Before washing, ensure that all pockets are empty
and buttons and zips are fastened. Avoid washing
frayed or torn articles and treat stains such as paint,
ink, rust, and grass before washing. Underwired bras
must NOT be machine washed.
●
Any objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws,
stones or any other hard, sharp material can cause
extensive damage and must not be placed into the
machine.
●
Garments which have been in contact with volatile
petroleum products should not be machine washed.
If volatile cleaning fluids are used, care should be
taken to ensure that the fluid is removed from the
garment before placing in the machine.
●
Wash small items such as socks, laces, washable
belts etc in a washing bag or pillow case as it is
possible for such items to slip down between the tub
and the inner drum.
●
Only use the advised quantities of fabric softener.
Damage to the fabric can ensue if you over-fill.
Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations of
quantities.
●
As some duvets and eiderdowns should be

●
Plastic detergent dispensers should not remain in the
drum during the drying cycle, as the plastic used is
not designed to withstand the heat. If you wish to
wash-through-to-dry you should use the
conventional detergent dispenser drawer.
●
Leave the porthole door slightly ajar between washes
to preserve the door seal.
●
Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair
the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious
malfunctioning. Contact your local Tricity Bendix
Service Force Centre. Always insist on genuine
Tricity Bendix spare parts.

Your New Washer-Dryer
Your new washer-dryer meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with
low water, energy and detergent consumption.
It is gentle with your laundry, simple to use and easy to care for.
●
The special wool programme with its new delicate
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
●
The anti-unbalance device ensures that the
machine remains stable when spinning.
●
Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C
before draining, with the 95°C programme. This
reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent
creasing.
●
The two drying programmes will give your wash
that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.
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.
●
Try to load the maximum drying capacity of the
machine as small loads are uneconomical.
●
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin
speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the
shorter the drying times.
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".
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTION BOOK BEFORE USE.
