Moving and Installing
Removing the Transit Bolts
Four transit bolts keep the interior of the washing machine in place while it’s being moved. They need to be removed before installation. Use a spanner (not supplied) and follow the instructions
detailed below.
Moving the Washing Machine from One Location to Another
Before you move the washing machine:
• Shut off the tap and run the washing machine to drain the water. Drain any remaining water from the pump hose.
• Disconnect the mains cable.
• Attach the transit bolts.
To remove the transit bolts:
1. Use a spanner to loosen the four bolts. They are located at the rear side of the washing machine.
2. Pull the bolts out horizontally. Make sure the entire bolt is removed.
3. Push the four cover caps (included with your accessories) into the respective bolt holes.
Don’t run the washing machine without removing the transit bolts, as this can cause
excessive vibrations.
You’ll need the anchor bolts again if you move the washing machine, so make sure you keep
them in a safe place.

L712MW11_IB_final110506.indd 6 24/05/2011 5:48 PM
Levelling the Washing Machine
There are 4 levelling feet on the underside. They must be adjusted to make sure the washing machine is level.
1. On each stand, loosen the lock nut by turning it clockwise with a spanner.
2. Adjust all four feet in this way.
3. Use a spirit level to ensure the washing machine is level.
4. Tighten each lock nut by turning them anti-clockwise (towards the washing machine body), again using a spanner.
Ensure all four lock nuts are tightened securely. Check the feet are still bolted to the washing machine - if they’re unbolted, the washing machine will move around.
Water Supply Hose
Points to remember
• Follow the instructions in this section to avoid water leaks.
• Don’t connect the hose to a combination tap.
• Don’t twist, squash, modify or cut the hose.
• Optimum water pressure in the water mains pipe is 0.02 MPa - 1.0 MPa. If the water pressure is set
higher than this, you will need to install a depressurising valve. Water-flow from the tap should be more than 5 litres per minute. If you’re unsure, ask a qualified technician to connect the hose.
• This unit must only be connected to cold water mains using the new water inlet hose provided.
Connecting the Water Supply Hose
1. Attach the hose to a tap, and tighten the plastic joint by hand.

Preparation
Read the following to understand how best to prepare your laundry for washing.
Organising Laundry
• Read the washing label on each garment to help you sort your washing into different loads.
• Sort the laundry by colour, type of fabric and by how soiled it is.
This will help you choose the correct programme and temperature for each wash.
• Do not exceed maximum load!
• Be careful not to trap any items of clothing.
Preparing Laundry
• Treat stains before washing.
• Some items should to be put into a cleaning net before going into
the washing machine. i.e. bras with metal wires, tights and lace clothing to prevent damage. Check that pockets do not contain any objects which may damage your clothes and the washing machine.
• Tie up any loose strings on laundry, close zippers and reverse clothing with zips inside out.
• Remove any surplus hair, animal fur, sand, and other materials with a brush before washing.
• If clothes have raised fabric turn them inside out.
• Clothes that are not colour fast should be washed separately.
• Insert your clothes into the washing machine. Close the washing
machine door. Ensure not to trap any items of clothing between the loading door and the rubber seal.
Adding Detergent and Softener
• Add detergent into the appropriate dispenser.
• Apply softener before you start washing to prevent static.
• Apply detergent and softener according to the washing
amount, the soiling level, the water hardness in your area and the manufacturer’s instructions of these products.
Dilute viscous fabric softener and fabric conditioner with water. Prevent blockage of the overflow. Maximum level is 40ml.
• Do not use washing machine when the detergent drawer is removed. It may cause a water leak or it may not work normally.
• If you forget to add detergent, you can drain the washing machine by running a spin only programme. Then you can add detergent and start the programme again. Detergent only reaches the drum when water flushes through the detergent drawer.
• To prevent powered detergent staying in the drawer, dry the inside of the drawer with a cloth. Make sure the powder isn’t lumpy when you add it into the drawer.
• If the rinse cycle isn’t removing all the detergent from your wash, use less detergent.
• Softener should not exceed the MAX level in the compartment.
• Wash out unused softener with a splash of water or a damp cloth after the programme has finished.

