Installation

 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. Remove the 4 protective screws (used during transportation) and the rubber washer with the corresponding spacer, located 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.

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

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

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

2. Connect the inlet hose to the washer dryer by screwing it onto the corresponding water inlet of the appliance, which is situated on the top righthand side of the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

 Packaging materials should not be used as toys for

children.

Levelling

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 perfectly level, compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured in relation to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.

 The water pressure at the tap must fall within the

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

 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

Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a drainage duct or a wall drain located at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

 Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

 The cable should not be bent or compressed.

 The power supply cable must only be replaced by

authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible in the event that these regulations are not respected.

The first wash cycle

alternatively, rest it on the side of a washbasin or bathtub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). The free end of the hose should not be underwater.

 We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is

absolutely necessary, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity socket, make sure that:

 the socket is earthed and complies with all

applicable laws;

 the socket is able to withstand the maximum power

load of the appliance as indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

 the power supply voltage falls within the values

indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);

 the socket is compatible with the plug of the

washer dryer. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

 The washer dryer must not be installed outdoors,

even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain, storms and other weather conditions.

 When the washer dryer has been installed, the

electricity socket must be within easy reach.

Instructions for the fitter

Mounting the wooden panel onto the door and inserting the machine into cabinets:

In the case where the machine must be shipped for final installation after the wooden panel has been mounted, we suggest leaving it in its original packaging. The packaging was designed to make it possible to mount the wooden panel onto the machine without removing it completely

(see figures below).

The wooden panel that covers the face of the machine must not be less than 18 mm in thickness and can be hinged on either the right or left. For the sake of practicality when using the machine, we recommend that the panel be hinged on the same side as the door for the machine itself - the left.

- No. 4 type C metric screws, l =15 mm; for mounting the hinge supports to the cabinet.

- No. 4 type D metric screws, l =7 mm; for mounting the hinges on the supports.

Mounting the Parts onto the Face of the Machine.

- Fit the hinge supports to the appliance front panel, positioning the hole marked with an arrow in fig. 1 so that it is on the inner side of the front panel. Fit a spacer (fig. 4/B) between the surfaces using type C screws.

- Fit the magnet plate at the top of the opposite side, using type B screws to fix two spacers (fig. 4/B) between the plate and the surface.

Using the Drilling Template.

- To trace the positions of the holes on the left-hand side of the panel, align the drilling template to the top left side of the panel using the lines traced on the extremities as a reference.

- To trace the positions of the holes on the right-hand side of the panel, align the drilling template to the top right side of the panel.

- Use an appropriately sized router to mill the holes for the two hinges, the rubber plug and the magnet.

Fig. 8 Fig. 9

Mounding the Parts onto the Wooden Panel (Door).

- Insert the hinges into the holes (the movable part of the hinge must be positioned facing away from the panel) and fasten them with the 4 type A screws.

- Insert the magnet into the top hole on the opposite side of the hinges and fasten it with the two type B screws.

- Insert the rubber plug into the bottom hole. The panel is now ready to be mounted onto the machine.

Mounting the Panel into the machine.

Insert the nib of the hinge (indicated by the arrow in fig. 2) into the hole for the hinge and push the panel towards the front of the machine. Fasten the two hinges with the type D screws.

Fastening the plinth guide.

If the machine is installed at the end of a set of modular cabinets, mount either one or both of the guides for the base molding (as shown in fig. 8). Adjust them for depth based on the position of the base molding, and, if necessary, fasten the base to the guides (fig. 9). This is how to assemble the plinth guide (fig. 8): Fasten angle P using screw R, insert plinth guide Q into the special slot and once it is in the desired position, lock it in place using angle P and screw R.

Inserting the machine into the Cabinet.

- Push the machine into the opening, aligning it with the cabinets (fig. 6).

- Regulate the adjustable feet to raise the machine to the appropriate height.

- To adjust the position of the wooden panel in both the vertical and horizontal directions, use the C and D screws, as shown in fig. 7.

