1. THE NEW W ASHING SYSTEM
This new washer dryer is the outcome of years of research. The leading-edge design and the quality of the production processes used to manu­facture this product ensure it will give you many years of excellent service.
Its concept satisfies all current and future washing and drying requirements.
Its low water, pow er and detergent consumption help protect the environment and reduce running costs to a minimum.
Water and pow er consumption has been reduced in all programmes.
These results were achieved by means of a special washing system valid for all programmes and all fabrics. The drum is fitted with three external vanes that keep the water constantly circulating, thereby offering intensive and uniform washing whilst consuming less water. This ensures your laundry is washed and treated with utmost care.
The new washing system is so effective that normally dirty laundr y can even be cleaned without a pre-wash cycle.
Washing times have also been reduced. Pre-washing is only recommended for very dirty laundry.
Please read the operating instructions with care in order to take full advantage of all the features offered by this washer dryer.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important !
The appliance must be installed by a specialised technician according to curren t regulation s. This washer dryer is very heavy. Take care when lifting it.
3.1 UNPACKING
The inside of the machine c omprises a moving assembly which is blocked f or transport purposes by t he screws (A) located at the rear of the washer dryer.
1. Release the assembly by removing these screws with a 13 mm wrench.
2. Remove the screws (A) and relative spacers (B) from the back of the washer dry er.
3. To prevent water from entering the machine, or people f rom touching live c omponents with their f ingers,
close the four holes left open by the screws with the supplied plastic plugs (C).
GB
Attention!
Do not turn the machine upside down and do not place it on its side.
Keep all the components used to lock the drum as sembly as they will be needed if you decide to move the
appliance in future.
3.2 POSITIONING AND LEV ELLING
1. Place the appliance in the chosen position.
2. Carefully lev el the machine in all directions using a spirit
lev el and adjus ting the f eet if necessary. After adjusting the
machine, lock the feet with the relative lock nuts.
The water inlet and drain hoses can be turned to the right or left depending on installation requirements.
Attention!
Carry out this operation carefully to prevent the washer dryer from vibrating, generating noise or mov­ing during operation.
If the appliance is installed adjacent to a carpeted floor, ensure that the openings on its underside are not obstructed.
Make sure the washer dry er does not touch walls, furniture, etc., while it is working.

