●

When washing curtains, remove the hooks.

●

Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.

●

It is essential to wash new coloured items separately
when washing for the first time.

●

When washing fabrics requiring different wash
temperatures together, always select the lowest
temperature.

●

White items should not be washed with coloured
items.

●

Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)
should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.

●

Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic
washing machines.

●

Use the correct quantities of detergent.

●

For wool, use gentle detergent only in small
quantities.

●

Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care
and kept out of reach of children.

●

Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are
difficult to remove and should be treated before
washing with specific products, which can be found
in most household shops. In some cases it may help
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre­soak product or biological detergent.

●

If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.

●

Once you have finished using the machine, you are
advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap.

Maintenance and cleaning

You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the
electricity supply, before you can carry out any
cleaning or maintenance work.

Descaling

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,
and according to the softening powder manufacturer's
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of
lime deposits.

After each wash

Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to
preserve the door seal.

Maintenance wash

With the use of low temperature washes it is possible
to get a build up of residues inside the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash be
performed on a regular basis.

To run a maintenance wash:

●

The drum should be empty of laundry.

●

Select the hottest cotton wash programme.

●

Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a
powder (such as Ariel Futur).

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer

The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer
should be cleaned regularly.
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards
and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to
remove any traces of accumulated powder.
To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive
compartment should be removed.

Cleaning the drawer recess

Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean
the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is
removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme
without any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning the pump

The pump should be inspected if

• The machine does not empty and/or spin

• The machine makes an unusual noise during draining

due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking
the pump.

Proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the appliance.

• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.

• Place a container close to the pump (A) to collect

any spillage.

• Pull out the emergency emptying hose (B), place it in

the container and remove its cap.

P0010

P0009

P0038

• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump
cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry
up spillage of water when removing the cover.

• Remove any objects from the pump impeller by

rotating it.

• Refit the cap on the emergency emptying hose and
place the latter back in its seat.

• Screw the pump cover fully in.

Warning

When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the
pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash
cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the
cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it
is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.

Cleaning the water inlet filter

If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.

Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.

Tighten up the inlet hose.

The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.

●

Turn off the water tap.

●

Unscrew the inlet hose.

●

Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and
that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor
and let water drain out.

●

Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition
the emergency emptying hose after having put the
cap on again.

●

When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to
empty out the machine:

• Pull out the plug from the power socket;

• Close the water tap;

• If necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;

• Place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the
emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its
cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, refit the cap on the hose.
Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;

• Clean the pump if necessary as previously described;

• Replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after
having plugged it;

• Screw the pump cover again.

Something not working

Please carry out the following checks before contacting your local Service Force agent.

IMPORTANT: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by
incorrect use or installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.

During machine operation it is possible that the red Start/Pause pilot light flashes, one of the following alarm
codes appears on the display and some acoustic signals sound to indicate that the machine is not working:

-

EE1100

: problem with the water supply

-

EE2200

: problem with water draining

-

EE4400

: door open

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the “Start/Pause” button to restart the programme. If after all
checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.

The drain hose may be squashed or kinked. (

EE2200

)

●

The “rinse hold” option has been selected.

●

The drain pump may be blocked. (

EE2200

)

●

The “None” option has been selected

●

The drainage system pipes are blocked.

●

The programme “Soak”, which ends with water left in the tub, has
been selected .

There is water on the floor

●

Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates
too much foam).

●

Check whether there are any leaks from the inlet hose fittings. It is not
always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see
if it is damp.

●

The inlet or drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned.

●

The cap on the emergency emptying hose has not been replaced after
cleaning the filter.

Unsatisfactory washing results

●

Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. An
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and
causes lime scale to form.

●

Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing

●

The correct wash programme/temperature has not been selected.

●

Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.

19

Symptom

The door will not open

Solution

●

The water level is too high.

●

The machine is heating the water.

●

The drum is turning.

●

The Door pilot light is still on.

Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin

●

The electronic balance control device has cut in because the laundry is
not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by
reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before
the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after few
minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the
machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and
select the spin programme. If the load is too small, add more items,
redistribute the load manually and then select the spin programme.

The machine makes an unusual
noise

●

The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor
ensures a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the
drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.

No water is visible in the drum

●

Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.

The machine vibrates when
spinning

●

The internal packing has not been removed.

●

The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.

●

The machine is not level and stable (check diagonally).

●

The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.

