Extensions are inadvisable. In case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length. In case of wall draining pipes, their efficiency must be checked by a qualified technician. If the dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be drain trap problems causing the washing machine to load and unload water continuously. In order to avoid such an inconvenience, special antidrain trap valves are available in shops.

Putting your appliance in place and moving it.

If your washing machine is equipped with a special set of retractable wheels you can easy move it. To lower the wheels and thus move the appliance effortlessly, just pull the lever, situated on the lefthand side beneath the base. Once the appliance is in the required position, put the lever back in place. The washing machine is now firmly in place.

After installing your new washing machine, start a wash cycle (with the appliance empty) by setting programme "1" at 60 degrees C.

Starting the washing machine in the right way is important for the quality of your wash, for preventing problems and for lengthening the life of your appliance. After loading your washing and pouring in the detergent together with any additives, always check that:

Useful tips to avoid mistakes

Never use your washing ma-

chine to wash... torn, fraying or

non-hemmed linen. If it is absolutely necessary, place it in a bag for protection. Brightly coloured linen with whites.

Persistent or special stains Treat these before washing by rubbing the toughest stains with a special detergent, with detergent paste or specific stain removers (see the inset on treating special stains with stain removers on page 9).

Watch the weight! For best results, do not exceed the weight limits stated below

(figures show weight when dry):

- Sturdy fabrics:

maximum 5 kg

- Synthetic fabrics:

maximum 2.3 kg

- Delicate fabrics:

maximum 2 kg

- Pure virgin wool:

maximum 1 kg

- Towelling:

maximum 2.3 kg

How much does it weigh? 1 sheet 400-500 gr. 1 pillowcase 150-200 gr. 1 tablecloth 400-500 gr. 1 bathrobe 900-1,200 gr. 1 towel 150-250 gr.

Coloured T-shirts, printed ones and shirts last longer if turned inside out before washing. Printed T-shirts and sweatshirts should always be ironed inside out.

Salopette alert.

Very popular "salopette" type overalls have straps with hooks that can damage the drum of your washing machine or other garments during the wash. By placing the hooks in the bib pocket and fastening them with safety pins, all risks are avoided.

Holidays: unplug the appli-

ance.

When you go on holiday, we recommend that you unplug your washing machine, turn off the water inlet tap and leave the door open or ajar. This way, both the drum and the gasket will remain nice and dry and unpleasant odours will not develop inside the washing machine.

WOOL CYCLE

For best results, use

a specific detergent,

taking care not to

exceed a load of 1kg.

How to wash almost anything

Curtains. Curtains tend to crease a great deal. Here is a tip to reduce creasing: fold the curtains and place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Do not load anything else, so that the overall weight does not exceed the half load. Remem-

ber to use the specific programme 10 which automatically excludes the spin cycle.

Quilted coats and wind-

cheaters.

You can wash quilted coats and wind-cheaters, too, if they are padded with goose or duck down. The important thing is not to run a 5 kg load.

Once you have removed mud and dirt from trainers, you can wash them with jeans and other tough garments. Do not wash trainers with whites.

Cashmere Gold: As gentle as a hand wash

The first washing machine to have "The Woolmark Company" recognition.

The Cashmere Gold programme was designed to machine wash the most delicate and precious woollen and Cashmere garments. The Merloni Elettrodomestici "Wool-Cashmere" programme has

been approved by The Woolmark Company for washing woollen garments labelled "hand wash only" featuring The Woolmark Company Brands. This is the first delicate hand wash cycle offered by a washing machine approved

by The Woolmark Company. (M.0206). This result has been achieved thanks to the speed of the drum (90 rpm), even during the rinse phase, which prevents the fibres from rubbing.

Always use programme 9 ( wool) with all garments labelled hand wash: the tub with a hand in it. it is advisable to use specific detergents for woollen garments.

- Red wine. Leave to soak with detergent, rinse and treat with acetic acid or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residue with bleach.

- Blood. Fresh stains should be treated immediately with cold water. In the event of dry blood stains, leave to soak overnight with a special detergent and then rub with soapy water.

- Dry grease stains. Moisten with turpentine, dab the stains with your fingertips and a cotton cloth, after placing the garment on a soft surface.

- Rust. Oxysalt (can be found in a chemists) hot molten, or a cold anti-rust product. Old stains may have already damaged the fabric: risk of holes

- Mould stains Treat with bleach, rinse thoroughly (only white and coloured garments resistant to chlorine).

- Oil paint. Moisten with detergent petrol, dab the stains after placing the garment on top of a soft cloth, then treat

repeatedly with the detergent.

- Ink and biro. Dab with cotton soaked in methyl alcohol or alcohol at 90°.

- Tar. Dab with fresh butter, rub in turpentine then wash immediately.

- Wax. Scrape away, then run a hot iron between two sheets of absorbent paper. Then rub in cotton with turpentine or

methyl alcohol.

- Chewing gum. Rub in nail polish remover and wipe with a clean rag.

