“ALLERGY CARE” button

By pressing this button you can activate a special new wash cycle in the Cotton and Mixed
Fabrics programs, thanks to the new Sensor System. This option treats with care the fibres of

garments and the delicate skin of those who wear them.
The load is washed in a much larger quantity of water and this, together with the new combined
action of the drum rotation cycles, where water is filled and emptied, will give you garments which
have been cleaned and rinsed to perfection. The amount of water in the wash is increased so that
the detergent dissolves perfectly, ensuring an efficient cleaning action. The amount of water is also
increased during the rinse procedure so as to remove all traces of detergent from the fibres. This
function has been specifically designed for people with delicate and sensitive skin, for whom even
a very small amount of detergent can cause irritation or allergy.
You are advised to also use this function for children’s clothing and for delicate fabrics in general,
or when washing garments made of towelling, where the fibres tend to absorb a greater quantity of
detergent. To ensure the best performance for your wash, this function is always activated on the
Delicates and Woollens/Hand wash programs.

“COLD WASH” button

By pressing this button it is possible to transform every programme into a cold washing one,
without modifying other characteristics (water level, times, rythmes, etc...).
Curtains, small carpets, man made delicate fabrics, non coulor fast garments can be safely
washed thanks to this new device.

“SPIN SELECTION” button

The spin cycle is very important to remove as much water as possible from the laundry without
damaging the fabrics. You can adjust the spin speed of the machine to suit your needs.
By pressing this button, it is possible to reduce the maximum speed, and if you wish, the spin cycle
can be cancelled.
To reactivate the spin cycle press the button until you reach the spin speed you would like to set.
To prevent damage to the fabrics, it is not possible to increase the speed over that which is
automatically suitable during the selection of the program.

It is possible to modify the spin speed without to pausing the machine.

** STANDARD COTTON PROGRAMMES ACCORDING TO (EU) No 1015/2010 and No
1061/2010

COTTON PROGRAMME with a temperature of 60°C
COTTON PROGRAMME with a temperature of 40°C

These programmes are suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and they are the most
efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumptions for washing
cotton laundry.
These programmes have been developed to be compliant with the temperature on the wash
label on the garments and the actual water temperature may slightly differ from the declared
temperature of the cycle.

The 30 minute rapid programme can also be used as a prewash cycle in the case of
heavily soiled garments, before selecting the main wash programme.

13

Programme selector

For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has
different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see
table of washing cycle programmes).

RESISTANTS FABRICS

The Cotton programmes are designed for maximum washing and rinsing
efficiency. With spin cycles in between, the programme guarantees the
laundry is rinsed perfectly. The final spin cycle ensures laundry is spun dry
as much as possible up to the maximum speed.

MIXED AND SYNTHETIC FABRICS

The main wash and the rinse gives best results thanks to the rotation
rhythms of the drum and to the water levels.
A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.

SPECIAL DELICATE FIBRES

This is a new wash cycle which alternates washing and soaking and is
particularly recommended for very delicate fabrics.
The wash cycle and rinses are carried out with high water levels to
ensure best results.

WOOL & HAND WASH PROGRAMME

This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments
specified as “Machine-Washable” Wool fabrics and laundry items
specified as “Hand Wash only” on the fabric label. The programme has
a maximum
fabric conditioner, and a slow spin.

"EcoMix" PROGRAMME

This innovative programme, allows you to wash different fabrics and
colours together, such as cottons, synthetics and mixed fabrics at only
20°C and provides an excellent cleaning performance.Consumption on
this program is about 40% of a conventional 40°C. cottons wash.

temperature of 30°C and concludes with 3 rinses, one for

14

SPIN & DRAIN

The spin programme completes the spin at the maximum spin speed, this
can be reduced by using the Spin Speed option button or excluded if you
want drain only.

SPECIAL “RINSE” PROGRAMME

programme carries out three rinses with a intermediate spin

This
(which can be reduced or excluded by using the correct button). It can
be used for rinsing any type of fabric, eg. use after hand-washing.

DAILY WASH 30°C – FAST 14’

A complete washing cycle (wash, rinse and spin), able to wash in
approximately 14 minutes:

- a maximum load of 1 kg;

- lightly soiled fabrics (cotton and mixed fabrics)
We recommend, with this programme, a 20% detergent loading dose
(compared to the normal one), in order to avoid detergent waste.

DAILY WASH 30°C – FAST 30’

A complete washing cycle (wash, rinse and spin), able to wash in
approximately 30 minutes:

- a maximum load of 2 kg;

- lightly soiled fabrics (cotton and mixed fabrics)
We recommend, with this programme, a 20% detergent loading dose
(compared to the normal one), in order to avoid detergent waste.

WASH 59’

This specially designed programme maintains the high quality wash
performance whilst greatly reducing the wash time. The progrramme is
designed for a maximum load of 3 kg with a temperature of 40°C and
concludes with 2 rinses and a high speed spin sequence.

