programmes for which the RINSE HOLD option has been selected;
the display shows a zero (fixed, not flashing)
Ö End of cycle: indicated by a zero (flashing) and, at the same time,
the door pilot lamp switches off. The zero re-appears when the
appliance is switched on again, if the previous programme has not
been cancelled. It may occur, when the appliance is switched on for
the first time, that a flashing zero is shown on the display and the
acoustic signals are activated. This is due to the fact that the machine
has performed a washing cycle during testing in the factory which has
not been cancelled on completion.
Ö Delayed start, which is selected using the DELAYED START button.
The countdown starts when the START/PAUSE button is pressed,
and is decremented at intervals of one hour.

VT movement during rinses in "jetsystem total exchange" COTTON programmes – Only for models
with circulation pump (jetsystem):
During these phases, in which the motor rotates at high speed, if the electronic pressure switch detects that
the water in the tub falls below a certain level, the following operations are performed:
Ö spin at 470 rpm (VT_MOV_CODE) to remove the water from the fabrics and therefore to increase the
level in the tub
Ö 5 seconds pause, during which the level is again checked and, if necessary, the solenoid valve is
activated in order to load water until the level is correct
Ö energetic movement (E) (with the circulation pump in operation)
These operations may be repeated up to a maximum of three times for each rinse

4.4 “FUCS”
(Fast Unbalance Control System)
The control procedure for unbalanced loads is performed dynamically, before each spin cycle, as follows:
• The phase starts with the inversion rotation of the drum at a speed of 55 rpm.
• The phase begins at a speed of 55 rpm; the speed can never fall below this threshold, otherwise the
check is repeated.
•At intervals of 400 ms, the balance is calculated and compared with predetermined limits. If the value is
less than the lower limit, the speed of the drum is increased by 2 rpm; if the value is higher, the speed of
the drum is reduced by 2 rpm. The reduction in the speed of the drum distributes the washing correctly;
this procedure is repeated until the wash load is completely balanced.
• Correct balancing of the wash load is achieved at a speed of 115 rpm, after which the spin cycle begins.
The Unbalancing Control function takes place in four steps: each phase is characterised by a value of unbalancing threshold and by a time out (max. time)
Step 0: The zero phase has a preset unbalancing threshold; if correct balancing is achieved, the appliance
performs a spin pulse at 470 rpm, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm and followed by phase 1;
otherwise, after a maximum of 60 seconds the function passes to step 1.
Step 1: The first phase has a different preset unbalancing threshold; if correct balancing is achieved, the
appliance performs the spin cycle, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm. Otherwise, after a maximum of
120 seconds, the function passes to step 2.
Step 2: The second phase is characterised by a different unbalancing threshold: if correct balancing is not
achieved within 60 seconds, the function passes to step 3.
Step 3: The third phase has a preset unbalancing threshold: if correct balancing is achieved within 90
seconds a spin pulse is performed, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm and followed by a new step 1;
otherwise, after a maximum of 90 seconds, the function passes to a new step 1.
If the unbalancing value remains excessive at the second attempt during step 3, the spin cycle is
skipped; if the balancing is not correct a reduced spin is performed.

The overall structure of the microprocessor memory on the main PCB is subdivided into three sections:
ROM
RAM
EEPROM
POWER FAIL
&
MACHINE
STATUS
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
PROGRAMME VARIABLES
CYCLE
PARAMETERS
CONFIGURATION
MACHINE
ROM This area of memory contains the software with the general instructions that control the operation
of the appliance, such as those of the electrical components and alarms. The ROM is set up by
the manufacturer of the microprocessor, and cannot be modified.
RAMThis part of memory contains all the variables used during the execution of the wash programme,
which are written in dynamic format. The RAM can be read using a DAAS interface.
EEPROM This area of memory contains:
Ö the data necessary to restart the appliance in case of a power failure.
Ö the parameters for the wash cycle, such as water fill level, speed and type of motor movement, and the
temperature during the various phases of the wash cycle. Once written, this data is protected and,
normally, can be read only using a DAAS interface
Ö data relative to the configuration of the appliance, such as the speed of the final spin phase, the volume
of the tub, the type of washing system, etc. This data may be entered either via a DAAS interface or via
the control/display board.
ENTERING DATA INTO THE EEPROM
All the data is entered into the EEPROM on the production line of the washing machines using a computer
with a DAAS interface.
In the field, the configuration only can be modified using a combination of buttons on the control/display
board.
SOI/DT 2002-06 eb 28 599 35 27-35
5.2 Analog pressure switch (electronic)
The electronic pressure switch is an analog device that controls the water level in the tub. It is directly
connected to the main electronic PCB.
1. air inlet hose
2. diaphragm
3. coil
4. electronic circuit
(oscillator)
5. core
6. spring
7. calibration screw
8. connector
The pressure switch is connected by a hose to
the pressure chamber.
When the tub is filled with water, the pressure
created inside the hydraulic circuit expands the
diaphragm. This in turn modifies the position of
the core inside the coil, thus changing the
inductance and the frequency of the oscillating
circuit.
The electronic PCB, according to the
frequency, recognizes the quantity of the
water in the tub.

