Instructions for installation
and use

AB 1030 C

Thank you for choosing an Ariston product. This
washer-dryer is reliable and easy to use. We suggest
you read your owner's manual carefully . This will help
you become familiar with your washer-dryer and its
functions in order to obtain years of trouble free per­formance.

Saves while it washes

The double action wash penetrates so deeply that at just
60°C you obtain the same results you would normally obtain
at 90°C with a traditional washer.

Controlled consumption

The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water used
in the wash to the size of the load, giving optimum use of
water, energy and detergent.

Double-action wash

Clothes are soaked in water and detergent, water then
“rains” steadily through the clothes.

D. Rinse Hold button

This function interrupts the cycle so that the laundry is left
soaking in water before the spin cycle.
This function is extremely useful because it stops delicate or
synthetic fabrics from creasing (for example when one has
to wait several hours before removing the laundry load).
It should be used only with the programmes for synthetic
fabrics and woollens.
IMPORT ANT: Before opening the door , drain away the water
by setting knob A on "drain". To carry out the spin cycle,
simply press D.

Using your washer

Preparing your laundry....

Divide your laundry by fabric and colour fastness. Wash white
and coloured items separately.
Remember to empty pockets, removing especially those small
items like coins, paper , pins and badges that might jam the
pump. Fasten or remove loose buttons and fasten zippers.
Turn shirts inside out for better results.

Check wash labels

Garments and laundry generally have wash instruction labels
(which tell you if they shloud be dry-cleaned, hand washed
or machine washed) showing the wash temperature, how
to iron etc.
Important: fabrics should only be machine washed if their
labels show the appropriate symbol (see table 1 page 4).

Alternate small and large items when
loading your washer-dryer

This washer-dryer has an electronic load balancing control:
before carrying out the spin cycle, this device ensures that
the laundry is arranged as evenly as possible in the drum,
according to the type of fabric and the way it was initially
loaded. This will minimize vibration and noise even during
the fastest spin cycle. For best results however, we
recommend you alternate small and large items when you
load your washer-dryer r emember to spread them out; never
wash large loads of terry cloth items.

Never fill compartment 3 above the grid.

Use compartment 2 for liquid detergent, filling the
compartment just before you start the washer. Remember
that liquid detergent is ideal for wash cycles with
temperatures up to 60°C and for the programmes with no
prewash cycle. Dispensers for liquid and powder detergents
which are placed inside the drum of the washer , ar e sold on
the market.
To improve the effectiveness of the washing cycle, we
recommend that you insert a detergent dispenser in the drum
before loading the laundry.

Do not use hand washing detergents since these produce
very heavy suds.
When using cold wash cycles, remember to reduce the
detergent dosage.

Detergents and fabric softener

Open detergent dispenser C by pulling it outwards. Fill with
detergent and conditioner using the quantities indicated by
the manufacturer on the packet according to the load you
are washing, the water hardness and how soiled your laundry
is. As you become more familiar with your washer, you will
regulate the quantities according to your own personal
experience.

At the end of the drying cycle...

Turn off the tumble dryer by pressing on/off button F and
wait at least 3 minutes before opening the door. Remove
the laundry and leave the door ajar to prevent the formation
of bad odour; remember to turn off the water tap.
This appliance has two drying programmes to ensure best
drying results and to prevent damage to your laundry: the
first is for heavy fabrics (left hand section) from 0 to 120
min. and the second is for synthetic fabrics (right hand
section) from 0 to 80 min. Forsmaller loads than those shown
in the table, remember to reduce the drying time
proportionally . Until you become familir with your appliance,
we suggest you programme shorter drying times than those
indicated and to check that your laundry is quite dry at the
end of the cycle. If not, simply shut the door and set extra
drying time. This will allow you to acquire your own perso­nal experience on drying times and will avoid over-dry laundry
which is difficult to iron.

2.

If the laundry load you want to wash and dry is above the
maximum (table 2 on pag. 5), follow the steps described in
the paragraph washing only.
At the end of the wash cycle, remove the laundry , divide the
laundry and return a part of the load in the appliance.
Now follow the steps described in the paragraph drying
only.
Repeat the same steps for the remaining part of the laundry
load.
Important: woollens may not be machine dried since the
drying temperature would damage them.
Never dry items that have been laundered with inflammable
solvents (es. trichloroethylene).
Do not dry items containing foam rubber or similar
elastomers.
Check that the water tap to which the supply pipe of the
appliance is connected, is open during the drying cycle.

Washing tips

Stain removal

The most common stains will disappear during the wash. If
they are particularly stubborn, soak the garment in water
and rub a little detergent onto the stain before putting it in
the washer-dryer.
Greasy marks (especially old ones) need treating with a stain­remover. Be careful not to mark the fabric with remover.

