Installation
GB
! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe
place for future reference. If the washer-dryer 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 washer-dryer from its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washer-dryer 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 . R e m o v e t h e 4
protective screws (used
during transportation)
and the rubber washer
with the corresponding
spacer, locat e d 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 washer-dryer 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 washer-dryer.
Connecting the electricity and
water supplies
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwin g it
to a cold water tap
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 washerdryer by screwing it
onto the corresponding
wa ter i n le t o f t he
appliance, which is
situated on the top
rig ht-h a nd s i de o f
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 washer-dryer on a flat sturdy floor,
without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or anything else.
2. If the floor is not
p e r f e c t l y l e v e l ,
c o m p e n s a t e f o r
any unevenne ss by
tightening or loosening
the adjustable front
feet (see figure); the
angle of inclination,
measured in relation to
the worktop, must not
exceed 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.
Connecting the drain hose
65 - 100 cm
Where it connects to
the waste water pipe
cut end off spigot or
remove the blanking cap
Con n ect t h e drai n
hose, without bending
it, to a draining duct or
a wall drain situated
between 65 and 100
cm from the floor;
• the supply voltage is included within the values
indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed on
the machine.
• the socket is compatible with the washing
machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace
the socket or the plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp
fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp
socket for immediate use. Before using the
appliance please read the instructions below.
GB
The drain hose may
b e c on ne c t e d t o
an under-sink trap.
Before connec t i ng
the drain hose from
the machine ensure
that any bl anks or
removable ends have
been taken off the
spigot.
If it is placed over the
edge of a basin or sink
be sure the free end of
the hose should not
be underwater.
! 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. Ensure that if the drain
hose is pushed into a standpipe, that the end does
not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose
is pushed down too far, this may cause the machine
to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.
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 on the Technical
Data Plate fixed on the machine;
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE
CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA
approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be
used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse
cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a
replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of
the correct colour as indicated by the coloured
marking or the colour that is embossed in words
on the base of the plug. Replacements can be
obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded
plug and you should wish to re-route the mains
cable through partitions, units etc., please
ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere
rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13
amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in
compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible
without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself,
you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be
accidentally inserted into a socket.
Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative
plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green & Yellow Earth
Blue Neutral
Brown Live

GB
GREEN &
YELLOW
BROWN
BLUE
13 ampere fuse
CROSS-BAR
CORD GRIP
As the colours of the wires in the lead may
not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed
as follows:
Connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal
marked E or or coloured Green or Green &
Yellow.
Connect Brown wire to terminal marked L or
coloured Red.
Connect Blue wire to terminal marked N or
coloured Black.
If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be
fitted with a 13 amp fuse, either in the plug or
adaptor or at the distribution board.
If you are in any doubt regarding the electrical
supply to your machine, consult a qualified
electrician before use.
How to connect an alternative plug:
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE NEUTRAL (N)
BROWN LIVE (L)

! 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, using the
wash cycle “Auto Clean” (see “Cleaning the
washing machine”).
Disposing of the appliance:
When disposing of the appliance please
remove the plug by cutting the mains cable
as close as possible to the plug body and
dispose of it as described above.
! The washing machine should not be installed
in an outdoor environment, not even where
the area is sheltered, because it may be very
dangerous to leave it exposed to damp, rain
and thunderstorms.
! When the washing machine is installed, the
mains socket must be within easy reach.
! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
! The power supply cable must never be bent
or dangerously compressed.

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 washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks.
• Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it and
during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washer-dryer
• 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.
• The washer-dryer has a “Auto Clean”
programme for its internal parts that must be
run with no load in the drum.
For maximum performance you may want
to use either the detergent (i.e. a quantity
10% the quantity specified for lightly-soiled
garments) or special additives to clean the
washer-dryer. We recommend running a
cleaning programme every 40 wash cycles.
To start the programme press buttons A and
B simultaneously for 5 seconds (see figure).
The programme will start automatically and
will last approximately 70 minutes. To stop the
cycle press the START/PAUSE button.
Cleaning the pump
The washer-dryer 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.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and
unplug the appliance.
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. Unscrew the lid
by rotating it anticlockwise (seefigure):
a little water may
trickle out. This is
perfectly normal.

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 the door and drum of your
appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to
6
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.
