Installation

 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 4 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.

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.

 Packaging materials should not be used as toys for

children.

Levelling

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 unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured in relation to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

 The water pressure at the tap must fall within the

values indicated in the Technical details table (see next page).

 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.

Connecting the drain hose

65 - 100 cm

Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a drainage duct or a wall drain located at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

 Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

 The cable should not be bent or compressed.

 The power supply cable must only be replaced by

authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible in the event that these regulations are not respected.

The first wash cycle

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);

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.

Specials wash cycles

Express (wash cycle 10) 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 (10 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 11) 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. Sport Light (wash cycle 12) 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. Sport Shoes (wash cycle 13) is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs simultaneously.

Personalisation

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:

Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg

Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

Wool: max. 1,5 kg

Silk: max. 1 kg

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

Garments requiring special care

Wool: all wool garments can be washed using

programme 7, even those carrying the "hand-wash only" detergents and do not exceed 1,5 kg of laundry. Silk: use special wash cycle 8 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 8. Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and use a liquid detergent. Use programme 9.

label. For best results, use special

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.

Precautions and tips

 This washing 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 was designed for domestic use only.  The washing machine must only be used by adults, in

accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.

 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 open the detergent dispenser drawer while

the machine is in operation.

 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.  The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

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 washing machine,

make sure the drum is empty.

Disposal

 Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.  The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old 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 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.

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.

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 (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;

Caring for the door and drum of your appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

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.

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.

Troubleshooting

Your washing machine could 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 washing machine does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The washing machine does not take in water (the indicator light for the first wash cycle stage flashes rapidly).

The washing machine continuously takes in and drains water.

Possible causes / Solutions:

 The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact.  There is no power in the house.

 The washing machine door is not closed properly.  The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.  The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.  The water tap has not been opened.  A delayed start has been set (see Personalisation).

 The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.  The hose is bent.  The water tap has not been opened.  There is no water supply in the house.  The pressure is too low.  The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

 The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from

the floor (see Installation).  The free end of the hose is under water (see Installation).  The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe. If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage, causing the washing machine to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti-draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.

The washing machine does not drain or spin.

The washing machine vibrates a lot during the spin cycle.

The washing machine leaks.

The "Functions" indicator lights and the "start/pause" indicator light flash, while one of the "phase in progress" indicator lights and the "door locked" indicator light will remain lit in a fixed manner.

There is too much foam.

 The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require

the drain phase to be started manually.  The drain hose is bent (see Installation).  The drainage duct is clogged.

 The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see Installation).  The washing machine is not level (see Installation).  The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see Installation).

 The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see Installation).  The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see

Care and maintenance).  The drain hose is not fixed properly (see Installation).

 Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute

and then switch it back on again.

If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.

 The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the

text for washing machines or hand and machine wash, or the like).  Too much detergent was used.

Service

Before calling for Assistance:

 Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see Troubleshooting);  Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;  If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre using the telephone number

provided on the guarantee certificate.

 Always request the assistance of authorised technicians.

Have the following information to hand:

 the type of problem;  the appliance model (Mod.);  the serial number (S/N). This information can be found on the data plate applied to the rear of the washing machine, and can also be found on the front of the appliance by opening the door.