- Mould. Cotton and white linen should be placed in a solution of 5 parts water, one bleach and a spoon of vinegar, then

washed immediately. For other white fabrics, use hydrogen peroxide at 10 volumes and wash immediately.

- Lipstick. Dab with ether on wool or cotton. Use trichlorethylene for silk.

- Nail polish. Place a sheet of absorbent paper on the side of the stain, wet it with nail polish remover, shifting the garment

as the sheet gradually changes colour.

- Grass. Dab with a wad of cotton soaked in methyl alcohol.

Liquid or powder detergents are sold together with special containers that are to be placed directly inside the washing machine drum, according to the instructions found on the detergent box. Never use hand wash detergent, because it may form too much foam, which could damage the washing machine. One last secret: when washing with cold water, always reduce the amount of detergent you use: it dissolves less easily in cold water than in hot water, so part of it would be wasted.

Cutting costs efficiently

FULL LOAD

The best way to save on energy, water, detergent and time is to use your washing machine, washing a full recommended load. A full load instead of two half loads allows you to SAVE up to 50% of energy.

USE LESS DETERGENT IF: you are washing few garments, the washing is only soiled lightly, foam forms during washing or the water is not very hard, or soft even (please see small table above with the degrees of water hardness). To find out how hard the water in your area is, contact your local Water Works.

IS PRE-W ASHING STRICTL Y NECESSAR Y?

Only for extremely soiled garments. Programming a wash WITHOUT pre-washing for lightly soiled or medium soiled garments allows you to SAVE on detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15% of energy.

IS W ASHING WITH HOT WA TER STRICTL Y NECESSAR Y?

Treating stains with a stain remover or soaking garments with dry stains in water before washing can reduce the need to programme a wash using hot water. Use a wash programme at 60° to SAVE up to 50% of energy.

BEFORE USING A DRYING CYCLE ...

Select a high speed spin cycle, where the spin speed can be adjusted, if the washing should be dried in a tumble-dryer. A reduced water content in the washing allows you to SAVE both time and energy in the drying programme.

the manufacturer's instructions. The fabric softener is automatically inserted into the machine during the last rinse. At the end of the wash programme, some water will be left in compartment 3. This is used for the inlet of denser fabric softeners into the machine, i.e. to dilute the more concentrated softeners. Should more than a normal amount of water remain in compartment 3, this means the emptying device is blocked, thus interrupting the suction effect of the device.

For cleaning instructions, see page 13. Never pour fabric softeners together with starch into the dispenser, as the overflow system could get clogged.

Fabric softeners can be used for towelling fabrics, knitwear, curtains, etc. Pour the fabric softener into compartment 3 of the dispenser following

The washing machine comes equipped with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any cleaning or maintenance. Small objects may accidentally fall into the pump: coins, hair clips, loose buttons and other small items. T o avoid possible damage, they are withheld in an accessible pre-chamber , situated at the lower end of the pump.

To access this pre-chamber, just remove the panel covering the bottom of the washing machine (fig. 1); then lift the cover rotating it anti-clockwise (fig. 2) and check its contents accurately.

The rubber hose

Check the rubber hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately. When you use your washing machine, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

Fig. 2

Warning: make sure that the wash cycle has come to a full stop and unplug the appliance before removing the lid as well as before any

type of maintenance procedure. It is normal to find that a little water comes out after removing the lid. When replacing the panel, make sure you insert the hooks situated at the bottom of the washing machine in the right slots before pushing it back against the appliance.

the job. It is just as important for you to keep it in shape.

ourour

ourour

Your washing machine is designed to last a lifetime without any problems. A few simple steps help keep it in shape and last longer.

Firstly, you must turn off the water tap after each wash:

the constant pressure of water could warp a few of the component parts. In addition, by doing so, you will avoid the risk of leaks when no-one is at home.

If the water in your area is too hard, use a deliming product

(water is hard if it often leaves whitish stains around taps or drains, especially of bath tubs. For more accurate information as to the type of water in your system, call the local water works or a local plumber). Pockets must always be emptied by removing even coins, pins, badges and any other hard object. The washing machine exterior should be cleaned with a cloth dipped in lukewarm soapy water.

It is important to wash

the detergent dispenser

regularly.

To prevent dried washing

powder from

accumulating, place the

dispenser under running

water for a few minutes.

Never exaggerate with detergent doses.

Normal detergents already contain deliming agents. Only if the water is particularly hard, that is, rich in lime content, do we recommend the use of a specific product at every wash. A periodical wash cycle with a dose of a deliming product, without detergents or washing, may prove useful. Never use too much detergent or additives because this could cause an excess amount of foam, scaling and possible damage to the component parts of your washing machine.

Warning

This appliance is equipped with an electronic autobalancing device (

Balance Control)

enables the spin cycle to be run at high speed only with well-distributed wash loads. An unbalanced wash load would in fact seriously damage the appliance.

Before each spin cycle phase, the ABC auto-balancing system makes the drum perform repeated revolutions, both clockwise and anticlockwise, in order to distribute the garments inside it uniformly and then to start the spin cycle off gently .

