Installation

 Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future

reference. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or moved, make sure the instruction manual accompanies the washing machine to inform the new owner as to its operation and features.

 Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital

information on installation, use and safety.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Unpack the washing machine.

2. Check whether the washing machine has been damaged during transport. If this is the case, do not install it and contact your retailer.

3. Remove the four protective screws and the rubber washer with the respective spacer, situated on the rear of the appliance (see figure).

4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.

5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the washing machine needs to be moved to another location.

Warning: should the screws be re-used, make sure you fasten the shorter ones at the top.

 Packaging materials are not children's toys.

operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath the washing machine.

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 left-

hand 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 (see figure).

Electric and water connections

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the end of the inlet hose and screw the latter onto a cold water tap with a 3/4 gas

threaded mouth (see figure).

Before making the connection, allow the water to run freely until it is perfectly clear.

Levelling

Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly.

1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.

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 according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°. Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting during

2. Connect the other end of the water inlet hose to the washing machine, screwing it onto the appliance's cold water inlet, situated on the top right-hand side on the rear of the appliance (see figure).

3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.

 The water pressure at the tap must be within the

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

 If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact

a specialist store or an authorised serviceman.

 Never use hoses that have already been used.

Connecting the drain hose

65 - 100 cm

Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a draining duct or a wall drain situated between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

alternatively, place it over the edge of a basin, sink or tub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). The free end of the hose should not be underwater.

 Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.

 The power supply cable must never be bent or

dangerously compressed.

 The power supply cable must only be replaced by

an authorised serviceman.

Warning! The company denies all liability if and when these norms are not respected.

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed, and before you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme without a pre-wash cycle.

 We advise against the use of hose extensions; in

case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:  the socket is earthed and in compliance with the

applicable law;

 the socket is able to sustain the appliance's

maximum power load indicated in the Technical details table (on the right);

 the supply voltage is included within the values i

ndicated on the Technical details table (on the right);

 the socket is compatible with the washing

machine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

 The washing machine should not be installed in an

outdoor environment, not even when the area is sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.

 When the washing machine is installed, the mains

socket must be within easy reach.

Notes

-For programmes 8 and 9, we advise against exceeding a wash load of 3.5 kg.

-For programme 13 we advise against exceeding a wash load of 2 kg.

-For the anti-crease function: see Easy iron, opposite page. The information contained in the table is purely indicative.

Special programme

Daily Refresh (programme 11 for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (11 at 30°C), you can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.

We recommend the use of liquid detergent.

Personalisations

Setting the temperature

Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Programme table on page 6). The temperature can be lowered, or even set to a cold wash ( ).

Setting the spin speed

Turn the SPIN SPEED knob to set the spin speed for the programme selected. The maximum spin speeds for each programme are as follows:

Programmes Maximum spin speed

Cottone 1000 rpm Synthetics 800 rpm Wool 600 rpm Silk no

The spin speed can be lowered, or the spin cycle can be excluded altogether by selecting symbol . The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a spin speed higher than the maximum speed for each programme.

Note. To avoid excessive vibrations, before every spin cycle the machine distributes the load in a uniform manner

by continuously rotating the drum at a speed which is slightly faster than the normal washing speed. When, despite repeated attempts, the load is still not evenly distributed, the machine spins at a lower speed than the set frequency. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the machine attempts to distribute it instead of spinning. The balancing attempts may extend the total duration of the cycle, up to a maximum of 10 minutes.

Functions

To enable a function:

1. press the button corresponding to the desired function, according to the table below;

2. the function is enabled when the corresponding button is illuminated.

Note: The rapid flashing of the button indicates that the corresponding function cannot be selected for the programme set.

Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent won't necessarily make for a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build up on the interior of your appliance and even pollute the environment.

Open up the detergent dispenser and pour in the detergent and fabric softener, as follows.

compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash (powder)

compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle (powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately prior to the wash cycle start.

 Do not use hand wash detergent because it may

form too much foam.

compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

When pouring the softener in compartment 3, avoid exceeding the "max" level indicated. The softener is added automatically into the machine during the last wash. 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. For cleaning instructions, see page

10. The fabric softener should not overflow from the grid.

Preparing your laundry

 Divide your laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.

- the colours: separate coloured garments from

whites.  Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.  Do not exceed the weight limits stated below,

which refer to the weight when dry:

- Sturdy fabrics: max 6 kg

- Synthetic fabrics: max 2.5 kg

- Delicate fabrics: max 2 kg

- Wool: 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 900-1,200 g

1 towel 150-250 g

Special items

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow

case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without exceeding half the appliance load. Use programme 7 which excludes the spin cycle automatically.

