machine, please take the following precautions:

This washing machine comes with a
manual that includes operating, maintenance
and installation instructions. Please read all
the instructions before using the washing
machine.

Do not wash items that have previously
been cleaned, washed, soaked or treated
with petrol, solvents for dry cleaning, other
inflammable substances or explosives, as
they produce fumes that could catch fire or
explode.

Do not add petrol, solvents for dry cleaning
or other inflammable or explosive substances
to the wash water as they produce fumes
that could catch fire or explode.

Do not repair or replace any part of the
washing machine or try to carry out any type
of servicing unless it is recommended in the
maintenance instructions in the manual.

Do not climb onto the machine or stand

on the open hatch door.

installation and assembly

CONNECTION TO THE

MAINS WATER SUPPLY

The water supply hose is inside the drum:

a Connect the bent end of the hose to the

threaded inlet of the electrovalve located
at the rear of the washing machine.

b Connect the other end of the hose to

the water intake. Then securely tighten
the connection nut.

It is important that the drain hose
bend is correctly fastened to the
outlet, to prevent any risk of it
becoming detached and causing
flooding.

If your washing machine has a hot
water intake, connect the hose with
the red threaded end to the hot water
tap, and to the electrovalve with the
red filter.

The washing machine must be
connected to the mains water supply,

Important

using the new supply hoses supplied
with the appliance. Do not use water
supply hoses that have been used
before. For your washing machine to
work properly, the mains water
pressure must be between 0.05 and
1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/cm

2

).

DRAINAGE

CONNECTION

a It is recommended that you have a fixed

drainage outlet 50 to 70 cm from the
floor.
Avoid the drain hose being too tight,
kinked or restricted.

IT TO THE MAINS ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

installation and assembly

LEVELLING

Use the adjustable feet to level the
washing machine. This will reduce
the noise level and prevent it from
moving during use.

Do not bring the feet too far out, you
will achieve better stability.

Important

You need to use a spanner for the
models that have a nut.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Consult the specifications plate located on the
hatch door of the washing machine before
making the electrical connections. Ensure that
the voltage reaching the plug is the same as
that on the plate.

Do not remove the specifications plate.
The information on it is important.

It is very important to correctly earth the
washing machine. The electrical
installation, plug, socket, fuses or
automatic switch and counter must be
correctly dimensioned for the maximum
power indicated on the specifications
plate.

Important

Do not plug the washing machine plug
into the socket with wet or damp hands.

To remove the power cord, pull on the
body of the plug.

If the power cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a cord or special unit provided
by either the manufacturer or your after­sales service.

With built-in washing machines, the plug
must be accessible after installation.

74

PRE-CLEANING

4

PRE-CLEANING

When your washing machine has been
correctly installed, we recommend that you
pre-clean the machine.

This is to check that the installation, the
connections and the drainage are all correct,
and to thoroughly clean the inside of the
washing machine before any wash
programmes are run (see the operating
instructions on the following pages).

a Select the normal programme at 60ºC.

b Press the Start/Stop button.

GARMENTS FOR
WASHING

PREPARATION

Before placing the clothes in the
drum, make sure all the pockets are
empty.

Any small objects may block the drain
pump.

Important

Important

SORTING THE CLOTHES

a Sort the clothes according to fabric

and how they are made:

We recommend using the delicate
programmes for sensitive fabrics. There
is a special wool programme for
woollens.

b Sort clothes according to how soiled

they are.

• Wash lightly soiled garments using a
short programme.

• Use a programme without prewash
for medium-soiled garments.

• Wash heavily soiled garments using a
long programme with prewash.

Prewash
Wash

Before using the drying
programme, first check
the label on the garment
to make sure it can be
tumble dried.

Make sure
beforehand
that your
woollens can
be machine­washed.

Wash

a Sort your clothes according to colour.

Wash whites and coloured separately.

We recommend loading the washing
machine to its full capacity. This
means savings on water and energy.

Whenever possible, we recommend
that you wash garments of different
sizes within the same wash
programme. This improves the
washing action and also aids the
correct distribution of the garments
in the drum when spin-drying, and

Important

the washing machine will therefore
be quieter.

It is a good idea to put small garments
in a wash bag.

using the appliance and practical tips

DETERGENT AND

ADDITIVES

a Your washing machine’s detergent

dispenser has three compartments.

b Put the detergent or additive into the

detergent dispenser before starting the
wash programme.

c Liquid detergents may also be used in

this washing machine. An optional
detergent dispenser is to be used for
this, which can be obtained from the
Technical Service Network.

Place this optional dispenser inside the

wash compartment.

The level of liquid must never be
higher than the MAX mark printed on
the dispenser wall.

Important

Remember that the amount of detergent to
be used will always depend on:

The amount of clothes to be washed.
How heavily the clothes are soiled.

The hardness of the water (Information on
water hardness in your area can be obtained
from the competent local authorities).

We recommend the use of a
decalcifying product if the water
hardness is high in your area.

