Before loading the laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together.
Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the
wash.
New coloured items may run in the first wash;
they should therefore be washed separately
the first time.
Make sure that no metal objects are left in
the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins,
pins). Button up pillowcases, close zip
fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts
or long tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special
detergent or detergent paste.

dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
special detergent then rub in the soap and
water.

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 up
again, make sure that the room temperature
is above 0°C.
●
●
Remove any objects from the pump impeller
by rotating it.
Put the cap back on the emergency emptying
hose and place the latter back in its seat.
●
●
●
●
Screw the pump cover
fully in.
Close the pump door.
IMPORTANT!
Every time you drain the water through the
emergency emptying hose you must pour 2
litres of water into the main wash compartment
of the detergent drawer and then run the drain
programme. This will activate the ECO VALVE
device avoiding that part of the detergent
remains unused at next washing.
IMPORTANT!
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the pump.
Emergency emptying out
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.
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 pump 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;
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.
●
●
●
clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
replace the emergency emptying hose in its
seat after having plugged it;
screw the pump cover again and close the
door.

Malfunction
Possible Cause / Solution
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
• Wait about 2 minute.
The door will not open:
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the
water.
The transit bolts and packing have not been
removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted.
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
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 10 minutes, the laundry is still not
evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not
spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and
select the spin programme.
Spinning starts late or the machine
does not spin:
●
Redistribute the laundry.
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which
makes an unusual noise compared with other
traditional motors. This new motor ensures a softer
start and more even distribution of the laundry in the
drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of
the machine.
The machine makes an unusual noise
No water is visible in the drum
Machines based on modern technology operate very
economically using very little water without affecting
performance.
If you are unable to identify or solve the
problem, contact our service centre.
Before telephoning, make a note of the model,
serial number and purchase date of your
machine: the Service Centre will require this
information.

Installation instruction
Transit security bars
Before starting the machine up, the transport
security bars must be removed as follows:
You are advised to keep all the transport
security bars. In case the appliance has to be
transported again.
5. Plug the 3 holes with the plastic plugs which
you can find in the envelope containing the
instruction booklet.
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. Level the washing machine by
raising or lowering the feet. Once in the right
position fix the feet by pushing the nuts against
the base of the case. The feet may be tight to
adjust as they incorporate but the machine
MUST be level and stable.

by means of a key.
2. Lean the appliance back on the rear and fit
one of the polystyrene angles between the
appliance and the floor.
Make sure the hoses are not squashed.
If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and
displacement of the machine during
operation.Never place cardboard, wood or
similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the floor.
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.
3. Carefully remove the plastic bags on the left
and the right, pulling them to the centre of
the appliance.
4. Place the machine in an upright position
and remove the three plastic bolts.

Water inlet
The appliance must be connected to a cold
water supply.
There should be a COLD WATER tap near the
washing machine with a screwing on
connection pipe of 3/4" for the water supply, a
sink, a wash basin or a drainage system in the
wall.
Previously check if:
- it is not a hot water tap.
- the running water is clean. If not, run off a
reasonable amount of water to flush out any
debris that may have collected in the pipes.
Have the permanent drainage system in the
wall checked by a plumber.
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.

1. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread. Always use the hose supplied with
the appliance. The inlet hose must not be
lengthened. If it is too short and you do not
wish to move the tap, you will have to
purchase a new, longer hose specially
designed for this type of use.
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.

avoid leaks. (Open the tap and assure that
it does not leak and close it again.)
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 90
cm (35.4'') and no less than 60 cm (23.6'')
above floor level.
