SAFETY

GENERAL

• Read and keep this manual!

• Any electrical work or plumbing must be car-

ried out by qualified tradesmen.

• Remove the transit screws before you use the

machine, see Mechanical installation.

CHILD LOCK ON BUTTON

To prevent accidental button pushes on the

button you can activate the child lock

function. The

button then must be held

in for three seconds to activate the machine.

DOOR

The door is opened electrically, so it cannot be

opened until the machine is connected to the

electrical supply! The door can however be ope-

ned in an emergency, see Troubleshooting.

OVERFILL CUT-OUT

If the water level in the machine rises above

normal the overfill cut-out shuts off the water

intake and starts pumping out the water. The

programme resumes when the water level has

dropped.

TRANSPORT/WINTER STORAGE

If you intend to transport the machine or store

it over winter in unheated premises, empty the

trap and the drain pump, see the chapter on

Maintenance.

Any questions? Call service.

SCRAPPING

At the end of its life the machine must be disa-

bled before being scrapped.

Contact your local recycling centre to find

out where to dispose of it or recycle it.

The machine has been built and marked to

facilitate recycling.

PACKAGING

Recycle the packaging according to recommen-

dations in your area.

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

TRANSIT SCREWS

Before the machine can be used the three trans-

it screws must be removed as described below.

Each transit screw has a washer and a rubber

spacer. The rubber

spacers are used to

protect the screw ho-

les after the screws

have been removed.

1. First unscrew the screw and remove the was-

her.

2. Then pull out the rubber spacer.

3. Finally, refit the rubber spacers to cover the

transit holes.

WASHING MACHINE MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

POSITIONING THE WASHING MACHINE

The washing machine can be built-in or free-

standing. It should be positioned so that there

is an electrical socket within easy reach.

A. Built-in

The washing machine can be built in under a

worktop with a working height of 850–900 mm.

Leave a 5 mm gap around the machine. This

also applies between the rear edge of the top

the machine and the wall behind.

min 600 mm

min 850 mm

B. Free-standing

The washing machine can be placed alongside

or underneath the tumble dryer.

585 mm

The machine can be anchored to the floor, see

enclosed bag containing instructions and parts.

ADJUSTING THE FEET

Adjust the feet so that the machine is level and

steady on the floor.

Tighten the lock-

ing nuts.

CONNECTING TO WATER SUPPLY

The machine should be connected to the water

supply by someone who has the necessary skill.

The machine is connected using the supplied

inlet hose.

NOTE!

It is important that you use the inlet hose that

is supplied, not an old hose.

50 m 8

The water pressure must be 0.1–1 MPa

(about 1–10 kp/cm

; 10–100 N/cm2).

The water supply pipe must be fitted with a

shut-off valve.

595 mm

If the supply pipe has just been installed we

recommend that it is flushed out thoroughly

first to remove any dirt. Otherwise this could

clog the intake filter in the machine and block

the water supply.

WATER INTAKE – MIXED OR COLD WATER

On delivery the machine is set to use mixed hot

and cold water. The machine can be reset to use

only cold water or hot water.

CONNECTING TO THE DRAIN Machine with drain pump

The machine is supplied with a drain hose al-

ready fitted and this should be connected to a

laundry sink, or the like, at a height of 600–900

mm above the floor.

To change the water intake setting, do as follows:

Switch off the power switch, , then switch

it on again so that the machine is in start-up

mode.

Press the

button five times, then press

the 4 button five times. You have to comple-

te these ten button presses within fifteen se-

conds.

Within three seconds of pressing the 4 but-

ton for the fifth time you must then select the

type of water intake you want by pressing the

buttons.

to use cold water only (C).

to use mixed hot and cold water (E).

A letter C near the bottom right of the dis-

play shows that cold water is being used and

the letter E indicates mixed hot and cold.

600-900 mm

The lower height (600 mm) is always prefera-

ble. Make sure the drain hose is not kinked.

Machine with drain valve

An outlet hose is supplied with the machine.

This must be connected to the outlet on the

machine and

empty into a

floor drain

or gutter

drain.

NOTE!

The end of the outlet hose must be lower than

the lowest

point of the

outlet valve.

WASHING MACHINE MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

The washing machine must be connected using

a permanently installed cable through an isola-

ting switch by a qualified electrician.

Power supply

The machine is supplied, depending on market,

for one of the following supplies (see rating

plate):

A. 3-phase, 400V, 50 Hz supply, 10 A.

B. Single-phase, 230 V, 50 Hz supply, 13/16 A.

C. Single-phase, 230 V, 50 Hz supply, 10 A.

If an earth leakage circuit breaker is fitted it

must be of type A.

Reconfiguration

The machine can be reconfigured. The machi-

ne should be reconfigured as shown in the wi-

ring diagram underneath the top panel of the

machine.

NOTE!

Electrical connection /reconfiguring must be car-

ried out by a qualified electrician.

CONNECTING TO A COIN MECHANISM

Connection to a coin mechanism must be car-

ried out by a qualified electrician.

A special connecting cable is required to con-

nect the machine to a coin mechanism. This

can be ordered as a spare part, art. no. 92 090

95.

Recommendations for choice of coin mechanism

The connecting cable (92 090 95) supplies the

coin mechanism with power (230 V). The coin

mechanism must be able to short-circuit two

signal leads for a period of time (around 0–10

minutes). This is so that the user has time to

load the laundry, select the programme and start

the programme after inserting the coins.
