Installation

GB

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
place for future reference. If the washing machine
is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the
instruction manual remains with the machine so
that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/
herself with its operation and features.

! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information relating to the safe installation
and operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.

2. Make sure that the washing machine has not
been damaged during the transportation process.
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do
not proceed any further with the installation process.

3. Remove the 4 pro­tective screws (used
during transportation)
and the rubber washer
with the corresponding
spacer, located on the
rear part of the applian­ce (see figure).

4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs
provided.

5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need
them again if the washing machine needs to be
moved to another location.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with
stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive
noise and prevent it from shifting while it is ope­rating. If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the
feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient venti­lation space underneath the washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and wa­ter supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tap using
a ¾ gas threaded con­nection (see figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until
it is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet
hose to the washing
machine by screwing
it onto the correspon­ding water inlet of the
appliance, which is si­tuated on the top right­hand side of the rear
part of the appliance
(see figure).

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over
or bent.

! Packaging materials should not be used as
toys for children.

Levelling

1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or anything else.

2. If the floor is not per­fectly level, compensa­te for any unevenness
by tightening or loo­sening the adjustable
front feet (see figure);
the angle of inclination,
measured in relation to
the worktop, must not
exceed 2°.

2

! The water pressure at the tap must fall within
the values indicated in the Technical details table

(see next page).

! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialised shop or an authorised technician.

! Never use second-hand hoses.

! Use the ones supplied with the machine.

65 - 100 cm

Connecting the drain hose

Connect the drain
hose, without bending
it, to a drainage duct or
a wall drain located at a
height between 65 and
100 cm from the floor;

Alternatively, place
the drain hose over
the edge of a wa­shbasin or bathtub,
by fastening the
guide (which

can be purchased at
the technical assi­stance centre) to the

tap (see figure). The

free end of the hose
should not be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions;
if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must
have the same diameter as the original hose and
must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity
socket, make sure that:

• the socket is earthed and complies with all

applicable laws;

• the socket is able to withstand the maximum

power load of the appliance as indicated in the
Technical data table (see opposite);

• the power supply voltage falls within the values

indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

• the socket is compatible with the plug of the

washing machine. If this is not the case, repla­ce the socket or the plug.

! The washing machine must not be installed
outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely
dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to
rain, storms and other weather conditions.

! When the washing machine has been installed,
the electricity socket must be within easy reach.

! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! The cable should not be bent or compressed.

! The power supply cable must only be replaced

by authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible
in the event that these regulations are not respected.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed, and before
you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with
detergent and no laundry, using the wash cycle 2.

Care and maintenance

GB

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 washing machine and help to pre­vent leaks.

• Unplug the washing machine 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.

To access the pre-chamber:

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

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

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.

Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance

• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order

to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine 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.

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.

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 can be used by children

aged from 8 years and above and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and know­ledge if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance
shall not be made by children without super­vision.

- Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble
dryer.

- Items that have been soiled with substan­ces such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol,
petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine,
waxes and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with an extra amount of deter­gent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

- Items such as foam rubber (latex foam),
shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted
with foam rubber pads should not be dried
in the tumble dryer.

- Fabric softeners, or similar products,
should be used as specified by the fabric
softener instructions.

- The final part of a tumble dryer cycle
occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to
ensure that the items are left at a tempera­ture that ensures that the items will not be
damaged.

WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer be­fore the end of the drying cycle unless all
items are quickly removed and spread out
so that the heat is dissipated.

• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.

• 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 extreme-

ly 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 circum-

stances 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.

• Children of less than 3 years should be kept

away from the appliance unless continuou­ sly supervised.

• Remove all objects from pockets such as

lighters and matches.

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local
regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.

• The European Directive 2012/19/EU 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. 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.

drying time, until the cycle is excluded completely
(“OFF”).

Drying may be set as follows:
A- Based on the desired laundry dryness level:
Iron dry: suitable for clothes which will need ironing

afterwards. the remaining dampness softens creases,
making them easier to remove; “A1” appears on the
display.

Hanger dry: ideal for clothes which do not need to be

dried fully; “A2” appears on the display.

Cupboard dry: suitable for laundry which can be put

back in a cupboard without being ironed; “A3” appears
on the display.

Extra dry: suitable for garments which need to be dried

completely, such as sponges and bathrobes “A4”;
appears on the display.
B - Based on a set time period: between 30 and 180
minutes.

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: a cooling-down period is always added to the end
of each drying cycle.

Eco

Selecting this option enables you to suitably adjust drum
rotation, temperature and water to a reduced load of lightly
soiled cotton and synthetic fabrics (refer to the

wash cycles”

). “Eco” enables you to wash in less time
thereby saving water and electricity. We suggest using a
liquid detergent suitably measured out to the load quantity.

Intensive 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.

Easy iron

By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be
modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.

“Table of

At the end of the cycle the Washer-dryer will perform slow

GB

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.

! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for

pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.

! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.

! Do not use hand washing detergents because these

create too much foam.

Open the detergent di­spenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.

compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.

compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.

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 values listed in the “Table of wash

cycles”, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.

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

Silk: use special wash cycle 7 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 7.
Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and use
a liquid detergent. Use programme 8.
Sport Light (wash cycle 9): is for washing lightly soiled
sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load
indicated in the “Table of wash cycles”. We recommend
using a liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half­load.
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 10): is for washing sports
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
Express Wash&Dry (wash cycle 13) was designed to
wash and dry lightly soiled garments quickly. This cycle
may be used to wash and dry a laundry load of up to 0.5
kg in just 30 minutes.
To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre­treat cuffs, collars and stains.

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.

Special wash cycles

Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:

the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by
The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool garments
labelled as “hand wash” provided that the products are
washed according to the instructions on the garment label
and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing
machine.(M1318)

If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch
the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of
the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage,
causing the Washer-dryer to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti­draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.

• The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require the drain
phase to be started manually.

• The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”).

• The drainage duct is clogged.

• The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see “Installation”).

• The Washer-dryer is not level (see “Installation”).

• The Washer-dryer is trapped between cabinets and walls (see “Installation”).

• The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see “Care
and maintenance”).

• The drain hose is not fixed properly (see “Installation”).
