Helpful hints and tips
Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing
instructions. Sort the laundry as follows:
whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates,
woollens.
Temperatures
95° or 90°
60°/50°
40°-30°Cold
Before loading the laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together.
Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the
wash.
New coloured items may run in the first wash;
they should therefore be washed separately
the first time.
Make sure that no metal objects are left
in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins,
pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners,
hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long
tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special
detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care. Remove
hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
washing programme charts.
General rules:
•
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
• Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
•
Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no
more than one third full.
for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths,
towels, tablecloths, sheets...)
for normally soiled, colour fast
garments (e.g. shirts, night
dresses, pyjamas....) in linen,
cotton or synthetic fibres and
for lightly soiled white cotton
(e.g. underwear)
for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including
synthetic fibres and woollens
bearing the label «pure new
wool, machine washable, nonshrink»
Washing a maximum load makes the most
efficient use of water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load
size.

Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just
water and detergent. It is therefore advisable
to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For
dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
special detergent then rub in the soap and
water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain
remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain; treat several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and
dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton
cloth.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a
rust removing product used cold. Be careful
with rust stains which are not recent since the
cellulose structure will already have been
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with ace-

tone
, lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above,
then treat stains with methylated spirits.
Treat any residual marks with bleach.
1) do not use acetone on artificial silk
electrolux 11
Red wine: soak in water and detergent,
rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then
rinse. Treat any residual marks with bleach.
Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten
the fabric first with acetone
1)
, then with acetic acid; treat any residual marks on white
fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the
choice of detergent and use of the correct
quantities to avoid waste and protect the environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities, can
upset the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(60°C max) and woollens
• liquid detergents, preferably for low tem-
perature wash programmes (60°C max)
for all types of fabric, or special for wool-
lens only.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
Prewash detergent is to be added
straight into the drum
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected. Pour the
liquid detergent into the detergent compartment immediately before you start the programme.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not
exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent
dispenser drawer .
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness
of the water in your area can be obtained
from the relevant water supply company, or
from your local authority.
A water softener must be added when
water has a medium-high degree of
hardness (from degree of hardness II).
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
The quantity of detergent can then always be adjusted to degree of hardness
I (= soft).

Care and cleaning
Important! You must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity supply, before
you can carry out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It
is a good idea to periodically use a water
softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent
the formation of lime deposits.
Maintenance Wash
With the use of low temperature washes it is
possible to get a build up of residues inside
the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash be
performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
• The drum should be empty of laundry.
• Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
• Use a normal measure of detergent, must
be a powder with biological properties.
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance
with soap and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer
The washing powder and additive dispenser
drawer should be cleaned regularly.
1. If necessary, the whole detergent drawer
can be taken out of the machine for
cleaning. You need to pull it firmly outwards, so that it comes free of retaining
stop.
14 electrolux
2. To remove the siphon at the inside edge
of the drawer for cleaning, you need to
press it inwards and pull it upwards at the
same time. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder.
When you put it back, press it downwards until you hear a distinct click.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme without any clothes in the drum.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces
of lime deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged. It is therefore a good idea to
clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose. Clean the filter using a hard bristle
brush. Tighten up the inlet hose.
Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the drawer, use a small
brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all
washing powder residue is removed from the
upper and lower part of the recess.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures
below 0°C, certain precautions should be
taken.
• Turn off the water supply.
• Unscrew the inlet hose from the supply
tap.
electrolux 15
• Select a wash programme, start the machine and let the programme run for a
short time.
• Interrupt the programme by turning the
programme selector to
position.
• Place the end of inlet and drain hoses
down low, into the waste gully (floor drain)
set into the floor. Make sure that the end
of the hose does not go below the water
level in the gully's (drain's) water tap.

Problem Possible cause/Solution
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much
foam) has been used.
• Reduce the detergent quantity or use another one.
There is water on the floor:
Unsatisfactory washing results:
The door will not open:
The machine vibrates is
noisy:
Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin:
No water is visible in the
drum:
Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings.
It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose;
check to see if it is damp.
• Check the water inlet hose connection.
The drain or inlet hose is damaged.
• Change it with a new one.
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.
• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.
• Use commercial products to treat the stubborn stains.
The correct temperature was not selected.
• Check if you have selected the correct temperature.
Excessive laundry load.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
• Wait until the indicator light for door locked has gone out.
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the water.
The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed
in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case ,redistribute the
load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select
the spinning programme.
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
If you are unable to identify or solve the problem, contact our service centre. Before telephoning, make a note of the model, serial
number and purchase date of your machine:
the Service Centre will require this information.

Installation
Lifting the machine
Be careful when lifting the machine. Incorrect
methods of lifting can cause physical injuries
and also increase the risk of damage to the
machine. Open the door and take hold of the
top inside of the door opening. You can also
lift the machine by gripping the rear overhang
of the top.
Warning! Never lift the machine by
gripping it’s control panel, door, or
detergent dispenser.
Unpacking
When supplied the washing machine is
packed using a number of locking devices/
packing pieces to prevent drum and motor
from damage in transit All transit bolts and
packing must be removed before using the
appliance.
You are advised to keep all transit devices so
that they can be refitted if the machine ever
has to be transported again.
1. Spread some of the polystyrene packag-
ing materials on the floor behind the machine and then lay the machine carefully
rear side down on them. Make sure that
no hoses are crushed in the process. Remove the polystyrene base and the support bar which the machine rests on.
2. Return machine to it's upright position
and remove the power supply cable and
the draining and inlet hose from the hose
holders on the rear of the appliance.
3. With a suitable spanner unscrew and remove the three screws and their spacers
on machine's rear.
4. The three holes must then be plugged
with the plastic plug caps supplied in the
bag containing the instruction booklet,
which can be found inside the drum.
electrolux 19
Caution! Never place cardboard, wood
or similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the
floor.
Water inlet
Warning! This appliance must be
connected to a cold water supply.
1. Connect the water inlet hose supplied
with the machine to a tap with a 3/4"
thread. Always use the hose supplied
with the appliance.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make
sure that air circulation around the machine
is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check
that the machine does not touch the wall or
furniture. Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the two front feet. If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level. Any
necessary adjustment can be made with a
spanner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine
during operation.
If necessary, use the suitable or supplied
restrictor (1/2”).
20 electrolux
Important! Do not use the hose from
your previous machine to connect to the
water supply.
2. The machine end of the inlet hose can be
turned in any direction. Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten
the ring nut again to prevent leaks.
Hooked over the edge of a sink using
the plastic hose guide supplied with
the machine.
In this case, make sure the end cannot come
unhooked when the machine is emptying.
This could be done by tying it to the tap with
a piece of string or attaching it to the wall.
In a sink drain pipe with a trap.
The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is
too short and you do not wish to move the
tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer
hose specially designed for this type of use.
Important! Before connecting up the
machine to new pipework or to pipework that
has not been used for some time, run off a
reasonable amount of water to flush out any
debris that may have collected in the pipes.
Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be positioned
in three ways:
650-800 mm
The drain hose can be connected directly into the pipe (e.g. beneath a washtub or sink),
above the water trap. The drain hose must
be arranged so that some part of it’s length
is routed up to a level corresponding to the
top edge of the tub and fixed in place there.
Directly into a drain pipe at a height of not
less than 65 cm and not more than 80 cm.
Their must be an air gap around and below
the end of drain hose. This means that the
internal diameter of the standpipe must be
larger than the outer diameter of the hose.
40 mm
650-800 mm
electrolux 21
The hose must not be sticked into the standpipe more than 50 mm and it has to be fixed
in this position. The drain hose must not be
kinked.
The drain hose can be extended up to total
3,5 m. For the extension piece use a hose
with an internal diameter at least as large as
that of the machine's own hose. Use a suitable hose connector.
Information on the electrical connection is
given on the rating plate on the inner edge of
the appliance door.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required, also taking into account any other appliances
in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed
socket.

Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow
these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed
without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is
protected too!).
• The machine works more economically if it
is fully loaded.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and
limited soiling can be removed; the laundry
can then be washed at a lower temperature.
• Measure out detergent according to the
water hardness, the degree of soiling and
the quantity of laundry being washed.
