• All packing and transit bolts must
be removed before use. Serious
damage can occur to the product
and to property if this is not adhered
to. See relevant section in section
"Unpacking".
• After having installed the appliance,
check that it is not standing on the
inlet and drain hose and the worktop
is not pressing the electrical supply
cable.
• If the appliance is installed on a
carpeted floor, please adjust the feet
in order to allow air to circulate freely.
• Always be sure, that there is no
water leakage from hoses and their
connections after the installation.
• Any plumbing work required to install
this appliance should be carried out
by a qualified plumber.
• Any electrical work required to install
this appliance should be carried out
by a qualified electrician.
• Only wash fabrics which are designed
to be machine washed. Follow the
instructions on each garment label.
• Do not overload the appliance. See
the relevant section in the user manual.
• Before washing, ensure that all pockets
are empty and buttons and zips are
fastened. Avoid washing frayed or torn
articles and treat stains such as paint,
ink, rust, and grass before washing.
• Garments which have been in contact
with volatile petroleum products
should not be machine washed. If
volatile cleaning fluids are used, care
should be taken to ensure that the fluid
is removed from the garment before
placing in the machine.
• Never pull the power supply cable
to remove the plug from the socket;
always hold the plug itself.
• Never use the machine if the power
supply cable, the control panel, the

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• As some duvets and eiderdowns
should be washed/dried in large
commercial machine because of
their bulk, please check with the
manufacturer of the item before
washing/drying in a domestic machine.
• The users should always check that
they have not left their gas lighters,
and matches (disposable or otherwise)
in their clothing.
• Never tumble dry items which have
had contact with chemicals such as
dry cleaning fluid. These are of volatile
nature and could cause an explosion.
Only tumble dry items which have
been washed in water or require airing.
• Plastic detergent dispensers/capsules
should not remain in the drum during

dry clean solvents. Also, do not use
laundry enhancement products during
the drying cycle.
6 ENGLISH
1.6 Electrical Connection
Check that your domestic electrical
installation can take the maximum load
required from technical data, also taking
into account any other appliances in use.
When the appliance is installed, the
power supply cable must be easily
accessible.
WARNING!
May cause electric shock! if the
machine is not connected to an
earthed/ground system. DO NOT touch
the wet clothes and metal parts.
For safety reasons do not use double
adapters, extension cords and multi-
plug adapters.
CAUTION!
Connect the machine to an earthed
socket outlet.
The manufacturer declines any
responsibility for damage or injury
through failure to comply with the
above safety precaution.
Should the appliance power supply
cable need to be replaced, this shall be
carried out by our Service Centre.
"An incorrect power supply may void
your warranty."
To minimize the risk of fire in a washer-
dryer, the following should be observed:
• Items that have been spotted or
soaked with vegetable or cooking oil
constitute a fire hazard and should not
placed in a washer-dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such as in
washer-dryer.
The items become warm, causing an
oxidation which creates heat.
If the heat cannot escape, the items
can become hot enough to catch fire.
Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected
items can prevent heat from escaping
and so create a fire hazard.
• If it is unavoidable that fabrics contain
vegetable or cooking oil or have been
contaminated by hair care products
be placed in washer-dryer, it should
first be washed in hot water with extra
detergent - this will reduce, but not
eliminate the hazard.
• The "cool down" cycle of washer-dryer
is used to reduce the temperature of
the items. It should not be removed
from the washer-dryer or piled or
stacked while hot.
• Items that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in
or spotted with petrol/gasoline, dry
cleaning solvents or other flammable
or explosive substances should not be
placed in washer-dryer.
• Highly flammable substances
commonly used in domestic
environments include acetone,
denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline,
kerosene, spot removers (some
brands), turpentine, waxes, and wax
removers.
• Items containing foam rubber (also
known as latex foam), similarly
textured rubber, or materials e.g.
shower caps, waterproof textiles,
rubber-backed articles, and clothes or
pillows fitted with foam rubber pads
should not be dried in a washer-dryer
on a heat setting.
• Foam rubber materials can produce
fire by spontaneous combustion when
heated.
• Fabric softeners or similar products
should not be used in a washer-
dryer to eliminate the effects of
static electricity unless this practice
is specifically recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
• Undergarments that contain metal
reinforcements should not be placed
in a washer-dryer.
• Damage to the washer-dryer can
result if metal reinforcements come
loose during drying. When available
a drying rack could be used for such
items.
• Plastic articles such as shower caps,
babies’ waterproof napkin covers
should not be placed in washer-dryer.

