Ecological hints
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.

Positioning and levelling
Level the appliance by raising or lowering
the feet. Depending on the model, the appliance can have four adjustable feet, or
two front-adjustable feet and two back
fixed feet.
The appliance MUST be level and stable on
a flat hard floor. If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level. Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.
Water inlet
• Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread.
• Loosen the ring nut to angle the hose to
the left or right depending on the position
of your water tap. Do not place the in-
let hose downwards.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise
and displacement of the appliance during
operation.
Repeat the levelling action, if the appliance
is not level and stable.

• After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to
tighten the ring nut again to prevent
leaks.
Water drainage
Form a hook at the end of the drain hose
using the plastic hose guide, if necessary.
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in four ways:
Hooked over the edge of a sink using

If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove any blanking plug that may
be in place.
• Directly into a drain pipe at a height
of not less than 60 cm and not more than
100 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.
• Directly to a built-in drain pipe in the
room wall.
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and

Electrical connection
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Make sure that the electrical information
on the rating plate agree with your domestic power supply.
• Always use a correctly installed shockproof socket.
• Do not use multi-way plugs, connectors
and extension cables. There is a risk of
fire.
• Do not replace or modify the mains cable
yourself. Contact the After Sales Service.
FIRST USE
• Ensure that the electrical and water
connections comply with the installation instructions.
• Ensure that the drum is empty.
• Before the first wash, run a cotton
cycle at the highest temperature

DAILY USE
Sort out 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.
Before Loading The Laundry
Important! 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 any hooks
(e.g curtains).
• 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.
• Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.
• Treat curtains with special care.
• Wash the socks and the gloves inside the
bag or a net.
Remove stubborn stains before 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

, lay the garment on a soft cloth
and dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above,
then treat stains with methylated spirits.
Treat any residual marks with bleach.

Open the door by carefully pulling the
door handle outwards
Load the laundry
Place the laundry in the drum, one item at a
time, shaking them out as much as possible.
Maximum Loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
«Washing Programmes».
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.
2) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
12 electrolux
Close the door gently
Warning! Make sure that any fabrics
were not trapped when closing the
door.
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
(40°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.
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.
For the quantity of detergent, refer always
to what is written on the product packing.
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load,
• the laundry is lightly soiled,
• large amounts of foam form during washing.
Degrees of water hardness
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.
If the water hardness degree is medium or
high we suggest you to add a water softener following always the manufacturer’s instructions.
When the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the quantity of the detergent.
Open the detergent dispenser drawer
Compartment for powder or liquid de-
tergent used for main wash.
Compartment for liquid additives (fabric softener,

Warning! If you wish to carry out the
prewash, pour the detergent among
washing items into the drum.
Warning! Depending on the type
detergent you use (powder of liquid),
ensure that the flap, placed in the main
wash compartment, is in the desired
position.
