3. PRACTICAL TIPS

Load tips

WARNING: when sorting laundry, make sure:

- have eliminated metallic objects such as hair clips, pins, coins, from laundry;

- to have buttoned pillow cases, closed zips, tied loose belts and long robe ribbons;

- to have removed rollers, hooks or clips from curtains;

- to have carefully read clothing washing labels;

- to have removed any persistent stains using specific detergents.

When washing rugs, bedcovers or other

heavy clothing, we recommend you avoid the spinning cycle.

To wash wool, make sure the item can be

machine washed. Check the fabric label.

Helpful suggestions for the user

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance.

Maximise The Load Size

Achieve the best use of energy, water,

detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

Do you need to pre-wash?

For heavily soiled laundry only!

SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

Is a hot wash required?

Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak

dried in stains in water before washing to

reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme. Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

Before using a drying programme…

SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before using a drying programme.

Following is a quick guide with tips and recommendations on detergent use at the various temperatures. In any case, always read the instructions on the detergent for correct use and doses.

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 specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.

For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.

Page 11

4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To clean the washing machine exterior, use a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol and/or solvents. To maintain a good wash performance we recommend that the soap drawer and pump filters are regularly cleaned. A monthly service wash, using a proprietary cleaner is also recommended.

Remove and clean the filter; when finished, replace it turning it clockwise. The filter handle will be locked when it is not possible to turn any further and the handle is horizontal. Smearing a small amount of liquid soap on the filter seal will help refitting.

Repeat the previous steps in reverse

order to reassemble all parts.

Drawer cleaning

We recommend you clean the drawer to avoid accumulating detergent and additive residue.

To do this, extract the drawer using slight force, clean it with running water and reinsert it in its housing.

Ensure the siphon cap is correctly refitted.

Filter cleaning

The washing machine comes with a special filter able to trap large residue, such as buttons or coins, which could clog the drain.

Only available on certain models: pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and drain the water into a container.

Ensure all the water has been emptied

from the drum.

Before unscrewing the filter, we recommend you place an absorbent cloth under it to keep the floor dry. A small amount of water will come out of the filter as you remove it - this is normal.

Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the limit stop.

Suggestions for moves or prolonged disuse

Should the washing machine be stored in an unheated room for a long period of time, drain all water from tubes.

Unplug the washing machine.

Detach the tube from the drainage system and clip on the rear of the machine and lower it, fully draining water into a bowl.

Secure the drain tube with the drainage

system and clip on the rear of the machine when finished.

Keep the door glass and gasket clean.

The manufacturers warranty only covers faults within the product of a mechanical or electrical nature. Faults caused by handling, installation or miss use are not covered and may incur a charge for any repair visit to resolve.

Programmes selection

To clean different types of fabrics and various levels of dirt, the washing machine has specific programs to meet every need of washing (see table of programmes).

WASHING Easy Iron

This exclusive programme uses a steam treatment that allows you to reduce and relax the creases reaching the ideal moisture level easier ironing. Through a dedicated button it’s possible to select three different levels of intensity, customizing for dry or wet items, and accordingly on the type of fabric.

Synthetics

The washing and rinsing optimise the speed and rhythm of the drum action and water levels. The gentle spin, ensures a reduced formation of creases in the fabric.

Baby Care

This program allows you to wash all baby clothes getting a perfect clean and sanitizing effect, setting the temperature at 60°C minimum. To optimize the result of the sanitizing effect we recommend the use o powder detergent.

Daily 59 Min.

This specially designed programme maintains the high quality wash performance whilst greatly reducing the wash time. The programme is designed for a reduced load (see table of programmes).

Rapid (14/30/44 Min.)

Washing cycle suggested for low loads and slightly dirty. With this program it is recommended to reduce the quantity o detergent normally used, in order to avoid unnecessary waste. Selecting the RAPID program and acting on the button you can choose one of three programs available.