Auto half load

The washing machine is fitted with a self adjusting water level system.
This system enables the machine to use the amount of water needed to wash and rinse the
laundry in relation to the particular load.
This results in a reduction of the water and electricity used, without in any way compromising
the washing and rinsing performance.
In fact the amount of water and electricity used will always be appropriate for the clothes load.
The washing machine automatically ensures excellent washing results at minimum cost whilst
respecting the environment .

15

Detergent drawer

The detergent drawer is split into 2 compartments:

- the compartment labelled "I" is for main wash detergent.

- the compartment labelled " " is for special additives,
fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc;

NOTE:
Some Detergents are Difficult to
utilise. Ensure to use an in drum
dispenser if recommended by
the detergent Manufacturer.

Note: only put liquid products in the compartment
labelled “ ”.

P

16

Detergents, washing aids and amounts to use

Choice of detergent
General purpose detergents

- Powder detergents, for a thorough wash, with bleaching agent, particularly suitable for

use in hot wash programmes (60°C and over), for heavily soiled and stained laundry.

- Liquid detergents, particularly suitable for grease stains, such as greasy skin marks,

cosmetics and oil.
These detergents are not suitable for washing stained laundry, as they do not contain
bleach.

- Biological detergents, not all the products available give a really thorough wash.

Additional laundry aids

- Water softener, means less detergent can be used where water hardness is classed as

hard to very hard.

- Prewash substances, for the programmed treatment of stains prior to the main wash.

Using them means the subsequent wash can be at a low temperature or with bleach-free
detergents.

- Fabric softener, prevents static build-up in synthetic fabrics and softens fabrics.

If you own a tumble dryer, clothes are softened even without the use of a fabric softener.

Do not put solvents in the washing machine!

Keep detergents and other laundry products out of children’s reach.
Before pouring in the detergent check that there are no foreign bodies in the detergent
drawer.
Dosage details are usually shown on the detergent packaging. Follow those instructions.

17

Dosages

Only use detergents which are suitable for use in a washing machine.
You will obtain the best results from your wash with the minimum use of chemical products
and the best care for your laundry if you take into consideration the degree of soiling as well
as the type of detergent to choose.
The amount of detergent to use depends on:

- water hardness: depending on the hardness of the water and the type of detergent used, it
is possible to reduce the amount of detergent.

- the degree of soiling: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent used depending on
the degree of soiling.

- amount of laundry: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent when washing only a
small amount of laundry.

Dosage for powder detergent

For normal and low concentration detergents: for normally soiled laundry choose a
programme without prewash.
Put the detergent in compartment “I” of the drawer.
For heavily soiled laundry, choose the prewash programme before the main wash.
When using water softeners, first put in the detergent, then add the softener to compartment “I”.
For highly concentrated detergents not in single dose format, follow what is shown on pack
exactly as regards type and amount of dosage.
To avoid the difficulty of checking if the detergent has been taken up, use the dosage aids
provided in the detergent packaging.

Liquid detergent dosage

Liquid detergents may be used in accordance with the instructions on the relevant
packaging, for all programmes without prewash, by using the special container which is
placed in the drum or, for those models that have it, in the special insert for liquid detergents.

18

Useful advice for users

Tips on using your domestic appliance in the most environmentally-friendly and economical
way

Do a full load in your washing machine

To prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent we recommend that you put a
full load in your washing machine, not exceed the recommended maximum load size.
Up to 50% energy saving can be made with one full load compared to two half load washes

When is prewashing really needed?

Only with particularly dirty loads!
Energy savings of 5 to 15% are made by not selecting the prewash option for normal soiled
laundry.

Which wash temperature should you choose?

Using stain removers before machine washing reduces the need to wash at temperatures
over 60°C.
Energy savings of up to 50% can be made by using a 60°C wash temperature rather than
90°C

19

Main wash

Sorting the laundry

- It is recommended you wash only items which are machine washable with water and
detergent and not dry-clean items.

- If you need to wash rugs, bedspreads or other heavy items, it is best not to spin them.

- Sort the laundry according to fabric type, degree of soiling and wash temperature: Always
follow the wash care advice on the garment label for the most suitable care and
treatment of the laundry

Laundry for hot wash

Coloured, easy-care materials

Delicates and wool

Wash by hand

Items labelled with the following symbol are not suitable for machine washing:

Dry clean

For very delicate items, such as net curtains, underwear, tights etc., you are advised to
use a laundry net or wash bag.

- Woollen items must be labelled with the "Pure New Wool" symbol to be washed in the
machine, and must also be labelled "non-matting" or "machine washable".

- Colour often leaks from new coloured items.
This can then colour other lighter items being washed.
We therefore recommend that coloured items should be washed for the first time
separately.
For future washes, colourfast items can only be washed with whites up to 40°C.

Note: when sorting laundry

- check there are no metal objects in the laundry
(such as paper clips, safety pins, pins, coins
etc...);

- button up pillowcases, fasten zips, hook & eye
fasteners, belts and long dressing gown cords;

- remove curtain hooks;

- pay close attention to the labels on items

- if you notice stubborn stains whilst sorting the
laundry, remove them using a special detergent or
a special stain remover.

