Helpful hints and tips  
General rules:  
Sorting out the laundry  
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.  
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and  
the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry  
as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, wool-  
lens.  
Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use  
of water and energy.  
Temperatures  
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.  
for normally soiled white cottons

and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, ta-

The following weights are indicative:

ments (e.g. shirts, night dresses,  
pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or syn-  
thetic fibres and for lightly soiled  
white cotton (e.g. underwear)

100 g  
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.  
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 gar-  
ment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips  
and a cotton cloth.  
Maximum loads  
Recommended loads are indicated in the washing pro-  
gramme charts.

been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.  
Prewash detergent is to be added straight into the  
drum  
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast  
coloureds only).  
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.  
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains  
with methylated spirits. Treat any residual marks with  
bleach.  
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with  
acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks  
with bleach.  
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash  
must be selected. Pour the liquid detergent into the de-  
tergent compartment immediately before you start the  
programme.  
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which  
allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.  
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on  
quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in  
the detergent dispenser drawer .

Degrees of water hardness  
Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first

area can be obtained from the relevant water supply com-  
pany, or from your local authority.

with acetone , then with acetic acid; treat any residual  
marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thor-  
oughly.  
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits  
or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.  
A water softener must be added when water has a  
medium-high degree of hardness (from degree of  
hardness II). Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The  
quantity of detergent can then always be adjusted to de-  
gree of hardness I (= soft).  
Detergents and additives  
Good washing results also depend on the choice of de-  
tergent 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:

Problem  
Possible cause/Solution  
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.  
• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.  
• Use commercial products to treat the stubborn stains.  
The correct temperature was not selected.  
Unsatisfactory washing results:  
• Check if you have selected the correct temperature.  
Excessive laundry load.  
• Reduce the laundry load.  
The programme is still running.  
• Wait the end of washing cycle.  
The door lock has not been released.  
• Wait until the indicator light for door locked has gone out.  
There is water in the drum.  
The door will not open:  
• 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 laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.  
The machine vibrates is noisy:  
• 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 load is too small.  
• Add moreitems, redistribute the load manually and then selectthe spinning  
programme.  
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  
Lifting the machine  
Be careful when lifting the machine. Incorrect methods of  
lifting can cause physical injuries and also increase the  
risk of damage to the machine. Open the door and take  
hold of the top inside of the door opening. You can also  
lift the machine by gripping the rear overhang of the top.

Unpacking  
When supplied the washing machine is packed using a  
number of locking devices/packing pieces to prevent  
drum and motor from damage in transit All transit bolts  
and packing must be removed before using the appliance.  
You are advised to keep all transit devices so that they  
can be refitted if the machine ever has to be transported

some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush  
out any debris that may have collected  
Caution! Do not use the hose from your previous  
appliance to connect to water supply.  
Connect the hose to a tap  
with a 3/4” thread. Always  
use the hose supplied with  
the appliance.  
With a suitable spanner unscrew and remove the three  
screws and their spacers on machine's rear.  
The three holes must then  
be pluggedwith the plastic  
plug caps supplied in the  
bag containing the in-  
struction booklet, which  
can be found inside the  
drum.  
The machine end of the in-  
let hose can be turned in  
any direction. Set the hose  
correctly by loosening the  
ring nut. After positioning  
the inlet hose, be sure to  
tighten the ring nut again  
to prevent leaks.  
Positioning  
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air  
circulation around the machine is not impeded bycarpets,  
rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall  
or furniture. Level the washing machine by raising or  
lowering the two front feet. If necessary, check the setting  
with a spirit level. Any necessary adjustment can be made  
with a spanner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration,  
noise and displacement of the machine during operation.  
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.  
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.  
Caution! Never place cardboard, wood or similar  
materials under the machine to compensate for any  
unevenness in the floor.  
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.  
Water inlet

The hose must not be stickedinto the standpipe more than  
50 mm and it has to be fixed in this position. The drain  
hose must not be kinked.  
The drain hose can be extended up to total 3,5 m. For the  
extension piece use a hose with an internal diameter at  
least as large as that of the machine's own hose. Use a  
suitable hose connector.  
650-800 mm  
The drain hose can be connected directly into the pipe  
(e.g. beneath a washtub or sink), above the water trap. The  
drain hose must be arranged so that some part of it’s  
length is routed up to a level corresponding to the top  
edge of the tub and fixed in place there.  
Information on the electrical connection is given on the  
rating plate on the inner edge of the appliance door.  
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take  
the maximum load required, also taking into account any  
other appliances in use.  
Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not less than 65  
cm and not more than 80 cm.  
Their must be an air gap around and below the end of  
drain hose. This means that the internal diameter of the  
standpipe must be larger than the outer diameter of the  
hose.  
Caution! Connect the machine to an earthed socket.  
Caution! The manufacturer does not accept any  
responsibility for damage or injury through failure  
to comply with the above safety precaution.
