appliance does not touch
the wall or other units.
2. Loosen or tighten the feet to adjust
the level.
WARNING!

4. If necessary, loose the ring nut to set
it in the correct position. Simply
loosen the fitting, rotate the hose
and retighten the fitting, making sure
there are no water leaks.
Do not use an extension
hose if the inlet hose is too
short. Contact the service
centre for purchasing a new,
longer hose specially
designed for this type of
use.
ENGLISH
4.5 Water drainage
The drain hose should be positioned at a
height of not less than 60 cm and not
more than 100 cm from the floor.
You can extend the drain
hose to maximum 400 cm.
Contact the authorized
service centre for the other
drain hose and the
extension.
It is possible to connect the drain hose in
different ways:
1. Make a U shape with the drain hose
and put it around the plastic hose
guide.
2. On the edge of a sink - Fasten the
guide to the water tap or to the wall.
Make sure that the plastic
guide cannot move when
the appliance drains.

4.4 Water-stop device
The inlet hose has a water stop device.
This device prevents water leaks in the
hose because of its natural ageing.
The red sector in the window «A» shows
this fault.
If this occurs, close the water tap and
contact the authorized service centre to
replace the hose.
Make sure that the drain
hose end is not immersed in
the water. There may be a
return of dirty water into the
appliance.
3. To a stand pipe with vent-hole -
Insert the drain hose directly into a
drain pipe. Refer to the illustration.

The end of the drain hose
must always be ventilated ,
i.e. the inner diameter of the
drain pipe (min. 38 mm min. 1.5") must be larger
than the external diameter
of the drain hose.
4. If the end of the drain hose looks like
this (see the picture), you can push it
directly into the stand pipe.
5. Without the plastic hose guide, to
a sink spigot - Remove the plastic
membrane from the sink trap spigot.
6. Connect the drain hose to the spigot
and tighten it with a clamp.
7. Position the hose directly to a builtin drain pipe in the room wall and
tighten it with a clamp.
5. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
5.1 Special features
Your new washing machine meets all
modern requirements for an effective
treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption and
proper care of fabric.
• The interactive touch screen display
makes the setting and the use of the
appliance more immediate and
agreeable.
• The SoftWater Technology acts as
water softener and removes harsh
minerals from the inlet water and
supplies soft water for the washing.
Wash after wash, fabric stiffness,
shrinkage and colour fading are
prevented.
• The Oko-Mix technology has been
designed to protect the fabric fibres
thanks to different pre-mixing phases
that dissolves first the detergent and
then fabric softener in the water
before they are distributed in the
laundry. So every fibre is reached and
cared for.
• Thanks to the Weight Sensors the
appliance can detect the weight of
your load and advise on how much
detergent you need to achieve the
best results without waste.
• The ProSense technology adjusts
automatically the programme
duration to the laundry in the drum to
achieve perfect washing results in the
minimum possible time.

• The steam has a quick and easy way
to refresh the clothes. The gentle
steam programmes remove odours
and reduce creases in dry fabrics so
they need little ironing.
The Plus Steam option, finishes every
cycle with gentle steam that relaxes
the fibres and reduces fabric creasing.
Ironing will be easier!
5.2 Appliance overview
• The Stains option pre-treats stubborn
stains optimizing the effectiveness of
the stain remover.
• Thanks to the Soft Plus option, the
fabric softener is uniformly spread out
in the laundry and deeply penetrates
the fabric fibres favouring a perfect
softness.

6. THE WATER SOFTENER (SOFTWATER
TECHNOLOGY)
Read carefully 'The
Water Softener
technology ( Soft
Water)'.
6.1 Introduction
The water contains harsh minerals. The
higher the content of these minerals the
harder the water is.
Hard water can reduce the effectiveness
of the detergent, reduce the softness of
fabrics and contribute towards shrinkage
and colour fading.
This appliance is equipped with a water
softener able to provide the right degree
of water softening to preserve the fabric
integrity, colour brightness and ensuring
good wash performances at low
temperature.
The water softener should be adjusted
according to the water hardness of your
inlet water. A correct setting allows to
achieve the best washing results and the
maximum garments protection.
To set the water softener correctly,
please refer to 'How to set the water
hardness level'.
6.2 How to set the water
hardness level
The appliance allows you to chose
between 7 levels corresponding to 7
different ranges of water hardness.
Depending on the country, the water
hardness is expressed in equivalent
scales: e.g. French degrees (°f), German
degrees (°d), English degrees (°e),
mmol/l and ppm.
If necessary, please contact your local
water authority to check the water
hardness in your area.
Check in the "Water hardness levels"
table which is the proper level.
The first time you turn the
appliance on, the touch
screen proposes different
settings: one on this is water
hardness level.

To set the water hardness level:
1. Press the On/Off button for a few
seconds to activate the appliance.
2. Wait until the programme screen
appears and scroll up and down the
list to find Settings.
3. Tap on to enter the setting list.
4. Scroll the list up and down to find
Water Hardness.
5. Tap on the Water Hardness bar.
6. Scroll the level list right and left to
chose the proper level.
7. Tap on the Water Hardness bar to
exit and to confirm the chosen level.
8. Scroll up and down the setting list to
find the Water Softener bar and tap
on it to enter.
9. Scroll the bar right and left to chose:
• Wash: the water softener acts
during washing phase only. This
setting satisfies most of the use
condition.
• Wash & Rinse: if the inlet water is
particularly hard (6 and 7 levels),
we suggest to set the water
softener also during rinsing phase
to preserve the fabric softness.
This setting increases
the salt consumption.
• OFF: to deactivate the water
softener.

The compartment
can contain about
600 gr of salt that are sufficient for about
20 - 300 washing cycles (or 4 - 70 weeks)
depending on the set water hardness
level and whether the water softener is
activated during wash phase only. If the
water softener is activated also during
rinse phase, the salt refilling lasts 5 - 80
washing cycles (or 1 - 18 weeks)
depending on the set water hardness
level. Refer to 'How to set the water
hardness level'.
The display shows the message Top upsalt at the end of a cycle when
compartment needs to be refilled
with salt, even if a little salt still remains.
WARNING!
Pour the salt in the
compartment
only.
WARNING!
Do not put anything but salt
in the compartment
. If
any other detergent/additive
is poured inadvertently in
this compartment, please
refer to 'Eliminating
detergent or other additives
from salt compartment' in
'Troubleshooting' chapter.
Only use special salt for
dishwasher and/or washing
machine. Other types of
salts are less efficient and
over time could damage the
water softener technology
permanently. Do not use
fine salt!
The appliance works
normally even without salt,
but without exploiting its full
potential. If you use the
appliance without salt for a
long time, once the salt is
finally refilled, the water
softener function is
completely restored after a
few long washing cycles.
