Installation

! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe place for future reference. If the Washerdryer 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 Washer-dryer, 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 Washer-dryer.

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 right-hand 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 Washer-dryer 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 Washerdryer 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

! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

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.

! 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.

! 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.

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.

Caring for your appliance drum

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 anticlockwise 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.

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

Cleaning the pump

The Washer-dryer is fitted with a selfcleaning 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.

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 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 dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

– Items that have been soiled with substances such

as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

– Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,

waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.

– Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used

as specified by the fabric softener instructions.

– The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without

heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of

the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.

• 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 washer dryer, make sure the drum is empty.

• During the drying phase, the door tends to get

quite hot.

• Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have

been washed with flammable solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene).

• Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or

similar elastomers.

• Make sure that the water tap is turned on during the drying cycles.

Disposal

Subsequent presses will decrease the drying level and then the drying time, until the cycle is excluded completely (“OFF”). If these buttons are pressed again, the maximum values are restored.

Drying may be set as follows:

A - Based on a set time period: between 20 and 180 minutes.

B- Based on the desired laundry dryness level: Iron: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards.

the remaining dampness softens creases, making them easier to remove.

Hanger: ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully. Cupboard: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a

cupboard without being ironed.

Extra: suitable for garments which need to be dried

completely, such as sponges and bathrobes. If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater

than the maximum stated load, perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this point, follow the instructions provided for a “Drying only” cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load. A cooling-down period is always added to the end of each drying cycle.

Wash options

Super Wash

This option offers a highperformance wash due to the greater quantity of water

used in the initial phase of the cycle, and due to the increased wash cycle duration, is particularly useful for the removal of stubborn

stains. It can be used with or without bleach. If you desire bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (3) into

compartment 1. When pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the “max” level marked on the central pivot

(see figure). To bleach laundry without carrying out a full wash cycle, pour the bleach into the extra compartment 3,

select the “Rinse” cycle and activate the “Super Wash” option . ! It cannot be used in conjunction with , , , , , ,

, , , , .

Extra rinse

By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal residual detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for skin which is

sensitive to detergents. We recommend this option is used with a full load of washing, or when a large amount of detergent is required. ! It cannot be used in conjunction with , , , , ,

, , .

Easy Iron

By selecting this option, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.

At the end of the cycle the Washer-dryer drum will rotate slowly; the “Easy Iron” and START/PAUSE indicator

lights will flash. To end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button.

! It cannot be used in conjunction with , , , , , ,

, , .

Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is enabled only if combined with level “Iron”.

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. ! 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

Whites: use this cycle to wash white clothes. The

programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white clothes over time. If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automatically activates at the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-air drying, with the added advantages of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the possible presence of dust in the air. Drying cycles can only be selected on a level basis. Coloureds: use this cycle to wash bright coloured clothes. The programme is designed to maintain bright colours over time. 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. When you select the drying function, at the end of the washing cycle the machine will automatically perform a delicate drying cycle that preserves the colours of the

garments. The display will show the level “Hanger”. Max. load: 3 kg. 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 Washer-dryer. Hotpoint-Ariston is the first Washer-dryer brand to be approved by The Woolmark Company for Apparel CarePlatinum for its washing performance and consumption of energy and water. (M1135)

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark is a Certification trade mark.

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 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. When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control of the water jet. The recommended durations are: 1 kg of synthetic garments --> 160 min 1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min 1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric composition. Anti Allergy: use programme to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair. Wash&Dry: select programme for washing and drying lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a short time. This cycle may be used to wash and dry a laundry load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes. To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-treat cuffs, collars and stains. Stubborn stains: it is wise to treat stubborn stains with solid soap before washing, and to use the Cottons with pre-wash cycle.

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 Washer-dryer 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.

Trouble shooting

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

Problem:

The Washer-dryer does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The Washer-dryer does not fill with water.

Installazione

! E’ importante conservare questo libretto per

poterlo consultare in ogni momento. In caso di vendita, di cessione o di trasloco, assicurarsi che resti insieme alla lavasciuga.

! Leggere attentamente le istruzioni: ci sono importanti informazioni sull’installazione, sull’uso e sulla sicurezza.

! Nella busta contenente questo libretto troverete, oltre alla garanzia, dei particolari che serviranno per l’installazione.

Disimballo e livellamento

Disimballo

1. Una volta disimballata la lavasciuga, controllare che non abbia subito danni durante il trasporto. Se fosse danneggiata non collegarla e contattare il rivenditore.

