Extensions are inadvisable. In
case of absolute need, the
extension must have the same
diameter as the original hose
and must not exceed 150 cm
in length. In case of wall
draining pipes, their efficiency
must be checked by a qualified
technician. If the dwelling is on
one of the upper floors of a
building, there may be drain
trap problems causing the
washing machine to load and
unload water continuously.
In order to avoid such an
inconvenience, special anti­drain trap valves are available
in shops.

How to start the applianceHow to start the appliance

Putting your appliance
in place and moving it.

If your washing machine is
equipped with a special set of
retractable wheels you can
easy move it. To lower the
wheels and thus move the
appliance effortlessly, just pull
the lever, situated on the left­hand side beneath the base.
Once the appliance is in the
required position, put the lever
back in place. The washing
machine is now firmly in place.
See figure, just for equipped
models.

After installing your new washing machine, start a
wash cycle (with the appliance empty) by setting
programme "1" at 60 degrees C.

Starting the washing machine
in the right way is important for
the quality of your wash, for
preventing problems and for
lengthening the life of your
appliance. After loading your

This button allows you to interrupt
a programme (on position­symbol ) keeping the washing
soaking in water before the spin
cycle. It is a very useful button,
because it prevents delicate and
synthetic fabrics from creasing
(for example, when you cannot
take the washing out at the end
of the wash cycle, but only after a
few hours).
It can only be used in pro­grammes for Synthetic fabrics

- Red wine. Leave to soak with detergent, rinse and treat with acetic acid or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residue with
bleach.

- Blood. Fresh stains should be treated immediately with cold water. In the event of dry blood stains, leave to soak overnight
with a special detergent and then rub with soapy water.

- Dry grease stains. Moisten with turpentine, dab the stains with your fingertips and a cotton cloth, after placing the
garment on a soft surface.

- Rust. Oxysalt (can be found in a chemists) hot molten, or a cold anti-rust product. Old stains may have already damaged
the fabric: risk of holes

- Mould stains Treat with bleach, rinse thoroughly (only white and coloured garments resistant to chlorine).

- Oil paint. Moisten with detergent petrol, dab the stains after placing the garment on top of a soft cloth, then treat

repeatedly with the detergent.

- Ink and biro. Dab with cotton soaked in methyl alcohol or alcohol at 90°.

- Tar. Dab with fresh butter, rub in turpentine then wash immediately.

- Wax. Scrape away, then run a hot iron between two sheets of absorbent paper. Then rub in cotton with turpentine or

methyl alcohol.

- Chewing gum. Rub in nail polish remover and wipe with a clean rag.

- Mould. Cotton and white linen should be placed in a solution of 5 parts water, one bleach and a spoon of vinegar, then

washed immediately. For other white fabrics, use hydrogen peroxide at 10 volumes and wash immediately.

- Lipstick. Dab with ether on wool or cotton. Use trichlorethylene for silk.

- Nail polish. Place a sheet of absorbent paper on the side of the stain, wet it with nail polish remover, shifting the garment

as the sheet gradually changes colour.

- Grass. Dab with a wad of cotton soaked in methyl alcohol.

Cutting costs efficiently

FULL LOAD

The best way to save on energy, water, detergent and time is to use your washing machine,
washing a full recommended load.
A full load instead of two half loads allows you to SAVE up to 50% of energy.

USE LESS DETERGENT IF: you are washing few garments, the washing is only soiled
lightly, foam forms during washing or the water is not very hard, or soft even (please see
small table above with the degrees of water hardness). To find out how hard the water in
your area is, contact your local Water Works.

IS PRE-W ASHING STRICTL Y NECESSAR Y?

Only for extremely soiled garments.
Programming a wash WITHOUT pre-washing for lightly soiled or medium soiled garments
allows you to SAVE on detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15% of energy.

IS W ASHING WITH HOT WATER STRICTL Y NECESSAR Y?

Treating stains with a stain remover or soaking garments with dry stains in water before
washing can reduce the need to programme a wash using hot water.
Use a wash programme at 60° to SAVE up to 50% of energy.

BEFORE USING A DRYING CYCLE ...

Select a high speed spin cycle, where the spin speed can be adjusted, if the washing should
be dried in a tumble-dryer. A reduced water content in the washing allows you to SAVE
both time and energy in the drying programme.

Liquid or powder detergents
are sold together with special
containers that are to be placed
directly inside the washing

the instructions found on the

Never use hand wash
detergent, because it may form
too much foam, which could
damage the washing machine.
One last secret: when washing
with cold water, always reduce
the amount of detergent you
use: it dissolves less easily in
cold water than in hot water, so
part of it would be wasted.

the manufacturer's instructions.
The fabric softener is
automatically inserted into the
machine during the last rinse.
At the end of the wash
programme, some water will be
left in compartment 3. This is
used for the inlet of denser fabric
softeners into the machine, i.e.
to dilute the more concentrated
softeners.
Should more than a normal
amount of water remain in
compartment 3, this means the
emptying device is blocked,
thus interrupting the suction
effect of the device.

