Installation

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

65 - 100 cm

Connecting the drain hose

- 2004/108/EC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)

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.

Technical data

! 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.

How to run a wash cycle or a drying cycle

WARNING: before you use the wasdher-dryer for the first

time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the 90° cottons cycle without pre-wash.

1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the button. All the indicator lights will illuminate for 1 second; the indicator light corresponding to the button will then remain lit in a fixed manner and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly.

2. LOAD THE LAUNDRY. Open the porthole door. Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum load value indicated in the table of wash cycles on the following page.

3. MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT. Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant compartments as described in “Description of

the machine”.

4. CLOSE THE PORTHOLE DOOR.

5. SELECT THE PROGRAMME. Turn the WASH CYCLE SELECTOR KNOB right or left, until you have selected the desired wash cycle. A temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle; these may be adjusted.

6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant buttons on the control panel:

Modify the temperature. The machine automatically displays the maximum

temperature values set for the selected cycle, or the most recently-used settings if they are compatible with the selected cycle. The temperature can be decreased by pressing the button, until the cold wash ( ) setting is reached. If this button is pressed again, the maximum values are restored.

! Exception: if the programme is selected, the

temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.

Setting the drying cycle.

The first time the button is pressed, the machine will automatically select the maximum drying cycle which is compatible with the selected wash cycle. Subsequent presses will decrease the drying level and then the drying time, until the cycle is excluded completely ( ). If this button is 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 “L1”: suitable for clothes which will need ironing

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

Hanger “L2”: ideal for clothes which do not need to be

dried fully.

Cupboard “L3”: suitable for laundry which can be put

back in a cupboard without being ironed.

Extra “L4”: 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

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 wasdher-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”.

Super Wash

This option offers a high-performance 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 , , , , , ,

, , , , .

Time Saver

If you select this option, the wash cycle duration will be reduced by up to 50%, depending on the selected cycle, thereby guaranteeing simultaneous water and energy saving. Use this cycle for lightly soiled garments. ! It cannot be used in conjunction with , , , , ,

, , , , , .

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

This means that all washable wool garments may be washed in the Washer-dryer, even those which state “hand wash only” on the label when washed in accordance with the instructions for the wool cycle. 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 ; 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. Anti Allergy: use programme to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.

Wash&Dry was designed to wash and dry lightly soiled

garments quickly. 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 pretreat 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.

Washing recommendations

Whites: use this cycle to wash white clothes. The

programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white clothes over time. 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. Wool: this is the only Washer-dryer brand to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark Apparel Care

- Platinum endorsement (M1135) by The Woolmark Company. The “Wool” wash cycle can be used to wash up to 2,5 kg of all washable wool garments in the Washer-dryer while guaranteeing optimum performance.

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 washer dryer (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.

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 wasdher-dryer 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 prechamber 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 wasdher-dryer 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 Washer-dryer does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

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

! 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.