2. Rimuovere le 4 viti di protezione per il trasporto ed il relativo distanziale posti nella parte posteriore (vedi figura).

! Un accurato livellamento dà stabilità ed evita vibrazioni e rumorosità soprattutto nella fase di centrifuga.

! In caso sia posizionata su moquette o tappeti, regolare i piedini in modo da conservare sotto la lavasciuga lo spazio necessario per la ventilazione.

Collegamenti idraulici ed elettrici

Collegamento del tubo di alimentazione dell’acqua

! Prima di collegare il tubo di alimentazione alla rete idrica, far scorrere l’acqua finché non sia limpida.

1. Collegare il tubo di alimentazione alla macchina avvitandolo all’apposita presa d’acqua, nella parte posteriore in alto a destra (vedi figura).

3. Chiudere i fori con i tappi di plastica contenuti nella busta.

4. Conservare tutti i pezzi; qualora la lavasciuga dovesse essere trasportata, dovranno essere rimontati per evitare danneggiamenti interni.

! Gli imballaggi non sono giocattoli per bambini.

Livellamento

1. Posizionare la lavasciuga su un pavimento piano e rigido, senza appoggiarla a muri o mobili.

2. Compensare le irregolarità svitando o avvitando i piedini finchè la macchina non sia orizzontale (non deve essere inclinata più di 2 gradi).

2. Collegare il tubo di alimentazione avvitandolo a un rubinetto d’acqua fredda con bocca filettata da 3/4 gas (vedi figura).

3. Fare attenzione che nel tubo non ci siano né pieghe né strozzature.

! La pressione idrica del rubinetto deve essere compresa nei valori della tabella Dati tecnici (vedi pagina a fianco).

! Se la lunghezza del tubo di alimentazione non fosse sufficiente, rivolgersi a un negozio specializzato o a un tecnico autorizzato.

! Non utilizzare mai tubi di carico usati o vecchi, ma quelli in dotazione alla macchina.

Collegamento del tubo di scarico

65 - 100 cm

- 2006/95/CE (Bassa Tensione)

Collegare il tubo di scarico a una conduttura di scarico o a uno scarico a muro posti tra 65 e 100 cm da terra evitando assolutamente di piegarlo.

In alternativa, appoggiare il tubo di scarico al bordo di un lavandino o di una vasca, legando la guida in dotazione al rubinetto (vedi

figura).

L’estremità libera del tubo di scarico non deve rimanere

immersa nell’acqua.

! È sconsigliato usare tubi di prolunga; se indispensabile, la prolunga deve avere lo stesso diametro del tubo originale e non superare i 150 cm.

! Non usare prolunghe e multiple.

! Il cavo non deve subire piegature o

compressioni.

! Il cavo di alimentazione e la spina devono essere sostituiti solo da tecnici autorizzati.

Attenzione! L’azienda declina ogni responsabilità qualora queste norme non vengano rispettate.

Manutenzione e cura

Escludere acqua e corrente

elettrica

• Chiudere il rubinetto dell’acqua dopo ogni lavaggio. Si limita così l’usura dell’impianto idraulico della macchina e si elimina il pericolo

di perdite.

• Staccare la spina della corrente quando si pulisce la macchina e durante i lavori di manutenzione.

Pulire la macchina

La parte esterna e le parti in gomma possono essere puliti con un panno imbevuto di acqua tiepida e sapone. Non usare solventi o abrasivi.

Pulire il cassetto dei detersivi

Per estrarre il cassetto premere la leva (1) e tirarlo verso l’esterno (2)

(vedi figura).

Lavarlo sotto l’acqua corrente; questa pulizia va effettuata frequentemente.

Curare il cestello

• Lasciare sempre socchiusa la porta oblò per evitare che si formino cattivi odori.

Pulire la pompa

La macchina è dotata di una pompa autopulente che non ha bisogno di manutenzione. Può però succedere che piccoli oggetti (monete, bottoni) cadano nella precamera che protegge la pompa, situata nella parte inferiore di essa.

! Assicurarsi che il ciclo di lavaggio sia terminato e staccare la spina.

