The programme progress display shows the  
washing phase, the end of the programme and  
indicates that the door can be opened.  
Check with your local Council or Environmental  
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area  
for re-cycling this appliance.  
The special wool programme with its new delicate  
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.  
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.  
The ECO VALVE allows total use of detergent and  
reduces water consumption so saving energy.  
Eco logical hint s  
To save water and energy and help protect the  
environment, we recommend that you follow these  
hints:  
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised  
disposal sites for your old appliance.  
How do we help to protect the environm ent?  
We use recycled paper!  
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.  
Im p o r t ant  
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".

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.  
Man’s shirt  
Apron  
Once you have finished using the machine, you are  
advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap.  
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.

And in w hich fo r m ?  
Which d et ergent ?....  
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.  
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.  
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  
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.  
WHITES  
We recommend the Ariel product  
range which is biological and  
designed to provide excellent  
cleaning and stain removal even  
at low temperatures.  
, start  
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.  
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.  
COLOUREDS  
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.  
* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,  
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed  
before carrying out a drying programme.  
DELICATE ITEMS  
FABRIC CONDITIONERS  
When washing delicates such as  
woollens, you should use a product  
which is specially designed to care for  
fine fabrics.  
These are ideal for improving ‘softness’, and also  
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing  
easier. They are available in two types:  
Dreft Automatic is suitable for  
woollens and other delicates.  
For example Lenor liquid fabric  
softener, for use in the washing  
machine/washer dryer. The  
liquid fabric softener should be  
poured into the compartment  
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 coloureds.  
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.

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  
P1143  
P1142  
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.  
Cleaning t he d rawer 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.  
Aft er 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.  
Maint enance 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.  
P0038  
To run a maintenance wash:  
Cleaning t he p u m p  
The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly  
if  
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).  
• the machine does not empty and/or spin  
• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining  
due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking  
the pump.  
Ex t er nal cleaning  
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap  
Proceed as follows:  
• Disconnect the appliance.  
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.  
• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.  
• Open the pump door.  
Cleaning t he d isp enser d rawer  
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.  
P1114  
• Place a container close to the pump to collect any  
spillage.  
• Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the  
container and remove its cap.  
18  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump  
cover and remove it. Always keep a cloth nearby to  
dry up spillage of water when removing the cover.  
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.  
Tighten up the inlet hose.  
P1090  
P1115  
The d anger s o f freezing  
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,  
certain precautions should be taken.  
Remove any objects from the pump impeller by  
rotating it.  
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.  
• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and  
place the latter back in its seat.  
When you intend to start the machine up again,  
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.  
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 avoiding that part of the detergent remains  
unused at next washing.  
P1117  
• Screw the pump cover fully in.  
• Close the pump door.  
Em ergency em p t ying o u t  
If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to  
empty out the machine:  
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.  
• 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;  
Cleaning t he wat er inlet filt er  
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime  
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.  
• clean the pump if necessary as previously described;  
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.  
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.  
• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after  
having plugged it;  
• screw the pump cover again and close the door.

Som ething 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 the “end” light flashes to indicate that the machine is not working. An  
acoustic warning signal is also heard.  
• 4 flashes / 4 beeps = door open  
• 2 flashes / 2 beeps = the water is not drained  
• 1 flash / 1 beep = there is no water filling  
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.  
Sym ptom  
Possible causes  
The machine does not start  
The door has not been closed.  
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.  
The selector dial is not correctly positioned and the “start pause”  
button has not been depressed.  
Ensure the water tap is open.  
The filter in the inlet hose is blocked.  
The inlet hose may be squashed or kinked.  
The door has not been closed.  
The machine does not fill  
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 fills then empties  
immediately  
The machine does not empty and/or  
does not spin  
The drain hose may be squashed or kinked.  
The “rinse hold”option has been selected.  
The drain pump 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.  
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates too  
There is water on the floor  
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.  
Unsatisfactory washing results  
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. An  
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and  
causes lime scale to form.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing  
The correct wash programme has not been selected.  
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.

Sym ptom  
Possible causes  
The internal packing has not been removed.  
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.  
The machine is not stable and level (check diagonally).  
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.  
The machine vibrates when spinning  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.  
The programme is still running.  
The door lock has not yet released (the “door” light is still on).

tub.  
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the  
Spinning starts late or the machine  
does not spin  
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 5 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.  
The machine makes an unusual  
noise  
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.  
No water is visible in the drum  
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically  
using very little water without affecting performance.

debris that may have collected in the pipes.  
For a correct functioning of the machine the drain  
hose must be hooked on the proper support piece  
situated on the top of the back side of the appliance.  
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.
