Your New Washing Machine
Your new washing machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry
with low water, energy and detergent consumption.
Ecological hints
To save water and energy and help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
hints:
Adjust the quantity of detergent according to
the hardness of your water supply, the amount
of laundry and the degree of soiling.
A programme without prewash is sufficient for
normally soiled laundry.
In the interest of the environment
Materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.
Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your
area for re-cycling this appliance.
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off
the power supply cable and make the door lock
device unusable to prevent young children from
being trapped inside.
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
How do we help to protect the environment?
We use recycled paper!
Important
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is stable during the
spin. If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, because,
it is not evenly distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be
necessary to redistribute the wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something Not Working".

6 Heavy Soil Button
By pressing the heavy soil button, the machine
will take in cold water only on programmes
with a water temperature of 50°-60°-95°
(programmes B - C and J).
These would normally be hot or hot and cold.
The water is then gradually heated to the
required temperature. The effect is to improve
the overall wash performance, particularly on
biological stains such as egg, blood and grass
stains, and heavily soiled fabrics, since the
longer "cool-soak" phase as the water heats up
provides the right conditions for the powder and
the water temperature to interact, and achieve
the best possible results.
7 Programme Selector Dial
To select the required programme, turn the dial
in a clockwise direction until the programme
required is shown in the display window.
Do not turn the programme selector anticlockwise (to the left). Ensure the ON/OFF
button is in the OFF position when selecting
a programme.
8 Spin Speed Selector Dial
The spin speed can be varied as follows:
Cotton & linen : from 1250 to 500 rpm.
Mixed fabrics and delicates : from 650 to 300 rpm
Wool : from 1000 to 300 rpm.

White items should not be washed with
coloured items.
Wash new coloured items separately when
washing for the first time.
Treat stains such as paint, ink, rust and grass
before washing.
Some duvets and eiderdowns should be washed
in large commercial machines. Check with the
manufacturer of the item.
Help the Environment:
To save water, energy and help protect the
environment.
Do not use a pre-wash for normally soiled
washing.
Wash full loads

Page 10
Which detergent? ...
And in which form?
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from
your appliance, it is important to use the right
detergent in your everyday wash, and only
detergents recommended for use in automatic
machines.
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and
household textiles and to make them last longer
you should use different types of detergent for
different washes, whether for whites, colours or
delicates.
Whites
We recommend the Ariel product
range which is biological and
designed to provide excellent
cleaning and stain removal even
at low temperatures.
Non Biological
If you prefer to use a non biological
detergent, which does not contain
enzymes we recommend Fairy.
Fairy provides good cleaning and
stain removal.
Coloureds
For coloured items you should use a
detergent which is designed to clean
while maintaining the original colour.
Ariel Color does not contain bleach
and therefore helps to preserve
colours.
Delicate items
When washing delicates such as
woollens, you should use a product which
is specially designed to care for fine
fabrics. Dreft Automatic is suitable for
woollens and other delicates.
Laundry Bleach
For additional stain removal you may wish
to use a product such as Ace Gentle Bleach
which is used in addition to your chosen
detergent. Ace is suitable for all washable
fabrics including silks, woollens and
coloureds.
Not only are there different types of detergent, but
they are also available in different forms. Whether
you choose a powder or liquid in traditional or
compact form is down to personal choice.
Traditional Powders
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer.
Do not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.
Traditional Liquids
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment
of the detergent drawer marked with the symbol
start the machine immediately upon placing the
detergent in the dispenser drawer. Alternatively
the detergent is measured into the specially
designed dosing device* which should be placed
on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
Compact Powders and Liquids
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are
also known) are available in liquid or powder form,
and generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions to ensure the most
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into
the dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the
detergent into the specially designed dosing device*
which should be placed on top of the laundry, and
at the back of the machine drum.
* if you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is
removed before carrying out a drying
programme.
Fabric Conditioners
These are ideal for improving "softness", and also
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing
easier. They are available in two types.
For example Lenor liquid fabric softener,
for use in the washing machine/
washer dryer. The liquid fabric softener
should be poured into the compartment
marked with the symbol
manufacturer's dosage instructions and never
exceed the MAX level.
Bounce conditioning sheets for use in a
tumble dryer. We recommend the
conditioning sheets are pinned (using a
safety pin) to an article of laundry and
placed in the tumble dryer.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning
you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the
electricity supply.
Descaling
The water we normally use contains lime. To help
prevent the formation of lime deposits we
recommend you periodically, particularly in hard
water areas, use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry and
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
After each wash
Leave the lid and the drum open for a while. This
helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming
inside the appliance.
External Cleaning
Wipe the exterior cabinet of the appliance with a
soft cloth and warm soapy water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning products.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove.
Press the pressure tabs located on each side of
the detergent dispenser inwards and pull it up
(fig.1 and fig.2).
Clean the detergent dispenser under running water
with a brush or cloth (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).
Cleaning the drain filter
A clean filter is important for correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned
after every wash.
Open the flapdoor (fig.6)
To drain the residual water :
Place a shallow container beneath the flapdoor.
Turn the filter handle anticlockwise until the
filter cap handle is vertical, any residual water
will be released (fig.7).

fig.7
15
Page 15
To clean the filter :
Unscrew the filter anticlockwise and remove.
Clean the filter carefully under a fast running
tap.
Replace the filter and refit by screwing in a
clockwise direction. Close the flapdoor.
Never remove the water drain filter during
a wash cycle.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below
0°C, certain precautions should be taken.
Turn off both water taps.
Select a wash programme and run for a few
seconds to relieve the pressure in the hoses.
Unscrew the hoses and drain them into a bowl
at ground level.
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support
and position the end in a bowl at ground level to
drain.
fig.8
When intending to use the machine again, reconnect the hoses and make sure that the room
temperature is above 0°C.

Water connection
Min 30 cm (12)
This appliance is designed to be permanently
plumbed into your home's water supply and drainage system.
Water inlet
The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold
with female 3/4" BSP thread connectors. If this
connection is not compatible with the plumbing of
the existing installation, a variety of connectors
are available from good hardware stores and
plumbers merchants to suit most domestic
plumbing.
Any alterations to your existing plumbing must be
carried out by a competent person, or qualified
plumber.
The inlet hoses on the back of the appliance are
colour coded. Connect the hose with blue printed
text to the cold water supply and the hose with red
printed text to the hot water supply.
Before connecting the hoses be sure to fit the
washers supplied.
If only a cold water supply is availalbe connect the
two hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a "Y"
connection piece. (Available from your local D.I.Y.
Store).
Water Drainage
The appliance drain hose should hook into a
standpipe, with an internal diameter of
approximately 38mm (see diagram) thus ensuring
there is an air break between the drain hose and
standpipe. The hook in the drain hose is formed
using the plastic "U-piece" supplied. The "U-piece"
also has a retaining eye to secure the outlet hose
and prevent if from slipping off its location.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the
top of the curve in the hose end is no more than
100cm and no less than 70cm above floor level.
The upright standpipe should have a minimum,
length of 30cm (12") from the bottom of the elbow
to the top of the pipe (see diagram). Make sure that
it is designed in such a way that the end of the drain
hose cannot be covered with water.
If you intend the drain hose from the washing
machine to empty into a sink, make sure that the
sink is empty and that the plug hole is not blocked.
Use the plastic "U-piece" supplied. The "U-piece"
also has a retaining eye to secure the outlet hose
and prevent it from slipping off its location. The
force of draining water may force the hose out of
the sink.