5.3 Instantaneous door safety device
Certain models are fitted with an instantaneous door
safety device; this means that the door can be opened
as soon as the drum stops rotating.
1. PTC solenoid protector
2. Solenoid
3. Lever mechanism
4. Cam
5. PTC - bimetal
6. Electrical contacts (main switch)
7. Latch
Operation principle
When the ON/OFF button is pressed to switch the appliance on, the bimetal PTC is powered; the cam is in
a position which prevents the latch from moving outwards.
When the START/PAUSE button is pressed to start the programme, the main PCB transmits a signal
(duration 20 msec) to the solenoid (at least 6 seconds after the appliance is switched on). The solenoid
causes the cams to rotate one position. This raises the latch which holds the cursor of the door safety
device in position and, at the same time, closes the contacts of the main switch, which thus powers all the
components in the appliance.
At the end of the programme, the board transmits two signals (at an interval of 200 msec and having the
same 20 msec duration):
- the first signal moves the cams a further position, though without releasing the latch.
- the second signal (which is transmitted only if the system functions correctly) moves the cams another
position, which causes the latch to retract, thus releasing the safety device. At the same time, the
contacts of the main switch are opened.
Conditions of door opening
Before transmitting the door aperture signal, the main PCB checks that the following conditions are
observed:
• the drum must be stationary (i.e. no signal received from the tachometric generator)
• the water must not be above the lower lip of the door
• the temperature of the water must be not more than 40°C.
Automatic release device
In case of a power failure, or if the appliance is switched off using the ON/OFF button, or if the solenoid
should malfunction, the bimetal PTC cools over a period varying from 55 seconds to 4 minutes (at a
temperature of 65°C), after which the door lock is released.
Solenoid protection
A PTC is connected in series with the solenoid with the purpose of limiting the current (and thus possible
overheating) in the following cases:
• TRIAC on the main PCB short-circuited
• Repeated actioning of the START/PAUSE button (more than 10 times)

5.4 Detergent dispenser
Water is ducted into the detergent dispenser by a solenoid valve with
one inlet and two or three outlets. Some models are fitted with a second
solenoid valve for hot water fill.
The same detergent dispenser is used in all models; the only difference
lies in the water intake nozzle. The detergent dispenser may consist of
three or four compartments.
1. Solenoid valve
2. Detergent dispenser
•The detergent contained in the “a” compartment filled at the start of
the pre-wash.
•In some models, with “stains” option, the “a” compartment can be
used alternatively to contain the stain remover, which is filled during
the wash phase.
Water fill to pre-wash compartment
(pre-wash solenoid)
Water fill to wash compartment
(wash solenoid)
•The “b” compartment is used to contain the detergent that is filled at
the start of the wash cycle.
Water fill to softener compartment
(pre-wash and wash solenoids)
•The “d” compartment is used to contain the softener that is filled at
the start of the last rinse
Water fill to bleach compartment
(bleach solenoid)
• In models with 4-compartment dispenser water is filled into “c”
compartment at the start of the last rinse.
Hot water fill
(hot water/wash solenoids)
•In models with hot water solenoid the hot water/wash solenoids are
actioned simultaneously to fill water mixed in the wash compartment.
SOI/DT 2002-06 eb 31 599 35 27-35
5.5 Power supply to the motor
The main PCB powers the motor directly via a TRIAC. Reversal of the direction of the motor is effected by
two relays that vary the connection between the rotor and the stator.
A third relay powers the stator in half- or full-range operation, depending on the spin speed.
The speed of the motor is controlled by a signal received from the tachometric generator.
During the spin cycles, the microprocessor checks for an unbalanced load and for excessive foam.
5.5.1 AC/DC Converter
This component, which is fitted to certain models only
convert the alternating current generated by the TRIAC on the
main PCB into a direct current to power the drum motor.
In Jetsystem models, the circulation pump is powered directly by the main PCB via a TRIAC.
5.7 Heating
The heating element is powered directly by the main PCB via a relay.
As a safety feature, a traditional dual-level pressure switch (anti-boiling 1 and anti-boiling 2) is connected in
series to the heating element.
The temperature is controlled directly by the main PCB via an NTC temperature sensor.