●

Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

The green Start/Pause light
flashes and the display seems off

●

The energy save system is enabled. Press the any button to switch the
appliance on.

material, insert a rigid support base under the feet to
prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base
should protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of
the machine.

Warning

The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile

carpeting.

Installation on a suspended floor

Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible
to vibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend
you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm
thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor
boards with screws. If possible install the appliance in
one of the corners of the room, where the floor is
more stable.

Note

Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a
breakdown.

Plumbing in

Your new washing machine has been designed to be
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it
may be connected to a suitable existing tap with the
drain hose discharging into a sink.

The appliance has an inlet hose, with female 3/4” BSP
thread connector. If this connection is not compatible
with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety
of connectors are available from good hardware stores
and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic
plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing
must be carried out by a competent person, or
qualified plumber.

Water inlet

The inlet hose is screwed on the back of the appliance.

Important!
Do not place the inlet hose downwards. Angle the
hose to the left or right depending on the position of
your water tap.

1.

Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut.
After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten
the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

The appliance must be connected to a cold
water supply.

2 Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread. The

inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short
and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have
to purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for
this type of use.

Installation should comply with local water authority
and building regulations’ requirements.

A minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar is required for
safe operation of the appliance.

If you cannot make the cold water connection direct
from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the
appliance from your cold water storage system.

P1088

There should be a minimum vertical distance of 5.02m
(16.5 ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom
of the water storage tank.

Water drainage

This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed
into your home's drainage system using one of the
following methods.

1. Into a drainage standpipe.

Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using
the “U” piece” supplied.

Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should
have an internal diameter of approximately 38mm thus
ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose
and standpipe.

When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top
of the standpipe is no more than 90cm (35.4'') and no
less than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level.

The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4
metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is
available from your local Service Force Centre. The
joining piece must have an internal diameter of 18mm.

If your drain hose looks like this (see below) you do
not require the “U” piece”. Just push the hose firmly
into the standpipe.

2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.

If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove
any blanking plug that may be in place.

Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a
clip, ensure a loop is formed in the drain hose (see
diagram) to prevent waste from the sink entering the
washing machine.

Important

Before connecting the machine to new pipework or to
pipework that has not been used for some time, run off
a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris
that may have collected in the pipes.

Levelling

Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the
feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they incorporate
a self locking nut, but the machine MUST be level and
stable. If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level.

After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock nuts.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.

Accurate levelling prevents vibration, (see note on
positioning), noise and displacement of the machine
during operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a
wooden floor.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.

In the interest of the environment

Washing machines and dishwashers should be
connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water will
then be taken to a sewage works for treatment before
being discharged safely into a river.

It is essential that these appliances are not connected
to the surface water drainage system as this water is
discharged directly into a river or stream and may
cause pollution.
If you require any further advice please contact your
local water authority.

The appliance is pre-arranged for a magnetic closure of
the door. To enable a correct operation of this device,
it is necessary to screw the counter-magnet (6) (steel
disk + rubber ring) into the inner side of the door.
Its position must correspond to the magnet (4) on the
appliance (See fig. D).

Recommendations regarding
the construction and fitting of
a base when the installation
requires an integrated
appliance to be raised

Where the appliance has been raised by mounting onto
a wooden base provided by the installer. The material
used to construct the base should have a non slip
surface, be water repellent and if possible be one solid
piece.
If it is not possible to use one solid piece, due to the
additional height required, ensure that any additional
strips of timber are glued and screwed to the underside
of the base (see Fig. F).

Drill four fixing holes see Fig. G

Position the base into the recess with its front edge as
far forward as the adjoining plinth line will allow.

The reason for placing the base in this position
is to allow a small strip of beading to be fitted in
front of the appliance feet.

Fix the base firmly to the floor using four appropriate
countersunk screws (see Fig. H).

With the appliance installed adjust all four feet ensuring
the machine is stable, and a clearance of approximately
5 mm is left between the top of the machine and the
underside of the worktop.

A final check for stability should be carried out with the
machine on spin with a load, this will identify the need
for any further fine adjustment to the feet.

A strip of beading approximately 605 mm W, x 5 mm
H, x 25 mm D must be screwed down into the base
directly in front of the machine’s feet, this will provide
additional security.

If required an additional door magnet, part number
1242394-00/3 and disc, part number 1242393-00/5 are
available from spare parts.