Pre-treatment for awkward stains

- Ink: ball point/felt tip; Put a few drops of nail varnish remover
or surgical spirit onto a piece of cotton wool and dab the
stain. Wash at 90°C (NB. This is only suitable for colourfast
cottons)

- Tar and oil; Scrape off any thick tar or oil on the surface.
Soften the remainder with margarine or butter and wipe
away with a clean cloth. Treat any residual stain with
turpentine, then wash according to the fabric

- Wax; Scrape off, then put the stained garment between
two pieces of blotting paper and press with a hot iron. Dab
the stain immediately with cotton wool dipped in turpentine

- Chewing gum; Apply nail varnish remover to the gum,
then remove it carefully

- Lipstick; Pretreat with a liquid detergent using the dosing
ball, rub vigorously and rinse before washing

- Grass; Soak in a warm washing solution using a biological
washing product, then wash according to the fabric.
Alternatively, saturate the stain with white methylated spirit.
Rinse and wash normally

- Paint: Water based latex, acrylic and school paints, emulsion
paints; Treat stains while still wet. Rinse thoroughly under
running water to flush out the paint, then wash according
to the fabric.
Oil based paint/varnish; Sponge with white spirit or paint
brush cleaner before washing in the normal way.

What not to wash in your appliance?

- Torn, frayed or unhemmed items; in order to wash items
of this kind, wrap them in a linen bag to prevent them from
tearing during the wash.

- Dark coloured items with white items. Dark items should
be washed separately.

Curtains

Curtains tend to crease badly . T ry this washing hint to prevent
creases: fold the curtains carefully and place in a pillow case
or loose mesh bag; wash separately ensuring that the weight
is no more than a half wash load.

Quilts, tennis shoes and wind-cheaters

Contrary to common belief, goose or duck down quilts and
wind-cheaters, can in fact be machine washed, provided
the instructions shown on the label are followed carefully.
Remember however to load no more than 2-3 kg of laundry
and to repeat the rinse cycle once or twice following with a
gentle spin. In the case of tennis shoes, wipe off mud and
then machine wash with denims or heavy fabrics (but not
white fabrics).

Do not exceed the recommended weights
shown in the table

For best washing results, do not exceed the recommended
weights shown in the table; the weights shown refer to dry
laundry .

Energy saving hints

- T ry to wash complete laundry loads: this saves unnecessary
consumption of water and energy .

- Select the right programme for your laundry: this will
obviously depend on the type of fabric and how soiled your
laundry is; we recommend the use of programmes without
prewash which will save you time, water and energy. The
prewash cycle should in fact be used only for heavily soiled,
cotton fabrics.

- Set the right temperature: use temperatures above 60°C
only for very stubborn dirt but remember that modern
detergents are very efficient even at low temperatures.

- Use the correct quantities of detergent: do not use too
much detergent; remember that not only will this make
rinsing more difficult but also pollutes the enviroment.

- Use the economy buttons: when washing small laundry
loads use the Economy button if available on your washer­dryer and reduce the detergent quantity.

General maintenance

After every wash

Leave the door open and wipe the door gasket dry after
each wash so that damp or odours do not form.

Remove the plug

Before cleaning or servicing always remove the plug from
the socket. This is for safety reasons.

No solvents or abrasive substance

You do not need solvents or abrasive substances to clean
the outside of the washer-dryer and the rubber parts. Just
use a cloth, warm water and soap.

- Y our washer -dryer features automatic consumption control,
this means that you can wash laundry loads from 1 - 5 kg
with considerable savings. Your washer-dryer will use just
the right amount of water and electricity . All you need to do
is dose the detergent.

- Fabric softeners: always use a softener; not only do these
perfume and soften your laundry, they also make it easy to
iron, saving you time.

When moving house

When you move, all you need to do is secure the inside of
the machine with the transit screws (supplied with the
packaging of the machine) so that it will not be damaged.

Cleaning and special servicing

Hose

Check the hose once a year. It should be replaced if any
signs of splitting or damage can be seen. The machine is
under a lot of strain while operating and this may cause a
cracked hose to split open suddenly .

Detergent dispenser

1

drawer

This can be removed and
cleaned. Just pull it towards
you, as shown in the diagram,
and leave it under running
water for a few minutes.

Unplug the machine when you go away

It’s best to unplug the machine when you go away, turn off
the water supply and leave the machine door open or ajar.
The drum and rubber door lining will dry and no unpleasant
odours will form inside.

GB

Inspecting the drain pump

Your washer-dryer has a self-cleaning pump and therefore
requires no cleaning or mainteannce. Remember however
that small items such as buttons or coins may accidentally
fall into the pump. T o r emove these items, the pump comes
equipped with an "prechamber" which is accessible from
the front of the pump. To gain access to this prechamber
simply remove the panel located on the bottom part of the
washer-dryer (figure 1), place it on the ground near the
machine (figure 2), and remove the lid by tur ning it in the
counter clockwise direction. Carefully inspect the inside of
the pump.
Important: before removing the lid check that the wash
cycle has ended and unplug the washer-dr yer from the mains.
It is normal for a small quantity of water to spill out once the
lid is removed. The panel positioned at the base of the
machine will catch the water that spills out. Remember to
shut the lid firmly when you replace it.

Trouble shooting

If the machine does not seem to be working properly before
calling the service engineer there are a number of things
you can check. Perhaps you have forgotten to push in a
button or you are not using the machine properly.

