Special wash cycles

Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 6). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach. Pour the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled Detergent dispenser drawer). Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 7). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in the drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin cycle and drain the water automatically after 8 hours. Baby cycle (wash cycle 8). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent. At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button. Mix 30 wash cycle 4) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (4 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg. Mix 15 (wash cycle 5) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.

Personalisation

Setting the temperature

By pressing the TEMPERATURE button to set the wash temperature (see Table of wash cycles). The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash ( The washer-dryer will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the maximum value set for each wash cycle.

Setting the drying cycle

The desired drying cycle type may be set by pressing the DRYING button once or several times. Two options are available:

A - Based on time: from 40 to 180 minutes. B - Based on the how damp the clothes are once they have

been dried:

Iron dry Cupboard dry

and bathrobes. If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load (see adjacent table), perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this point, follow the instructions provided for a "Drying only" cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load.

N.B.: when the drying is complete there is a cooling period, even though the DRYING button is in the 0 position.

Drying only

Turn the WASH CYCLE knob to one of the drying settings (11-12-13) according to the type of fabric, then select the desired drying duration using the DRYING button.

Functions

The various wash functions available with this washer-dryer will help to achieve the desired results, every time. To activate the functions:

1. Press the button corresponding to the desired function;

2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated. Note: If the indicator light flashes rapidly, this signals that this particular function may not be selected in

conjunction with the selected wash cycle.

Delay timer

To set a delayed start for the selected wash cycle, press the button repeatedly until the desired delay time is displayed (this may be between 1 hour and 24 hours). To disable the function press the button until the text N.B. Once you have pressed the START/PAUSE button, the delay time may only be decreased if you wish to modify it.

 This option is enabled with all programmes.

Super Wash

Because a greater quantity of water is used in the initial phase of the cycle, and because of the increased cycle duration, this function offers a high-performance wash.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, A, B, C.

Extra rinse

By selecting this function, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin.

Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to environmental pollution.

 Do not use hand washing detergents because these

create too much foam.

Bleach cycle

Bleaching may only be performed in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2, 6. Pour the bleach into extra compartment 3; pour the detergent and softener into the corresponding compartments, then select one of the abovementioned wash cycles. This option is recommended only for very soiled cotton garments.

Preparing the laundry

 Divide the laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.

- the colours: separate coloured garments from

whites  Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.  Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the

weight of the laundry when dry:

Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg

Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

Wool: max. 1,5 kg

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g 1 pillow case 150-200 g 1 tablecloth 400-500 g 1 bathrobe 900-1200 g 1 towel 150-250 g

Garments requiring special care

Silk: use special wash cycle 9 to wash all silk

garments. We recommend the use of special detergent which has been designed to wash delicate clothes. Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 9. Wool: Hotpoint/Ariston is the only washer-dryer manufacturer to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by the Woolmark Company, which means that all woollen garments may be washed in the washerdryer, even those which state hand wash only on the label. Wash cycle 10 therefore offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen garments in the washer-dryer (max. load 1,5 kg) and guarantees optimal performance.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

Anti-crease

This function interrupts the wash programme, and the washing is left to soak in water before the appliance is drained. It can only be used with programme 9 (Silk/Curtains) and helps to prevent the formation of creases. To complete the cycle press the START/PAUSE button.

Precautions and tips

 This washer-dryer was designed and constructed in

accordance with international safety regulations. The following information is provided for safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.

General safety

 This appliance was designed for domestic use only.  The washer-dryer must only be used by adults, in

accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.  Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with

wet or damp hands or feet.  Do not pull on the power supply cable when

unplugging the appliance from the electricity

socket. Hold the plug and pull.  Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while

the machine is in operation.  Do not touch the drained water as it may reach

extremely high temperatures.  Never force the porthole door. This could damage

the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent

accidental opening.  If the appliance breaks down, do not under any

circumstances access the internal mechanisms in

an attempt to repair it yourself.  Always keep children well away from the appliance

while it is operating.  The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

of two or three people and handle it with the utmost

care. Never try to do this alone, because the

appliance is very heavy.  Before loading laundry into the washer-dryer, make

sure the drum is empty.  During the drying phase, the door tends to get

quite hot.

 Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have

been washed with flammable solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene).

 Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or

similar elastomers.

 Make sure that the water tap is turned on during

the drying cycles.

The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Opening the porthole door manually

In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the laundry, proceed as follows:

1. remove the plug from the electrical socket.

2. make sure the water level inside the machine is

lower than the door opening; if it is not, remove excess water using the drain hose, collecting it in a bucket as indicated in the figure.

3. using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washer-dryer (see figure).

Disposal

 Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.  The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.

4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull downwards and open the door at the same time.