6 Diagnostics and configuration system
6.1 Access to the diagnostics and configuration system
Using a single procedure, it is possible to access both the diagnostics and configuration systems. After
accessing this function, the following operations can be performed:
control of the operation of each of the components in the appliance
analysis of alarm conditions
configuration of the main PCB
To access the system:
Ö press the SKIP/RESET button to cancel the programme previously selected and switch off the appliance
Ö press the START/PAUSE (7) button together with the SKIP/RESET (8) button and then, holding down
both buttons, press the ON/OFF button to switch on the appliance
Ö hold both buttons (START/PAUSE and SKIP/RESET) down until the buzzer sounds and the LEDs begin
to flash (about 4 seconds).
At this point, the display board is checked and the LEDs (and, if featured, the display window) light in
sequence.
If the main PCB has not been configured, it is possible only to perform the test on the display board and the
configuration procedure.
SOI/DT 2002-06 eb 34 599 35 27-35
6.2 Diagnostics system
The diagnostics system can be used to check the correct operation of all the components in the washing
machine.
After accessing the diagnostics routine, the display board is checked for correct operation. All the LEDs
(and, if featured, the display) light in sequence.
Press the FABRICS button (1) to pass to the subsequent test phase (LED L1 lit).
Press the FABRICS button again to increment the number of the phase controlled. After the last phase,
the display returns to its normal condition. The LED corresponding to the phase being tested lights (L1
→ L10).
Press the TEMPERATURE button (2) to decrement the number of the phase controlled. After the last
phase, the display returns to its normal condition(L10 → L1).

After accessing the diagnostics system, the display board is checked for correct operation. All the LEDs
(and, if featured, the display) light in sequence.
When the various buttons are pressed, the corresponding LEDs light. The display shows a binary code
corresponding to the code of the button pressed and the buzzer sounds.
When the FABRICS or TEMPERATURE buttons are pressed, the corresponding LED lights for a moment
and the binary code is displayed. On completion of the test, the buzzer sounds and the system passes to the
previous or subsequent phase of the diagnostics cycle.
The display board test is performed automatically even if the board is powered while not connected to the
main PCB and the programme selector.

(*) When the max. time is exceeded (timeout) error E61 is normally displayed (insufficient heating during
wash) since, although the heating is performed with the drum still, not every appliance can reach the
55°C temperature in 5 minutes.
In most cases this time is sufficient to control the heating; to reach the pre-set temperature, repeat this
phase without draining the water (skip for a while to another diagnostics phase and then go back to
heating control phase again).
If an alarm condition occurs during the course of the diagnostics cycle, the appliance stops and the display
or LEDs flash to indicate the alarm code.

