Keep this instruction anual in a safe place for
future reference. Should the appliance be sold,
transferred or oved, ake sure the instruction
anual acco panies the washing achine to infor
the new owner as to its operation and features.
Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital
infor ation on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Unpack the washing
achine.
2. Check whether the
washing achine has
been da aged during
transport. If this is the
case, do not install it
and contact your
retailer.
3. Re ove the four
protective screws and
the rubber washer with
the respective spacer,
situated on the rear of
the appliance (see
figure).
4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you will need the again if the
washing achine needs to be oved to another
location.
Warning: should the screws be re-used, ake sure
you fasten the shorter ones at the top.
Packaging aterials are not children's toys.
Levelling
1. Install the washing achine on a flat sturdy floor,
without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets
or other.
2. If the floor is not
perfectly level, co pen-
sate for any unevenness
by tightening or
loosening the adjustable
front feet (see figure); the
angle of inclination,
easured according to
the worktop, ust not
exceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with
stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting
during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose
carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow
enough roo for ventilation beneath the washing
achine.
Putting your appliance in place and moving it.
If your washing achine
is equipped with a special
set of retractable wheels
you can easy ove it.
To lower the wheels and
thus ove the appliance
effortlessly, just pull the
lever, situated on the left-
hand side beneath the
base. Once the
appliance is in the
required position, put the lever back in place. The
washing achine is now fir ly in place (see figure).
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Insert seal A into the
end of the inlet hose and
screw the latter onto a
cold water tap with a 3/4
gas threaded outh (see
figure).
Before aking the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until it
is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other end
of the water inlet hose to
the washing achine,
screwing it onto the
appliance's cold water
inlet, situated on the top
right-hand side on the rear
of the appliance
(see figure).
3. Make sure there are
no kinks or bends in the hose.
The water pressure at the tap ust be within the

Connecting the drain hose
Connect the drain hose,
without bending it, to a
draining duct or a wall
drain situated between
65 and 100 c fro the
floor;
alternatively, place it
over the edge of a
basin, sink or tub,
fastening the duct
supplied to the tap (see
figure). The free end of
the hose should not be
underwater.
 We advise against the use of hose extensions; in
case of absolute need, the extension ust have the
sa e dia eter as the original hose and ust not
exceed 150 c in length.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the ains socket,
ake sure that:
 the socket is earthed and in co pliance with the
applicable law;
 the socket is able to sustain the appliance's
axi u power load indicated in the Technical
details table (on the right);
 the supply voltage is included within the values i
ndicated on the Technical details table
(on the right);
 the socket is co patible with the washing
achine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the
socket or the plug.
 The washing achine should not be installed in an
outdoor environ ent, not even when the area is
sheltered, because it ay be very dangerous to
leave it exposed to rain and thunderstor s.
 When the washing achine is installed, the ain
socket ust be within easy reach.
 Do not use extensions or ultiple sockets.
 The power supply cable ust never be bent or
dangerously co pressed.

Setting the temperature
Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash te perature (see Programme table on page 6).
The te perature can be lowered, or even set to a cold wash ( ).
Setting the spin speed
Turn the SPIN SPEED knob to set the spin speed for the progra e selected.
The axi u spin speeds for each progra e are as follows:
Programmes Maximum spin speed
Cottone 800 rp
Synthetics 800 rp
Wool 600 rp
Silk no
The spin speed can be lowered, or the spin cycle can be excluded altogether by selecting sy bol .
The washing achine will auto atically prevent you fro selecting a spin speed higher than the axi u speed for
each progra e.
 To avoid excessive vibrations, before every spin cycle the achine distributes the load in a unifor anner by
continuously rotating the dru at a speed which is slightly faster than the nor al washing speed.
When, despite repeated atte pts, the load is still not evenly distributed, the achine spins at a lower speed than the
set frequency.
If the load is excessively unbalanced, the achine atte pts to distribute it instead of spinning.
The balancing atte pts ay extend the total duration of the cycle, up to a axi u of 10 inutes.
Functions

