Your New Washing Machine  
Your new washing machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry  
with low water, energy and detergent consumption.  
Even small loads are washed “economically” because the amount of water used is regulated  
automatically according to the load and type of fabric.  
Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C  
In the interest of the  
before draining, with the 95°C programme. This  
reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent  
creasing.

Materials marked with the symbol  
recyclable.  
are  
The special wool programme with its new delicate  
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.  
Check with your local Council or Environmental  
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area  
for re-cycling this appliance.  
The balance control device ensures that the  
washing machine remains stable when spinning.  
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.  
Ecological hints  
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.  
Normally soiled laundry may be washed without  
prewashing in order to save detergent, water and  
time (the environment is protected too!).  
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.  
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.  
Measure out detergent according to the water  
hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of  
laundry being washed.  
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”.

Description of the Appliance  
This new machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and  
detergent consumption.  
The possibility of selecting the temperature and all the options offered by this washing machine gives you truly  
“customised” washing.  
• The automatic cooling of the washing water from 95° to 60°C before draining reduces thermal shock to fabrics,  
helping to prevent creasing.  
The ECO valve allows total use of detergent and reduces water consumption so saving energy.  
The balance control device prevents vibration during spinning.

Pay attention to the level and temperature of the  
water in the washing machine!  
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

The relevant light will go out.  
Remove the laundry from the washing machine.  
13. End of programme  
At the end of the programme, the washing machine  
stops automatically and gives an audible signal.  
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.  
If you had selected the “Rinse Hold option, the light of  
the “Start/Pause” button goes off, the phase indicator  
lights “Rinse Hold”and “End” illuminate to indicate that  
the water must be drained.  
We advise you to close the water supply tap and  
disconnect the plug from the socket.  
To complete the cycle, first press “Skip/Reset” button  
and then choose one of the following options:  
Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.  
Drain only:  
- Press FABRICS button in order to select the desired  
programme and press 3 times “Skip/Reset” button  
until the “Drain” light illuminates. Then depress  
“Start/Pause” button.  
• Drain and Spin:  
- Choose the previously selected programme by means  
of the FABRICS button, afterwards change the spin  
speed if needed, by means of the “Spin” button and  
then press “Skip/Reset” button twice until the ‘Spin”  
light goes on and then depress “Start/Pause”button.  
When the programme has been completed the audible  
signal is given.  
Press the “Skip/Reset” button repeatedly to erase the  
programme that has just been carried out. If you  
omit to do this, the next time you switch the washing  
machine on, you will hear the audible signal.

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.

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.  
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.  
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.  
WHITES  
We recommend the Ariel product  
range which is biological and  
designed to provide excellent  
cleaning and stain removal even  
at low temperatures.  
, start  
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.  
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  
These are ideal for improving ‘softness’, and also  
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing  
easier. They are available in two types:  
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.  
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.

Important Notes  
For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for  
dispensing detergents and liquid additives.  
Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by pushing it  
in gently. This is particularly important if you are using  
fabric conditioner to avoid the conditioner entering the  
machine prematurely.  
When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme,  
place the detergent into the correct compartment in the  
dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.

Maintenance and Cleaning  
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must

should be removed.  
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.  
C0067  
C0066  
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.  
C0068  
P1086  
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.  
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.  
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 soap and  
water only, and then dry thoroughly.  
P0038  
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.  
Cleaning the pump  
The pump should be inspected if  
• 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.  
Proceed as follows:  
• Disconnect the appliance.  
• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.  
• Open the pump door.  
16  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
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.  
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.  
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump  
cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry  
up spillage of water when removing the cover.  
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.  
P1115  
P1090  
Remove any objects from the pump impeller by  
rotating it.  
The dangers of freezing  
If the machine is installed in a place where the  
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as follows:  
Remove the plug from the socket.  
Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose  
from the tap.  
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.  
• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and  
place the latter back in its seat.  
Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the  
emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on  
again.  
By doing this, any water remaining in the machine is  
removed, avoiding the formation of ice and,  
consequently, breakage of the affected parts.  
When you use the machine again, make sure that the  
ambient temperature is above 0°C.  
P1117  
• Screw the pump cover fully in.  
• Close the pump door.

Important!  
Emergency emptying out  
If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to  
empty out the machine:  
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 special programme “Drain”.  
• pull out the plug from the power socket;  
• close the water tap;  
To do this :  
• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;  
• open the pump door;  
depress the “On/Off” button  
on;  
to switch the machine  
select a programme by means of the FABRICS  
button;  
• 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;  
depress “Skip/Reset” button  
the “Drain’ light remains lit;  
three times until only  
depress “Start/Pause button  
.
This will activate the ECO valve allowing a total use of  
the detergent in the next wash.  
• 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.

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.  
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.  
During machine operation it is possible that the “End” light starts to flash and at the same time an acoustic signal will  
sound:  
- 1 flash: problem with the water supply  
- 2 flashes: problem with water draining  
- 4 flashes: door open  
Once the problem has been eliminated, press the START/PAUSE button

Symptom  
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 “Start/Pause” button has not been depressed.  
The water tap is closed.  
The machine does not fill  
The filter in the inlet hose is blocked.  
The inlet hose may be squashed or kinked.  
The door has not been closed.  
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 “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.  
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 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 pump.  
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/temperature has not been selected.  
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.

Symptom  
Possible causes  
The machine vibrates when spinning  
The internal packing has not been removed.  
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.  
The machine is not level and stable (check diagonally).  
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.  
The door will not open  
The water level is above the bottom edge of the door.  
The machine is heating the water.  
The drum is turning.  
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 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.  
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.  
Before calling out an engineer, please ensure you have  
read the details under the heading “Something Not  
Working”.

Water inlet  
Water drainage  
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed  
into your home's drainage system using one of the  
following methods.  
Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread.  
Always use the hose supplied with the appliance to  
connect to the water supply.  
1. Into a drainage standpipe.  
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using  
the “U” piece” suppl3ied.  
P1088  
Installation should comply with local water authority  
and building regulations’ requirements.  
U” piece  
supplied  
P1199  
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.  
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.  
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.  
38 mm (11.2”)  
standpipe  
diameter  
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.  
P1200  
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.

If your drain hose looks like this (see below) you do not  
require the “U” piece”. Just push the hose firmly into  
the standpipe.  
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 (check diagonally).  
P1212  
P1051  
2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.  
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.  
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and  
displacement of the machine during operation.  
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove  
any blanking plug that may be in place.  
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.  
P1197  
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.  
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.  
Warning  
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile  
carpeting.  
Loop  
Note  
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is  
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a  
breakdown.  
P1198  
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.  
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.
