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

90°-95° for normally soiled white cottons and linen

(e.g. tea cloths, towels, table cloths, sheets...)

50°-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.

Laundry weights

The following weights are indicative: bathrobe 1200 g napkin 100 g quilt cover 700 g sheet 500 g pillow case 200 g tablecloth 250 g towels 200 g tea cloth 100 g night dress 200 g ladies’ briefs 100 g man’s work shirt 600 g man’s shirt 200 g man’s pyjamas 500 g blouse 100 g men’s underpants 100 g

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.

ewf14115_GB.qxp 14/02/2006 10.16 Pagina 12

ENGLISH

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 benzene, 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.

Only low suds frontload washing detergents should 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.

Maintenance

1. Bodywork

Clean the outside of the machine with soap and water only. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the bodywork.

2. Door seal

Check from time to time the door seal and eliminate eventual possible objects that could be trapped in the fold.

3. Detergent dispenser drawer

After a while, detergents and fabric softeners leave deposits in the drawer.

Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it under a running tap. To remove the drawer from the machine, press the button in the rear left-hand corner.

To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive compartments can be removed.

C0067

C0066

P1050

Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the drawer after cleaning.

4. Drain pump

The pump should be inspected if

• the machine does not empty and/or spin

• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking the pump.

Proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the appliance.

• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.

• Open the pump door.

• Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.

• Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container and remove its cap.

• When no more water comes out, unscrew the drain filter and remove. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the filter.

• Remove any objects from the pump impeller by rotating it.

• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat.

• Screw the pump cover fully in.

• Close the pump door.

5. Water inlet filter

If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not blocked.

Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the hose from the tap. Clean the filter with a stiff brush. Screw the hose back onto the tap.

P1090

6. Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to empty out the machine:

• pull out the plug from the power socket;

• close the water tap;

• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;

• open the pump door;

• place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out;

• clean the pump if necessary as previously described;

• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after having plugged it;

• screw the pump cover again and close the door.

7. Frost precautions

If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as follows:

• Remove the plug from the socket.

• Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose from the tap.

• Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor and let water drain out.

• Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on again.

By doing this, any water remaining in the machine is removed, avoiding the formation of ice and, consequently, breakage of the affected parts.

When you use the machine again, make sure that the ambient temperature is above 0°C.

Problem Possible cause

• 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 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.

• The machine vibrates or is noisy:

• The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.

• The support feet have not been adjusted.

• The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.

• Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

• Unsatisfactory washing results:

• Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.

• Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.

• The correct temperature was not selected.

• Excessive laundry load.

Uppackning

Alla transportbultar och allt förpackningsmaterial måste avlägsnas innan maskinen används.

Vi rekommenderar att du sparar alla transportdelar så de kan återmonteras om maskinen behöver transporteras igen.

1. Skruva loss de två nedre skruvarna på maskinens baksida med en skruvnyckel. Dra ut de två plaststiften. Lägg maskinen ned på dess baksida. Se till att slangarna inte kommer i kläm. Detta kan undvikas genom att placera en av hörnpackbitarna mellan maskinen och golvet.

2. Avlägsna polystyrenblocket/blocken från maskinens undersida och frigör de två plastpåsarna.

3. Dra mycket försiktigt ut den vänstra polytenpåsen. Lossa den åt höger och sedan nedåt.

4. Dra mycket försiktigt ut den högra polytenpåsen. Lossa den åt vänster och sedan uppåt. Avlägsna bottenpanelen som sitter i maskintrumman. Positionera panelens krok såsom pilen

‘

A’ visar och tryck upptill på panelen

för att stänga den.

Viktigt: Du finner detaljerade instruktioner om bottenpanelens montering i panelens påse.

5. Ställ maskinen upprätt och avlägsna den återstående skruven på baksidan. Dra ut motsvarande stift.

6. Täpp till alla hål med pluggarna som du

hittar i kuvertet som innehåller bruksanvisningen.

Placering

Installera maskinen på plant och hårt golv. Se till att luftcirkulationen kring maskinen inte blockeras av tjocka mattor eller liknande. Kontrollera att maskinen inte vidrör någon vägg eller skåpenhet. Justera noga in maskinen i våg genom att skruva de justerbara fötterna in eller ut. Försök aldrig att korrigera ojämnheter i golvet med träbitar, papp eller liknande material under maskinen.

Tillvattenfilter

Anslut tillvattenslangen till en kran med 3/4” -gänga (British Standard Pipe Thread

Parallel). Använd slangen som medföljer maskinen. ANVÄND INTE GAMLA SLANGAR. Den andra änden av tillvattenslangen som ansluter till maskinen kan vridas i båda riktningarna. Lossa helt enkelt förskruvningen, vrid slangen och dra åt igen. Kontrollera att inget vatten läcker.

Tillvattenslangen får inte förlängas. Om den är för kort och du inte vill flytta kranen måste du köpa en längre slang som är avsedd för denna typ av användning.

Avlopp

Änden på avloppsslangen kan placeras på tre sätt:

Hakad över kanten på en vask med hjälp av plastböjen som medföljer maskinen. Se till att

slangen inte kan lossna medan maskinen tömmer. Detta kan ske genom binda fast den vid kranen eller fästa den i väggen.

I en förgrening på ett handfats avloppsrör. Förgreningen måste vara ovanför vattenlåset så att böjen är minst 60 cm över golvnivå.

Direkt ansluten till ett avloppsrör på minst 60 cm och ej över 90 cm höjd. Änden på avloppsslangen måste alltid vara ventilerad, dvs. avloppsrörets invändiga diameter måste vara större än avloppsslangens utvändiga diameter. Avloppsslangen får inte klämmas ihop eller sno sig. Dra slangen längs golvet. Endast delen av slangen nära avloppet får höjas upp.

För att tvättmaskinen skall fungera korrekt måste avloppsslangen vara upphängd på hållaren som sitter på maskinens baksida.

P0023

P0022

Elektrisk anslutning

Denna maskin skall anslutas till en 1-fasig nätspänningsmatning som levererar 230 V / 50 Hz.

Kontrollera att din heminstallation kan bära den maximala belastning som krävs (2,2 kW), även med hänsyn till andra apparater som används i ditt hushåll.

Anslut maskinen till ett jordat eluttag.

Tillverkaren ansvarar inte för skador på person eller egendom som orsakas av att ovanstående säkerhetsåtgärder inte har följts. Om maskinens nätkabel behöver bytas ut måste detta utföras av vår serviceavdelning.

Viktigt!

När maskinen är installerad måste nätkabeln vara lätt åtkomlig.
