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
for normally soiled white
90°
50°/60°
30°-40°
(cold)
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.
cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...)
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).
for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including synthetic fibres and woollens bearing the label «pure new wool, machine washable, non-shrink».
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:
1200 gbathrobe

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.
Page 17
washing hints electrolux 17
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.
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.
EN
Page 18
18 electrolux washing hints
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.

Care and cleaning
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.
After each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance. Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to preserve the door seal.
Maintenance Wash
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside the drum. We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
• The drum should be empty of laundry.
• Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
• Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer
The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly. Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder.
To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment should be removed.
Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess. Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme without any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning the 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.
P1114
• Place a containfer close to the pump to collect any spillage.
• Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container and remove its cap.
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the cover.
P1115
• 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.
P1117
• Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.
Warning!
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot water in the pump.
Page 26
26 electrolux care and cleaning
P1090
Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose. Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush. Tighten up the inlet hose.
• When you intend to start the machine up again, make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.
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.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, certain precautions should be taken.
• Turn off the water tap.
• Unscrew the inlet hose.
• 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.

Malfunction Possible cause Solution
The machine makes an unusual noise
The machine is fitted with a
type of motor which makes an unusual noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.
No water is visible in the drum
Machines based on modern
technology operate very economically using very little water without affecting performance.
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.

6. Open the porthole, take out the inlet hose from the drum and remove the polystyrene block fitted with the adhesive tape on the door seal.
7. Fill the smaller upper hole and the two large ones with the corresponding plastic plug caps supplied in the bag containing the instruction booklet.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine during operation.Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can been found inside the machine drum. Do not use the hose from your previous machine to connect to the water supply.
1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet hose.
2. Connect the hose with the angled connection to 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. Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they incorporate a self locking nut, but the machine MUST be level and stable. If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level. Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.
Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the hose to the left or right depending on the position of your water tap.

3. 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.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread. Always use the hose supplied with the appliance.
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.
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop device, which protects against damage caused by water leaks in the 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 Centre to replace the hose.
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.
EN
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is available from your local Service Centre.
