Installation

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe place for future reference. If the washing machine is sold, given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it. ! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital information relating to the safe installation and operation of the appliance. ! Inside the pack containing this manual, you will also find the guarantee and all the details necessary for installation.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Once you have removed all the packaging from the washing machine, make sure it has not been damaged during transportation. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.

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

! If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to cause vibrations and noise while it is operating, particularly during the spin cycle. ! 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 washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

! Before connecting the inlet hose to the water supply, run the water until it is perfectly clear.

1. Connect the inlet hose to the machine by screwing it onto the cold water inlet of the appliance, which is situated on the top righthand side of the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

2. Connect the inlet hose by screwing it to a cold water tap using a 3/4 gas threaded connection (see figure).

3. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs supplied in the pack.

4. Keep all the parts in a safe place; they will be needed again if the washing machine is moved to another location, to prevent the inside of the appliance being damaged. ! Packaging materials should not be used as toys for children.

Levelling

1. Place the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls or cabinets.

2. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the machine may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not exceed 2 degrees).

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

! The water pressure at the tap must fall within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see next page).

! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialised shop or an authorised technician.

! Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; use the products supplied with the machine.

Connecting the drain hose

65 - 100 cm

Connect the drain hose to drain duct piping or a wall drain located between 65 and 100 cm above the floor, making sure it is not bent at all.

Alternatively, rest the drain hose on the side of a washbasin or bathtub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). The free end of the hose should not be underwater.

! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! The cable should not be bent or compressed.

! The power supply cable and plug must only be replaced

by authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible in the event that these regulations are not respected.

! We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity socket, make sure that:

• the socket is earthed and complies with all applicable laws;

• the socket is able to withstand the maximum power load of the appliance as indicated in the Technical data table

(see opposite);

• the power supply voltage falls within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

• the socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, have the socket or the plug replaced.

! The machine must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain, storms and other weather conditions.

! The mains socket must remain within easy reach after the washing machine has been installed.

DIRECT INJECTION SYSTEM

The washing machine features the innovative “Direct Injection” technology that quickly solubilises the detergent and efficiently activates all the various components. The system guarantees the complete use and dissolution of the detergent, which is mixed with water before reaching the garments. This ensures better cleaning results already at low temperatures, providing significant energy savings while perfectly protecting colours and fibres. The “Direct Injection” technology is activated automatically in all the cycles.

Detergents and laundry

Detergent

The type and quantity of detergent required depend on the type of fabric you are washing (cotton, wool, silk, etc.), as well as its colour, the washing temperature, the level of soiling and the hardness of the water in the area. Measuring out the detergent carefully will avoid wastage and help to protect the environment: although they are biodegradable, detergents still contain ingredients which alter the balance of nature. We recommend the following:

• use powder detergents for white cotton garments and pre-washing.

• use liquid detergents for delicate cotton garments and for all low-temperature wash cycles.

• use gentle liquid detergents for wool and silk garments.

The detergent should be poured into the relevant compartment

- or the dispenser placed directly inside the drum - before the

wash cycle begins. In the latter case, it will not be possible to select the Cottons with pre-wash cycle. ! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C

! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging. ! Do not use hand washing detergents because these create

too much foam.

Preparing the laundry

• Shake out the garments before loading them into the machine.

• Divide the laundry according fabric type (symbol on the washing instruction label) and colour, making sure you separate the coloured garments from the white ones;

• Empty all pockets and check the buttons;

• Do not exceed the values listed in the “Table of wash cycles”, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g 1 pillowcase 150-200 g 1 tablecloth 400-500 g 1 bathrobe 900-1200 g 1 towel 150-250 g 1 pair of jeans 400-500 g 1 shirt 150-200 g

Washing recommendations

Coloureds Intensive: use the cycle on light coloured

garments to remove tough stains without damaging the integrity and brightness of the colours. The cycle is studied to guarantee a 60° performance at only 40°. We recommend the use of detergents suitable to wash coloured clothes. Multi Colour: use the cycle to wash medium-soiled multi-coloured garments or garments of different colours. Cycle designed to ensure colour care while achieving a 40° performance at just 20°. We recommend using detergents that are suitable for coloured washes and active already at low temperatures.