Per accedere alla precamera:

1. rimuovere il pannello di copertura sul lato anteriore della macchina premendo verso il centro, quindi spingere verso il basso da entrambe i lati ed estrarlo (vedi figure);

2. posizionare un contenitore per raccogliere l’acqua che uscirà (circa 1,5 lt) (vedi figura);

3. svitare il coperchio ruotandolo in senso antiorario (vedi figura);

4. pulire accuratamente l’interno;

5. riavvitare il coperchio;

6. rimontare il pannello assicurandosi, prima di spingerlo verso la macchina, di aver inserito i ganci nelle apposite asole.

Controllare il tubo di alimentazione dell’acqua

Controllare il tubo di alimentazione almeno una volta all’anno. Se presenta screpolature e fessure va sostituito: durante i lavaggi le forti pressioni potrebbero provocare improvvise spaccature.

Precauzioni e consigli

! La macchina è stata progettata e costruita in conformità

alle norme internazionali di sicurezza. Queste avvertenze sono fornite per ragioni di sicurezza e devono essere lette attentamente.

Sicurezza generale

• Questo apparecchio è stato concepito esclusivamente per un uso di tipo domestico.

• L’apparecchio non deve essere utilizzato da persone (bambini compresi) con capacità fisiche, sensoriali o mentali ridotte e con esperienze e conoscenze insufficienti, a meno che tale utilizzo non avvenga sotto la supervisione o le istruzioni di una persona responsabile della loro sicurezza.

I bambini devono essere sorvegliati per garantire che non

giochino con l’apparecchio.

- Non asciugare capi non lavati.

- I capi sporchi di sostanze quali l’olio di cottura, l’acetone, l’alcol, la benzina, il cherosene, gli smacchiatori, la trementina, la cera e le sostanze per rimuoverla devono essere lavati in acqua calda con una quantità maggiore di detergente prima di asciugarli nell’asciugabiancheria.

- Oggetti come la gomma espansa (schiuma di lattice), le cuffie per la doccia, i materiali tessili impermeabili, gli articoli con un lato di gomma e i vestiti o i cuscini che hanno delle parti in schiuma di lattice non devono essere asciugati nell’asciugabiancheria.

- Ammorbidenti o prodotti simili devono essere usati conformemente alle istruzioni del produttore.

- La parte finale di un ciclo dell’asciugabiancheria avviene senza calore (ciclo di raffreddamento) per garantire che gli articoli non vengano danneggiati.

ATTENZIONE: Non arrestare mai un’asciugabiancheria

prima del termine del programma di asciugatura. In questo caso prelevare rapidamente tutti i capi di biancheria e stenderli per farli raffreddare rapidamente.

• Non toccare la macchina a piedi nudi o con le mani o i piedi bagnati o umidi.

• Non staccare la spina dalla presa della corrente tirando il cavo, bensì afferrando la spina.

• Non toccare l’acqua di scarico, che può raggiungere temperature elevate.

• Non forzare in nessun caso la porta l’oblò: potrebbe danneggiarsi il meccanismo di sicurezza che protegge da aperture accidentali.

• In caso di guasto, in nessun caso accedere ai meccanismi interni per tentare una riparazione.

• Controllare sempre che i bambini non si avvicinino alla macchina in funzione.

• Se deve essere spostata, lavorare in due o tre persone con la massima attenzione. Mai da soli perché la macchina è molto pesante.

• Prima di introdurre la biancheria controllare che il cestello sia vuoto.

• Durante l’asciugatura l’oblò tende a scaldarsi.

• Non asciugare biancheria lavata con solventi

infiammabili (es. trielina).

• Non asciugare gommapiuma o elastomeri analoghi.

• Assicurati che durante le fasi di asciugatura il

rubinetto dell’acqua sia aperto.

Smaltimento

• Smaltimento del materiale di imballaggio: attenersi alle norme locali, così gli imballaggi potranno essere riutilizzati.

• La direttiva Europea 2002/96/CE sui rifiuti di apparecchiature elettriche ed elettroniche, prevede che gli elettrodomestici non debbano essere smaltiti nel normale flusso dei rifiuti solidi urbani. Gli apparecchi dismessi devono essere raccolti separatamente per ottimizzare il tasso di recupero e riciclaggio dei materiali che li compongono ed impedire potenziali danni per la salute e l’ambiente. Il simbolo del cestino barrato è riportato su tutti i prodotti per ricordare gli obblighi di raccolta separata.

Per ulteriori informazioni, sulla corretta dismissione

degli elettrodomestici, i detentori potranno rivolgersi al servizio pubblico preposto o ai rivenditori.