3.3 ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Carefully read the installation instructions in point 3 on page 6 of the washer dryer installation manual.
2. After the initial instructions have been adhered to. I.e. removing transit bolts and fitting the adjustable feet etc. Using a spirit level, make sure that the washer dryer is completely lev el and the overall height of the legs, in-
cluding the rubber foot and the locking nuts, is no greater than 25mm maximum.
3. When installing the washer dry er y ou must ensure that the leg locking nuts are firmly tightened.
Under no circumstances should the washer dry er be installed with the front legs higher than the rear. If atten­tion is required in lev elling the f urniture door then we would adv ise fitting the “push-push” catch and the rub-
ber f urniture door buffer. It is important to not e that any other installation other than one of a lev el nat ure could induce v ibration or excessiv e movem ent of the washer dry er, especially on the spin cycle.
4. The machine should be installed directly onto a c lean, sound and level f loor, and as low as poss ible. Please note this machine should not be inst alled on carpets, foam-backed f looring, laminate and parquet floors. If,
however, f or cosmetic purposes the machine height needs to be raised, it must not be done so by raising the height of the legs, but via an additional baseboard.
As a manufacture we do not recommend or specify any particular means by which to raise the washer dryer, but have found that dense board, between 18mm and 40mm in thickness, grip-fixed and screwed to the f loor and capable of supporting the weight of the washer dryer without distortion, and cut to the dimensions of the
machine base appears to be good installation practice. Please note that any material that has a shiny or a slippery f inis h should not be used.
5. Floating floors. As more apartments are being built with f loating floors, additional care must be taken when in­stalling the washer dryers. The current flooring specif ications st ate that additional bracing must be installed in areas directly below electric storage heaters and door thresholds. It is important to note that whilst some elec-
tric storage heaters have a weight of 80kgs, washer dry ers , when loaded, hav e a combined weight in excess of 90kgs and the oscillating nature of any loaded washer dry er will deliv er v ary ing stresses and loadings on to the adjacent floor area.
Howev er bec ause floating flooring manuf acturers current specific ations do not state that additional bracing is required in the f loor area below heavy domestic appliances the f looring area below washer dryers is generally only supported in one direction and not two as is the case with electric storage heaters. Theref ore in order to
prov ide t he house purchaser with additional peace of mind, and to prevent any unnecessary v ibration and os­cillation in the kitchen area we would advise hous e builders to consider f itting additional f loor brac ing at the time of floor installation to a similar specification to that which is required f or the installation of electric storage
heaters.
6. The ideal base surface f or any heavy domest ic appliance to stand on is one of solid concrete, as any m inor leak from the domestic water supply will not adv ersely eff ect the area adjacent to the washer dryer, as any
leak onto a floating and/or wood laminate floor could cause extens ive water damage. Please note that as these machines are water t ested prior to leav ing our f actory a small amount of residual water will be present in the hoses, theref ore care must be taken to prevent any minor water spillage during in-
stallation. Please also ens ure that t he water f eed hose are c orrectly fitted and tightened, bot h at the m ains and the machine connectors.
7. Please ensure that installation is carried out in accordance to the above installation instructions. As failure to do so could invalidate the guarantee.
3.4 WAT ER SUPPLY CONNECTION
1. Check that inlet pressure lies between the f ollowing v alues: 50-900kPa. For higher pressures, install a pressure reducer.
2. Connect the cold water inlet hose (light blue ring nut) to the cold water tap with a ¾ gas thread, taking care to screw it firmly into place in order to prevent leaks. The water
inlet hose must not be bent or crushed and must not be replaced or cut.
3. If the model is designed f or operation with hot water, then the inlet water temperature must not exceed 60°C and the hose with the red ring nut must be connected to the hot
water tap.
Attention!
If the water pipe is new or has not been used f or a long time, let a certain amount of water run bef ore attach- ing the inlet hose. This stops any deposits of sand and ot her impurities from clogging the f ilters used by the
machine to protect the water inlet v alves.
GB

GB
3.5 DRAIN CONNECTION
1. Insert the end of the drain hose into a drain pipe hav ing an internal diameter of at least 4 cm and a height ranging between 50 and 90 cm, or attac h it (using the relative curv ed plastic prof ile) to a basin or bath tub.
2. Always check that the end of t he drain hose is securely attached in order to prevent the repulsive f orce of the water f rom moving it out of position.
Attention!
Do not bend or obstruct the hose as this will reduce the f low of water.
Any ex tensions to the drain hose must not exceed 1 metre, they m ust have the same internal diameter and
must not be obstructed in any way.
In no circumstances should the end of t he drain hose be submerged in water.
3.6 ELECTRICAL C ONNECTION
Before fitting the plug into the socket, make sure that:
1. Input voltage matches that indicated on the name plate attached to the inner edge of the door.
2. The circuit-breaker, pressure relief v alves, power line and socket are capable of withstanding the maxi-
mum rated power input indicated on the name plate.
3. The socket is compatible with the plug supplied with the machine without the need to f it multiple sockets,
adaptors or extension leads that could cause ov erheating or burning.
Attention
The plug must be accessible aft er installation.
The appliance must be earthed. Plug the mac hine into a socket f itted with an eff icient earth connection.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property resulting from failure to earth the appliance or from a defective earth connection. Correct electrical connec-
tions gua rantee maximum safety.