! We always recommend a separate wash for running

garments and the first time you wash a new coloured item. Darks: Use cycle to wash dark-coloured garments. This programme is designed to maintain dark colours over time. We recommend using a liquid detergent for the best results when washing dark-coloured garments. Steam Refresh: This programme refreshes garments by removing bad odours and relaxing the fibres (2 kg, roughly 3 items). Insert dry items only (that are not dirty) and select programme “ “. The garments will be damp once the cycle is completed, so we recommend hanging them to dry. The “

“ programme makes ironing easier. Moreover, with the “Steam Perfume” laundry balls, your favourite perfume can be added to your laundry. Place a

few drops of perfume on the sponge contained inside the laundry ball, close it and insert it into the drum together with the laundry. Then launch the specific programme “ “. At the end of the cycle, garments will be relaxed and fragrant.

! The indicator light for the “ ” option will switch on when this cycle is selected.

! Not recommended for wool or silk garments. ! Do not add too much perfume to the sponge in order to

avoid it dripping. ! Do not add softeners or detergents. Duvets: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of which should not exceed 3,5 kg), cushions or clothes padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use the special wash cycle. We recommend that duvets are placed in the drum with their edges folded inwards (see figure) and that no more than ¾ of the total volume of the drum is used. To achieve the best results, we recommend that a liquid detergent is used and placed inside the detergent dispenser drawer.

Quilts: to wash quilts with a synthetic outer layer, use the bag provided and set the wash cycle to . Bedlinen and towels: Use programme to wash bed linen and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener performance and helps you save time and energy. We recommend the use of powder detergent Anti Allergy Plus : cycle studied for cotton laundry and other resistant fabrics to guarantee the removal of the main allergens such as pollen, mites, cat and dog hair. Anti Allergy Delicate : cycle studied for cotton laundry and other resistant fabrics to guarantee the removal of pollen and cat and dog hair already at 40°. Ultradelicates: use programme to wash very delicate garments having strasses or sequins. We recommend turning the garments inside out before washing and placing small items into the special bag for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate garments for best results. To wash Silk garments and Curtains (these should be folded and placed inside the bag provided), select cycle and then

option (in this case it will also be possible to enable the “Extra Rinse” option); the machine will end the cycle while

the laundry is soaking and the indicator light will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the button. Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint-Ariston machine has been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company for washing wool garments labelled as hand washable provided that the garments are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine. Hotpoint-Ariston is the first washing machine brand to be approved by The Woolmark Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its washing performance and consumption of energy and water.

Precautions and tips

! The 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.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• 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 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.

• If it must 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 laundry into the washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.

The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products

to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection.

For more information relating to the correct disposal of

household appliances, owners should contact their local authorities or appliance dealer.

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. remove the cover panel on the lower front part of the washing machine (see overleaf).

4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull downwards until you hear a “click”, which indicates that the door is now unlocked.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin 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.

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.

• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health.

5. open the door; if this is still not possible repeat the procedure.

6. 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 in the machine and help to prevent leaks.

• Unplug the appliance when cleaning it and during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the 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

To remove the drawer, press lever (1) and pull the drawer outwards (2) (see figure). Wash it under running water; this procedure should be repeated frequently.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. take off the cover panel on the front of the machine by first pressing it in the centre and then pushing downwards on both sides until you can remove it (see figures);

2. position a container so that it will collect the water which flows out (approximately 1.5 l) (see figure);

3. unscrew the lid by rotating it in an anti-clockwise direction (see figure);

4. clean the inside thoroughly;

5. screw the lid back on;

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

Caring for your appliance drum

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

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 protective pre-chamber at the base of the pump.

! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug 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.

Trouble shooting

Your washing machine could occasionally fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see “Assistance”), make sure that the problem cannot be not solved easily using the following list.

Problem:

The washing machine does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The washing machine does not fill with water.

The washing machine door remains locked.

The machine continuously fills with water and drains.

The washing machine does not drain or spin.

