Your New Washing Machine

Your new washing machine, which is fitted with the Jet System, meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

●

The special Handwash programme with their new delicate wash system treats your delicate items with extreme care.

●

The special Wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.

●

The automatic cooling of the washing water from 95° to 60°C before draining will prevent old drain pipes from being deformed.

●

The balance control device ensures the machine is stable during the spin.

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.

●

The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.

●

With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature, so saving energy.

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.

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".

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. We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket. Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.

Washing Hints

Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the first few times you use the appliance.

The average weights of the most common items are listed below as a guide:

1000g = 1 kg

Sheet 700-1000 g

Pillow case 100-200 g

Tablecloth 400-500 g

Serviette 50-100 g

Tea towel 70-120 g

Linen hand towel 100-150 g

Towelling hand towel 150-250 g

Towelling bath towel 700-1000 g

Bath robe 1000-1500 g

Man’s shirt 200-300 g

Apron 150-200 g

●

Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with small ones.

●

Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour-fastness and how dirty it is.

●

Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may unravel.

●

Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws etc) as these could damage the drain pump.

●

When washing curtains, remove the hooks.

●

Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.

●

It is essential to wash new coloured items separately when washing for the first time.

●

When washing fabrics requiring different wash temperatures together, always select the lowest temperature.

●

White items should not be washed with coloured items.

●

Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc) should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.

●

Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic washing machines.

●

Use the correct quantities of detergent.

●

For wool, use gentle detergent only in small quantities.

●

Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care and kept out of reach of children.

●

Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are difficult to remove and should be treated before washing with specific products, which can be found in most household shops. In some cases it may help to soak the stain before washing with a special presoak product or biological detergent.

●

Only wool marked “Pure New Wool - washable, preshrunk” can be washed in the machine using the wool programme; other types of wool should be washed in HANDWASH programme.

●

If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.

●

Once you have finished using the machine, you are advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap.

And in which form?

Not only are there different types of detergent, but they are also available in different forms. Whether you chose a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is your own 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 . Follow the 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.

Which detergent?....

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.

COLOURS

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 colours.

Wash Care Symbols

Wash care labels inside garments recommend how to launder your clothes with the best results. The care labelling code is in line with care labelling used in the rest of Europe. The symbols used make it easy to select the correct programme on your washing machine.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply.

Descaling

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.

After each wash

Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance. Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to preserve the door seal.

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.

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 as Ariel Futur).

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with mild washing up liquid and water only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer

The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.

Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder. To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment should be removed.

Cleaning the drawer recess

Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess. Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme without any clothes in the drum.

Cleaning the filter

The water drain filter

A clean filter is important for the correct operating of the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every washing programme.

Open the filter door by pulling it towards the right. Place a container under the filter to catch any spillage.

Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container, and remove its cap by unscrewing it.

P1086

C0068

P0038

P1220

P1221

P1062

Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it, screwing it fully in.

Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose, place the latter back in its seat. Close the filter door.

Warning

When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot water in the pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.

Cleaning the water inlet filter

If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.

It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time. Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose. Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.

Tighten up the inlet hose.

P1090

P0040

P1061

P1060

The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, certain precautions should be taken.

●

Turn off the water tap.

●

Unscrew the inlet hose.

●

Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor and let water drain out.

●

Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on again.

●

When you intend to start the machine again, make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to empty out the machine:

• pull out the plug from the power socket;

• close the water tap;

• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;

• open the filter door;

• place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out;

• clean the filter if necessary as previously described;

• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after having plugged it;

• screw the filter cover again and close the door.

Something Not Working

Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Force Centre, please carry out the checks listed below.

During machine operation it is possible that one of the following messages appear on the display and at the same time an acoustic signal will sound:

• Problem with the water supply: “No incoming water. Check tap & hose”

• Problem with water draining: “No drain. Check drain hose /filter”

• Door open: “Door not closed. Please check”

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the Start/Pause button to restart the programme. If after all checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Centre.

IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or

installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.

Symptom

The machine does not start

Possible causes

●

The door has not been closed. (“Door not closed. Please check”)

●

The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket.

●

There is no supply at the socket

●

The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown.

●

A washing programme has not been selected by pressing the corresponding two buttons.

●

The delay start has been selected.

The machine does not fill

●

Ensure the water tap is open. (“No incoming water. Check tap & hose”)

●

The filter in the inlet hose is blocked. (“No incoming water. Check tap & hose”)

●

The inlet hose may be squashed or kinked. (“No incoming water. Check tap & hose”)

●

The door has not been closed. (“Door not closed. Please check”)

The machine fills then empties immediately

●

The end of the drain hose is too low.

●

The end of the drain hose is submerged in water.

●

There is no vent in the end of the drain hose.

The machine does not empty and/or does not spin

●

The drain hose may be squashed or kinked.

●

The option , or No Spin “0” has been selected.

●

The drain filter may be blocked.

●

The drain hose extension, if fitted, is not correct. Follow the instructions for connecting to the waste.

●

The drainage system pipes are blocked.

●

The wash load is unbalanced: redistribute the clothes inside the drum to allow the machine to spin.

There is water on the floor

●

Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates too much foam).

●

Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see if it is damp.

●

The drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned.

●

The detergent dispenser drawer or recess is clogged.

●

The drainage system pipes are blocked.

●

The cap on the emergency emptying hose has not been replaced after cleaning the filter.

Symptom

The door will not open

Possible causes

●

The programme is still running.

●

The door lock has not yet released.

●

Water in the tub: the door cannot be opened if water is present in the tub.

The door can only be opened only when “Door openable” message appears in the dispaly and the door locked light has gone off.

Spinning starts late or the machine does not spin

●

The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 6 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and reselect the spin programme.

No water is visible in the drum

●

Machines based on modern technology operate very economically using very little water without affecting performance.

Repeat the operation for the right polythene bag, removing it towards the left and then upwards. Remove the polystyrene base.

Set the machine upright and unscrew the remaining rear screw. Slide out the relevant pin.

Fill all the holes with the plastic plugs supplied with the instruction booklet.

Important !

You are advised to keep all the packaging for re-use in case the machine is to be transported again. In case of moving the same precautions as per paragraph “The dangers of freezing” must be taken i.e. the residual water in the hoses must be pumped out.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or other kitchen units. Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any unevenness in the floor.

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 tap with the drain hose discharging into a sink.

The appliance has one inlet hose, with female 3/4” BSP thread connector. 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.

Installation on a Suspended Floor

Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible to vibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor beams with screws. If possible install the appliance in one of the corners of the room, where the floor is more stable.

Water inlet

Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread. Do not use previously used hoses for water connection.

Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulations’ requirements.

The appliance must be connected to a cold water supply.

A minimum water pressure of 0.05 MPa (0.5 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 (16.5 ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the water storage tank.

Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

Water drainage

This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed into your home's drainage system using one of the following methods.

1. Into a drainage standpipe.

Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using the “U” piece” supplied.

Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should have an internal diameter of approximately 38mm thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.

When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top of the standpipe is no more than 90cm (35.4'') and no less than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level.

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 Force Centre. The joining piece must have an internal diameter of 18mm.

P1039

If your drain hose looks like this (see below) you do not require the “U” piece”. Just push the hose firmly into the standpipe.

2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.

If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove any blanking plug that may be in place.

Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a clip if required, ensure a loop is formed in the drain hose (see diagram) to prevent waste from the sink entering the washing machine.

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.

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 and stable.

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 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.

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.