Precautions and advice
ServiceTroubleshootingPrecautions CareProgrammes DetergentsInstallation Description
 The washing achine was designed and built in
co pliance with the applicable international safety
regulations. The following infor ation is provided for your
safety and should consequently be read carefully.
General safety
 This appliancen has been designed for non-profes-
sional use and its function ust not be changed.
 This washing achine should only be used by
adults and in accordance with the instructions
provided in this anual.
 Never touch the washing achine when barefoot
or with wet or da p hands or feet.
 Do not pull on the power supply cable to unplug
the appliance fro the electricity socket. Pull the
plug out yourself.
 Do not open the detergent dispenser while the
appliance is in operation.
 Do not touch the drain water as it could reach
very high te peratures.
 Never force the washing achine door: this could
da age the safety lock echanis designed to
prevent any accidental openings.
 In the event of a alfunction, do not under any
circu stances touch internal parts in order to
atte pt repairs.
 Always keep children well away fro the
appliance while in operation.
 The appliance door tends to get quite hot during
the wash cycle.
 Should it have to be oved, proceed with the
help of two or three people and handle it with the
ut ost care. Never try to do this alone, because
the appliance is very heavy.
 Before loading your laundry into the washing
achine, ake sure the dru is e pty.
Disposal
 Disposing of the packaging aterial:
observe local regulations, so the packaging can
be re-used.
 Disposing of an old washing achine:
before scrapping your appliance, cut the power
supply cable and re ove the appliance door.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Environmentally-friendly technology
If you only see a little water through your appliance
door, this is because thanks to the latest Ariston
technology, your washing achine only needs less
than half the a ount of water to get the best
results: an objective reached to respect the
environ ent.
Saving on detergent, water,
energy and time
 To avoid wasting resources, the washing achine
should be used with a full load. A full load instead
of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on
energy.
 The pre-wash cycle is only necessary on
extre ely soiled gar ents. Avoiding it will save on
detergent, ti e, water and between 5 and 15%
energy.
 Treating stains with a stain re over or leaving
the to soak before washing will cut down the
need to wash the at high te peratures. A
progra e at 60°C instead of 90°C or one at
40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on
energy.
 Use the correct quantity of detergent depending
on the water hardness, how soiled the gar ents
are and the a ount of laundry you have, to avoid
wastage and to protect the environ ent: despite
being biodegradable, detergents do contain
ingredients that alter the natural balance of the
environ ent. In addition, avoid using fabric
softener as uch as possible.
 If your laundry has to be dried in a tu ble dryer,
select a high spin speed. Having the least water
possible in your laundry will save you ti e and
energy in the drying process.

10
GB
Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water or electricity
supply
 Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will
li it the wear of your appliance's water syste
and also prevent leaks.
 Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and
during all aintenance operations.
Cleaning your appliance
The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can
be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewar
soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
Re ove the dispenser by raising it and pulling it out
(see figure).
Wash it under running water; this operation should
be repeated
frequently.
Caring for your appliance door and
drum
 Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent
unpleasant odours fro for ing.
Cleaning the pump
The washing achine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pu p that does not require any aintenance.
So eti es, s all ite s (such as coins or buttons)
ay fall into the pre-cha ber that protects the
pu p, situated in the lower part of the sa e.
To recover any objects that have fallen into the pre-
cha ber:
1. re ove the plinth at
the botto on the
front side of the
washing achine by
pulling fro the side
with your hands (see
diagra ); (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid
rotating it anticlock-
wise (see figure): a
little water ay trickle
out. This is perfectly
nor al;
3. clean the interior
thoroughly;
4. screw the lid back
on;
5. reposition the panel,
aking sure the hooks
are securely in place
before you push it onto
the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If
you see any cracks, replace it i ediately: during
the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and
a cracked hose could easily split open.
 Never use hoses that have already been used.
 Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug
the appliance.