For cleaning instructions, see
page 13. Never pour fabric
softeners together with starch
into the dispenser, as the
overflow system could get
clogged.

the job. It is just as important for you to keep it in shape.

ourour

our

ourour

Your washing machine is
designed to last a lifetime
without any problems. A few
simple steps help keep it in
shape and last longer.

Firstly, you must turn off the
water tap after each wash:

the constant pressure of water
could warp a few of the
component parts.
In addition, by doing so, you
will avoid the risk of leaks when
no-one is at home.

If the water in your area is too
hard, use a deliming product

(water is hard if it often leaves
whitish stains around taps or
drains, especially of bath tubs.
For more accurate information
as to the type of water in your
system, call the local water
works or a local plumber).
Pockets must always be
emptied by removing even
coins, pins, badges and any
other hard object.
The washing machine exterior
should be cleaned with a cloth
dipped in lukewarm soapy
water.

It is important to wash

the detergent dispenser

regularly.

To prevent dried washing

powder from

accumulating, place the

dispenser under running

water for a few minutes.

Never exaggerate with
detergent doses.

Normal detergents already
contain deliming agents. Only
if the water is particularly hard,
that is, rich in lime content, do
we recommend the use of a
specific product at every wash.
A periodical wash cycle with a
dose of a deliming product,
without detergents or
washing, may prove useful.
Never use too much detergent
or additives because this
could cause an excess
amount of foam, scaling and
possible damage to the
component parts of your
washing machine.

The washing machine comes equipped with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any cleaning or maintenance. Small objects
may accidentally fall into the pump: coins, hair clips, loose buttons and other small items. T o avoid possible damage, they are
withheld in an accessible pre-chamber , situated at the lower end of the pump.

To access this pre-chamber, just remove the panel covering the
bottom of the washing machine (fig. 1); then lift the cover rotating it
anti-clockwise (fig. 2) and check its contents accurately .

The rubber hose

Check the rubber hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks,
replace it immediately. When you use your washing machine, water

Warning: make sure that the wash cycle has come to a full stop and unplug the appliance before removing the lid as well as before any

type of maintenance procedure. It is normal to find that a little water comes out after removing the lid. When replacing the panel, make
sure you insert the hooks situated at the bottom of the washing machine in the right slots before pushing it back against the appliance.

et facile à utiliser

Guide rapide

Découvrez ci-dessous les 11 sujets qui seront développés
dans les pages de ce manuel. Lisez, apprenez, amusez­vous: vous découvrirez un tas de petits secrets pour laver
mieux, avec moins defforts tout en augmentant la
longévité de votre lave-linge. Et surtout, en toute
sécurité .

1. Installation et déménagement (page 2)

Pour un bon fonctionnement du lave-linge, lopération la plus impor­tante après sa livraison ou après un déménagement, est sans aucun
doute son installation. Vérifiez toujours:

1. si linstallation électrique est conforme.

2. si les tuyaux darrivée et de vidange de leau sont bien raccordés

correctement. Ne jamais utiliser des tuyaux usés.

3. si le lave-linge est bien de niveau. Cest important: pour la

longévité de votre lave-linge et pour la qualité de votre lavage.

4. que toutes les vis de fixation du tambour, situées à l'arrière

du lave-linge, ont bien été enlevées.

2. Sécurité pour vous et vos enfants (page 3)

Vous y trouverez tous les conseils indispensables à votre sécurité et à
celle de votre famille. Cest ce quil y a de plus important.

7. Conseils utiles pour ne pas vous tromper (page 8)

3. Comment charger votre lave-linge et le mettre

en service (page 4)

Triez correctement votre linge: cest une opération importante dont
la réussite de votre lessive dépend entièrement. Apprenez tous les
trucs et tous les secrets pour bien trier votre lessive: les couleurs, les
textiles, la tendance à produire des peluches, voilà quels sont les
critères les plus importants.

4. Bien maîtriser le bandeau de commandes

(page 5 - 6)

Le bandeau de commandes de votre lave-linge est très simple.
Quelques commandes essentielles pour choisir les types de lavage,
du plus énergique, pour laver une combinaison de mécanicien,
jusquau plus délicat pour le cachemire. Apprenez à vous en servir,
vous laverez mieux et prolongerez la durée de vie de votre lave-linge.
Cest facile.

Autrefois, on suivait les bons conseils de grand-mère - et les matières
synthétiques nexistaient pas: il était donc facile de laver. Aujourdhui,
cest votre lave-linge qui vous donne de bons conseils et vous permet
même de laver laine et cachemire aussi bien quune blanchisseuse.