13.1 Sorting The Laundry
13.2 Temperatures
Follow the wash code symbols on each
garment label and the manufacturer’s
washing instructions. Sort the laundry
as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics,
delicates, woollens.
Temp Soil level
90°C
For normally soiled
white cottons and linen
(e.g. teacloths, towels,
tablecloths, sheets...).
60°C
50°C
For normally soiled, colourfast
garments (e.g. shirts, night
dresses, pyjamas...) in linen,
cotton or synthetic fibres and
for lightly soiled white cotton
(e.g. underwear).
40°C
30°C
Cold
For delicate items (e.g. net
curtains), mixed laundry
including synthetic fibres and
woollens bearing the label
pure new wool, machine
washable, non-shrink.
13.3 Before Loading The Laundry
• Make sure that
no metal objects
are left in the
laundry (e.g.
coin, hair clips,
safety pins, pins).
• Button up
pillowcases, close
zip fasteners,
hooks and
poppers. Tie any
belts or long
tapes.
• Wash bras, pantyhose
and other delicates in
a mesh laundry bag,
which you can
purchase from your
supermarket.
• Make sure that you
wash lint collectors separately from lint
producers.
• Never wash whites and coloured
fabrics 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.
• Remove persistent stains before
washing.
• Rub particularly soiled areas with a
special detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care.
Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag
or a net.
13.4 Maximum Loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
programme chart on page 17.
General rules:
Clothes
Load
Quantity
Cotton,
linen
drum full but not too tightly
packed;
Synthetics drum no more than half full;
Delicate
fabrics and
woollens
drum no more than one
third full.
Washing a maximum load makes the
most efficient use of water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the
load size.
13. WASHING HINTS
ENGLISH 35
13.5 Removing Stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by
just water and detergent. It is therefore
advisable to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water.
For dried stains, soak overnight in water
with a special detergent then rub in the
soap and water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine
stain remover, lay the garment on a soft
cloth and dab the stain; treat several
times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpen-
tine, lay the garment on a soft surface
and dab the stain with the fingertips and
a cotton cloth.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water
or a rust removing product used in cold
water. Be careful with rust stains which
are not recent since the cellulose struc-
ture will already have been damaged
and the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well
(whites and fast coloureds only). Grass:
soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites
and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with
acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft
cloth and dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone (*) as
above, then treat stains with methylated
spirits. Remove any residual marks from
white fabrics with bleach.
Red wine: soak in water and detergent,
rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid,
then rinse. Treat any residual marks with
bleach.
Ink: depending on the type of ink, mois-
ten the fabric first with acetone (*), then
with acetic acid; treat any residual marks
on white fabrics with bleach and then
rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover,
methylated spirits or benzine, then rub
with detergent paste.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
13.6 Detergents Type And Quantity
Of Detergent
Low suds detergent is required for this
machine to prevent over suds problems,
unsatisfactory washing result and harm to
the machine.
Low suds detergents designed for front
load washing machines are labelled
"Front Loading", "High Efficiency", "HE",
such as Cold Power for Front Loaders or
"Matic".
Do not use wrong types of detergent,
such as Top Loading, Hand wash deter-
gent or Soap-Based products in your
front load washing machine. This can
result in excessive suds, longer cycle
time, low spin speeds, poor rinsing and
overloading of the motor.
Quantity of detergent to be used
The choice of detergent and use of cor-
rect quantities not only affects your wash
performance, but also helps to avoid
waste and protect the environment.