3.7.2 Use of the furniture door fixing template
Proceed in the following way when applying the wooden panel to the washing dryer:
GB
1. When fitting the f urnit ure door utilising the door template y ou will need t o make sure that the bottom and
the top of the f urniture door will line up with the adjacent cabinet furniture doors.
2. The final positioning of the furniture door hinges will be dictated to by t he height or the plinth plus any ad-
ditional base-board used in conjunction with raising the height of the washer dryer for cosmetic purposes
3. Calculate the height of the plinth.
4. There are two holes “A” in the upper part of the template. These will hav e been perforat ed and are used
to mark the holes that will subsequently house the upper hinge and the insert for the closing hook. The small central hole “B” is used to mark the position of the met al plate f ixing hole when f itting the magnetic catch.
5. Remov e the f our pieces of protective f ilm from self-adhes ive areas “C” of the template
6. Position the template on the inside of the f urniture door taking in to consideration point one above.
7. Ensure that you have placed the template in the correct position making sure that it is vertically and hori-
zontally correct with reference to the guides on the template and mark the positions of the holes with a pencil.
8. After hav ing set the template in its correct position and af ter hav ing also checked that is centered in a
horizontal direction with reference to the lines marked at the ends, mark the positions of the holes using the tip of a pencil.
3.7.3 Fitting the hinge components to the furniture door
1. Drill holes in the furniture door f or the hinges, the door buff er and the closing hook, using a pedestal
mounted drill and a suitable 35mm f urniture drill bit, drill 4 number 13mm deep holes into the f urniture door (Care must be taken not to exceed 13mm or the door f ascia could be damaged). Pleas e note that if
the magnetic door catch is required then a small pilot hole is all that is needed
2. On the hinge side of the f urniture door drill four number 2mm x 13mm deep holes f or t he hinge fixing
screws (Care must be taken not to exceed 13mm or the door fascia could be damaged)
3. Screw the two hinges “A” into the f urniture door, according to whether the furniture door is left or right-
hand hinged.
10
4. On the opposite side of the f urniture door either insert closing hook “B” or screw in metal plate “C” into
the upper side opposite the hinges. Then insert the door buff er ”D” into the remaining position opposite the lower hinge
5. Following this operation the f urniture door will be ready to be f itted onto the washer dryer using the 2
screws “A” supplied.
3.7.4 Ad justing the hinges
GB
If the furniture door needs final adjustment the screws “A” can be slackened and the door lev elled. Once levelled
re-tighten the screws
3.7.5 Recessing the appliance
Push the washing machine into its recess. Turn the f eet to horizontally, level the m achine if necessary and lock the counter nut with the relative check nut. To prev ent vibrations from the machine from being transm itted to the surrounding furniture, check that the sides and top of t he appliance are unable to touch the f urniture itself. Ther e
must be a space of at least 2mm all around. The rear part of the machine must also remain some distance away from the back wall. If the recessing cav ity is higher than 820mm the opening between the f loor and sides of the machine (when this is installed at the end of a line of furniture), must be completely closed in com pliance with
the relative safety prov isions. The cov ering must make it impossible for users to touch live parts of the electrical system and must require tools in order to be remov ed.
Our company declines all responsibility f or damages caus ed by f ailuresto comply with these safety provisions.
3.7.6 Fitting the plinth
The base plinth f or kitchen f urniture must be removable in the area in front of the washer dry er to allow access for routine maintenance of the drain pump if it becom es clogged with buttons, fasteners, or similar objects, and for our engineers to be able to remove the washer dry er f or service.
Please note: our engineers will not remove plinths that have been f ixed into position by glues or mastics, or where removal could cause third-party damage.
If a plinth is fitted directly onto the washer dry er t hen it must be done so with four screws inserted into the four pre-set holes
Application of the plinth to the fu rnitur e must not involve elimination or modification o f the washing machine plinth. Owing to safety reasons, this may not be removed. It must absolutely remain intact and
fixed to the washing machine.

Attention!
Do not wash unhemmed or torn garments as they may fray.
Foreign bodies may damage garments or machine components. Theref ore, empty all pockets and turn them
inside out, remov e rings and hooks f rom curtains or put them in a string bag.
Put very sm all articles (belts, handkerchiefs, socks, bras with stiffeners, etc.) into a white canv as bag. Clos e push buttons and zips and sew on loose buttons.
Modern detergents and correct washing temperatures are generally sufficient to remov e stains f rom fabrics. Howev er, some s tubborn stains, such as grass, f ruit, egg, blood, rust and ink, should be pre-treated bef ore
washing. Depending on the type of fabric, many stain removers can be found in the shops. Stains
should always be cleaned or diluted immediately as the older they g et, the more diffi cult they are to remove.
Garments may be damaged if fabric care symbols are not observed.

Wool – Only pure wool, identif ied by or with the label <<shrink-proof machine washable and dryable>> can
be machine washed with the specif ic programme, other ty pes of wool should be hand-washed or dry -cleaned.
5.2 OPENI NG THE DOOR
The machine is fitted with a saf ety dev ic e that prev ents the door from opening while it is working.
1. Before opening the door, wait 1 or 2 minutes after the programme ends (“End” LED on) to allow the safety device to disengage.
2. Make sure there is no water in th e tub and that the drum is not moving. Open the door by pressing the “Open door” button on the f ront panel and pulling it open.
Attention!
If the washing programme is interrupted, you will have to wait f rom 3 to 15 minutes, depending on the tem- perature of the water, bef ore the door opens.
Attention!
The water may still be boiling if the washing cycle was performed at high temperatures. If there is still water inside the drum, do not open the door!

5.3 PREPARING THE WASHING
Where possible, save electricity by washing full loads divided by type of fabric. Int roduce loose washing and alternate large items with small ones. For the first f ew times, weigh the wash loads and t hen rely on y our judge-
ment. Av erage weights of comm on garments are shown below:
5.4 LOADING THE WASHI NG
1. Open the door and load the washing tak ing care to distribute it unif ormly, loosely and not packed into the
drum; alternate large items with small ones if poss ible.
2. The washer dry er described in this manual can be loaded with up to 5kg of washing. Heavier loads will
lead to unsatisf ac tory washing results and may cause the machine to work incorrectly.
3. To save energy, wash fu ll loads div ided by type of fabric, according to the quantities indic ated in the
“Programmes chart” supplied with this manual.
4. Close the door by pressing it against the body of the appliance until y ou hear a click. Make sure no gar-
ments hav e got caught between the door and the rubber gasket.
Attention!
If the door is not closed properly, a safety dev ice prevents the washer dry er f rom working.
Do not use more than the recommended amount of detergent: too much may deteriorate washing re-
sults.
5.5 ADDING DET ERGENT AND ADDITIV ES
If bleach can be used with the machine (no cov er marked with The level of the liquids must not exceed the maximum limit, otherwise the trays will be emptied too soon.
Bef ore pouring thick additiv es into the tray, dilute them with a little water to prev ent them f rom obstructing the trap.
Only use f oam-c ontrolled detergent suitable for use in washer dryers.
Determine the quantity of detergent according to the hardness of the water, and the type, quantity and dirtiness of the washing.
This will allow y ou to obtain the required effect using as little detergent as possible.
Detergent packs indicate the quantities to use according to 4 lev els of hardness and f or normally dirty loads of 4-5 kg.
Ask your local water board to tell you how hard your water is.
Water hardness
Hardness level French degree fH German degree dH
Soft Up to 15° Up to 8°
Moderately hard 15° - 25° 8° - 14°
Hard 25° - 40° 14° - 22°
Ve ry hard Over 40° Over 22°
Follow the instructions shown in the “Programme Chart” provided to­gether with the manual and add detergent and any additives to the relative compartment before s tarting t he programme.
Pour the pre-wash powder detergent into the c ompartment m arked “1”.
Pour main wash detergent into compartment “2”. Machine accessories include a red insert “A” that can be placed inside compartm ent “2” to allow liquid detergent to be used. The addit iv es are automatically in-
troduced into the tub during f inal rinsing. Pour liquid additives such as starch and f abric softener into “3”,
marked with