6.5 Alarms
The electronic control unit detects and recognizes any malfunctions in the operation of the appliance, in
which case an alarm condition is generated. Alarm conditions may be of three types:
cycle paused
cycle blocked
current phase skipped
Only four alarm conditions are normally displayed to the user
Ö problems with water fill
Ö problems with drain
Ö door open
Ö communication error between the electronic boards, or configuration error
In the first three cases, the cycle is paused so that the user can, if possible, solve the problem. The code
showing the type of alarm flashes on the display.
In models without a display window, the last wash phase LED (end) flashes; the code relative to the type of
alarm flashes on the first four LEDs (and on the display).
For example, in the case of alarm E41 (door open), the display will show E40. In models not featuring a
display window, as well as the end-of-cycle LED which indicates error "E", the second LED indicates 4 in
binary code.
As can be seen from the general alarm code table, E4.. alarm conditions include all alarms relative to door
closure problems:
- E41: door open
- E42: door interlock malfunction
- E43, E44, E45: problems with main PCB or wiring
In the case of communication or configuration errors, the alarm is displayed immediately when the
appliance is switched on; in the event of configuration errors, the only possible action is to access the
diagnostics system.
The FILTER BLOCKED alarm is signalled by the corresponding LED (if featured) only at the end of the
cycle; EF0 flashes on the display.

SOI/DT 2002-06 eb 38 599 35 27-35
6.6 Reading the last alarm condition
The diagnostics system makes it possible to identify the last alarm condition which occurred during the
operation of the appliance. To read this alarm condition, after accessing the diagnostics system (see
"Access to the diagnostics / configuration system), press the FABRICS or TEMPERATURE buttons until
LED L9 lights.
The alarm condition is shown on the display, or the corresponding binary code flashes on the wash phase
LEDs.
Ö The first four LEDs indicate the first digit of the alarm code
Ö The second four LEDs indicate the second digit of the alarm code
For example, if an E41 alarm condition (door open) is generated, the display will show E41 or (if the
appliance does not feature the display window) the second LED in the first group (equivalent to 4 in binary
code) and the fourth LED in the second group (equivalent to1 in binary code) will flash.
If no alarm condition has occurred, E00 is displayed.
6.6.1 Diagnostics cycle alarms
If a malfunction should occur during the course of the diagnostics cycle, the relative alarm codes are
displayed. In this case, too, the wash phase LEDs (or the display) show the error code (flashing).
Binary codes
The table below shows how to convert the binary code displayed by the LEDs into the corresponding
decimal number.

6.9 Configuration of the main PCB
A standard main PCB is available as a spare part. This PCB contains only data relative to the wash cycle.
After replacing the main PCB, it is necessary to perform the configuration procedure in order to
operate the washing machine.
Configuration of the board consists of entering a 16-digit code which contains information which varies from
model to model (type of washing system, type of tub, spin speed, etc.).
To access the machine configuration procedure, first enter the diagnostics system, and then:
Ö press the FABRICS (1) or
TEMPERATURE (2) buttons until LED
L10 lights; the code relative to the first of
the 16 digits of the configuration code
(position 0) is displayed)
Ö when the SKIP/RESET button (8) is
pressed, all the digits which make up the
configuration code are displayed in
sequence
Ö press the START/PAUSE button (7) to
modify the configuration code (digit by
digit
Ö when all 16 digits have been entered,
check that the code is correct, then
memorize the code by pressing the
START/PAUSE (7) and SKIP/RESET (8)
buttons at the same time; these buttons
should be held down for at least 4
seconds (i.e. until the buzzer sounds).
When configuration has been completed, perform the diagnostics routine in order to check that the
appliance functions correctly. In case of an error, the display window will show error code E93 and the
machine stops.

