Hints & tips on washing
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the first few times you use the appliance.
The average weights of the most common items are listed below as a guide:
1000g = 1 kg
Sheet 700-1000 g
Pillow case 100-200 g
Tablecloth 400-500 g
Serviette 50-100 g
Tea towel 70-120 g
Linen hand towel 100-150 g
Towelling hand towel 150-250 g
Towelling bath towel 700-1000 g
Bath robe 1000-1500 g
Man’s shirt 200-300 g
Apron 150-200 g
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with small ones.
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour-fastness and how dirty it is.
Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may unravel.
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws etc). as these could damage the drain pump.
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.
Warning!
If the programme begins later, in case of Delay start selected, a dosing container must be used for the liquid detergent, e.g. a ball, as supplied by the detergent manufacturers.
Underwired bras must NOT be machine washed.

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.
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.
SM004
SM005
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.
P0038
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.
• Open the pump door.
P1114
• Place a container close to the pump to collect any
spillage.
• Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the
container and remove its cap.
17
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump
P1231
cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the cover.
P1115
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Refit the inlet hose.
Remove any objects from the pump impeller by
rotating it.
• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat.
P1117
• Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.
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.
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;
• Open the pump door;
• 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, put the cap back 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;
• Refit the the pump and close the door.
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.

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 pilot light of the button alarm codes appears on the display and some acoustic signals sound to indicate that the machine is not working:
E10 : problem with the water supply
-
E20 : problem with water draining
-
E40 : door open
-
EF0 : Anti-flooding system has activated
­Once the problem has been eliminated, press the button
10 to restart the programme. If after all checks, the
problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.
10 flashes, one of the following
Symptom
The machine does not start

The machine does not empty and/or does not spin
Solution
The door has not been closed. (E40 )
The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket.
There is no supply at the socket.
The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown.
The button 10 has not been pressed.
The Delay start option has been selected.
The Child lock option has been enabled.
The water tap is closed. (E10 )
The filter in the inlet hose is blocked. (E10 )
The inlet hose may be squashed or kinked. (E10 )
The door has not been closed. (E40 )
The end of the drain hose is too low.
The end of the drain hose is submerged in water.
There is no vent in the end of the drain hose.
The drain hose may be squashed or kinked. (E20)
The Rinse Hold or Quiet option has been selected.
The drain pump may be blocked. (E20)
The No Spin option has been selected
The drainage system pipes are blocked.
There is water on the floor
Unsatisfactory washing results
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.
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
Solution
The green Start/Pause light flashes and the display seems off
The machine vibrates when spinning
The door will not open
Spinning starts late or the machine does not spin
The machine makes an unusual noise
The energy save system is enabled. Press any button to switch the appliance on.
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 water level is too high.
The machine is heating the water.
The drum is turning.
In any case the door can be opened only when the “Door lock” light has gone out.
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.
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes a different 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
The display shows the alarm code
EF0:
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically using very little water without affecting performance.
Disconnect the appliance and contact the Service Force Centre.
