Your New Washer-Dryer  
Your new washer-dryer meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with  
low water, energy and detergent consumption.  
It is gentle with your laundry, simple to use and easy to care for.  
The special wool programme with its new delicate

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.  
Ecological hints  
To save water and energy and help protect the  
environment, we recommend that you follow these  
hints:  
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised  
disposal sites for your old appliance.  
The symbol  
on the product or on its packaging  
indicates that this product may not be treated as  
household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to  
the applicable 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  
city office, 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.  
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, 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".

SPIN is selected for cotton items (programmes A - B  
- C - D), the machine will perform an extra rinse (4  
instead of 3).  
RINSE HOLD”: The water of the last rinse is not  
emptied out to prevent any creasing in the clothes if  
they are left damp in the drum.  
Cooling phase  
To allow the laundry to cool down, a cooling phase  
starts automatically 10 minutes before the end of drying  
and this phase must in no circumstances be reduced or  
interrupted.  
If you select the RINSE HOLD option in an automatic  
washing & drying programme the machine will not  
dry.  
We recommend you not to select a lower spin speed  
so as to avoid a too long drying time when carrying  
out the automatic washing & drying programme.  
3 Drying indicator light  
This light illuminates when the machine is drying.  
The spin speeds on the dial refer to cotton  
programmes.  
For mixed fabrics and wool, position 1200

Washing and Drying Hints  
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the

difficult to remove and should be treated before  
washing with specific products, which can be found  
in most household shops. In some cases it may help  
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-  
soak product or biological detergent.  
The average weights of the most common items are  
listed below as a guide:  
1000g = 1 kg  
If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin  
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left  
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not  
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a  
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to  
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.  
Do not leave the damp laundry load in a heap too  
long before drying.  
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.  
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.

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.  
Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials  
similar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried;  
they represent a fire hazard.  
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.  
When washing fabrics requiring different wash  
temperatures together, always select the lowest  
temperature.  
For drying, follow the indications given on the  
manufacturer’s labels.  
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.  
Drying at high temperature  
Drying at reduced temperature  
Do not tumble dry  
Important:  
Use the correct quantities of detergent.  
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small  
quantities.  
As a dryer, the machine works on the condensation  
principle.  
Therefore, the water taps 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.  
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.  
* 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 coloureds.  
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.

Some programmes when selected may start with a short drain. This is quite normal and not a fault with the appliance.  
When a programme is selected, the selector dial will advance to the water filling position. E.g. Programme B is  
selected, there is a short drain. The appliance takes in water and the selector will appear to move to the C position.  
The appliance will have memorised the programme selected, in this case B, and will run the correct programme  
even though the selector dial appears to be at position C.  
We recommend that you do not switch the appliance off and on during its operation. This would modify the  
memorised programme in progress with unsatisfactory washing results.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you  
must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity  
supply.  
Descaling  
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good  
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the  
C0067  
C0066  
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.  
After each wash  
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent  
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.  
C0068  
P1086  
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to  
preserve the door seal.  
Cleaning the drawer 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  
without any clothes in the drum.  
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.  
To run a maintenance wash:  
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).  
P0038  
External cleaning  
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap  
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.  
Cleaning the filter  
The water drain filter  
A clean filter is important for the correct operating of  
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every  
washing programme.  
Cleaning the dispenser drawer  
The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer  
should be cleaned regularly.  
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.  
Open the filter door and place a container underneath to  
catch any spillage.  
To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive  
compartment should be removed.  
P0011  
18  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
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.  
Clean the filters using a hard bristle brush.  
Tighten up the inlet hoses.  
Unscrew and remove the filter.  
P1090  
The dangers of freezing  
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,  
certain precautions should be taken.  
Turn off the water taps.  
Unscrew the inlet hoses.  
P0133  
P0132  
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and  
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet  
hoses in a bowl. Run the draining programme.  
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.  
Disconnect the appliance.  
Screw the inlet hoses and reposition the drain hose.  
When you intend to start the machine again, make  
sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.  
P0040  
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 them from time to  
time.  
Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses.

Something 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 local 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 under guarantee.  
Symptom  
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 supply at the socket  
The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown.  
The selector dial is not correctly positioned.  
The On-Off button has not been depressed.  
The machine does not fill  
Ensure the water taps are open.  
The filters in the inlet hoses are blocked.  
The inlet hoses may be squashed or kinked.  
The door has not been closed.  
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.  
The RINSE HOLD or NO SPIN option has been selected.  
The drain filter may be blocked.  
The drain hose extension, if fitted, is not correct. Follow the  
instructions for connecting to the waste.  
The drainage system pipes are blocked.  
The wash load is unbalanced: redistribute the clothes inside the drum to  
allow the machine to spin.  
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(s) 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  
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 wash programme has not been selected.  
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.  
The machine vibrates when spinning  
The internal packing has not been removed.  
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.  
The machine is not stable and level (check diagonally).  
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.  
20  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Symptom  
Possible causes  
The programme is still running.  
The door lock has not yet released.  
The door will not open  
Water in the tub: the door cannot be opened if water is present in the tub.  
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 unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume.  
If, after 20 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.  
The machine makes an unusual  
noise  
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.  
No water is visible in the drum  
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically  
using very little water without affecting performance.  
The machine does not dry or does  
not dry properly  
The drying time has not been selected  
The water taps are not turned on  
The drain filter is clogged  
The machine is overloaded  
The selected drying time/section is not suitable for the laundry or a  
lower spin speed has been selected.

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 suitable existing taps with the  
drain hose discharging into a 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 alteration to your  
existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent  
person, or qualified plumber.

Water inlet  
The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded,  
blue for cold and red for hot.  
Connect the hose supplied with the machine to a tap  
with a 3/4” thread.  
Water drainage  
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed  
into your home's drainage system using one of the  
following methods.  
1. Into a drainage standpipe.  
Do not use previously used hoses.  
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using  
the “U” piece” supplied.  
U” piece  
P1088  
supplied  
P1199  
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two  
hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a «Y»  
connection piece.  
Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should  
have an internal diameter of approximately 38mm thus  
ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose  
and standpipe.  
Installation should comply with local water authority  
and building regulations’ requirements.  
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 0.05 MPa (0.48) bar is required for  
safe operation of the appliance.  
38 mm (11.2”)  
standpipe  
diameter  
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.  
P1074  
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top of  
the standpipe is no more than 90cm (35.4'') and no less  
than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level.  
There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water  
supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74  
metres (9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water  
storage tank and the bottom of the hot water cylinder.  
3 pin  
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.  
P1039  
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4  
metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is

2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.  
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.  
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and  
displacement of the machine during operation.  
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove  
any blanking plug that may be in place.  
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.  
Special conditions  
P1197  
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.  
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a  
clip if required, ensure a loop is formed in the drain  
hose (see diagram) to prevent waste from the sink  
entering the washing machine.  
Warning  
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile  
carpeting.  
Note  
Loop  
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily
