Installation

 This instruction manual should be kept in a safe

place for future reference. If the washer-dryer is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the instruction manual remains with the machine so that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/herself with its operation and features.

 Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital

information relating to the safe installation and operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Remove the washer-dryer from its packaging.

2. Make sure that the washer-dryer has not been damaged during the transportation process. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.

3. Remove the 4 protective screws (used during transportation) and the rubber washer with the corresponding spacer, located on the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs provided.

5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need them again if the washer-dryer needs to be moved to another location.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise and prevent it from shifting while it is operating. If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space underneath the washer-dryer.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the end of the inlet hose and screw the latter onto a cold water tap with a 3/4

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

Before performing the connection, allow the water to run freely until it is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet hose to the washer-dryer by screwing it onto the corresponding water inlet of the appliance, which is situated on the top righthand side of the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

 Packaging materials should not be used as toys for

children.

Levelling

1. Install the washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or anything else.

2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured in relation to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

 The water pressure at the tap must fall within the

values indicated in the Technical details table (see next page).

 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a

specialised shop or an authorised technician.

 Never use second-hand hoses.

 Use the ones supplied with the machine.

Connecting the drain hose

65 - 100 cm

Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a drainage duct or a wall drain located at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

 Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

 The cable should not be bent or compressed.

 The power supply cable must only be replaced by

authorised technicians.

3) Short wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 2 with a temperature of 40°C.

Specials wash cycles

Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 6). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach. Pour the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled Detergent dispenser drawer). Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 7). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in the drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin cycle and drain the water automatically after 8 hours. Baby cycle (wash cycle 8). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent. At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button. Mix 30(wash cycle 4) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg. Mix 15(wash cycle 5) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.

Functions

The various wash functions available with this washer-dryer will help to achieve the desired results, every time. To activate the functions:

1. Press the button corresponding to the desired function;

2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated. Note: If the indicator light flashes rapidly, this signals that this particular function may not be selected in

conjunction with the selected wash cycle.

Delay timer

This timer delays the start time of the wash cycle by up to 9 hours. Press the button repeatedly until the indicator light corresponding to the desired delay time switches on. The fifth time the button is pressed, the function will be disabled. N.B. Once you have pressed the START/PAUSE button, the delay time may only be decreased if you wish to modify it.

 This option is enabled with all programmes.

Extra rinse

By selecting this function, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, B, C.

Super Wash

Because a greater quantity of water is used in the initial phase of the cycle, and because of the increased cycle duration, this function offers a high-performance wash.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, A, B, C.

1000-500

By selecting this function, reduces the spin speed.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 9, C, 11, 12, 13.

Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to environmental pollution.

 Do not use hand washing detergents because these

create too much foam.

Bleaching may only be performed in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2, 6. Pour the bleach into extra compartment 4; pour the detergent and softener into the corresponding compartments, then select one of the abovementioned wash cycles. This option is recommended only for very soiled cotton garments.

Preparing the laundry

 Divide the laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label

- the colours: separate coloured garments from

whites.  Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.  Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the

weight of the laundry when dry:

Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg

Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

Wool: max. 1.5 kg

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g 1 pillow case 150-200 g 1 tablecloth 400-500 g 1 bathrobe 900-1200 g 1 towel 150-250 g

Garments requiring special care

Silk: use special wash cycle 9 to wash all silk

garments. We recommend the use of special detergent which has been designed to wash delicate clothes. Curtains: these should be folded and placed inside the bag provided. Use wash cycle 9. Wool: Hotpoint/Ariston is the only washer-dryer manufacturer to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by the Woolmark Company, which means that all woollen garments may be washed in the washerdryer, even those which state hand wash only on the label. Wash cycle 10 therefore offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen garments in the washer-dryer (max. load 1.5 kg) and guarantees optimal performance.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

Anti-crease

This function interrupts the wash programme, and the washing is left to soak in water before the appliance is drained. It can only be used with programme 9 (Silk/Curtains) and helps to prevent the formation of creases. To complete the cycle press the START/PAUSE button.

Precautions and tips

 This washer-dryer was designed and constructed in

accordance with international safety regulations. The following information is provided for safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.

General safety

 This appliance was designed for domestic use only.  The washer-dryer must only be used by adults, in

accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.  Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with

wet or damp hands or feet.  Do not pull on the power supply cable when

unplugging the appliance from the electricity

socket. Hold the plug and pull.  Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while

the machine is in operation.  Do not touch the drained water as it may reach

extremely high temperatures.  Never force the porthole door. This could damage

the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent

accidental opening.  If the appliance breaks down, do not under any

circumstances access the internal mechanisms in

an attempt to repair it yourself.  Always keep children well away from the appliance

while it is operating.  The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

of two or three people and handle it with the utmost

care. Never try to do this alone, because the

appliance is very heavy.  Before loading laundry into the washer-dryer, make

sure the drum is empty.  During the drying phase, the door tends to get

quite hot.

separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Opening the porthole door manually

In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the laundry, proceed as follows:

1. remove the plug from the electrical socket.

2. make sure the water level inside the machine is

lower than the door opening; if it is not, remove excess water using the drain hose, collecting it in a bucket as indicated in the figure.

3. using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washer-dryer (see figure).

 Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have

been washed with flammable solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene).

 Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or

similar elastomers.

 Make sure that the water tap is turned on during

the drying cycles.

Disposal

 Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.  The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected

4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull downwards and open the door at the same time.

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and electricity supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This

will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the

washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it and

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washer-dryer

The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

Remove the dispenser by raising it and pulling it out (see figure). Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

Cleaning the pump

The washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug

the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washer-dryer (see figure);

2. unscrew the lid by rotating it anti-clockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;

Caring for the door and drum of your appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the lid back on;

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

 Never use second-hand hoses.

Instalare

 Este important sã pãstraþi acest manual pentru a-l

putea consulta în orice moment. În caz de vânzare, de cesiune sau de schimbare a locuinþei, acesta trebuie sã rãmânã împreunã cu maºina de spãlat pentru a informa noul proprietar cu privire la funcþionare ºi la respectivele avertismente.

 Citiþi cu atenþie instrucþiunile: veþi gãsi informaþii

importante cu privire la instalare, la folosire ºi la siguranþã.

Despachetare ºi punere la nivel

Despachetare

1. Scoaterea din ambalaj a maºinii de spãlat.

2. Controlaþi ca maºina de spãlat sã nu fi fost deterioratã în timpul transportului. Dacã este deterioratã nu o conectaþi ºi luaþi legãtura cu vânzãtorul.

3. Scoateþi cele 4 ºuruburi de protecþie pentru transport ºi cauciucul cu respectivul distanþier, situate în partea posterioarã (a se vedea figura).

O nivelare precisã conferã stabilitate maºinii ºi evitã vibraþii, zgomote ºi deplasãri pe timpul funcþionãrii. În cazul mochetelor sau a unui covor, reglaþi picioruºele astfel încât sã menþineþi sub maºina de spãlat un spaþiu suficient pentru ventilare.

Racorduri hidraulice ºi electrice

Racordarea furtunului de alimentare cu apã

1. Introduceþi garnitura A în extremitatea tubului de alimentare ºi înºurubaþi-l la un robinet de apã rece

cu gura filetatã (a se vedea figura).

Înainte de conectare, lãsaþi apa sã curgã pânã când nu a devine limpede.

2. Conectaþi tubul de alimentare la maºina de spãlat, înºurubându-l la sursa de apã respectivã, amplasatã în partea posterioarã, sus în dreapta (a se vedea figura).

4. Închideþi orificiile cu dopurile din plastic aflate în dotare.

5. Pãstraþi toate piesele: pentru cazul în care maºina de spãlat va trebui sã fie transportatã, piesele vor trebui montante din nou.

 Ambalajele nu sunt jucãrii pentru copii!

Punere la nivel

1. Instalaþi maºina de spãlat pe o suprafaþã planã ºi rigidã, fãrã a o sprijini de ziduri, mobilã sau altceva.

2. Dacã podeaua nu este perfect orizontalã, compensaþi neregularitãþile deºurubând sau înºurubând picioruºele anterioare (a se vedea figura); unghiul de înclinare, mãsurat pe planul de lucru, nu trebuie sã depãºeascã 2°.

3. Fiþi atenþi ca furtunul sã nu fie nici pliat nici îndoit.

 Presiunea apei de la robinet trebuie sã fie cuprinsã

în valorile din tabelul Date tehnice (a se vedea pagina alãturatã).

 Dacã lungimea furtunului de alimentare nu este

suficientã, adresaþi-vã unui magazin specializat sau unui instalator autorizat.

 Nu folosiþi niciodatã tuburi folosite deja.

 Utilizaþi tuburile furnizate împreunã cu maºina.

Conectarea furtunului de golire

65 - 100 cm

Conectaþi furtunul de golire - fãrã a-l îndoi - la canalizare sau la racordul de golire prevãzut pe perete, la o înãlþime de 65 - 100 cm de sol;

 Nu folosiþi prelungitoare ºi prize multiple.

 Cablul nu trebuie sã fie îndoit sau comprimat.

 Cablul de alimentare trebuie sã fie înlocuit doar de

tehnicieni autorizaþi ai centrului de service ce apare scris pe certificatul de garantie emis de producator.

Atenþie! Producãtorul îºi declinã orice responsabilitate în cazul în care aceste norme nu se respectã.

Sprijiniþi-l de marginea cãzii sau chiuvetei ºi racordaþi ºina de ghidare din dotare la robinet (a se vedea figura). Capãtul liber al furtunului de golire nu trebuie sã rãmânã cufundat în apã.

 Nu se recomandã folosirea furtunurilor

prelungitoare; dacã este indispensabil, acestea trebuie sã aibã acelaºi diametru ca ºi furtunul original ºi nu trebuie sã depãºeascã 150 cm lungime.

Racordarea electricã

Înainte de a introduce stecherul în prizã, asiguraþi-vã ca:

 priza sã fie cu împãmântare ºi conform

prevederilor legale;

 priza sã poatã suporta sarcina maximã de putere

a maºinii, indicatã în tabelul Date Tehnice

(a se vedea alãturi);

 tensiunea de alimentare sã fie cuprinsã în valorile

indicate în tabelul Date Tehnice (a se vedea

alãturi);

 priza sã fie compatibilã cu stecherul maºinii de

spãlat. În caz contrar înlocuiþi stecherul.

 Maºina de spãlat nu trebuie instalatã afarã, nici

chiar în cazul în care spaþiul este adãpostit, deoarece este foarte periculoasã expunerea maºinii la ploi ºi furtuni.

Programe speciale

STERILIZARE (programul 6). Un program de igienizare la temperaturã ridicatã, care presupune folosirea decolorantului (temperatura este peste 60°C).

Pentru a decolora rufele, turnaþi decolorantul, detergentul ºi aditivii în sertarele corespunzãtoare (a se vedea paragraful Compartimentul pentru detergenþi). CICLU DE SPALARE NOCTURNA (programul 7). Este un ciclu cu zgomot redus, care vã permite folosirea maºinii pe timp de noapte. Programul a fost conceput pentru articolele sintetice ºi din bumbac. La încheierea ciclului, maºina se opreºte cu apã în cuvã; pentru a stoarce rufele ºi a goli apa apãsaþi tasta START/PAUZÃ, daca nu, dupã 8 ore maºina comandã automat stoarcerea ºi evacuarea apei. CICLU BABY (programul 8). Programul îndepãrteazã eficient atât mizeria care pãteazã în mod obiºnuit hainele copiilor cât ºi detergentul, în scopul de a evita apariþia unor alergii pe pielea delicatã a celor mici. Ciclul a fost conceput pentru a diminua încãrcarea bacterianã prin folosirea unei cantitãþi de apã mai mari ºi prin optimizarea aditivilor speciali de igienizare, adãugati la detergent. La încheierea ciclului de spãlare, maºina efectueazã o rotaþie lentã a cuvei, pentru a limita ºifonarea; pentru a termina ciclul, apãsaþi tasta START/PAUZÃ. MIX 30' (programul 4) a fost studiat pentru a spãla articolele puþin murdare, în mod rapid: dureazã doar 30 de minute ceea ce economiseºte energie ºi timp. Selectând programul (4 la 30°C) este posibilã spãlarea articolelor din materiale diferite (excluse lâna ºi mãtasea) cu o greutate maximã de 3 kg. MIX 15' (programul 5) a fost studiat pentru a spãla articolele foarte puþin murdare, în mod rapid: dureazã doar 15 de minute ceea ce economiseºte energie ºi timp. Selectând programul (5 la 30°C) este posibilã spãlarea articolelor din materiale diferite (excluse lâna ºi mãtasea) cu o greutate maximã de 1,5 kg.
