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.
The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may
not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collec­tion point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
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".

Press this button to select the following options: PREWASH : select this option if you wish your laundry to be prewashed before the main wash (not available for wool and hand-wash cycle).
The prewash ends with a short spin at 650 rpm in programmes for cotton and synthetics fabrics, whereas in the programme for delicate fabrics the water is only drained. ECO : This option can be selected only for synthetics lightly or normally soiled with a temperature of 40°C or higher. The washing time will be prolonged. QUICK : Suitable for lightly soiled clothes.
This function cannot be used on the wool and hand-wash programmes.
The washing time is reduced on the basis of the type of FABRICS and TEMPERATURE which have been selected. SUPER RINSE : this option can be selected with all programmes except the wool programme and hand-wash. The machine performs 4 rinses instead of 3. This option is recommended for people who are allergic to detergents, and in areas where the water is very soft. NIGHT CYCLE : This option reduces the noise by your washing machine while offering the same washing performances. Thus, you can use your washing machine at night without being inconvenienced by the noise. There is no spin cycle and the last rinsing water is left in the machine to prevent the washing from becoming creased if it is not immediately removed from the drum.

12 How to open the lid during the cycle of the programme
You can open the lid after having set the washing machine to PAUSE, provided the following condi­tions exist:
the appliance is not in the heating phase,
the level of the water is not high,
the drum is not turning.
If these requirements are met when you pause the washing machine, the DOOR light goes out and the lid can be opened.
Should it not be possible to open the lid, and should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF button.
After approximately 2 minutes, you can open the lid.
Pay attention to the level and temperature of the water in the washing machine!
We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket.
Leave the lid open in order to air the washing ma­chine.
When you close the lid and press the ON/OFF button again, the washing machine will resume the programme from the point where it had been interrupted.
13 End of programme
At the end of the programme, the washing ma­chine stops automatically.
If you had selected the RINSE HOLD option, the START/PAUSE button light flashes to indicate that the water must be drained (page 8).
The DOOR light goes out at once.
Note:
When you switch the machine on, if you must erase the previously performed programme, it is also sufficient to press the FABRICS button and select a new programme.
Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off. The relevant light will go out.
Remove the laundry from the washing machine.
Check whether the drum is completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry.

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 it hangs securely in place (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. However, if the drain filter is dirty, the FILTER indicator light illuminates. In this case, clean the filter at once.
Open the door, with a scewdriver for example
(fig.6 and fig.7) :
fig.1
fig.3
fig.5
fig.2
fig.4

fig.6
fig.7
To drain the residual water : Place a shallow container beneath the trap door. Turn the filter handle anticlockwise until the filter cap handle is vertical, any residual water will be released (fig.8). To clean the filter : Unscrew the filter anticlockwise and remove (fig.9). Clean the filter carefully under a fast running tap. Replace the filter and refit by screwing in a clockwise direction. Close the trap door.
Never remove the water drain filter during a wash cycle.
Maintenance Wash
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside the drum. We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.
fig.8
fig.9
To run a maintenance wash:
The drum should be empty of laundry.
Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a
powder (such a Ariel Futur).
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, certain precautions should be taken.
Turn off both the water tap.
Unscrew the inlet hose.
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support
and position the end in a bowl. Run the draining programme.
To do this:
- Switch the machine on.
- Select a washing programme.
- Press the SKIP/RESET button three times.
- Press START/PAUSE button.
Disconnect the appliance.
Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain
hose.
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.