Quilted coats and windbreakers: if they are padded with goose or duck down, they can be machine-washed. Turn the garments inside out and load a maximum of 2-3 kg, repeating the rinse cycle once or twice and using the delicate spin cycle.

Wool: for best results, use a specific detergent, taking care not to exceed a load of 1 kg.

compartment 4: Bleach

Bleach cycle

Traditional bleach should be used on sturdy white

fabrics, and delicate bleach for coloured fabrics, synthetics and for wool. When pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the "max" level indicated on compartment 4 (see

figure).

To run the bleach cycle alone, pour the bleach into compartment 4 and set the Rinse programme (for

cotton fabrics) and push the button

Bleaching.

Precautions and advice

 The washing machine was designed and built in

compliance with the applicable international safety regulations. The following information is provided for your safety and should consequently be read carefully.

General safety

 This appliance has been designed for non-

professional, household use and its functions must not be changed.

 This washing machine should only be used by

adults and in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.

 Never touch the washing machine when barefoot

or with wet or damp hands or feet.

 Do not pull on the power supply cable to unplug

the appliance from the electricity socket. Pull the plug out yourself.

 Do not open the detergent dispenser while the

appliance is in operation.

 Do not touch the drain water as it could reach

very high temperatures.

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.

 Disposing of an old washing machine:

before scrapping your appliance, cut the power supply cable and remove the appliance door.

Saving energy and respecting the environment

Environmentally-friendly technology

If you only see a little water through your appliance door, this is because thanks to the latest technology, your washing machine only needs less than half the amount of water to get the best results: an objective reached to respect the environment.

Saving on detergent, water, energy and time

 To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine

should be used with a full load. A full load instead of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on energy.

 Never force the washing machine door: this could

damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent any accidental openings.

 In the event of a malfunction, do not under any

circumstances touch internal parts in order to attempt repairs.

 Always keep children well away from the

appliance while in operation.

 The appliance door tends to get quite hot during

the wash cycle.

 Should it have to be moved, proceed with the

help 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 your laundry into the washing

machine, make sure the drum is empty.

Disposal

 Disposal of old electrical appliances The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), 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 pre-wash cycle is only necessary on

extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save on detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15% energy.

 Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving

them to soak before washing will cut down the need to wash them at high temperatures. A programme at 60°C instead of 90°C or one at 40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on energy.

 Use the correct quantity of detergent depending

on the water hardness, how soiled the garments are and the amount of laundry you have, to avoid wastage and to protect the environment: despite being biodegradable, detergents do contain ingredients that alter the natural balance of the environment. In addition, avoid using fabric softener as much as possible.

 If you use your washing machine from late in the

afternoon until the early hours of the morning, you will help reduce the electricity board's peak load. The Delay Timer option (see page 7) helps to organise your wash cycles accordingly.

 If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer,

select a high spin speed. Having the least water possible in your laundry will save you time and energy in the drying process.

ServiceTroubleshootingPrecautions CareProgrammes DetergentsInstallation Description

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water or electricity supply

 Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will

limit the wear of your appliance's water system and also prevent leaks.

 Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and

during all maintenance operations.

Cleaning your appliance

The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser

Remove the dispenser by raising it and pulling it out (see figure). Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

Caring for your appliance door and drum

 Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent

unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber that protects the pump, situated in the lower part of the same.

 Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug

the appliance.

To recover any objects that have fallen into the prechamber:

1. remove the plinth at the bottom on the front side of the washing machine by pulling from the side with your hands (see figure);

2. unscrew the lid rotating it anticlockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle

out. This is perfectly normal;

3. clean the interior 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 water inlet hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

 Never use hoses that have already been used.

Disassembly:

Press lightly on the large button on the front of the detergent dispenser and pull it upwards (fig. 1).

Fig. 1 Fig. 2

How to clean the detergent dispenser

Cleaning:

Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3) using an old toothbrush and, once the pair of siphons inserted in the top of compartments 1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check whether the same are not clogged and then rinse them.

Fig. 3

Reassembly:

Do not forget to reinsert the pair of siphons into the special housings and then to replace the dispenser into its seat, clicking it into place (fig. 4, 2 and 1).

consulter à tout moment. En cas de vente, de cession ou de déménagement, veillez à ce qu'il suive toujours le lave-linge pour que son nouveau propriétaire soit informé sur son mode de fonctionnement et puisse profiter des conseils correspondants.

