Installation

! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or moved, make sure the instruction manual accompanies the washing machine to inform the new owner as to its operation and features. ! Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding installation, operation and safety.

Unpacking

1. Unpack the machine.

2. Check whether the machine has been damaged during transportation. If this is the case, do not install it and contact your retailer.

Removing the transit fixings

IMPORTANT: Follow these instructions to remove the TWO transit fixings. Situated on either side of the rear panel, BOTH transit

bolts MUST be removed before use.

! Failure to do so may cause damage to your machine. It is important the transit bolt and

Levelling

Your machine will be noisy if the two front feet are not adjusted so that the machine stands firm and level. ! The machine should be levelled from side to side and from front to back.

1. Move your machine into its final location.

- Take care not to trap or kink the hoses.

2. Turn one or both front feet anticlockwise by hand until the feet cannot be turned any more. When adjusting the feet, use a spirit level to check the machine stands level, from side to side and from front to back.

- The spring on each foot will stop them coming loose.

! If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath the machine.

Water connection

Connecting the water inlet hose. Remember that this is a cold-fill machine.

! Check that seal is in place inside the hose end cap.

1. Unscrew the bolt using a 13mm spanner.

2. STOP when 3 threads can be seen.

3. Hold, slide sideways and pull to remove.

) over the hole.

Before making the water connections to gas ¾ thread, allow the water to run freely from the supply tap until it is perfectly clear.

Screw the inlet end with the blue cap onto the cold water supply tap.

Turn the tap on and check for leaks: tighten if necessary. ! Make sure that there are no kinks or bends in the hose. ! The water pressure at the tap must be within the values indicated in the Technical details table (next page). ! If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised serviceman.

! Always use new hoses. ! Check the water hose at least once a year, replace

any that are cracked as worn hoses could split under water pressure.

Drainage connections

The free end of the hose should not be under water.

A. Connect the drain hose, without kinking it, to a draining duct or a wall drain fixed at a height between 65 and 100cm from the floor. B. Alternatively, place it over the edge of a basin, sink or tub, fastening the hose supplied to the tap.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed and before you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle without detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme without a pre-wash cycle.

Woolmark Platinum Care

As gentle as washing by hand.

Ariston sets a new standard of superior performance that has been endorsed by The Woolmark Company with the prestigious

Woolmark Platinum Care brand. Look for the Woolmark Platinum Care logo on the washing machine to ensure you can safely and effectively wash wool garments labelled as “hand wash” (M.00221). Set programme 12 for all “Hand Wash” garments using the appropriate detergent. Wool: For best results, use a specific detergent, taking care not to exceed a load of 1 kg.

Adding fabric conditioner

Pour the recommended amount of fabric conditioner into the compartment. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Pre-wash ( When selecting programme 1 add detergent to both the pre-wash and the main wash compartment. ! Do not use in drum dosing devices with pre-wash programme 1.

Programme 1

)

Preparing your laundry

• Divide your laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.

- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.

• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.

• Do not exceed the weight limits stated below which refer to the weight when dry: Sturdy fabrics : max. 7 kg Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg Delicate fabrics : max. 2 kg Wool : max. 1 kg

! DO NOT overload the machine as this could result in reduced performance.

Precautions and advice

! The machine was designed and built in compliance with the applicable international safety regulations. The following information is provided for your safety and should consequently be read carefully.

General safety

• The washing machine should only be used by adults and in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.

• Never touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.

• Do not pull on the power cable to unplug the appliance from the electricity socket. Pull the plug out.

• Do not open the detergent dispenser while the appliance is in operation.

• Do not touch the drain water as it could reach very high temperatures.

• Never force the washing machine door: this could damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent any accidental opening.

• In the event of a malfunction, do not under any circumstances touch internal parts in order to attempt repairs.

• Always keep children well away from the appliance while in operation.

• The appliance door tends to get quite hot during the wash cycle.

• Should it have to be moved, proceed with the help 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 your laundry into the washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.

Saving energy and respecting the environment

Environmentally-friendly technology

If you only see a little water through your appliance door, this is because thanks to the latest Ariston technology, your washing machine only needs less than half the amount of water to get the best results: an objective reached to respect the environment.

Saving on detergent, water, energy and time

• To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine should always be used with a full load. A full load instead of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on energy.

• Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving them to soak before washing will cut down the need to wash them at high temperatures. A programme at 60°C instead of 90°C, or one at 40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on energy.

• Use the correct quantity of detergent, depending on the water hardness, how soiled the garments are and the amount of laundry you have, to avoid wastage and to protect the environment: despite being biodegradable, detergents do contain ingredients that alter the natural balance of the environment. In addition, avoid using fabric softener as much as possible.

• If you use your washing machine between late in the afternoon and in the early hours of the morning, you will help reduce the electricity board’s peak load.

• If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer, select a high spin speed. Having the least water possible in your laundry will save you time and energy in the drying process.

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging material: observe local legislations, so the packaging can be re-used.

• Disposing of an old machine: before scrapping your appliance, cut the power supply cable and remove the appliance door.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that 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 in must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information c

• The pre-wash stage is only necessary on extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save on detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% less energy.

Care and maintenance

Switching off the water or electricity supply

• Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will

limit the wear of the appliance’s water system and also prevent leaks.

• Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and during

all maintenance operations.

Cleaning your appliance

Cleaning the exterior

Use a damp cloth or silicon polish to clean the exterior surfaces of the appliance.

Cleaning the door bowl

Clean the internal surface of the door bowl regularly with a soft cloth. A build-up of soap powder and water hardness residue may result in water leaking from the door.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer and compartments

It is advisable to clean the dispenser drawer regularly. ! Do not try to clean any part of the dispenser drawer while the machine is running.

Caring for your appliance door and drum

• Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately. During the wash cycles, high water pressure could cause a cracked hose to split open.

! Never use hoses that have already been used.

1. Pull out the drawer until it reaches its stop.

2. Press the drawer release button to remove the dispenser drawer (see figure).

3. Clean and dry the dispenser drawer, syphons, grate and fabric conditioner exit channel (A). Also regularly clean the outlet pipe area (B).

4. Relocate the dispenser drawer and push it firmly back into place.

! Do not clean any part of the machine with abrasive cleaners, scouring agents, acids, any bleach or metal polish as they may cause damage.