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and electricity supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This

will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the

washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it and

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washer-dryer

The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

Remove the dispenser by raising it and pulling it out (see figure). Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

Cleaning the pump

The washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug

the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washer-dryer (see figure);

2. unscrew the lid by rotating it anti-clockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;

Caring for the door and drum of your appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the lid back on;

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

 Never use second-hand hoses.

Installation

 Conserver ce mode demploi pour pouvoir le

consulter à tout moment. En cas de vente, de cession ou de déménagement, veiller à ce quil suive toujours le lavante-séchante pour que son nouveau propriétaire soit informé sur son mode de fonctionnement et puisse profiter des conseils correspondants.

 Lire attentivement les instructions: elles fournissent

des conseils importants sur linstallation, lutilisation et la sécurité de lappareil.

Déballage et mise à niveau

Déballage

1. Déballer le lavante-séchante.

2. Contrôler que le lavante-séchante na pas été endommagé pendant le transport. Sil est abîmé, ne pas le raccorder et contacter le vendeur.

3. Enlever les 4 vis de protection servant au transport, le caoutchouc et la cale, placés dans la partie arrière (voir figure).

Une bonne mise à niveau garantit la stabilité de lappareil et évite quil y ait des vibrations, du bruit et des déplacements en cours de fonctionnement. Si la machine est posée sur de la moquette ou un tapis, régler les pieds de manière à ce quil y ait suffisamment despace pour assurer une bonne ventilation.

Raccordements eau et électricité

Raccordement du tuyau darrivée de leau

1. Monter le joint A sur lextrémité du tuyau dalimentation et le visser à un robinet deau froide

à embout fileté 3/4 gaz

(voir figure).

Faire couler leau jusquà ce quelle soit limpide et sans impuretés avant de raccorder.

2. Raccorder le tuyau darrivée de leau au lavante-séchante en le vissant à la prise deau prévue, dans la partie arrière en haut à droite (voir figure).

4. Boucher les trous à laide des bouchons plastique fournis.

5. Conserver toutes ces pièces: il faudra les remonter en cas de transport du lavante-séchante.

 Les pièces demballage ne sont pas des jouets pour

enfants.

Mise à niveau

1. Installer le lavante-séchante sur un sol plat et rigide, sans lappuyer contre des murs, des meubles ou autre.

2. Si le sol nest pas parfaitement horizontal, visser ou dévisser les pieds de réglage avant (voir figure) pour niveler lappareil; son angle dinclinaison, mesuré sur le plan de travail, ne doit pas dépasser 2°.

3. Attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit pas plié ou écrasé.

 La pression de leau doit être comprise entre les

valeurs indiquées dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir page ci-contre).

 Si la longueur du tuyau dalimentation ne suffit pas,

sadresser à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien agréé.

 Nutiliser que des tuyaux neufs.

 Utiliser ceux qui sont fournis avec lappareil.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange

Raccorder le tuyau dévacuation, sans le plier, à un conduit dévacuation ou à une évacuation murale placés

65 - 100 cm

à une distance du sol comprise entre 65 et 100 cm;

 Nutiliser ni rallonges ni prises multiples.

 Le câble ne doit être ni plié ni trop écrasé.

 Le câble dalimentation ne doit être remplacé que

par des techniciens agréés.

Attention! Nous déclinons toute responsabilité en cas de non-respect des normes énumérées ci-dessus.

Premier cycle de lavage

ou bien laccrocher à un évier ou à une baignoire, dans ce cas, fixer le support en plastique fourni avec lappareil au robinet (voir figure). Lextrémité libre du tuyau dévacuation ne doit pas être plongée dans leau.

 Lutilisation dun tuyau de rallonge est absolument

déconseillée mais si on ne peut faire autrement, il faut absolument quil ait le même diamètre que le tuyau original et sa longueur ne doit pas dépasser 150 cm.

Branchement électrique

Avant de brancher la fiche dans la prise de courant, sassurer que:

 la prise est bien reliée à la terre et est conforme aux

réglementations en vigueur;

 la prise est bien apte à supporter la puissance

maximale de lappareil indiquée dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir ci-contre);

 la tension dalimentation est bien comprise entre les

valeurs figurant dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir ci-contre);

 la prise est bien compatible avec la fiche du lavan-

te-séchante. Autrement, remplacer la prise ou la fiche.

 Le lavante-séchante ne doit pas être installé dehors,

même à labri, car il est très dangereux de le laisser exposé à la pluie et aux orages.

 Après installation du lavante-séchante, la prise de

courant doit être facilement accessible.

Avant la première mise en service de lappareil, effectuer un cycle de lavage avec un produit lessiviel mais sans linge et sélectionner le programme 1 .
