YOUR NEW WASHING MACHINE

This new washing machine, which is fitted with the Direct Spray system, patented Electrolux, meets all modern needs for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

Further savings are achieved by washing small loads of laundry, since water and electricity consumption is proportional to the quantity and type of laundry being washed.

■

The temperature selector dial will allow you to choose the most suitable temperature for your laundry.

■

The special wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollen with extreme gentleness.

■

The anti-unbalance device ensures that the washing machine remains stable when spinning.

■

The automatic cooling of the washing water from 95° to 60°C before draining will

prevent old drain pipes from being deformed.

Hints on how to save ener gy

By following these hints you will obtain economical washing without damaging the environment:

■

Whenever possible, wash the maximum load for the selected programme, without overloading the drum.

■

Use the prewash programme only for very soiled laundry.

■

Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed.

■

Use an economy programme for normally soiled laundry.

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.

■

General warnings

■

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 wash cycles the glass door becomes very hot. Do not touch it.

■

Pets sometimes climb into washing machines. Check the drum before each use.

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 adjustable 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.

Service/repair

■

In the event of a fault, do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause damage.

■

If repairs are needed, contact an authorised service centre and ask for genuine spare parts.

INSTALLATION

Transit devices

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 again.

1. Using a spanner, unscrew and remove the rear right-hand bolt.

2. Lay the machine on its back, taking care not to squash the hoses. This can be avoided by placing one of the corner packing pieces between the machine and the floor.

3. Remove the polystyrene block from the underside of the machine.

4. Release the two plastic bags by removing the adhesive strip. Carefully remove the right-hand bag (1) then the left-hand bag (2) by pulling them towards the centre of the machine.

P0255

5. Set the machine upright and remove the two remaining bolts from the back.

6. Pull out the three plastic pegs from the holes into which the bolts were fitted.

7. Plug the open holes with the plugs which you will find on the back of the machine.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen units.

Carefully level by screwing the adjustable feet in or out. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor. After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock nuts.

Water inlet

Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread. 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.

Water stop device

The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device, which protects against damage caused by water leaks in the fill hose which could develop due to natural ageing of the hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in the window «A».

Should this occur, turn the water tap off and refer to your Service Agent to replace the hose.

H LI

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.

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.
