WARNINGS
It is important that this instruction book be kept with the appliance for future reference. If you sell or
give the appliance away, make sure that the book is passed to the new owners so that they can
familiarise themselves with its operation and relevant warnings.
The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully
before installing or using the appliance.
I
Do not overload the appliance. Follow the
General warnings
instructions in the instruction book.

When unpacking the appliance, check that it
is not damaged. If in doubt, do not use it and
contact the Service Centre.
This appliance is designed to be used by
adults. Children must not be allowed to touch
the controls or play with the product.
During high temperature washing and drying
cycles the glass door becomes very hot. Do
not touch it.
I
Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects
such as coins, safety pins, pins and screws
can cause extensive damage.
Do not machine wash garments saturated
with petroleum, methylated spirits,
trichlorethylene, etc. If such fluids have been
used to remove stains prior to washing, wait
until they have completely evaporated from
the fabric before placing garments in the
appliance.
Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in
a cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them
getting trapped between the drum and the
tub.
Use only the recommended quantities of fabric
softener. An excessive amount could damage
the laundry.
Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the
appliance is not in use. This preserves the
door seal and prevents the formation of
musty smells.
Always check that water has emptied out
before opening the door. If not, drain the
water following the instructions in the

The other end of the inlet hose which connects
to the machine can be turned in any direction.
Simply loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and
retighten the fitting, making sure there are no
water leaks.
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.
P1088
P0021
Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in
three ways:
Hooked over the edge of a sink using the
plastic hose guide supplied with the
machine. In this case, make sure the end
cannot come unhooked when the machine is
emptying.
This could be done by tying it to the tap with a
piece of string or attaching it to the wall.
In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must
be above the trap so that the bend is at least 60
cm above the ground.
P0022
Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not
less than 60 cm and not more than 90 cm.
The end of the drain hose must always be
ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the drain
pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of
the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along
the floor; only the part near the drainage point
must be raised.

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.
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.
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).
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
programme charts.
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites
and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone
(*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the
stain.
General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then
treat stains with methylated spirits. Remove any
residual marks from white fabrics with bleach.
Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more
than one third full.
80

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.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
recommendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent
dispenser drawer.
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, or from your
local authority.
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions
on quantities to use.
(*) 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.
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:
– powder detergents for all types of fabric,
– powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C
max) and woollens,
Use less detergent if:
– you are washing a small load
– the laundry is lightly soiled
– large amounts of foam form during washing.

detergents, a programme without prewash must
be selected.
The washing machine incorporates a
recirculation system which allows an optimal use
of the concentrated detergent.

All laundry to be dried must be thoroughly
spun. The higher the spin speed, the lower
the power consumption and the shorter the
drying time.

MAINTENANCE
1. Bodywork
Clean the outside of the machine with warm
water and a neutral, non-abrasive household
detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry with a
soft cloth.
Important: do not use methylated spirits,
solvents or similar products to clean the
bodywork.
2. Detergent dispenser drawer
After a while, detergents and fabric softeners
leave deposits in the drawer.
Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it
under a running tap. To remove the drawer from
the machine, press the button in the rear left-
hand corner.

4. Water inlet filter
If you notice that the machine is taking longer to
fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is
not blocked.
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the hose from the tap.
Clean the filter with a stiff brush.
Screw the hose back onto the tap.
P1090
5. Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged (outlet pump is
blocked, filter or outlet hose are clogged),
proceed as follows to empty out the machine:
I
pull out the plug from the power socket;
I
close the water tap;
I
if necessary, wait until the water has cooled
down;
I
place a bowl on the floor;
I
put the outlet hose end into the bowl and let
the water come out.
Should it not be possible to have access to the
outlet hose because, for example, the appliance
is built in the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the
outlet filter after placing a bowl on the floor, to let
the water come out slowly.
At the end screw the filter again.
6. Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as
follows:
I
Close the water tap and unscrew the water
inlet hose from the tap.
I
Place the end of the outlet hose and that of
the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor.
I
Select programme Q and run it until the
machine stops.
I
Remove the plug from the socket.
I
Screw the water inlet hose back on and put
the outlet hose back in its place.
By doing this, any water remaining in the
machine is removed, avoiding the formation of
ice and, consequently, breakage of the affected
parts.
When you use the machine again, make sure
that the ambient temperature is above 0°C.

SOMETHING NOT WORKING?
Problems which you can resolve yourself
Problem
Possible cause

positioned correctly and the ON/OFF button
depressed.
I Check that the water tap is open.
I Check that water is coming out of the tap.
I
The machine does not fill:
I Check that the inlet hose is not squashed or
kinked.
I Check that the filter in the inlet hose is not
blocked.
I Check that the door is closed.
I The end of the drain hose is too low. Refer to
relevant paragraph in “water drainage”
section.
I
I
The machine fills then empties
immediately:
I Check that the drain hose is not squashed or
The machine does not empty
and/or does not spin:
kinked.
I A programme which stops with water in drum
has been selected.
I Check that the laundry is evenly distributed in
the drum.
I Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent
I
There is water on the floor:
(creates too much foam) has been used.
I 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.
I Check that the drain hose is not damaged.
I Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent
I
Unsatisfactory washing results:
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
has been used.
I Stubborn stains have not been treated prior
to washing.

I
have been removed.

I The programme is still running.
I The door lock has not been released.
I
The door will not open:
I A programme which stops with water in drum
has been selected.
I
The electronic unbalance detection device
I
Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin:
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 reselect
the spin programme.
I The machine is fitted with a commutator
motor which makes an unusual noise
compared with other traditional machines.
This motor enables a softer start to the spin
and controls the increase in spin speed
better. In this way, machine performance is
improved.
I
The machine makes an unusual
noise:
I The machine, which is the result of modern
technology, runs in a very economical way
with low water consumption. Performance is
nevertheless excellent.
I
I
Water is not visible in the
machine:
I The drying time has not been selected.
I The tap is closed.
The machine does not dry:
I The drain filter is blocked.
I A suitable drying time in the correct sector
has not been selected.