Important: close the lower part of the appliance front by ensuring that the plinth rests against the floor.

Accessories provided for the height adjustment.

The following can be found inside the polystyrene lid (fig. 10): 2 crossbars (G), 1 strip (M)

the following can be found inside the appliance drum: 4 additional feet (H), 4 screws (I), 4 screws (R), 4 nuts (L), 2 plinth guides (Q)

Fig. 10

Adjusting the appliance height.

The height of the appliance can be adjusted (from 815 mm to 835 mm), by turning the 4 feet. Should you require the appliance to be placed higher than the above height, you need to use the following accessories to raise it to up to 870 mm: the two crossbars (G); the 4 feet (H); the 4 screws (I); the 4 nuts (L) then perform the following operations (fig. 11): remove the 4 original feet, place a crossbar G at the front of the appliance, fastening it in place using screws I (screwing them in where the original feet were) then insert the new feet H. Repeat the same operation at the back of the appliance. Now adjust feet H to raise or lower the appliance from 835 mm to 870 mm. Once you have reached the desired height, lock nuts L onto crossbar G. To adjust the appliance to a height between 870 mm and 900 mm, you need to mount strip M, adjusting feet H to the required height. Insert the strip as follows: loosen the three screws N situated at the front of the Top cover of the appliance, insert strip M as shown in fig. 12, then fasten screws N.

. Wool: Scholtès is the only washer dryer manufacturer to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by the Woolmark Company, which means that all woollen garments may be washed in the washer dryer, even those which state hand wash only on the label. Wash cycle therefore offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen garments in the washer dryer (max. load 1.5 kg) and guarantees optimal performance.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washer dryer performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

 Never force the porthole door. This could damage

the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening.

 If the appliance breaks down, do not under any

circumstances access the internal mechanisms in an attempt to repair it yourself.

 Always keep children well away from the appliance

while it is operating.  The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

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 laundry into the washer dryer, make

sure the drum is empty.  During the drying phase, the door tends to get

quite hot.

recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. 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.

Opening the porthole door manually

In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the laundry, proceed as follows:

1. remove the plug from the electrical socket.

2. make sure the water level inside the machine is lower than the door opening; if it is not, remove excess water using the drain hose, collecting it in a bucket.

3. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull downwards and open the door at the same time.

 Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have

been washed with flammable solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene).

 Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or

similar elastomers.

 Make sure that the water tap is turned on during

the drying cycles.

Disposal

 Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.  The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, 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

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and electricity supplies

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.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

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

To access the pre-chamber:

1. unscrew the lid by rotating it anti-clockwise (see figure): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;

2. clean the inside thoroughly;

3. screw the lid back on;

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.

Caring for the door and drum of your appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washer dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and

unplug the appliance.

Troubleshooting

Your washer dryer could fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see Assistance), make sure that the problem cannot be not solved easily using the following list.

Problem:

The washer dryer does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The washer dryer does not take in water (the text "NO WATER, CHECK SUPPLY" appears on the display).

The washer dryer continuously takes in and drains water.

Possible causes / Solutions:

 The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact.  There is no power in the house.

 The washer dryer door is not closed properly.  The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.  The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.  The water tap has not been opened.  A delayed start has been set (see How to run a wash cycle or a drying cycle).

 The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.  The hose is bent.  The water tap has not been opened.  There is no water supply in the house.  The pressure is too low.  The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

 The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from

the floor (see Installation).  The free end of the hose is under water (see Installation).  The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe. If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage, causing the washer dryer to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti-draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.

The washer dryer does not drain or spin.

The washer dryer vibrates a lot during the spin cycle.

The washer dryer leaks.

The machine is locked and the display flashes, indicating an error code (e.g. F-01, F-..).

There is too much foam.

The washer-dryer does not dry.

 The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require the

drain phase to be started manually (see Wash cycles and functions).  The EASY IRON function has been activated: To complete the wash

cycle, press the START/PAUSE button (see Wash cycles and functions).  The drain hose is bent (see Installation).  The drainage duct is clogged.

