2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 1 with a temperature of 40°C.

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 (4 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.

Personalisation

Setting the temperature

Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Table of wash cycles). The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash ( The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the maximum value set for each wash cycle.

Setting the spin speed

Turn the SPIN SPEED knob to set the spin speed for the selected wash cycle. The maximum spin speeds available for each wash cycle are as follows:

Wash cycles Maximum spin speed

Cottons 1600 rpm Synthetics 800 rpm Wool 600 rpm Silk drain only

The spin speed may be lowered, or the spin cycle can be excluded altogether by selecting the symbol The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a spin speed which is higher than the maximum speed set for each wash cycle.

Functions

The various wash functions available with this washing machine 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 12 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.

Easy iron

By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of the cycle the washing machine will perform slow rotations of the drum; the EASY IRON and START/ PAUSE indicator lights will flash (orange) and the the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button. For the Silk (10) wash cycle, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking and the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash (orange) and the RINSE phase will remain lit in a fixed manner.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, C, D, E.

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, C, D, E.

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, 10, 11, A, B, C, D, E.

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.

Bleach cycle

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

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

Shirts: use special wash cycle 9 to wash shirts in

various fabrics and colours. It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments and minimises the formation of creases. Silk: use special wash cycle 10 to wash all silk garments. We recommend the use of special detergent which has been designed to wash delicate clothes. Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 10. Wool: Hotpoint/Ariston is the only washing machine 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 washing machine, even those which state hand wash only

on the label. Wash cycle 11 therefore offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen garments in the washing machine (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 washing machine 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.

 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. 6 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max. 2,5 kg

Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

Wool: max. 1.5 kg

Precautions and tips

 This washing machine 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 washing machine 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 washing machine,

make sure the drum is empty.

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 washing machine (see figure).

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 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.

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

washing machine and help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washing machine

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 washing machine 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 washing machine (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.

the drain phase to be started manually.  The EASY IRON function has been activated: To complete the wash

cycle, press the START/PAUSE button (Personalisation).  The drain hose is bent (see Installation).  The drainage duct is clogged.

 The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see Installation).  The washing machine is not level (see Installation).  The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see Installation).

 The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see Installation).  The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see

Care and maintenance).  The drain hose is not fixed properly (see Installation).

 Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute

and then switch it back on again.

If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.

 The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the

text for washing machines or hand and machine wash, or the like).  Too much detergent was used.

Service

Before calling for Assistance:

 Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see Troubleshooting);  Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;  If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre using the telephone number

provided on the guarantee certificate.

För alla Test Institutes:

1) Tvättprov har utförts i enlighet med standard EN 60456: Ställ in programmet 6 med en temperatur på 60 °C.

2) Långt bomullsprogram: Ställ in programmet 1med en temperatur på 40 °C.

3) Kort bomullsprogram: Ställ in programmet 2 med en temperatur på 40 °C.

Speciella program

Hygieniskt program (program 6). Ett hygieniserande program med höga temperaturer som förutser att blekmedel används, med temperaturer över 60 °C.

För att bleka häll blekmedel, tvättmedel och tillsatser i respektive fack (se avsnittet Tvättmedelsfack). Natt program (program 7). Ett tyst program som kan köras på natten när energitaxan är lägre. Programmet har utarbetats för syntetiska och bomullsplagg. När programmet är klart stannar maskinen med vatten i trumman. Tryck på knappen START/PAUS för att starta centrifugeringen och tömningen. I annat fall startar maskinen centrifugeringen och vattentömningen automatiskt efter 8 timmar. Babycykel (program 8). Program som tvättar bort typiskt babysmuts samt garanterar att tvättmedlet försvinner från tvätten, för att förhindra att allergier uppstår på barnens känsliga hud. Programmet har utarbetats för att minska bakteriemängden genom att använda en större mängd vatten och optimera effekten från specifika hygieniserande tillsatser som används tillsammans med tvättmedlet. Programmet avslutas med att trumman roterar långsam för att undvika att veck bildas. Tryck på knappen START/ PAUS för att stänga av programmet. Snabbtvätt 30 (program 4) har utarbetats för att tvätta lätt smutsade plagg på kort tid: Programmet tar bara 30 minuter och gör att du på så sätt spar energi och tid. Om du ställer in program (4 på 30 °C) går det att tvätta olika material tillsammans (förutom ylle och silke) med en maxlast på 3 kg. Uppfräshning 15 (program 5) har utarbetats för att tvätta lätt smutsade plagg på kort tid: Programmet tar bara 15 minuter och gör att du på så sätt spar energi och tid. Om du ställer in program (5 på 30 °C) går det att tvätta olika material tillsammans (förutom ylle och silke) med en maxlast på 1,5 kg.
