How to use your washing machine economically and
ecologically.

Optimum load - Always try to use the washing machine at
full load, as this will use less water, powder and energy thant
two smaller loads.

You want to use the pre-wash? - Only the pre-wash for
very dirty linen. If you don’t use the pre-wash, you save from
5% to 15% in energy, washing powder, and time.

Is a high temperature wash required? - To avoid high
temperature washing, treat particularly dirty items with a
stain remover of leava the most stains to soak beforehand.
You will save energy in this way.

RECOMMANDATION FOR THE USER

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

This washing machine does not require any particular maintenance. At the end of each wash
it is recommended to leave the door open so that air will circulate and dry the interior of the
machine. The external part of the machine should never be cleaned with abrasive detergents
since this would ruin the enamel coating as well as the synthetic parts.

Removing and cleaning filter

Place a rag under the washing machine to absorb any residual
water. The filter is located under the base. Turn the filter handle
counterclockwise and pull out the filter. Clean it under running
water. Reinsert the filter and turn the handle clockwise until it is
completely locked. WARNING: Water may leak from the filter if it
is not properly tightened. Remember to clean the filter frequently
to avoid excessive clogging.

POSITIONING

After your washing machine has been placed in the desired
location, level it by means of the front left foot, them the

counternut must be blocked by means of the special key
purposely provided. Warning: if the machine is not perfectly

leveled, it will be unstable, noisy and may lead to
malfunctions and broken parts. Do not place the machine on
mats or carpets.

WATER CONNECTION

Your machine is designed to be connected to both hot and
cold water supplies. Cold water supplied direct from the
water mains or from a storage tank in the loft of the house will
normally be suitable. Most domestic hot water systems are
suitable, i.e.:

1. Hot water storage tank heated by gas, solid fuel boiler or
by electric immersion heater.

2. Multiple outlet gas instantaneous water heated with
external fuel.

NOTE

Single outlet gas or electric water heaters are not suitable
and must not be used. If you are in any doubt contact the
water heater manufacturer or the Gas/Electricity Company.
If your hot water supply is unsuitable then you may connect
both fill hoses to the cold water supply. The machine will take
longer to wash on certain programmes as the water has to be
heated by the machine. Although it’s possible to effect
temporary connections for both waste and water supply, we
recommend that the washing machine is permanently
plumbed in. To do so connect the two water outlet pipes with
their 3/4” BSP female connectors to a suitably threaded tap.
Ensure that there are no kinks in the pipe and try not to drop
or mislay the black rubber washers.

DRAIN:

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe (with a minimum
internal diameter of 4 cm.) or hook it on a sink or bathtub,
without crimping or creating any sharp curves. The hose
should be positioned at a height ranging from a minimum of
70 cm. to a maximum of 100 cm. as shown in the figure.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Each pipe has to be fitted with a plain washer at both ends.
We recommend that the water supply to your washing
machine is switched off after each programme.
Two water inlet supply hoses are packed within the appli­ance. Hot water supply - connection ends coloured red or
hose marked 90/95°C MAX. These must be connected up as
follows: Hot supply hose (red connection end) to the red
threaded mount connection, marked red, on the rear of the
machine.Cold supply hose (blue connection end) to the blue
colour threaded mount connection, marked blue, on the rear
of the machine.

The detergent dispenser is divided into four compartments;

1) Pour washing detergent in this compartment for the prewash cycle (MAX 45gr)

2) This compartment is for the wash cycle (MAX 130 gr powder detergent).
The liquid detergent tank (B) must be used for liquid detergent.

3) Pour bleaching liquid into this compartment following the advice on the packing (do ot
exceed in quantity over the filter grid).

4) Pour softener into this compartment following the advice on the packaging (max 60 ml ­do not exceed in quantity over the filter grid).
Close the dispenser after the detergent compartments have been filled. It is recommended
to use non-foaming detergents and a softener in case of hard water.

N.B.: Always follow guidance given by detergent manufactures for quantities required.

It is advisable to clean the compartment regularly, as explained below:

- press lever (A) ans slide the compartment out of its housing;

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Make sure that the electrical system can support the maximum current as indicated on the
rating plate located on the rear side of the machine. The washing machine should be
connected to an electrical outlet with ground, as prescribed by law. This outlet must be

easily accessible after the, installation of the washing machine. If the supply cord is
damaged, it should be replaced by a special cable available at the manufacturers or at
the technical service. Therefore, the company will not be responsible for any damage to

persons or things due to non-compliance with these instructions.
