Warnings
The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.
Installation
•All internal packing must be removed before using the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective transit devices are not removed or are not completely removed. Refer to the relevant paragraph in the instruction book.
•Any electrical work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
•Any plumbing work required to install this appliance must be carried out by a qualified plumber.
•After having installed the machine, check that it is not standing on its electrical supply cable.
•If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor, ensure that air can circulate freely between the feet and the floor.
Use
•This appliance is designed for domestic use. It must not be used for purposes other than those for which it was designed.
•Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. Follow the instructions on each garment label.
•Do not overload the appliance. Follow the instructions in the instruction book.
•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 instruction book.
•Always unplug the appliance and shut the water tap after use.
General safety
•Repairs to the machine must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons could cause serious danger. Contact your local Service Centre.

Tips for environmental protection
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips:
•Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).
•The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.
•With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.
•Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.

Do not use already employed hoses for water connection.
P1088 |
ENGLISH
7
132992970-EWF800•GB 10/07/03 10:19 Pagina 8
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.
P0021 |
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.
Important!
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or to pipework that has not been used for some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris that may have collected in the pipes.
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.
P0022 |
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.
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.
Any extension applied to the drainage hose should not be longer than 200 cm and its diameter must not be smaller than that of the original hose. Use a suitable fitting for the connection.
P1118
The drain hose must not be kinked.
For a correct functioning of the machine the drain hose must remain hooked on the proper support piece situated on the top part of the back side of the appliance.
Electrical connection
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution.
Should the appliance power supply cable need to be replaced, this should be carried out by our Service Centre.
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed the power supply cable is easily accessible.

Washing hints
Sorting the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows:
whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.
Temperatures
95° for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...)
60° for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses, pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g. underwear).
(cold)for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed 30°-40° laundry including synthetic fibres and
woollens bearing the label «pure new wool, machine washable, non-shrink».
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.
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the programme charts.
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.
Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

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.
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).
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. Remove any residual marks from white fabrics 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.
ENGLISH
11
132992970-EWF800•GB 10/07/03 10:19 Pagina 12
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.
(*) 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,
–liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only.
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.
The washing machine incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.
Pour liquid detergent into the dispenser drawer compartment marked just before starting the programme.
Any fabric softener or starching additives must 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.
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.
Use less detergent if:
–you are washing a small load,
–the laundry is lightly soiled,
–large amounts of foam form during washing.
