Spin
Each wash cycle has a pre-dened spin speed. To modify the spin speed,
press the button.
Push & Go
To start the Push & Go cycle press and hold the relative button for 2
seconds. The lit indicator light indicates that the cycle has started.
This wash cycle is ideal for cotton or synthetic fabrics, as it washes at a
temperature of 30°C and a maximum spin speed of 1.000 rpm. Max load
3,5 kg (cycle duration 45’).
How does it work?
1. Load the laundry (cotton and/or synthetic garments) and close the door.
2. Pour the detergent and additives.
3. Start the cycle by pressing and holding the Push & Go button for 2
seconds. The relevant indicator light will turn green and the door will
lock (the symbol lights up).
N.B.: starting the wash cycle through the Push & Go button activates an
automatic non-customisable cycle recommended for cotton and synthetic
fabrics. This cycle does not allow for setting any additional options.
To open the door while an automatic cycle is under way, press the START/
PAUSE button; if the locked door symbol is o, the door may be
opened. Press the START/PAUSE button again to restart the cycle
from the point at which it was interrupted.
4. Once the programme is nished, the indicator light turns on.
CHILD LOCK
to activate the control panel lock, press and hold the button for
approximately 2 seconds. The lit symbol signals that the control
panel is locked. This prevents wash cycles from being modied
accidentally (except for the ON/OFF button), especially if there are
children in the home. To deactivate the control panel lock, press and hold
the button for approximately 2 seconds.
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
Divide the laundry according to:
Type of fabric (cotton, mixed bres, synthetics, wool, garments to be
hand-washed). Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash new
coloured garments separately). Delicates (small garments – such as nylon
stockings – and items with hooks – such as bras: insert them in a fabric bag).
Empty the pockets:
Objects such as coins or lighters can damage the washing machine and
the drum. Check all buttons.
Follow the dosage recommendation / additives
It optimizes the cleaning result, it avoids irritating residues of surplus
detergent in your laundry and it saves money by avoiding waste of
surplus detergent
Use low temperature and longer duration
The most ecient programmes in terms of energy consumption are
generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
Observe the load sizes
Load your washing machine up to the capacity indicated in the
“PROGRAMME CHART” table to save water and energy.
Noise and remaining moisture content
They are inuenced by the spinning speed: the higher the spinning
speed in the spinning phase, the higher the noise and the lower the
remaining moisture content.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Before performing cleaning and maintenance, switch the washing machine
o and disconnect it from the mains power. Do not use ammable liquids to
clean the washing machine. Clean and maintain your washing machine
periodically (at least 4 times per year).
Disconnect the water and power supplies
Close the water tap after every wash. This will limit wear on the hydraulic
system inside the washing machine and help to prevent leaks.
Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and during all
maintenance work.
Clean the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using
a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
The washing machine has a “Auto-clean” cycle for its internal parts; it
must be run without any load in the drum.
To optimise this cycle, it is possible to use either detergent (10% of the quantity
specied for lightly soiled garments) or special additives to clean the washing
machine. We recommend running a cleaning cycle every 40 wash cycles.
To start the cycle press buttons and simultaneously for 5 seconds.
The cycle will start automatically and will run for about 70 minutes. To
stop the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button.
Clean the detergent dispenser drawer
Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated
frequently.
Care for the door and drum
Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant
odours from forming.
Check the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If it is cracked or broken, it
must be replaced: during wash cycles, the high pressure of the water
could suddenly split the hose open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
Cleaning the water lter / draining residual water
Switch o and unplug the washing machine, take out the kitchen plinth
before cleaning the water lter or draining residual water. The kitchen
plinth must be mounted back all the time once the cleaning operation is
over. If you used a hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled
down before draining any water. Clean the water lter regularly, to avoid
that the water cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the lter.
If the water cannot drain, the display indicates that the water lter may
be clogged.
1 . Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.
2 . Remove, pulling it out, the “emergency drain hose” from the base
of the washing machine .
Remove the stopper of the “emergency drain hose” at the end of the
hose and let the water ow into the container.
3 . Turn the exhaust lter handle and pull it out of the housing .
When the container of plinth is full with water, plug the stopper to the
hose end, and reinsert the small hose in the washing machine’s base .
After, empty the container .
Afterwards rmly close the emergency drain hose with the stopper .
4. Remove lter: Lay a cotton cloth beneath the water lter, which can
absorb a small amount of rest water . Then remove the water lter by
turning it out anticlockwise .
5 . Clean the water lter: remove residues in the lter and clean it under
running water .
6 . Insert the water lter: Reinsert the water lter again by turning it in
clockwise direction . Make sure to turn it in as far as it goes; the lter
handle must be in vertical position . To test water tightness of the water
lter, you can pour about 1 liter of water into the detergent dispenser .

Then reinstall the kitchen plinth.
LOAD BALANCING SYSTEM
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin and
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously
at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine
spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the
washing machine performs the distribution process instead of spinning.
To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
Do not lift the washing machine by gripping it from the upper section.
Unplug the appliance and close the water tap. Check that the door and
detergent dispenser drawer are tightly closed. Detach the lling hose
from the water tap then detach the drain hose. Empty all the water
remaining in the hoses and secure the latter so that they do not get
damaged during transport. Apply the transport bolts back on. Repeat, in
reverse order, the transport bolt removal procedure described in the
“Health & Safety and Installation Guides”.
