Page 12
Preparing the wash cycle
Preparing your garments for washing
o Your washing should be sorted out, according to
the fabric type and the wash care symbol that is
printed on the garment’s wash care label. (see
separate section on wash care symbols).
o Your washing should also be sorted out
according to the degree of soiling.
o Check all pockets on a garment to make sure
that they are empty.
o Remove any detachable metal items (badges,
paperclips, safety pins etc).
o Zips should be closed, duvet covers and pillow cases should be
buttoned up and any loose straps should be tied up. This will
help to prevent other garments from getting damaged during the
wash.
o Woollens and knitted coloured fabrics should be turned inside out
before being washed in the appliance.
o Small delicate items (tights, baby socks) should be placed in
either a washing net or a zipped pillow case.
o Curtains should be handled with particular care. All plastic hooks
or metal strips must be removed before being washed in the
appliance.
o Coloured items and whites should be
washed in separate wash cycles.
o New garments often contain an excess of dye, therefore it is
advisable to wash them separately for their first wash.
o Garments should be unfolded and shook out before being placed
inside the machine.

o The wash care symbols should be used to help you to select the
most suitable wash programme. They will also help you to sort your
laundry into different loads, depending on the fabric type and the
highest temperature which the garment can be washed at.
o If the wash care label does not appear in the above table, then
please refer to the washing machine programme chart. This gives
more detailed descriptions of the types of fabric that are suitable to
be washed using a particular wash programme.
Detergents and conditioners
o Only detergents suitable for use in washing machines should
be used.
The amount of detergent that you need to use in your appliance, will
depend on
oThe degree of soiling. Lightly soiled garments in general require
less detergent.
oThe size of the wash load. A smaller wash load will require a
reduction in the amount of detergent.
oThe hardness of your tap water. The harder your water is, then
the more detergent you will need to use. The detergent
manufacturers normally give guidance as to how much extra
detergent should be used, depending on the hardness of the water.
13
Page 14
Low temperatures
o The enzymes in biological washing detergents work best at low
temperatures to provide excellent cleaning and stain removal
results but not as low as 20°C.
o Liquid or gel detergents are particularly suitable for low
temperature washing as they dissolve easier and quicker than
powders or tablets.
Water softening agents
If your tap water is hard, then it may be prudent to utilise a water
softening agent. This will help to ensure that the appliance does not
become clogged with hard water deposits. You may also find that it will
allow you to lessen the amount of detergent that you are using.
When using any detergent or water softening
agent, the recommendations of the
manufacturer should be followed.

General troubleshooting
Water under the washing machine
o Tighten the drain pump filter.
o Check the drain and inlet hose and make sure that they are fully
tightened.
Washing machine vibrates during the spin cycle
o Check that the transit bolts have been removed (see installation
instructions).
o Make sure that the washing machine is installed on a flat and level
floor.
o Ensure that all four feet are resting firmly on the floor, by pressing
down on each corner and making sure that the appliance is stable.
o If it is unstable then follow the “Positioning and levelling the
appliance” section.
Poor spin results
o Clean the drain pump (see “Cleaning the drain pump filter” section). Water in the detergent dispenser o Although there will be some water residue left in the detergent
drawer after a wash cycle has completed. If the drawer is full of
water then you may need to clean the detergent drawer.
Spinning starts late or the machine does not spin
o The imbalance control system has activated because the laundry is
unevenly distributed in the drum.
o The appliance will redistribute the laundry by reversing the drum
rotation. This may take several attempts before the laundry is
evenly distributed and normal spinning can resume.
o If the laundry is still not evenly distributed after 10 minutes, the
machine will not spin. In the event of this, redistribute the load
manually and select the programme again.
Uneven load distribution can be caused by too large a wash
load or too small a wash load. It can also occur if a single item
is washed inside the appliance.
26
Page 27
Further troubleshooting:
The following circumstances do not constitute a fault with the
appliance. Do not contact Customer Services until the problem has
been confirmed.
27
Page 28
Poor wash results
My garments are looking grey and there are limescale
deposits present in the drum of my washing machine.
o There is not enough detergent being added.
o The incorrect detergent is being used.
o Stains are not being pre-treated.
o The correct wash programme or wash temperature was not
selected.
I have followed the advice given above, but my
garments are still coming out with grey stains on them.
o The garments are soiled with oils, ointments or grease and were
washed without enough detergent.
o The wash temperature selected was too low.
o Fabric conditioner has come into contact with the garments. If this
happens try to wash out these stains as quickly as you can and try
to avoid getting conditioner on the garments in future.
After the final rinse, I can still see foam.
o Modern detergents can result in there still being foam in the final
rinse, this does not mean that the washing is not being rinsed
properly.
There is white residue on my garments when I remove
them from the appliance.
o Modern detergents can contain insoluble contents, and white
residue after a wash cycle is not necessarily a sign of the garments
not being rinsed properly.
o You should shake out the garment or brush it off. In future possibly
turn the garment inside out before it is washed. You may wish to
move from a powder detergent and switch to a liquid detergent
instead.
28
Page 29
Removing stains
Garments that are covered in stains, grease or are heavily soiled may
need to be pre-washed or soaked before being placed inside of the
washer dryer.
o Soaking helps to remove protein-type stains, like blood, milk or
grass.
o Pre-washing helps to loosen soil before the main wash.
Stain removal rules
o Use warm water for soaking or pre-washing stained laundry. Hot
water can set stains.
o Most stains are easier to remove when they are fresh.
o Before treating any stain try to establish; what kind of stain it is,
how old the stain is, what the fabric type is and whether the
fabric is colourfast (check the care label to find this out).
o Washing and drying can fix some stains.
o When bleach is recommended, use a mild fabric bleach that is
safe for the fabric.
o If you need to use a stain remover, put the stained area face
down on a paper towel or white cloth. Apply the stain remover to
the back of the stain. This forces the stain off the fabric, instead
of through it.

Cleaning the drain pump filter
IMPORTANT: Switch off your washing machine and
disconnect the plug from your mains supply.
You should clean out the filter approximately once every
month. If the drain pump filter is not cleaned regularly, then
your appliance may find it difficult to pump out water
efficiently.
1) Open the service panel
o Locate the drain pump filter in the bottom
right hand corner of the appliance.
2) Pull out the bail tube that is to the left of the
drain pump filter. Place the end of the tube
into an adequately sized bowl
3) Remove the bung from the end of it – draining
the water.
4) Replace the bung once the excess water has
drained.
5) Push the bail tube back into the appliance
6) Unscrew the filter and remove.
31
Page 32
7) Wash the filter with running water and ensure
that all debris has been removed.
8) Refit the clean filter and tighten clockwise.
9) Replace the service panel.
o IMPORTANT: Do not perform this operation if the
appliance has stuck on a cycle, until the water inside of
the machine has cooled sufficiently. Otherwise the water
that comes out of the drain pump filter may still be hot.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
o Clean the water inlet filter regularly to prevent blockage to the
water supply by foreign bodies.
oAlways pull the power plug out before cleaning.
1) Unscrew the inlet water pipe.
2) Clean with a gauze brush.
Winter storage
o You should install and/or store your appliance in a location where
it will not be subjected to freezing temperatures.
