 13amp plug
fitted. In the event of having to change the
fuse in the plug supplied, a 13amp ASTA
approved (BS1363/A) fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any
reason, proceed as described below.
