are
●
Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C
before draining, with the 95°C programme. This
reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent
creasing.
●
●
Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area
for re-cycling this appliance.
●
●
The two drying programmes will give your wash
that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door lock device
unusable to prevent young children from being
trapped inside.
The ECO VALVE allows total use of detergent and
reduces water consumption so saving energy.
●
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
Ecological hints
To save water and energy and help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
hints:
The symbol
on the product or on its packaging
indicates that this product may not be treated as
household waste. Instead it should be taken to the
appropriate collection point for the recycling of
electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this
product is disposed of correctly, you will help
prevent potential negative consequences for the
environment and human health, which could
otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling
of this product. For more detailed information about
recycling of this product, please contact your local
council, your household waste disposal service or the
shop where you purchased the product.
●
Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the
hardness of your water supply, the amount of
laundry and the degree of soiling.
●
Select the “Quick” wash option for lightly soiled
laundry.
●
A programme without prewash is sufficient for
normally soiled laundry.
●
Try to load the maximum drying capacity of the
machine as small loads are uneconomical.
●
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin
speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the
shorter the drying times.
How do we help to protect the environment?
We use recycled paper!
Important
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.
If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, it is because it is not evenly
distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the
wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something
Not Working".

Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy
items such as towels as these can attract the fluff.
If you overdry the laundry, besides wasting energy,
any subsequent ironing may become more difficult
because the fabric could be heavily crumpled.

●
●
Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished
drying.
To avoid a static charge when drying is completed,
use either a fabric softener when you are washing the
laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for
tumble dryers.
●
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with
small ones.
●
Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains,
woollen and silk, garments with metal inserts, nylon
stockings, bulky garments such as anoraks,
bedcovers, quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must not
be machine dried.
●
●
●
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.
●
●
Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials
similar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried;
they represent a fire hazard.
●
●
●
When washing curtains, remove the hooks.
Also, fabrics containing residues of setting lotions or
hair sprays, nail solvents or similar solutions must
not be machine dried in order to avoid the formation
of harmful vapours.
Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.
It is essential to wash new coloured items separately
when washing for the first time.
●
●
For drying, follow the indications given on the
manufacturer’s labels.
When washing fabrics requiring different wash
temperatures together, always select the lowest
temperature.
May be tumble dried
●
●
●
White items should not be washed with coloured
items.
Drying at high temperature
Drying at reduced temperature
Do not tumble dry
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.
Important:
As a dryer, the machine works on the condensation
principle.
●
●
Use the correct quantities of detergent.
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small
quantities.
Therefore, the water tap must be open and the
drain hose must drain water into a sink or into
the drain pipe, even during the drying cycle.
●
Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care
and kept out of reach of children.

And in which form?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they
are also available in different forms. Whether you chose
a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is
your own personal choice.
Which detergent?....
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.
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
the machine immediately upon placing the
detergent in the dispenser drawer.
WHITES
We recommend the Ariel product
range which is biological and
designed to provide excellent
cleaning and stain removal even
at low temperatures.
, start
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.
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.
COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS
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.
COLOURS
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.
* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed
before carrying out a drying programme.
DELICATE ITEMS
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:
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.
For example Lenor liquid fabric
softener, for use in the washing
machine/washer dryer. The
liquid fabric softener should be
poured into the compartment
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 colours.
marked with the symbol
.
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage
instructions and never exceed the
MAX level.
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.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you
must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity
supply.
Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of
accumulated powder.
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.
C0067
C0066
To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment
should be removed.
After 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.
Maintenance 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.
C0068
P1086
Cleaning the drawer recess
To run a maintenance wash:
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
without any clothes in the drum.
●
The drum should be empty of laundry.
●
Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
●
Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a
powder (such as Ariel Futur).
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with a
solution of mild washing up liquid and water and then
dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer
P0038
The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer
should be cleaned regularly.
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards
and by pulling it out.

• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and
place the latter back in its seat.
Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected if
• the machine does not empty and/or spin
• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining
due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking
the pump.
Proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the appliance.
• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.
• Open the pump door.
P1117
• Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the pump.
Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle,
always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle,
and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is
securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
P1114
• Place a container close to the pump to collect any
spillage.
• Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the
container and remove its cap.
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump
cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry
up spillage of water when removing the cover.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Tighten up the inlet hose.
P1115
• Remove any objects from the pump impeller by
rotating it.
P1090

The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
●
Turn off the water tap.
●
Unscrew the inlet hose.
●
Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and
that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor
and let water drain out.
●
Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition
the emergency emptying hose after having put the
cap on again.
●
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.
Important!
Every time you drain the water through the emergency
emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water into the
main wash compartment of the detergent drawer and
then run the drain programme. This will activate the
ECO valve avoiding that part of the detergent remains
unused at next washing.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to
empty out the machine:
• pull out the plug from the power socket;
• close the water tap;
• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;
• open the pump door;
• place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the
emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its
cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose.
Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;
• clean the pump if necessary as previously described;
• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after
having plugged it;
• screw the pump cover again and close the door.

reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before the
unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after a few

redistribute the load manually and select the spin programme.