Machine won't start

Make sure:

the appliance is plugged to the mains socket; you have
electricity in your home, the door is firmly shut, the ON/OFF
button F is on I, the programming cycle knob, in washer­dryers which have one, is on O, the programme is properly
set and the mains water tap is open.

Machine won't fill

Make sure:

the water tap is open and connected correctly to the hose;
the water mains has not been cut off and that water pressur e
is sufficient; also check the hose for kinks.

Water is pumping in and out all the time

Make sure:

there are no kinks in the drain pipe and that it is at least at a
height of 60-100 cm; the pipe mouth is not below water
level and that the wall drain has no air outlet. If the problems
continue even after you have checked these points, shut
the water tap and turn off your washer-dryer.

Problems with pumping out water or
spinning

Make sure:

the programme selected has a draining cycle; the non
creasing "hydropstop" button, on washer -dryers which have
one, has not been pressed accidentally; the drainage pump
is not jammed; the drain pipe is bent; the drainage piping is
plugged; any drainage pipe extensions are properly
connected and do not prevent water flow .

Water contains increasing amounts of limescale because of
pollution. If you live in a hard water area in addition to
using water-softener in each wash, it is a good idea to put
the machine through a cycle without laundry or detergent,
just using limescale remover.

The washer-dryer is not drying

Make sure:

the plug is inserted properly into the socket; there is electricity
in the house; the washer-dryer door is closed; the ON-OFF
button F is on the I setting; the programming cycle knob, in
washer-dryers which have one, is on the O setting; the
program knob A is on the setting; the dryer knob B is on
the O setting.

Lots of vibration during the spin

Make sure:

the internal oscillating unit was released correctly at the time
of installation (see installation instructions); the washer is
levelled correctly or too tightly fitted between furniture units
and the wall.

Your washer is leaking.

Make sure:

the ring nut of the supply pipe is firmly tightened; the
detergent dispenser is not plugged and the drainage pipe is
firmly fixed.

Excessive formation of suds.

Make sure:

the type of detergent you have used - is it suitable for an
automati washer - have you used too much detergent?

The washer-dryer is not drying efficiently.

Make sure:

the end of the drain hose is not immersed in water; the
drain pump is not blocked (see "General maintenance");
the advice on maximum loads and drying times have been
followed; the drying time selected is at least 20 minutes; the
water tap is turned on.

GB

If despite all this your washer-dr yer is still not running properly ,
call your local Authorized Service Centre providing the
following information:

- fault

- model code (Mod. ....)

and serial number (S/N ....)

shown on the data plate at the back of your washer .

Never use the services of an unauthorised servicing technician
and insist on the use of original spare parts.

Installation

Transit packing

After removing the packing, check the appliance for damage.
If you have any doubts do not use the washer and call a qualified
technician. Keep the packaging components (plastic bags,
polyester foam, nails etc.) out of the reach of children since
they could be dangerous. The interior of the washer -dryer , has
an oscillating unit which is fixed on the back by 3 screws
during transport (figure 3). Before starting up the washer -dryer ,
release the unit, by unscrewing the 3 screws. Seal the screw
holes with the plastic plugs supplied with the appliance.

Fig. 3

Fig. 4

Levelling

The washer-dryer must be perfectly levelled. To level the
appliance, only the front feet need to be adjusted
(see fig. 4); remember that the inclination of the working
surface must not be more than 2 degrees. If the washer -dryer
is installed on a carpeted floor, check that there is sufficient
ventilation space between the floor and the bottom of the
washer-dryer.

Water supply

Both hot and cold water supplies are preferable and they should
be between 34.5kN/m²(5lb/in²) and 1034.2kN/m² (150lb/in²)
pressure. The hose having the red end fitting should be en­countered between the hot supply and the threaded connec­tion adjacent to the letter H on the rear of the machine. The

hose having the white end fittings should be connected be­tween the cold supply and the threaded connection adjacent
to the letter C on the rear of the machine (see fig. 5). Remem­ber to insert a sealing washer at each connection to ensure
watertight joints. Do not overtighten the connections by
using tools -hand tight is sufficient to prevent leaks. It is gener ­ally more convenient to have these supplies away from the
sink taps. Where no suitable hot water supply is available or it
does not meet these requirements, both inlet hoses may be
connected to a cold supply by using two taps etc., or a «T»
junction on the plumbing (see fig. 6) however, use of cold
water only will increase programme times.
Note: the maximum temperature should not exceed 70°C
(158°F).

Fig. 5

Fig. 6

Drain hose

The drain hose (hooked pipe) is secured to the rear of the
machine by support clips and may be routed to right or left as
required (see fig. 7) . The drain hose should be placed in a
stand pipe with a minimum internal diameter of 38 mm (1½
inches) or it can be positioned over a sink (see fig. 8) or it can
be connected as shown in fig. 9. The height of stand pipe or
sink should be between 60 and 100 cm (24 and 40 inches).
Care must be taken that the hose is not obstructed, twisted,
submerged or kinked. If the hose is connected with an airtight
joining, provision should be made to prevent syphoning.
