Installation
EN
! 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).
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.
! 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 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. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.
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).
22
! 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.
! 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.
! 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.

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
• Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine 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.
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.
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.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the appliance.

Detergents and laundry
EN
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
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. Shirts: use the special wash cycle to wash shirts in different fabrics and colours to guarantee they receive the best possible care.
Quilted Jacket: to wash quilted jacket, cushions or clothes padded with goose down (the weight of which should not exceed 1,5 kg), use the special wash cycle. 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: use programme to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair. 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. 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.
In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark is a Certification trade mark.
Cotton Standard 20°C: ideal for lightly soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
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.

Installation
FR
! Conserver ce mode d’emploi pour pouvoir le consulter à tout moment. En cas de vente, de cession ou de déménagement, veiller à ce qu’il accompagne toujours le lave-linge. ! Lire attentivement les instructions : elles fournissent des conseils importants sur l’installation, l’utilisation et la sécurité de l’appareil. ! Cette notice, la garantie et les pièces servant à l’installation sont réunies dans un sachet.
Déballage et mise à niveau
Déballage
1. Sitôt le lave-linge déballé, s’assurer qu’il n’a pas été endommagé pendant son transport. S’il est abîmé, ne pas le raccorder et contacter le vendeur.
2. Enlever les quatre vis de protection pour le transport, le caoutchouc et la cale, placés dans la partie arrière (voir figure).
! Une mise à niveau minutieuse garantit une bonne stabilité de l’appareil et évite toute vibration et bruit surtout pendant l’essorage. ! Si l’appareil est posé sur de la moquette ou un tapis, agir sur les pieds de réglage de manière à ce qu’il y ait suffisamment de place pour assurer une bonne ventilation.
Raccordements eau et électricité
Raccordement du tuyau d’arrivée de l’eau
! Avant de raccorder le tuyau d’arrivée de l’eau, laisser couler l’eau jusqu’à ce quelle soit limpide.
1. Raccorder le tuyau d’arrivée de l’eau à l’appareil en le vissant à la prise d’eau prévue, dans la partie arrière en haut à droite (voir figure).
3. Boucher les trous à l’aide des bouchons plastique fournis dans le sachet.
4. Ces pièces sont à conserver car il faut les remonter en cas de déplacement du lave­linge pour éviter d’endommager l’intérieur de l’appareil pendant le transport. ! Les pièces d’emballage ne sont pas des jouets pour enfants.
Mise à niveau
1. Poser le lave-linge sur un sol plat et rigide, sans l’adosser à un mur ou à un meuble.
2. Pour compenser les irrégularités du sol, visser ou dévisser les pieds de réglage jusqu’à ce que l’appareil soit parfaitement à l’horizontale (il ne doit pas être incliné de plus de 2 degrés).
2. Reliez le tuyau d’alimentation en le vissant à un robinet d’eau froide à embout fileté 3/4 gaz (voir figure).
3. Attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit pas plié ou écrasé.
! La pression de l’eau doit être comprise entre les valeurs indiquées dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir page ci-contre).
! Si la longueur du tuyau d’alimentation ne suffit pas, s’adresser à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien agréé.
! Ne jamais utiliser de tuyaux d’arrivée usés mais uniquement ceux fournis avec l’appareil.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange
65 - 100 cm
! N’utiliser ni rallonges ni prises multiples.
FR
Raccorder le tuyau de vidange à un conduit d’évacuation ou à une évacuation murale placés à une distance du sol comprise entre 65 et 100 cm en évitant à tout prix de le plier.
Autrement, accrocher le tuyau de vidange à un évier ou à une baignoire, dans ce cas, fixer le support plastique fourni avec l’appareil au robinet
(voir figure).
L’extrémité libre du tuyau d’évacuation ne doit pas être plongée
dans l’eau.
! L’utilisation d’un tuyau de rallonge est absolument déconseillée mais si on ne peut faire autrement, il faut absolument qu’il ait le même diamètre que le tuyau original et sa longueur ne doit pas dépasser 150 cm.
Raccordement électrique
Avant de brancher la fiche dans la prise de courant, s’assurer que :
• la prise est bien reliée à la terre et est conforme aux réglementations en vigueur;
• la prise est bien apte à supporter la puissance maximale de l’appareil indiquée dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir ci-contre);
• la tension d’alimentation est bien comprise entre les valeurs figurant dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques (voir ci-contre);
• la prise est bien compatible avec la fiche de l’appareil. Autrement, remplacer la prise ou la fiche.
! Cet appareil ne doit pas être installé à l’extérieur, même à l’abri, car il est très dangereux de le laisser exposé à la pluie et aux orages.
! Après installation de l’appareil, la prise de courant doit être facilement accessible.
! Le câble ne doit être ni plié ni trop écrasé.
! Le câble d’alimentation et la fiche ne doivent
être remplacés que par des techniciens agréés.
Attention! Nous déclinons toute responsabilité en cas de non-respect des normes énumérées ci-dessus.
