in a net or bag.

Make sure that all pockets are empty. Hard,
sharp objects such as coins, safety pins, nails,
screws or stones may occur extensive damage.

Do not machine wash fabrics which are
saturated with petroleum products. If volatile
cleaning fluids have been used, make sure
that they are thoroughly removed from the
fabrics before loading them in the drum.

Small and delicate objects (e.g. baby socks,
stockings) can be easily washed inside a small
pillowcase with a zip fastener or in larger
socks.

Use only the recommended quantities of fabric
conditioner.

Before cleaning, care and maintenance, ensure
that the machine is unplugged.

Safeties

Lid : your washing machine is equipped with
a safety avoiding the switching of the appliance
when the flapdoors of the drum are opened ;
the closure of the lid is so impossible. An
electromechanic safety prohibits the opening
of the lid when the washing machine works and
2 minutes after the end of the programme.

Washing motor : in case of mechanic
overloading, overvoltage, a thermic safety
protects automatically the motor.

Heating : the heating can only begin when
the water quantity necessary for the washing
is in the tub. This safety is useful when there is
a water break-up or if you forget to open the
water inlet hose.

Anti-balanced system : This safety allows to
the appliance to keep a perfect stability during
the intermediary spinnings and during the final
spinning. If you notice that your laundry is not
spun enough, the anti-balanced system has
then detected a bad distribution of the laundry
during the final spinning ; so it is adviced to
achieve a new spinning taking care to unpack
handly the laundry before.

Environmental information

All materials marked by the symbol are
biodegradable. They can be disposed of without
danger or burnt in rubbish incinerators.

In order to save water and energy and to act in an
environmentally conscious manner, we advice
you to follow the below instructions :

Use if possible the appliance with full loads

instead of partial loads. Take care to not
overload the drum.

Use only the programmes with prewash for very
soiled laundry.

Savings on detergent and for the environment

may also be achieved if with medium to hard
water you add sufficient detergent for soft water
and then add separately a softener. This relieves
our waters of a certain amount of chemicals.

When disposing of the machine in a proper
manner, destroy the door lock and cut off the
power supply cord.

Anti-foam system: water consumption is
very low, due to the electronic spin cycle with
an intermediate spin after the main wash and
three rinse cycles for white and colour programs.
The spin cycle remains under the control of the
foam detection system after the wash cycle has
finished. If necessary, the spin cycle will stop
until all foam is removed.

The self positioning system: this electronic

system ensures the doors to be in the high
position when the wash programme is finished.

HINTS AND TIPS

W ashing hints

You are advised not to leave your laundry too long,
especially when damp. Damp laundry produces
moult and unpleasant smells.
Moult stains cannot be removed.

Sort your laundry.

Study carefully the chart in this booklet explaining
the symbols used on clothes labels
The following points are particularly important :

- a line under the bowl means that the garment
cannot be washed using programmes for resistant
fabrics such as cotton and linen;

- do not mix coloured garments with whites;

- anticrease materials like polyester/cotton should
be treated as synthetics;

- non-resistant fabrics like acrylic and most curtain
materials should be treated as delicate fabrics;

- the wool programme is designed specifically for
pure new wool. Other types of wool and wool
mixtures may shrink or felt if machine-washed.
Woollen garments should be spun briefly
immediately after washing.

Prewash

Prewash is not normally necessary. Your new
washing machine combined with modern
detergents will give perfect washing results without
prewash, thus saving energy, time, water and
detergent.
However, when the laundry is particularly dirty (for
example if you have to wash mechanics' overalls
or butchers' aprons), you are advised to use
prewash with a biological detergent.

Temperatures

We suggest that white cotton and linen, if it is not
excessively soiled, can be washed at 60° instead
of 90°C. There should be no reduction in perfor­mance, but there will be an energy saving of
approximately 30%.
The same applies to a lesser extent to fast coloured
garments.
They usually require a temperature of 60°C but if
they are not excessively dirty, you will have
satisfactory results at 40°C.
Garments with non-fast colours should not be
washed at temperatures above 40°C. If fast and
non-fast colours are washed together, they should
be treated as non-fast colours and therefore the
temperature should not exceed 40°C.

(see page 14).

Resistant white and coloured synthetics can
normally be washed at 60°C but also in this case
40°C is sufficient if the laundry is not excessively
dirty.
Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast
colours and woollen garments must never be
washed above 40°C.
As you already know, your washing machine can
also wash with cold water. However, it must be
remembered that the detergents currently on the
market have not been designed for cold washes
and that in winter, when the water is very cold,
they may not dissolve adequately.
We suggest the use of liquid detergents.

How muc h laundry can be washed in
one load?

Strictly speaking you should always weigh your
laundry.
The drum will take a maximum of 5 kg of cotton
and linen. For synthetics and delicate fabrics, the
maximum load is 2,5 kg and for wool, 1 kg.

As weighing can be complicated, we suggest you
estimate the weight according to how full the drum
is:

cotton and linen : drum full not too tighty packed
resistant synthetics : no more than 2/3 of the

drum
delicate fabrics and wool : no more than 1/2 of
the drum.

Before placing the laundry in the
machine:

- mend all tears, holes and ladders;

- secure loose buttons and close poppers and
zips;

- do not wash frayed garments - mend hems
before washing;

- remove all small objects from pockets. Nails,
pins, clips and similar objects can seriously damage
your washing machine and laundry;

- remove curtain hooks;

- wash coloured garments and in particular those
with non-fast colours separately when washing for
the first time. They are likely to lose colour the first
time they are washed.

- treat obstinate stains such as grass, rust, tar,
paint, ink etc. with a stain remover before washing.

31

To remove paint stains, for example, use a volatile
substance such as turpentine: in this case, you
should wait for it to dry completely before washing.
The manufacturer of your washing machine is not
responsible for any damage deriving from the use
of volatile, inflammable or toxic substances.

At the end of the washing

Damp laundry should be dried as soon as possible
after finishing the wash.
Knitwear and woollens should be dried flat away
from direct sunlight.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the choice
of detergent and use of the correct quantities to
avoid waste and protect the environment. Although
biodegradable, detergents contain substances
which in large quantities can damage the delicate
ecological balance of nature.

Liquid detergents

Using the new automatic dispenser for liquid
detergents, it is possible to use a liquid detergent
for main wash phases if you start the washing
machine immediately.
Liquid detergents can be used instead of powder
detergents particularly for lightly soiled laundry
and for medium or low temperature washing pro­grammes, while it is better to use a powder
detergent for high temperature washing
programmes.

Liquid additives

Any liquid additives for softening the laundry must
be poured into the compartment of the detergent
dispenser drawer before starting the programme.
The addition of water softener is particularly useful
when drying the clothes in a tumble dryer after
washing to avoid a static charge.
Make sure that the level of the liquid never exceeds
the MAX level.

Always use good quality detergents suitable
for use in washing machines.

Follow the indications given by the detergent
manufacturer according to the weight of laundry,
the degree of soil and the hardness of the water in
your area; if you do not know how hard it is, ask
your local Water Authority.

Powder detergents.

The washing powder should be placed in the
appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer
before starting the programme. Special detergents
are availaible for coloured and delicate fabrics
and for wool.

"Concentrated" powder detergents

Pour the concentrated powder detergent into the
main wash ( ) compartment.

Avoid selecting programmes including
prewash when concentrated detergents are
used.

Bleach

You may use a bleach agent on cotton program­mes. However, ensure that the fabric withstands
the treatment. Bleach is automatically washed
down into the drum. Pour 1/4 to 1 glass of 12° chl

bleach into compartment "
the machine on.
Make sure that the level of the liquid never exceeds
the MAX level.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Make sure that the machine is unplugged and

the water tap turned off before undertaking any kind of maintenance.

Bodywork

The outside or the machine can be cleaned with
warm water and a neutral non-abrasive household
detergent. Wipe with clean water and dry after
cleaning.
Important : do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.
It is advisable, from time to time, to carry out a
complete cycle without a washing load, adding a
decalcifying product.

The detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove.
Exert a pressure on the brooches located on each

side of the detergent dispenser and pull it up (fig.1
and fig.2).

Clean the detergent dispenser under running water
with a brush or a piece of rag (fig.3). Check that the
siphons located at the back of the detergent
dispenser are not obstructed (fig.4).

Replace the detergent dispenser in the notches
until the hanging (fig.5).

The drain filter

The machine has got a mecanic filter located on
the front part to collect lint and small objects
(toothpins, coins, pins, etc) inadvertently left in the
clothes. It is essential that this filter is cleaned
regularly.

Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of
articles washed (cleaning should be more frequent
if the articles have no hem and tend to fray).

Installation

Unpacking

The parts protecting the inner components of
the machine during transit must all be removed
before using your machine for the first time.
These parts and their securing means should
be kept in case the machine has to be
transported again.

Unpack the appliance. Tilt the appliance
backwards. Give to one of the back corners a
quarter turn. The appliance comes free naturally
out the polystyrene basis. Take away this basis
(fig. 1).

Open the lid of the appliance and remove the
polystyrene and plastic wedges which block
the drum. Close the lid (fig. 2).

On the back part and with a spanner, remove
the two loosened spacers (A) (fig. 3).

The holes which are now visible must be closed
with the plugs (B) provided with the appliance
(fig. 4).

Installation

The floor must be clean and dry, free from floor
polish and other greasy substances, so that the
machine does not slide about. Do not use any
grease as lubrification.
Installation on deep pile carpets and floor
coverings with foam backings is not recommended,
as the stability of the machine is no longer guaran­teed. If the installation must be done on a carpeted
floor, the openings located at the lower part of the
back of the appliance must remain free. These
openings ensure a good ventilation of your appli­ance. In case of small format tiles, place a stan­dard rubber mat under the machine.

With sprung floors, in particular wooden plank
floors with yielding floor boards, screw down a
waterproof wooden base at least 15 mm thick,
across at least 2 floor boards. Wherever possible,
place the appliance in the corner of the room ­there wooden floors are most secure and least
liable to resonance vibrations.
Never compensate for small unevennesses in the
floor by placing wood, pasteboard or such like.

The front adjustable feet must be blocked after
installation of the appliance by means of the
locking nuts.

Levelling

It is essential that your machine is absolutely level.
Raise or lower the front feet of the machine;
tighten the nuts of the feet with an adjustable
wrench (fig.1).
Also make sure that the machine does not touch
the wall, the furnitures etc. during the functioning.
This in order to avoid vibrations, noise or displace­ments of the appliance during operation.

Moving of the appliance

To move your washing machine, put it on its
wheels by turning from the right to the left the
special lever situated at the bottom of the machine
(fig.2). Once the machine placed at the chosen
place, bring back the lever to its initial original
position.

Water connection

Connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap
with a 3/4" gas threaded orifice, after having
inserted the rugger sealing washer into the hose
collar (fig.1). If the water connection is made onto
new pipes or onto pipes which have not been used
for a long time, it is advisable to run off a certain
amount of water before connecting the machine.
Place the curved end of the outled hose into a
drain pipe having a height between 70 and 100 cm
from floor level (fig.2) or secure it to a sink (fig.3).
Make sure that the drain hose is firmly secured so
that it will not slip out or fall down from its position.

The water should drain freely and, consequently,
the drain hose should not be choked or placed in
such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow. If
an extension hose is required, remember that it
might cause a malfunction in the drain pump,
particularly if the extension has a length in excess
of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension is
smaller than the diameter of the original drain
hose.

Electrical connection

Before fitting the plug into the wall socket, check
the following points :

1) The supply voltage of the domestic wiring
system does not fluctuate by more that 10%, plus
or minus, from 230 V.

2) The meter, the fuses, the supply line and the
wall socket are suitable to carry the maximum load
required by the machine (2,3 kW).

Very important :
The washing machine is provided with a feeding
wire with earth connection: it must be
connected to a plug like that is provided with
a good earth connection. The wall plug must
be easily accessible.

The replacing of the power cord must only be
realized by the After Sales Service in order to
avoid any danger.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility
where the previous recommendations are not
followed.