Auto

that

In special load conditions, these revolutions may not be sufficient to distribute the weight inside the drum evenly (if there are towel bathrobes, blankets and sheets inside it that have formed a “ball”, etc.).

In these conditions, two different things may happen:

- the ABC system “accepts” the imbalance, but reduces the spin speed. In this case, the clothes will come out wetter than usual;

- the ABC system deems this imbalance to be beyond the acceptability threshold and excludes the spin cycle. In this case, take out the washing, unroll the garments and put them all back into the appliance and set the spin cycle programme.

In both cases, it is not a matter of poor appliance quality, but raher one of the more advanced features it has to protet it from breakages, vibrations, movements on the floor or other inconveniences.

Installation et déménagement

Quand votre lavelinge arrive

Que votre lave-linge soit neuf ou que vous veniez juste de déménager, son bon fonctionnement dépend en grande partie de son installation.

près avoir déballé l'appareil, vérifiez s'il est en bon état. En cas de doute, faites appel à un professionnel du secteur. Pour permettre son

transport, l'in-térieur du lavelinge a été blo-qué à l'aide de quatre vis et de caoutchoucs sur le pan- neau arrière de la machine.

Déblocage: enlever les 4 vis!

Avant de brancher votre lave-linge, enlevez les vis, le caoutchouc et la cale (conservez bien toutes ces pièces) et bouchez les trous à l'aide des cache-trous en plastique fournis avec l'appareil. Attention: en cas de réutilisation, les vis plus courtes doivent

être montées dessus.

Mise à niveau

Pour bien fonctionner, il est important que votre lave-linge soit bien posé à plat. Pour bien le niveler, il suffit d'agir sur ses pieds; son angle d'inclinaison , mesuré sur le plan de travail, ne doit pas depasser 2°. Si vous avez de la moquette, attention à ce que la ventilation ne soit pas bouchée au niveau de la zone dappui.

Les pieds avant sont réglables

Conservez les vis de

blocage et les cales. En cas

de déménagement vous

pourrez vous en resservir

pour bloquer les pièces

internes du lave-linge et le

protéger ainsi contre les

chocs pendant son

transport.

Raccordement à la prise d'eau

La pression de l'eau doit être comprise entre les valeurs indiquées sur la plaquette fixée à l'arrière de l'appareil. Raccordez le tuyau d'arrivée que vous trouvez, démonté, à l'intérieur du tambour à une prise d'eau froide à embout fileté 3/4 gaz. Si les tuyauteries de l'eau sont neuves ou inutilisées depuis longtemps, faites couler l'eau jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit limpide et sans impuretés avant de raccorder. Raccordez le tuyau à la machine, au niveau de la prise d'eau prévue en haut, à droite.

Prise d'eau à monter en haut à droite.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange

Un crochet situé à l'arrière de la machine, en haut, vous permet éventuellement de fixer le tuyau de vidange. Introduisez l'autre extrémité dans un conduit d'évacuation murale ou bien accrochez-le à l'évier ou à la baignoire en évitant de l'écraser ou de trop le plier. Il faut absolument qu'il débouche entre 60 et 100 cm de haut. Si vous êtes obligé de fixer l'extrémité à moins de 60 cm audessus du sol, il faut que vous fixiez le tuyau au crochet susmentionné prévu dans le panneau arrière de la machine.

Le crochet à utiliser si le tuyau débouche à moins de 60 cm de haut.

Si le tuyau évacue dans la baignoire ou dans le lavabo, appliquez le support en plastique et attachez-le au robinet.

Le guide pour le vindange en baignoire ou lavabo.

Ne le laissez jamais tremper dans l'eau.

L'utilisation de rallonges est absolument déconseillée. Si vous ne pouvez vraiment pas vous en passer, il faut qu'elle ait le même diamètre que le tuyau original et moins de 150 cm de long. En cas d'évacuation murale, faites vérifier son efficacité par un professionnel agréé. Si vous habitez en étage dans un immeuble, il peut y avoir des phénomènes de siphonnement qui font que votre lave-linge prend et évacue l'eau continuellement. Pour supprimer cet inconvé-nient , vous pouvez trouver dans le commerce des valves spéciales antisiphonnement.

Branchement électrique

Avant de brancher la machine à la prise de courant, contrôlez que:

1) la prise de courant est conforme aux normes et que sa charge électrique est bien apte à supporter la puissance maximum de la machine figurant sur la plaquette des caractéri-stiques;

2) la tension d'alimentation est bien comprise entre les valeurs figurant sur la plaquette des caractéri-stiques;

3) la prise est bien compati- ble avec la fiche de la machine. En cas d'incompatibilité, n'utilisez pas d'adaptateurs mais remplacez la prise ou la fiche;

4) votre installation électrique dispose bien d'une "mise à la terre".

5) une fois la machine branchée, elle ne s'appuie pas sur le câble d'alimentation.

Attention !

Le constructeur et le vendeur déclinent toute responsabilité et aucune garantie ne sera due en cas de modification apportée au raccordement prévu par l'usine, de mauvais raccordement électrique, de modification électrique, mécanique ou hydraulique subis par
