Use
Always unplug the appliance and turn off the water after use.
Do not overload the appliance. See relevant section in instruction book.
Only wash fabrics which are designed to be machine washed. If in doubt, consult the care label on the clothes.
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 washed in large commercial machines because of their bulk, please check with the manufacturer of the item before washing in a domestic machine.
Leave the porthole door slightly ajar between washes to preserve the door seal.

Before starting the machine up, the packing must be removed as follows.
You are advised to keep all the packaging for re­use in case the machine is to be transported again.
Using a spanner unscrew and remove the rear right bolt. Lay the machine gently on its back, making sure that the hoses are not squashed.
Remove the polystyrene base and take off the bottom panel by unscrewing the central screw. Carefully slide out the right polythene bag.

Repeat the operation for the left and central polythene bags. Re-fit the bottom panel using the 4 screws supplied with the door hinges (in the plastic bag) and the previously removed screw.
Set the machine upright and remove the two remaining bolts from the back. Pull out the three plastic spacers from the holes into which the bolts were fitted. Plug the open holes with the plugs which you can find at the back of the appliance.

Positioning
Your new washing machine has been designed to be permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it may be connected to suitable existing taps with the drain hose discharging into a sink.
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 alteration to your existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent person, or qualified plumber.
Water inlet
The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded, blue for cold and red for hot.
Before connecting the hoses be sure to fit the mesh filters supplied as per diagram.
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a «Y» connection piece.
Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulations’ requirements.
The appliance must be given a separate cold water supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a single outlet water heater or a booster pump. A minimum water pressure of 0.48 bar is required for safe operation of the appliance.
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the appliance from your cold water storage system.
There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m

/

(16
ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the
bottom of the water storage tank. There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water
supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74 metres (9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water storage tank and the bottom of the hot water cylinder.
Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts. After positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten the ring nuts again to prevent leaks.

Water drainage
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed into your home’s water supply and drainage system.
Hook the end of the drain hose into a standpipe installed for the purpose. The standpipe must have an internal diameter of at least 40 mm (1 order that there is an air gap between the drain hose and the standpipe. Make sure, that it is designed in such a way, that the end of the drain hose cannot be covered with water.
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is available from your local service centre. The joining piece must have an internal diameter of 18 mm.
Important
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or to pipework that has not been used for some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris that may have collected in the pipes.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the end of the drain hose is neither too high nor too low. The top of the curve in the hose’s end should be no more than 90 cm (35.4”), and no less than 60cm (23.6”) above floor level.

Levelling
Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the feet. The feet may be tight to adjust as they incorporate a self locking nut, but the machine MUST be level. Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine during operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a wooden floor.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible, always place the machine on a solid floor.
Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted with a deep-pile carpet or covered with crumbly or soft material, insert a rigid support base under the feet to prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base should protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of the machine.

Warning
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile carpeting.
Note
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.
All plumbing and electrical work required to install this appliance must be carried out by competent persons or qualified plumbers or electricians.
In the interest of the environment
Washing machines and dishwashers should be connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water will then be taken to a sewage works for treatment before being discharged safely into a river. It is essential that these appliances are not connected to the surface water drainage system as this water is discharged directly into a river or stream and may cause pollution. If you require any further advice please contact your local authority drainage department.

The manufacturer declines any liability should this safety measure not be observed.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.
Remove the fuse from the cut off plug. The cut off plug should then be disposed of to prevent the hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a 13 Amp socket in another part of your home.

the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter «E» or the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.
Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter «N» or coloured black.