Important Information
Washing Delicates (Wool and Delicate Programmes)
These programmes rock the drum gently for best results on delicate laundry.
• Delicate laundry loads: 2kg or less
• Tips for Wool programme:
Approximate Weights:
- Wool sweater (400g)
- Silk blouse / under garment (200g)
- Trousers (400g)
Adding Delicate Laundry Items to the Drum
• Close zips and buttons.
• Add items one by one on top of each other.
• Don’t overload the drum as it may cause excessive vibrations
or damage to the washing machine.
Which Detergent to Use
• For woolen items, use a mild liquid detergent. Other detergents may damage your woolen clothes.
• With Wool or Silk programmes, you may need to use an extra rinse cycle to remove excess detergent
from your clothes. This depends on the amount of detergent you use, and the amount of foam that develops in the main wash cycle.
• To do this, once the programme has finished, select the “Wool” programme using the Programme Dial and press the Start / Pause button to rinse again.
Tips for Hanging Delicate Items to Dry
• Hang white or light coloured clothes, as well as woolen and nylon clothes away from direct heat or sunlight.
• After washing, smooth creases and folds out of woolen and nylon clothes and return them to their normal shape before hanging in the shade.
• Use a hanger for shirts, blouses and trousers. You can wrap a towel around the hanger to fit the shoulder width of your clothes, so they retain their shape as they dry.
• Spread woollen items such as seaters out to dry.
If Clothing Shrinks in the Wash...
• You can spread the item out to its original size on an ironing board, and use dress pins to hold the size and shape. Then use an iron to steam the item and leave it to dry.
L712MW11_IB_final110506.indd 15 24/05/2011 5:49 PM

How to Use Laundry Starch
Laundry starch makes your clothes crisp in texture. Synthetic laundry starch is a stiffening agent.
• To use laundry starch, simply add it to the softener compartment, next to where you add detergent. It will automatically be applied to your clothes as part of the final rinsing cycle.
• If it’s hard to pour, you can dilute the starch slightly with water before adding it to the softener compartment. Make sure you don’t fill the compartment over the MAX level.
After using starch, clean the detergent drawer, especially the softener cover. Then remove any
excess starch in the drum, run a “Quick” programme without detergent.
How to Use a Water Softener
If the water in your area is hard, deposits will form in the drum. To reduce the hardness of the water, you will need to add a water softening agent after the detergent to the main wash compartment. If you use other treatments like a fabric softener or a stain remover, add them to your wash in the following order:
1. Detergent 2. Water Softener 3. Stain remover

Maintenance - Cleaning the Washing Machine
Cleaning the Drum
Rust left inside the drum by metal articles should be removed immediately with chlorine-free detergent. Never use steel wool.
Don’t put laundry in the washing machine during the drum cleaning.
Cleaning the Exterior of your Washing Machine
• Clean the outside of your washing machine with a soft cloth and mild detergent such as kitchen detergent.
• Don’t splash water over the washing machine.
• Do not use cream cleansers, thinners or products containing alcohol or kerosene.
Cleaning the Detergent Drawer
1. Remove the detergent drawer by pulling and pressing the tail part of softener compartment at the same time.
2. Wash out old detergent from the drawer with water. (Use a cloth to clean the washing machine.) Residue detergent soon builds up if you don’t clean the drawer regularly, and can develop mould.
Pull out at the same time
Press
Cleaning the Door Seal and Window
• Wipe the window and seal after each wash to remove lint and stains. If lint builds up, it can cause leaks.
• Remove any coins, buttons and other objects from the door seal after each wash.
L712MW11_IB_final110506.indd 17 24/05/2011 5:49 PM

Cleaning the Drain Filter
Be careful not to burn yourself while handling your clothes or touching the inside of the drum
after a high temperature wash.
Before cleaning the drain filter, first start the spin programme, then switch off and unplug the washing machine.
1. Use a small, flat bladed screwdriver to open the Service Flap.

2. Carefully loosen the drain filter. Turn anti clockwise until the water gentle begins to run, this is normal.
3. Remove the filter once the water has stopped.
4. Remove any lint and debris before carefully replacing the filter.
5. Turn the filter clockwise and screw the filter back.
6. Close the service flap.
Preventing a Frozen Water Supply Hose
If your washing machine is delivered in freezing weather conditions, leave it at room temperature for 24 hours after you’ve set it up before using it. This ensures there’s no ice blocking the water supply hose. If your water supply hose freezes, add 2 or 3 litres of warm water to the drum. Then run a “Drain” only programme.
Cleaning the Filter Net of the Water Supply Hose
1. Turn the water supply off at the tap.
2. Close the washing machine door and select “Drain” programme and press the Start / Pause button.
3. When finished, turn the power off. Loosen the water supply hose and remove it from the tap.
4. Use a small brush, e.g. a toothbrush to clean the filter of the water supply hose.
5. Re-connect the water supply hose to the tap and turn the tap back on, checking for leaks.