Cottons

This program is suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and it is the most efficient program in terms of combined energy and wate consumptions for washing cotton laundry.

Whites + Prewash

This programme has been designed to remove the stronger stains from cotton white clothes. The prewash guarantees the tough dirt removal. Add into compartment "1" a quantity of detergent equal to 20% o that used for main wash.

Rinse

This program performs 3 rinses with an intermediate spin (which can be reduced o excluded by using the appropriate button) . I is used for rinsing any type of fabric, for example after a wash carried out by hand.

Drain + Spin

The program completes the drain and a maximum spin. It is possible to delete o reduce the spin with the SPIN SPEED button.

Delicates

This program has reduced periods of drum rotation during the cycle and is particularly suitable or washing delicate fabrics. The wash cycle and rinses are carried out with a high level of water to ensure the best performance.

Wool/Silk

This programme allows a delicate washing cycle, particularly suited to garments specified as "Machine-Washable" Wool fabrics and laundry items made from Silk or specified as "Wash as Silk" on the fabric label.

DRYING

The drum changes direction during the drying cycle to prevent the laundry from tangling and producing even more drying. Cool air is used during the last 10/20 minutes of the drying cycle to minimize creasing.

WARNING: Dispensers used for concentrated powders and liquid detergents must be removed from the drum before commencing the tumble drying programmes.

OTHER ANOMALIES

Problem

Possible causes and practical solutions

The washing machine does not work / start

Make sure the product is plugged into a working supply socket.

Make sure power is on.

Make sure the wall socket is working, testing it with another appliance such as a lamp.

The door may not be correctly closed: open and close it again.

Check whether the required program was correctly selected and the start button pressed.

Make sure the washing machine is not in pause or time delay mode.

Water leaked on the floor near the washing machine

This may be due to a leak from the seal between the tap, supply hose and fill valve; in this case, replace it and tighten the hose connections correctly.

Make sure the front filter is correctly closed.

The washing machine does not spin

The machine is fitted with a detection system that protects the load and product from damage if the load is not balanced before spinning. This may result in:-

• The machine attempts to balance the load, increasing the time of spin.

• Reduction of the speed of spin to decrease vibrations and noise.

• The spin cycle aborting to protect the machine and load.

If this is experienced remove the load de-tangle it, reload it and restart the spin program.

This could be due to the fact that water has not been completely drained: wait a few minutes. If the problem persists, see Error 3 section.

Some models include a "no spin" function: make sure it is not selected.

Check which options are selected and their effect on the spin cycle.

Excessive detergent can impede the spin cycle, ensure the correct amount of detergent is being used.

Strong vibrations / noises are heard during the spin cycle

The washing machine may not be fully levelled: if necessary, adjust the feet as indicated in the specific section.

Make sure transport screws, rubber bungs and spacer tubes were removed.

Make sure there are no foreign objects inside the drum (coins, hinges, buttons, etc…).

The standard manufacturer warranty covers faults caused by electrical or mechanical faults in the product due to an act or omission of the manufacturer. If a fault is found to be caused by factors outside the product supplied, miss-use or as a result of the instructions on use not being followed, a charge may be applied.

Page 29

The use of ecological detergents without phosphates may cause the following effects:

- cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is tied to the suspended zeolites which do not have negative effects on rinse efficiency.

- white powder (zeolites) on laundry at the end of the wash: this is normal, the powder is not absorbed by fabric and does not change its colour. To remove the zeolites, select a rinse programme. In the future consider using slightly less detergent.

- foam in the water at last rinse: this does not necessary indicate poor rinsing. Consider using less detergent in future washes.

- abundant foam: This is often due to the anionic surfactants found in the detergents which are hard to eliminate from laundry.

In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate

these effects: it will not help at all. We suggest conducting a maintenance wash using a proprietary cleaner.

If the problem persists or if you suspect a malfunction, immediately contact an Authorised Customer Service Centre.

It is always recommended to use original spare parts, that are available at our Authorised Customer Service Centres.