Important

eco-note

Remember that concentrated detergents
exist which are more environment- and
nature-friendly.

The use of more detergent than
necessary will not improve you
washing results, and apart from costing

you money it will have a negative effect

on the preservation of the

environment.

We therefore recommend you follow
the detergent manufacturer’s
instructions.

PROGRAMME

PHASES

Once started, current programme status and
time remaining till completion can be
ascertained from the screen.

The active phases will appear successively at
the top of the display as the programme
progresses. The time remaining until the end
of the programme will also appear on the
display. It updates at regular intervals, but not
minute by minute.

Any option button can be selected provided
the wash phase in which it takes effect has
not been passed and when the programme
accepts the option.

Pressing the start/stop button during the wash

If the programme is changed on the
selector dial during the washing and
drying process, the washer-dryer will
go onto PAUSE status and the
programme will be cancelled.

If you need to add or remove a
garment, press the start/stop button
and make sure that the water level is
not above the door overflow level and

Important

that the temperature inside is not
high. Press the start/stop button again
to restart the wash from the same
cycle phase it had stopped at.

POWER CUTS

If there is a power cut, the washing machine
will continue to operate from the point at which
it stopped when power is reconnected (its
memory lasts for a few hours).

Level the washing machine by adjusting the

feet to reduce the noise caused by spin-drying.

Try and wash clothes of different sizes in
the same wash programme to favour the
distribution of the clothes inside the drum
during spin-drying.

All the models have a safety system for
spin-drying that prevents spin-drying from
being carried out if the distribution of the
clothes inside the drum is too concentrated.
This prevents the appliance from vibrating too
much.
If you find that the clothes are not properly
wrung out, try spin-drying them again after
having distributed the clothes more evenly in
the drum.

MAINTENANCE

After each wash, leave the door open
for a while to allow the air to circulate
freely inside the machine.

From time to time, depending on the
hardness of your water, it is
recommendable to run a full wash cycle
using a decalcifying product. This will

extend the life of your washing
machine.

The washing machine should be
disconnected from the mains
electricity supply before any cleaning
or maintenance is carried out.

safety and troubleshooting

Why doesn’t the washing
machine take in water?

Why doesn’t the washing
machine drain or spin-dry?

Why doesn’t the washing
machine spin-dry?

Indicator F01, no water coming in, this may be due to
a cut in the water supply, a tap turned off or a blocked
water inlet filter.

The possible solutions are as follows: wait for the water
supply to be reconnected, turn on the tap, or remove
the water inlet hose and clean the filter.
If this failure is detected, F01 will appear on the display.

The reasons for the F02 indicator may be the following:
washing machine drain pump blocked, building drainage
pipes blocked, or incorrect pump electrical connection.

Solution: if the pump is blocked, gain access to it as
described in section 2, maintaining and cleaning the
appliance.
If this failure is detected, F02 will appear on the display.

This may be due to an uneven distribution of clothes
in the drum and may cause an excessive level of
vibrations.

The solution is to select a spin-drying programme.
If this failure is detected, C3 will appear on the display.

Why can’t I see any water in
the drum during the wash?

This is due to the fact that the washing machine is provided
with a system which is able to adapt to the load and type
of fabrics, adjusting the levels of water and energy used,
in order to preserve the environment.
So, although the water level you can see through the hatch
may look low, there is no cause for concern as washing
and rinsing efficiency will still be optimum.

89

safety and troubleshooting

Why is there still some water
in the dispenser?

Why can’t I open the hatch
immediately after the wash
has finished?

Why doesn’t the remaining
time shown on the clock
coincide with the real time
left until the selected cycle
finishes?

Other indications

This may be because the dispenser needs cleaning. This
simple operation is described in Maintaining and cleaning

the appliance.
1- Cleaning the detergent dispenser.

Washing machines today are provided with safety systems
for users. One of them is that the washing machine cannot
be opened until it is certain that the drum is quite still. This
is why the hatch cannot be opened for 2 minutes.

This time is for guidance purposes only and may be affected
by the conditions under which the selected programme is
being run, e.g. initial water temperature, size of load or
unbalance caused by the garments during spin drying.

The washing machine can detect other indications. When
this happens a number of other indicators appear on the
display: F05, F06..., F10. If this happens, call the Official
Technical Service.

INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT DISPOSAL OF WASTE ELECTRICAL AND
ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES

When your appliance is of no further use, it should
not be disposed of together with general domestic
waste.

It can be taken, free of charge, to a specific waste
collection centre, run by your local authority, or
dealers who provide this service.

Disposing of waste domestic appliances separately
means avoiding possible negative consequences
for the environment and health, derived from
incorrect disposal. This will enable the materials
in them to be treated and recycled, obtaining
important savings in energy and resources.

To highlight the obligation of collaborating with
selective waste collection, the product is marked
with a symbol to warn against using traditional
containers for disposing of the appliance.

For further information, contact
your local authority or the shop
where you purchased the product.
