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».

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.

Avoid drying dark clothes with light
coloured fluffy items such as towels as
these can attract the fluff.

Remove the laundry when the appli­ance has finished drying.

To avoid a static charge when drying is
completed, use either a fabric softener
when you are washing the laundry or a
fabric conditioner specifically for tumble
dryers.

Particularly delicate items such as syn­thetic curtains, woollen and silk, gar­ments with metal inserts, nylon stock­ings, bulky garments such as anoraks,
bedcovers, quilts, sleeping bags and
duvets must not be machine dried.

Garments padded with foam-rubber or
materials similar to foam-rubber must
not be machine dried; they represent a
fire hazard.

Also, fabrics containing residues of set­ting lotions or hair sprays, nail solvents
or similar solutions must not be
machine dried in order to avoid the for­mation of harmful vapours.

For drying, follow the indications given
on the manufacturer’s labels.

22 electrolux washing & drying hints

Important

As a dryer, the machine works on the
condensation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be
open and the drain hose must drain
water into a sink or into the drain
pipe, even during the drying cycle.

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

100 gnapkin
700 gquilt cover
500 gsheet
200 gpillow case
250 gtablecloth

600 gman’s work shirt

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.

washing & drying hints electrolux 23

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 washer-dryer
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 washer-dryer 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 so­called “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 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.

The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to
temperatures below 0°C, certain
precautions should be taken:

• pull out the plug from the power
socket;

• turn off the water tap.

• unscrew the inlet hose.

• place a bowl with a small edge close
to the pump to collect any spillage
from the emergency emptying hose.
Place the end 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 cap on again into the filter
cover.

• when you intend to start the machine
up again, make sure that the room
temperature is above 0°C.

Important!

Every time you drain the water through
the emergency emptying hose you must
pour 2 litres of water into the main wash
compartment of the detergent drawer
and then run the drain programme. This
will activate the ECO VALVE device
avoiding that part of the detergent
remains unused at next washing.

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 using the
suitable tool;

• place a bowl with a small edge close
to the pump to collect any spillage.
Remove the emergency emptying
cap from the filter cover. The water
should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap
back on filter cover. Empty the bowl.
Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;

• clean the pump if necessary as
previously described;

• replace the filter into the pump and
screw it firmly as previously
described;

• replace the emergency emptying cap
into the filter cover and close the
pump door.

Malfunction Possible cause Solution

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.

If you are unable to identify or solve the
problem, contact our service centre.

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 washer-dryer 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.

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.

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.

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.