8. Le tiroir à produits lessiviels (page 10)

sigle du modèle, spécifications électriques et hydrauliques,
dimensions, capacité, vitesse dessorage et conformité aux normes
et aux directives italiennes et européennes.

Installation et déménagement

Quand votre lave­linge arrive

Que votre lave-linge soit neuf ou que vous veniez juste de
déménager, son bon fonctionnement dépend en grande partie
de son installation.

A

près avoir déballé l'appareil,
vérifiez s'il est en bon état. En cas de
doute, faites appel à un professionnel
du secteur. Pour permettre son

transport, l'in-térieur du lave­linge a été blo-qué à l'aide de
quatre vis et de caoutchoucs sur
le pan- neau arrière de la
machine.

Déblocage: enlever les
4 vis!

2

1

Avant de brancher votre lave-lin­ge, enlevez les vis, le caoutchouc
et la cale (conservez bien toutes
ces pièces) et bouchez les trous
à l'aide des cache-trous en plas­tique fournis avec l'appareil.
Attention: en cas de réutilisa­tion, les vis plus courtes doivent

être montées dessus.

Mise à niveau

Pour bien fonctionner, il est important
que votre lave-linge soit bien posé à
plat. Pour bien le niveler, il suffit
d'agir sur ses pieds; son angle
d'inclinaison , mesuré sur le plan de
travail, ne doit pas depasser 2°. Si
vous avez de la moquette,
attention à ce que la ventilation
ne soit pas bouchée au niveau de
la zone dappui.

Les pieds avant sont réglables

Conservez les vis de

blocage et les cales. En cas

de déménagement vous

pourrez vous en resservir

pour bloquer les pièces

internes du lave-linge et le

protéger ainsi contre les

chocs pendant son

transport.

Raccordement à la
prise d'eau

La pression de l'eau doit être
comprise entre les valeurs indiquées
sur la plaquette fixée à l'arrière de
l'appareil. Raccordez le tuyau
d'arrivée que vous trouvez, démonté,
à l'intérieur du tambour à une prise
d'eau froide à embout fileté 3/4 gaz.
Si les tuyauteries de l'eau sont neuves
ou inutilisées depuis longtemps,
faites couler l'eau jusqu'à ce qu'elle
soit limpide et sans impuretés avant
de raccorder. Raccordez le tuyau à
la machine, au niveau de la prise
d'eau prévue en haut, à droite.

Prise d'eau à monter en haut à
droite.

Raccordement du tuyau
de vidange

Un crochet situé à l'arrière de la
machine, en haut, vous permet
éventuellement de fixer le tuyau de
vidange. Introduisez l'autre extrémité
dans un conduit d'évacuation mura­le ou bien accrochez-le à l'évier ou à
la baignoire en évitant de l'écraser
ou de trop le plier. Il faut absolument
qu'il débouche entre 60 et 100 cm de
haut.
Si vous êtes obligé de fixer
l'extrémité à moins de 60 cm au­dessus du sol, il faut que vous fixiez
le tuyau au crochet susmentionné
prévu dans le panneau arrière de la
machine.

Le crochet à utiliser si le tuyau
débouche à moins de 60 cm de
haut.

Si le tuyau évacue dans la baignoire
ou dans le lavabo, appliquez le
support en plastique et attachez-le
au robinet.

Le guide pour le vindange en
baignoire ou lavabo.

Ne le laissez jamais
tremper dans l'eau.

L'utilisation de rallonges est
absolument déconseillée. Si vous ne
pouvez vraiment pas vous en passer,
il faut qu'elle ait le même diamètre
que le tuyau original et moins de
150 cm de long. En cas d'évacuation
murale, faites vérifier son efficacité
par un professionnel agréé. Si vous
habitez en étage dans un immeuble,
il peut y avoir des phénomènes de
siphonnement qui font que votre
lave-linge prend et évacue l'eau
continuellement.
Pour supprimer cet inconvé-nient ,
vous pouvez trouver dans le
commerce des valves spéciales anti­siphonnement.

M

Branchement
électrique

Avant de brancher la machine à la
prise de courant, contrôlez que:

1) la prise de courant est conforme
aux normes et que sa charge
électrique est bien apte à
supporter la puissance maximum
de la machine figurant sur la
plaquette des caractéri-stiques;

2) la tension d'alimentation est bien
comprise entre les valeurs
figurant sur la plaquette des
caractéri-stiques;

3) la prise est bien compati- ble avec
la fiche de la machine. En
cas d'incompatibilité, n'utilisez
pas d'adaptateurs mais remplacez
la prise ou la fiche;

4) votre installation électrique dispo­se bien d'une "mise à la terre".

5) une fois la machine branchée,
elle ne s'appuie pas sur le câble
d'alimentation.