Although biodegradable detergents con-
tain substances which in large quantities
can upset the delicate balance of nature.
The choice and quantity of detergent will
depend on ;
• type of fabric (delicates, woollens,
cottons, etc.);
• the colour of clothes;
• size of the load;
• degree of soil;
• wash temperature ; and
• hardness of the water used.
Water hardness is classified by so-called
"degrees" of hardness.
Information on hardness of the water in
your area can be obtained from the rele-
vant water supply company, or from your
local authority.
You may have to try using the detergent
quantity as per manufacturers’ instruc-
tions then compare the wash result to
the list below and adjust the amount of
detergent for your future washes accord-
ingly.
36 ENGLISH
Not enough detergent causes:
• the wash load to turn grey,
• greasy clothes.
Too much detergent causes:
• over suds,
• reduced washing effect,
• inadequate rinsing.
14. DRYING HINTS
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load,
• the laundry is lightly soiled,
• large amounts of foam during
washing.
• Particularly delicate items such as
synthetic curtains, woollen and silk,
garments with metal inserts, nylon
stockings, bulky garments such as
anoraks, bed covers, quilts, sleeping
bags and duvets must not be machine
dried.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light
coloured fluffy items such as towels as
these can attract fluff.
• Remove the laundry when the
appliance has finished drying.
• To avoid a static charge when drying
is completed, use either a fabric
softener when you are washing
the laundry or a fabric conditioner
specifically for tumble dryers.
14.1 Preparing The Drying Cycle
14.2 Laundry Not Suitable For
Drying
14.3 Garment Labels
As a dryer, the appliance works on
condensation principle.
Therefore, the water tap must be open
and the drain hose must drain water into
a sink or into the drain pipe, even during
the drying cycle.
For drying, follow the indications given
on the manufacturer’s labels:
= May be tumble dried.
= Drying at medium temperature.
= Drying at reduced temperature.
= Do not tumble dry.
Before starting the drying
programme. Make sure the load size
does not exceed the maximum drying
capacity of the machine. In order to
obtain good performances. (Refer to
section 6.1)
If using liquid detergents, a
programme without prewash must be
selected
14.4 Drying Cycle Duration
The drying time may vary depending on:
• speed of the final spin;
• dryness level required (Extra dry,
Cupboard dry, Iron dry);
• type of laundry;
• weight of the load.
• Garments padded with foam-rubber or
materials similar to foam-rubber must
not be machine dried; they represent a
fire hazard.
• Also, fabrics containing residue of
setting lotions or hair sprays, nail
solvents or similar solutions must not
be machine dried to avoid formation
of harmful vapours.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments
of the dispenser drawer before starting
the wash programme.

avoid creasing of fabrics or garments
shrinking.
38 ENGLISH
16.1 External Cleaning
16.2 Descaling
Clean the appliance only with soap and
warm water. Fully dry all the surfaces.
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.
16. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
You must DISCONNECT the appliance
from the electricity supply, before
you can carry out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol, solvents or
chemical products.
16.3 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.
16.5 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.

To aid cleaning, the top part of the
additive compartment should be
removed.
16.4 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 Cottons programme.
• Press Start/Pause to start the
programme.
ENGLISH 39
WARNING!
Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
Do not remove the filter while the
appliance is operating. Do not clean
the drain pump if the water in the

cold before you clean the drain pump.
Regularly examine the drain pump
and make sure that it is clean.
Flush it out under a tap to remove any
traces of accumulated powder.
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.
16.6 Cleaning The Drawer Recess
16.7 Cleaning The Pump
Clean the pump if:
• The appliance does not drain the
water.
• The drum cannot turn.
• The appliance makes an unusual noise
because of the blockage of the drain
pump.
• The display shows an alarm code