 Lisez attentivement les instructions: elles fournissent

d'importantes informations sur l'installation, l'utilisation et la sécurité.

Déballage et mise à niveau

Déballage: enlever les 4 vis

1. Déballez le lave-linge.

2. Contrôlez que le lave-linge n'a pas été endommagé pendant le transport. S'il est abîmé, ne le raccordez pas et contactez votre revendeur.

3. Enlevez les quatre vis de protection pour le transport, le caoutchouc et la cale, placés dans la partie arrière (voir figure).

4. Bouchez les trous à l'aide des bouchons plastique fournis.

5. Conservez bien toutes ces pièces: il faudra les remonter en cas de transport du lave-linge.

 Attention: en cas de réutilisation, les vis plus

courtes doivent être montées dessus.

 Les emballages ne sont pas des jouets pour enfants.

Mise à niveau

Votre appareil peut savérer bruyant si vous navez pas bien réglé ses deux pieds avant.

1. Installez le lave-linge sur un sol plat et rigide, sans l'appuyer contre des murs, des meubles ou autre.

Une bonne mise à niveau garantit la stabilité de la machine et évite qu'il y ait des vibrations, du bruit et des déplacements en cours de fonctionnement. Si la machine est posée sur de la moquette ou un tapis, réglez les petits pieds de manière à ce qu'il y ait suffisamment d'espace pour assurer une bonne ventilation.

Mise en place, deplacements

Si votre lave-linge est muni d'un chariot spécial avec roues rétractiles, vous pouvez le déplacer facilement. Pour faire descendre ce chariot et pouvoir ainsi déplacer sans effort votre lave-linge, vous devez tirer le levier situé en bas à gauche, sous la base. Une fois le lave-linge déplacé,

remettez-le dans la position initiale. Le lave-linge est ainsi solidement mis en place. Voir figure. (Seulement pour les modéles prevues)

Raccordements hydrauliques et électriques

Raccordement du tuyau d'arrivée de l'eau

1. Montez le joint A sur

l'extrémité du tuyau

d'alimentation et vissez-le

à un robinet d'eau froide à

embout fileté 3/4 gaz (voir

figure).

Faites couler l'eau jusqu'à

ce qu'elle soit limpide et

sans impuretés avant de

raccorder.

2. Raccordez le tuyau d'alimentation au lavelinge en le vissant à la prise d'eau prévue, dans la partie arrière en haut à droite (voir figure).

3. Faites attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit ni plié ni écrasé.

2. Si le sol n'est pas parfaitement horizontal, vissez ou dévissez les petits pieds avant (voir figure) pour niveler

l'appareil; son angle d'inclinaison, mesuré sur le plan de travail, ne doit pas dépasser 2°.

 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, adressez-



vous à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien agréé.

 N'utilisez jamais de tuyaux usés.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange

Raccordez le tuyau d'évacuation, sans le plier, à un conduit d'évacuation ou à une évacuation murale

65 - 100 cm

placés à une distance du sol comprise entre 65 et 100 cm;

ou bien accrochez-le à un évier ou à une baignoire, dans ce cas, fixez le support en plastique fourni avec l'appareil au robinet (voir figure). L'extrémité libre du tuyau d'évacuation ne doit pas être plongée dans l'eau.

 N'utilisez ni rallonges ni prises multiples.

 Le câble ne doit être ni plié ni écrasé.

 Le câble d'alimentation ne doit être remplacé que

par des techniciens agréés.

Attention! Nous déclinons toute responsabilité en cas de non respect des normes énumérées ci-dessus.

Premier cycle de lavage

Avant la première utilisation de la machine, effectuez un cycle de lavage avec un produit lessiviel mais sans linge et sélectionnez le programme à 90°C sans prélavage.

Bac produits

 L'utilisation de tuyaux de rallonge est absolument

déconseillée, si vous ne pouvez vraiment pas faire autrement vous devrez utiliser un tuyau de même diamètre et de longueur maximum de 150 cm.

Branchement électrique

Avant de brancher la fiche dans la prise de courant, contrôlez que:  la prise dispose de mise à la terre et est conforme

aux normes;

 la prise est bien apte à supporter la puissance

maximale de la machine indiquée dans le tableau des Carcatéristiques 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 du lave-

linge. Autrement, remplacez la prise ou la fiche.

 Votre lave-linge ne doit pas être installé dehors,

même à l'abri, car il est très dangereux de le laisser exposé à la pluie et aux orages.

 Après installation du lave-linge, la prise de courant

doit être facilement accessible.