Hints and Tips
Problems Solutions
Buttons don’t work • Key lock is activated. Deactivate the key lock function.
• The washing machine is operating a programme.
• The Programme Dial was turned to a different programme.
Door doesn’t open Door lock may be active.
If you start a wrong programme accidentally.
First press Start/Pause button or turn the Programme Dial to “Off”. Secondly turn the Programme Dial to the correct programme, then select the temp, spin speed or optional function you want. Press the Start/Pause button to start the new programme. (Note: We suggest that you do not change the programme after the machine has been running for 3 minutes.)
Unusual odour • Rubber parts may give off a smell when you first start using the
washing machine, but this goes away over time.
• You should wash the drum once a month.
You can’t see any water This is normal: The water level is below the window.
There’s no water going into the washing machine
• The water tap might be turned off.
• The water hose or water-supply hose may be frozen.
• Your water supply may be disrupted.
• The water-supply valve filter may be clogged.
There’s only a small amount of water
• If you have paused the programme and you restart, the washing machine may drain some water.
• Don’t pour water in through the door.
Water adds up during washing
This is normal: water is supplied automatically as the level lowers, and with heavy loads the water may fill up repeatedly.
Water drains away during washing
This is normal: water often drains and refills to wash off excess foam. (This is called foam detection.)
There’s no water going into the washing machine during rinse operation
Before rinsing, the washing machine spins to drain water remaining from the wash. The water will fill up after that.
Rinsing begins before the spinning finishes
• If your laundry has collected to one side of the drum, rinsing will start automatically to correct the imbalance.
• If there’s excess foam after washing, water may drain and refill to wash it off. (This is called foam detection.)
During the spin-dry, the drum stops and rotates several times
This is normal. The washing machine has detected an unbalanced load and is trying to correct it.
Foam and water remain in the door or door seal
Although foam and water may remain, it does not have any influence on the performance of a rinse.
Spin starting is repeated This is normal. Although spin starting may be repeated, it is a function
made to spin quietly.
Wash time too long During washing, if the laundry is unbalanced, the machine will try to
correct by slowly rotating the drum. This may take several attempts. This is normal.

There’s not much foam • This can happen if you’ve put powder detergent directly into the
drum – you must put it in the detergent drawer.
• The amount of foam can vary, depending on the temperature, level and softness of your water.
• You may not be using enough detergent.

Safety Warnings
For your continued safety and to reduce the risk of injury or electric shock, please follow all the safety precautions listed below.
WARNING!
• If you will not be using the washing machine for a while such as when you go on holiday, turn off the water supply to the washing machine. This is particularly important if there is no drainage around the washing machine. If the water supply is left on, water pressure may build up and cause a leak.
General Use
• Do not install your washing machine anywhere that is damp or exposed to the weather. If you do, it may cause an electric shock, fire, failure or deterioration.
• Do not pour water directly onto any part of the washing machine. It may cause a short circuit or electric shock.
• Keep burning objects such as candles or cigarettes, away from the washing machine. They may cause a fire or damage.
• Keep flammable substances well away from the washing machine – for example kerosene, gasoline, benzene, paint thinner and alcohol, or clothing soaked with these. They may cause an explosion or a fire.
• This washing machine is only suitable for washing textiles labelled washing machine washable.
• Anchor bolts are used to transport the washing machine. You should remove these using a spanner or
similar tool before you install the washing machine. If you do not, it will cause strong vibrations when the washing machine is spinning.
• Do not connect the washing machine to hot water. The washing machine works with cold water.
• Before you start using the washing machine, turn the tap on to check that the hose is properly
connected. If it’s not, there may be a water leak.
• Do not apply pesticide, hair spray or deodorant to the washing machine.
• Do not put any electrical equipment near the washing machine – for example a TV, radio or battery

prevent this, unplug the cable and clean the mains plug with a dry rag.
• If you disconnect the mains plug, hold onto the mains plug not the cable. Pulling the cable may cause an electric shock or a fire.
• Do not use a mains plug adaptor or extension cable. It may overheat and cause a fire.