- We recommend that you do not do a full load of towelling items only as these become too
heavy since they absorb a lot of water.

20

The correct way to wash

Preparing the laundry
A) Select the laundry.

Loading the laundry
B) Open the porthole.

C) Put the laundry in the washing machine.

Close the porthole again, ensuring that no items of
laundry are obstructing the lock.

Putting detergent in machine
D) Open the drawer, choose the detergent and put in

the correct amount, according to the manufacturer’s
instructions and the advice on page 17.
Add any other laundry aids (see page 17). Close the
drawer again.

Selecting the wash programme

Refer to the programme guide or the programme descriptions on the machine to select the
most suitable programme.
Turning the selector knob, the required programme is activated.

Press additional function buttons (if required).

Check that the tap is turned on and that the discharge hose is positioned correctly.

Press the "Start/Pause" button.
When the "Start/Pause" button is pressed the machine sets the working sequence in motion.

The programme carries out with the programme selector stationary on the selected
programme till cycle ends.

Warning: If there is any break in the power supply while the machine is operating, a special
memory stores the selected programme and, when the power is restored, it continues where
it left off.

When the programme is finished

The word “End” will appear on the display.
Wait for the door lock to be released (about 2 minutes after the programme has finished).
The "Door Security" indicator light will go out.
Switch off the machine by turning the programme selector on the “OFF” position. Open the
door and remove the laundry. Turn off the tap.

21

Cleaning and routine maintenance

Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your washing machine,
just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance:

- Cleaning the drawer compartments.

- Cleaning the filter.

Cleaning the drawer compartments

Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the
compartments for bleaching detergents and additives
occasionally.
A) To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but

without forcing them.

B) Clean everything in the compartment under running

water.

C) Put everything back in its proper place.

Cleaning the filter

The washing machine is fitted with a special filter for
handling large deposits which could block the discharge
hose (coins, buttons etc.) and which can, therefore, be
easily retrieved.

We recommend that the filter be cleaned at least
once a month.

The cleaning operation is as follows:

1) Open the lid as shown in picture.

2) Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops
in the vertical position.
Remove and clean.

3) After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end
of the filter clockwise. Then follow all procedures
described above in reverse order.

4) Close the lid.

Attention: if the filter needs cleaning while there is
washing still in the drum, follow the instructions on the
following page to empty the water. This will prevent
excessive loss of water via the filter.

22

Cleaning the door glass

Regularly clean the door glass with a damp cloth. A build
up of soiling and residues from the water may result in
water leaking from the door.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the
surface.

Transporting the appliance or long
periods when appliance is not in
use

If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for
long periods in unheated places, all remaining water
must be completely removed from the hoses.
Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and

No water fill.

No pump out.

Machine overfilled with water.

The machine makes a
different noise when
spinning! This is because it
has a brush motor for better
performance.

Check water supplies are on.

Check drain is clear.
Check drain hose is not kinked.

Turn off water supply to machine.
Call service.

Only a small level of water can be
seen in the drum! This is because
new machines do not use much
water, yet achieve the same
standard of washing and rinsing.

Note:

The use of environmentally-friendly, phosphate-free detergents can have the following effects:

- waste water from rinsing may be cloudier because of the presence of zeolites held in
suspension, without the rinse performance being adversely affected;

- presence of white powder (zeolites) on laundry after washing, which is not absorbed by
the fabric and does not alter the colour of the fabric.

- The presence of foam in the final rinsing water is not necessarily an indication of poor
rinsing.

- Anionic surfactants used in washing detergent formulae often prove to be difficult to
remove from the laundry itself and, even in small quantities, can still cause considerable
foam production.

- Carrying out more rinse cycles does not serve any purpose in such cases.

Water connection

The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new
hose-sets.
The old hose-sets should not be re-used.
The machine has an inlet hose with 3/4" B.S.P threaded end
connection to attach between the threaded connector on the
appliance and the cold water supply.

This machine only uses cold water, therefore
only one hose is needed to connect to the cold
water supply. Do not connect to the hot supply.
Cold fill is an energy efficient system. Only the
water required for the washing is heated.There
is no loss of heat in the pipeline from a hot
water tank or boiler to the machine.

28

min 4 cm

Note: it is advisable to turn off the tap after each wash
to isolate the washing machine from the water supply.

For the washing machine to function properly the terminal end of the discharge hose (mouth)
must be at a minimum of 50 cm and a maximum of 85 cm from the ground.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

After installation, the appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
If the plug we supply does not fit

CUT IT OFF AND DESTROY IT!

Recommendations on the use of detergent at various temperatures

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C or above and a
normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures
provide excellent results. For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be
appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling. Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast
fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured
fabrics with light levels of soiling. For washing at temperatures below 40°C we recommend the use of
liquid detergents or detergents speci cally labeled as suitable for low temperature washing. For washing
wool or silk, only use detergents speci cally formulated for these fabrics. For dosage amounts please
follow the instructions on the detergent package label.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of any printing mistakes in
this booklet. The manufacturer also reserves the right to make appropriate
modifications to its products without changing the essential characteristics.