5.6 DOSING POWDER DET ERGENT S
Normally dirty washing
1. Choose a programme without prewash.
2. Pour the total quantity of detergent indicated on the packs into compartment “2” of the detergent tray.
Very dirty washing
1. Choose a programme with prewash.
2. Add ¼ of the recommended quantity of detergent into compartment “1” of the detergent tray and ¾ of the de­tergent into compartm ent “2”.
Attention!
If there are no dosage indications for delicate synthetics, add from ½ to 2/3 of t he recommended quantity for resistant cottons.
For the wool programme, only use neutral detergents f or woollens.
Base your doses according to the detergent manuf acturer's recommendations.
5.7 DOSING LIQUID DETERGENTS
1. Pour the recommended dose into the batcher supplied with the liquid detergent and place it inside the drum; otherwise, pour it into compartment “2” of the det ergent tray after f itt ing the relative red insert “A” (see para- graph 5.5).
2. The scale on the red insert will help you to use the right quantity of liquid detergent.
Attention!
Liquid detergents can be used according to the manufacturer's recomm ended dose only for the main wash­ing cycle, that is, in all programmes without prewash.
When compartment “2” is used for powder detergent, the red insert “A” must be remov ed.
5.8 SCAL E-REMOVERS
Scale-remov ers can be introduced into compartments “1” and “2” according to the manufacturer's indications. First, add the detergent and then the scale-rem over.
5.9 SWITCHING ON THE MACHINE AND SELECTING THE WASHING PROGRAMME
To switch on the machine and select programmes, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the programme knob in either direction.
2. Select the washing temperature, within the sectors marked on the front panel by the following words:

env is aged for the programme. These two parameters are displayed alternatively for 3 seconds each, toget her with their relative LED's, until the selected programme starts.
Attention!
The following partial washing programmes can be set using the programmes knob:
-Rinse with additive
-Drain and spin
-Fabric softener These partial programmes are inside the Cotton, Synt hetics and Wool sectors, except f or the drain and spin
programme (Drain
)
.
If the indicated tem perature shows 0°, this means that the programm e perf orms a cold wash cycle. The same cold wash is also performed by the Hand wash programme in the Wool sector.
The fabric treatment labels show which washing temperature must be set.
If various garments in the same load require different washing temperatures, choose the lowest wash-
ing temperature of all.
If the laundry is only slightly dirty and does not need the bleaching effect of high temperatures, a lower tem­perature can be chosen to save power. In spite of t he low temperature and c onsequent sav ing of electric-
ity, an automatic time control keeps t he duration of the main washing unv aried compared with that of a high temperature programme. It is therefore possible to successfully wash normally dirty laundry at lower wash-
ing temperatures than the maximum temperatures s hown on the fabric care labels.

6. DRYING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 GENERAL
The washing is dried by means of a continuous f low of hot air produced by a fan which passes through the drum and removes humidity from the washing.
This humidity is then condensed inside the machine when it comes into contact with the cold water.
For this reason, the water tap must be left open and the drain hose must be correctly positioned during drying cycles.
This machine allows wash-only, dry -only and wash+dry programmes to be set. In the latter programmes, the cycle shifts automatically from washing to dry ing without having to touch the controls
to continue the cycle after washing.
Warnings
Only dry linen or garments washed in a water-based solut ion and suitable f or tumble drying.
Do not dry f abrics that hav e been dry -cleaned or stain-removed with chemical solv ents, woollens or
blended woollens that shrink with heat, very delicate f abrics such as silk and synthetic net curtains, f ab­rics that can easily fray s uch as loose wool, padding and excessively f rayed carpets, articles containing f oam rubber or similar elastomers.
The quantity of washing that can be introduced into the washer dr yer for drying must not exceed
2.5kg. This washer dry er has been built to offer maximum performance with dry loads weighing not more
than 2.5 kg.
When intensiv e washing programmes are set, drying is automatically perform ed at 90°C, while dry ing times may vary f rom 20 to 120 minutes.
For delicate programmes, dry ing is automat ically performed at 60°C, again with dry ing t imes v arying from 20 to 120 minutes.
22
For automatic wash+dry programmes, theref ore, the dry ing temperature depends on which washing pro- gramme is selected.
The washing must hav e been prev iously washed and spun bef ore a dry -only programme can be per­f orm ed.
When drying particularly f luf fy items suc h as new terry towels, the "Rinse" program should be carried out to ensure that any deposits left by the f abric are removed, and are not deposited on the clothes in the
