Installation
GB
! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
place for future reference. If the washing machine
is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the
instruction manual remains with the machine so
that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/
herself with its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information relating to the safe installation
and operation of the appliance.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washing machine has not
been damaged during the transportation process.
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do
not proceed any further with the installation process.
3. Remove the 3 protective screws (used
during transportation)
and the rubber washer
with the corresponding
spacer, located on the
rear part of the appliance (see figure).
4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs
provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need
them again if the washing machine needs to be
moved to another location.
! Packaging materials should not be used as
toys for children.
Levelling
Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with
stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive
noise and prevent it from shifting while it is operating. 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
1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tab using
a ¾ gas threaded connection (see figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet
hose to the washing
machine by screwing
it onto the corresponding water inlet of the
appliance, which is situated on the top righthand side of the rear
part of the appliance
(see figure).
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 details table
(see next page).
1. Install the washing
machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting
it up against walls,
furniture cabinets or
anything else.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, compensate for any une-
venness by tightening
or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure);
the angle of inclination, measured in relation to
the worktop, must not exceed 2°.
2
! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialised shop or an authorised technician.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
! Use the ones supplied with the machine.

GB
alternatively, rest it 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
washing machine. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
! The washing 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.
! When the washing machine has been installed,
the electricity socket must be within easy reach.
Once the appliance has been installed, and
before you use it for the first time, run a wash
cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the
wash cycle 2.

Care and maintenance
GB
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the washing machine and help to prevent
leaks.
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it
and during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing 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
Remove the dispenser
by raising it and pulling
it out (see figure).
Wash it under running
water; this operation
should be repeated
frequently.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover panel on the lower front
part of the washing
machine (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwise (seefigure): a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly normal;
3. clean the inside thoroughly;
4. screw the lid back on;
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks
are securely in place before you push it onto the
appliance.
Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order 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 pre-chamber which
protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.
! 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.
! Never use second-hand hoses.

The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary according to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 3 with a temperature of 60°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments
which can be washed at 60°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 4 with a temperature of 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments
which can be washed at 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
For all Test Institutes:
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 4 with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle 6; with a temperature of 40°C.
Cotton Standard 20° (wash cycle 7) ideal for heavily 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.
Express (wash cycle 11) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and
therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (11 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1,5 kg.
Sport Intensive (
wash cycle
12) is for washing heavily soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the “Table of wash cycles”.Sport Light (
wash cycle
13) is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results,
we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the “Table of wash cycles”. We recommend using a
liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Special Shoes (
wash cycle
14) is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs simulta-
neously.

Personalisation
Setting the temperature
Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Table of wash cycles).
The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash .
The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the maximum value
set for each wash cycle.
Functions
The various wash functions available with this washing machine will help to achieve the desired results, every time.
To activate the functions:
1. Press the button corresponding to the desired function;
2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated.
Note: If the indicator light flashes rapidly, this signals that this particular function may not be selected in conjunction with the
selected wash cycle.
Selecting this option enables you to suitably adjust drum rotation, temperature and water to a reduced load of lightly soiled
cotton and synthetic fabrics (refer to the “Programme table”). “” enables you to wash in less time thereby saving water
and electricity. We suggest using a liquid detergent suitably measured out to the load quantity.
! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, , .
Extra rinse
By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly
useful for sensitive skin.
! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 11, .
GB
1400-600
By selecting this function, reduces the spin speed.
! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 9, .
Delay timer
This timer delays the start time of the wash cycle by up to 12 hours.
Press the button repeatedly until the indicator light corresponding to the desired delay time switches on. The fifth time the button
is pressed, the function will be disabled.
N.B. Once the START/PAUSE button has been pressed, the delay time can only be modified by decreasing it until launching

GB
Detergent dispenser drawer
Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of
detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause
build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to
environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these
create too much foam.
! 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.
Open the detergent dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
Garments requiring special care
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme
8, even those carrying the “hand-wash only” label. For
best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 1,5
kg of laundry.
Silk: use special wash cycle 9 to wash all silk garments.
We recommend the use of special detergent which has
been designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or
mesh bag. Use wash cycle 9.
Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and use
a liquid detergent. Use programme 10.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations 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.
ompartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
Preparing the laundry
• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the
weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of wash
cycles”.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

autrement, il faut absolument qu’il ait le même
diamètre que le tuyau original et sa longueur ne
doit pas dépasser 150 cm.