 The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see Installation).  The washer dryer is not level (see Installation).  The washer dryer is trapped between cabinets and walls (see Installation).

 The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see Installation).  The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see Care

and maintenance).  The drain hose is not fixed properly (see Installation).

 Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute

and then switch it back on again.

If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.  The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the

text for washer dryers or hand and machine wash, or the like).  Too much detergent was used.

 The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to make contact.  There has been a power failure.  The appliance door is not shut properly.  A delayed start has been set.  DRYING is in the OFF position.

Service

Before calling for Assistance:

 Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see Troubleshooting);  Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;  If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre using the telephone number

provided on the guarantee certificate.

 Always request the assistance of authorised technicians.

Have the following information to hand:

 the type of problem;  the appliance model (Mod.);  the serial number (S/N). This information can be found on the data plate applied to the rear of the washer dryer, and can also be found on the front of the appliance by opening the door.

Installation

 Conserver ce mode demploi pour pouvoir le

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

 Lire attentivement les instructions: elles fournissent

des conseils importants sur linstallation, lutilisation et la sécurité de lappareil.

Déballage et mise à niveau

Déballage

1. Déballer le lavante-séchante.

2. Contrôler que le lavante-séchante na pas été endommagé pendant le transport. Sil est abîmé, ne pas le raccorder et contacter le vendeur.

3. Enlever les 4 vis de protection servant au transport, le caoutchouc et la cale, placés dans la partie arrière (voir figure).

Une bonne mise à niveau garantit la stabilité de lappareil 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, régler les pieds de manière à ce quil y ait suffisamment despace pour assurer une bonne ventilation.

Raccordements eau et électricité

Raccordement du tuyau darrivée de leau

1. Monter le joint A sur lextrémité du tuyau dalimentation et le visser à un robinet deau froide

à embout fileté 3/4 gaz

(voir figure).

Faire couler leau jusquà ce quelle soit limpide et sans impuretés avant de raccorder.

2. Raccorder le tuyau darrivée de leau au lavante-séchante en le vissant à la prise deau prévue, dans la partie arrière en haut à droite (voir figure).

4. Boucher les trous à laide des bouchons plastique fournis.

5. Conserver toutes ces pièces: il faudra les remonter en cas de transport du lavante-séchante.

 Les pièces demballage ne sont pas des jouets pour

enfants.

Mise à niveau

1. Installer le lavante-séchante sur un sol plat et rigide, sans lappuyer contre des murs, des meubles ou autre.

2. Si le sol nest pas parfaitement horizontal, visser ou dévisser les pieds de réglage avant (voir figure) pour niveler lappareil; son angle dinclinaison, mesuré sur le plan de travail, ne doit pas dépasser 2°.

3. Attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit pas plié ou écrasé.

 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,

sadresser à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien agréé.

 Nutiliser que des tuyaux neufs.

 Utiliser ceux qui sont fournis avec lappareil.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange

Raccorder le tuyau dévacuation, sans le plier, à un conduit dévacuation ou à une évacuation murale placés

65 - 100 cm

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

 Nutiliser ni rallonges ni prises multiples.

 Le câble ne doit être ni plié ni trop 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

ou bien laccrocher à un évier ou à une baignoire, dans ce cas, fixer 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.

 Lutilisation dun tuyau de rallonge est absolument

déconseillée mais si on ne peut faire autrement, il faut absolument quil ait le même diamètre que le tuyau original et sa longueur ne doit pas dépasser 150 cm.

Branchement électrique

Avant de brancher la fiche dans la prise de courant, sassurer que:

 la prise est bien reliée à la terre et est conforme aux

réglementations en vigueur;

 la prise est bien apte à supporter la puissance

maximale de lappareil indiquée dans le tableau des Caractéristiques 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 lavan-

te-séchante. Autrement, remplacer la prise ou la fiche.