Instalacja

! Należy zachować niniejszą książeczkę, aby móc z niej skorzystać w każdej chwili. W przypadku sprzedaży, odstąpienia lub przeprowadzki należy upewnić się, że pozostanie razem z pralką. ! Należy uważnie przeczytać instrukcję obsługi: zawiera ona ważne informacje dotyczące instalacji oraz właściwego i bezpiecznego użytkowania pralki. !W kopercie zawierającej niniejszą instrukcję, oprócz gwarancji, znajdują się detale pomagające przy instalacji.

Rozpakowanie i wypoziomowanie

Rozpakowanie

1. Po wypakowaniu pralki upewnić się, że nie doznała uszkodzeń podczas transportu. W przypadku stwierdzenia uszkodzeń nie podłączać jej i skontaktować się ze sprzedawcą.

2. Odkręcić 4 śruby ochronne umocowane na czas transportu oraz odpowiednią rozpórkę, znajdujące się w części tylnej (patrz rysunek).

3. Zatkać otwory przy pomocy plastikowych korków znajdujących się w kopercie.

4. Przechowywać wszystkie części; jeśli pralka będzie przenoszona, powinny zostać ponownie zamontowane uszkodzeń celu uniknięcia uszkodzeń wewnętrznych. ! Części opakowania nie są zabawkami dla dzieci.

Poziomowanie

! W razie ustawienia na dywanie lub wykładzinie dywanowej należy tak wyregulować nóżki, aby pod pralką pozostawała wolna przestrzeń niezbędna dla wentylacji.

Podłączenia hydrauliczne i elektryczne

Podłączenie rury pobierania wody

! Przed podłączeniem przewodu zasilającego do sieci wodociągowej spuścić wodę aż do pojawienia się przejrzystej wody.

1. Podłączyć do urządzenia przewód doprowadzający wodę, przykręcając go do odpowiedniego otworu dopływowego, znajdującego się w tylnej części pralki, z prawej strony u góry (patrz rysunek)..

2. Podłączyć przewód zasilający poprzez przykręcenie go do zaworu wody zimnej z otworem z gwintem rurowym drobnozwojowym ¾ (patrz rysunek).

3. Zwrócić uwagę, aby na przewodzie nie było zagięć ani zwężeń.

1. Ustawić pralkę na płaskiej i twardej podłodze; nie opierać jej o ściany lub meble.

2. Skompensować nierówności odkręcając lub przykręcając nóżki aż urządzenie znajdzie się w położeniu poziomym (jego nachylenie nie powinno przekraczać 2 stopnii).

! Dokładne wypoziomowanie powoduje, że urządzenie jest stabilne i umożliwia wyeliminowanie drgań i hałasów, zwłaszcza podczas fazy wirowania.

! Ciśnienie wody w kurku powinno mieścić się w przedziale podanym w tabeli Danych technicznych (patrz

strona obok).

! Jeśli długość przewodu doprowadzającego wodę jest niewystarczająca, należy zwrócić się do specjalistycznego sklepu lub do autoryzowanego technika.

! Nigdy nie należy stosować używanych lub starych przewodów zasilających, lecz tych, które znajdują się na wyposażeniu urządzenia.

Podłączenie przewodu odpływowego

65 - 100 cm

Podłączyć rurę odpływową wody do kanalizacji lub otworu spustowego w ścianie umieszczonego na wysokości od 65 cm do 1 m od ziemi, unikając zginania jej.

Alternatywnie można oprzeć ją na brzegu zlewu lub wanny, przymocowując do kranu załączony do pralki prowadnik (zobacz

rysunek).

Wolny koniec rury odpływowej nie powinien pozostawać zanurzony w wodzie.

! Odradza się używanie rur-przedłużaczy; jeśli przedłużacz jest jednak konieczny, powinien mieć on ten sam przekrój, co rura oryginalna, i nie powinien przekraczać 150 cm długości.

Podłączenie elektryczne

Przed włożeniem wtyczki do gniazdka elektrycznego należy się upewnić, czy:

! Nie używać przedłużaczy ani wtyczek wielokrotnych.

! Kabel nie powinien być zgięty ani zgnieciony.

! Kabel zasilania elektrycznego oraz wtyczka mogą być

wymieniane wyłącznie przez upoważnionych techników.

Uwaga! Producent nie ponosi żadnej odpowiedzialności, jeśli powyższe normy nie będą przestrzegane.