6.9.1 Configuration code
The configuration code (16 alphanumeric digits) is
shown on a label affixed to the casing of the main PCB
and in the Spare Parts Lists describing the various
models. It is advisable to note the configuration code on
the casing of the new PCB fitted to the washing
machine
READING THE CONFIGURATION CODE
The configuration code is shown, one character at a time, on the display (if featured) or on the washing
phase display LEDs.
A = The first digit shown on the display (if featured) indicates the position of the value to be entered. On
models not fitted with a display window, the same information is displayed in binary format on the first
four washing phase LEDs. To read the various positions, press the SKIP/RESET button (8) repeatedly
(the first position displayed is "0").
B = The last digit on the display (if featured) indicates the value of the configuration character to be entered
in a given position. On models not fitted with a display window, the same information is displayed in
binary format on the second set of four washing phase LEDs. To modify the value of the character
displayed, press the START/PAUSE button (7) repeatedly as necessary.
BINARY CODES
The table below can be used to convert the binary code shown by the LEDs into the corresponding letter or
decimal number.
On models not featuring the display window, it is advisable, before beginning the configuration procedure, to
convert the digits of the configuration code into binary format (the positions, indicated by the second group
of 4 LEDs, are not modified).
2. Press the FABRICS (1) or TEMPERATURE (2) buttons until LED L10 lights. The code relative to the first
of the 16 characters of the configuration code is displayed (position zero).
3. Press the START/PAUSE button (7) sequentially to enter the letter A in position 0. If the appliance
features a display window, this will show 0-A; if not, the wash cycle LEDs should light as shown in column
0 of the table (i.e. the fifth and seventh LEDs).
4. Press the SKIP/RESET button (8) to pass to the second position, and enter 2 by pressing START/PAUSE
(7) as necessary. The display should now show 1-2, and the LEDs should light as shown in column 1 of
the table (fourth and seventh).
5. Repeat this procedure to enter the remaining configuration digits. When all the digits have been entered,
press the SKIP/RESET button (8) to check that the configuration code is correct.
6. Memorize the configuration code by pressing the START/PAUSE (7) and SKIP/RESET (8) buttons at the
same time for at least 4 seconds, so that the configuration code is memorized by the main PCB.
7. Perform the diagnostics cycle to check that the appliance operates correctly. In case of a configuration
error, error E93 is displayed and the operation of the appliance is interrupted).

6.10 Exiting the diagnostics cycle
To exit the diagnostics cycle, switch the appliance off, then on,
then off again.
6.11 Operating time counter
A specific procedure can be used to display the total number of hours of operation of the appliance, which
are counted as from the first time it is operated. This option is available on models with display only
maximum value that can be stored in memory is 6,550 hours of operation.
Ö only the time of the normal programmes is counted (cycle diagnostics are not included).
Ö the effective time of the cycles is counted (i.e. not including pauses, delayed start times, rinse hold
periods and the soak phases).
Ö the accuracy of the counter is to within 30 seconds for each programme.
only whole hours of operation are displayed (1 hr 59 minutes is displayed as 1 hour)
6.11.1 Reading the operating time
Ö reset the running programme and switch the
appliance off
Ö press buttons FABRICS (1) and button
TEMPERATURE (2) simultaneously and then,
holding then down, switch the appliance on with
button ON/OFF
Öhold down buttons for at least 4 seconds
Displaying the operating time
The operating time is displayed two digits at a time. The first pair of digits shows the thousands and
hundreds; the second pair shows tens and units.
For example, a total operating time of 6,550 hours will be displayed as follows:
1 → 2 → 3 →
The second pair of two digits is
displayed for two seconds:
- tens (5)
- units (0)
Blank display for two seconds
The first pair of digits is
displayed for two seconds
- thousands (6)
- hundreds (5)

7 DEMO Mode
A special cycle has been created for demonstration of the operation of these appliances in retail outlets
without connecting the appliance to the water supply. In this way, the salesman can select any programme;
after starting the cycle by pressing START, the appliance will perform certain phases only, and will skip
those which cannot be performed (water fill, drain, heating).
The cycle takes place as follows:
the door locking device is actioned in the normal way (i.e. the door remains locked while the appliance is
in operation, and can be opened at the end of the cycle or in pause mode)
motor: all low-speed movements are enabled, while the pulse signals and the spin cycle are excluded
the water fill solenoids and the drain pump are disabled
circulation pump (certain models only): this pump is normally disabled, but functions if water is
introduced manually until the anti-boiling safety level has been reached
display: since the phases of the cycle take place in rapid succession (1 second of the demo cycle is
equivalent to 1 minute of the actual cycle), the time-to-elapse decreases by 1 unit per second.
Remember that the time-to-elapse does not always correspond to the actual cycle time
alarms: for reasons of safety, the following groups of alarms remain enabled: E40 (door closed), E50
and E90 (communication between the boards/configuration).
7.1 Setting demo mode
Ö Reset the running programme and switch the appliance off
Ö Press button FABRICS (1) and button SPIN (3) simultaneously and then, holding them down, switch the
appliance on with button ON/OFF
ÖPress and hold down the buttons for at least 4 seconds
7.2 Exiting demo mode
Switch the appliance off to exit the demo mode.
