the adjustable feet .
Particular care must be taken
when selecting the position, lev-
elling the washing machine and
ensuring the safety of lock nuts.
If levelling is not carried out cor-
rectly, the washing machine will
be unstable and noisy during op-
eration,which may result in dam-
age.

INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Attention: Before running the ma-
chine loaded for the first time, we
re-commend that you run a short
washing cycle with the machine
empty.
Thismakes itpossible to check op-
eration of the machine and clean
the drum.
Each time you use the machine:
▼check that all water connec-
tions are tight,the drain hose is
positioned correctly (see con-
nection to the water supply)
and the supply tap is open.
▼make sure that your hands
are dry, then insert the plug

N.B. When filling the detergent
compartment it is important that
the detergent does not overflow
into the compartment used for
fabric softener,as this would result
in a rinse cycle containing soap,
which might leave the washing
with white stains.
Equally, do not allow the fabric
softener to overflow into the deter-
gent compartment, as this would
reduce the cleaning capacity.
IF THE MODEL HAS A LIQUID DETERGENT COMPARTMENT
N.B. When using liquid detergent
(recommended for programs that
do not use the pre-wash cycle),
insert the special container (if
there is one) in centre compart-
ment ”2” (as shown opposite),
then pour in liquid detergent up to
the maximum level indicated.
Remember to remove the liquid
detergent compartment when
using powder detergent.
▼close the detergent drawer
before starting the wash.
Attention! Never remove the de-
tergent drawer when the machine
is running,as water may come out
of it.
Some stains cannot be removed
by just washing in a washing ma-
chine.
Before trying to remove any type
of stain by hand, first try the re-
moval procedure on a small area
of hidden fabric starting from the
edge of the stain and working in-
wards,this will prevent a dark ring
fromforming aroundthesiteofthe
stain.

NO-SPIN BUTTON:
Pushing this button the washing machine carries out a normal wash cycle but does not
spin.
HALF-LOAD BUTTON:
Pressing this button reduces the quantity of water used during the wash, thus saving both
water and energy.
Use this function when the quantity of items to wash is equal to half the maximum
recommended load (see table "Maximum recommended loads")
EXTRA RINSE BUTTON:
Thewashing machinehasbeen designedtoreducewaterconsumption toaminimum. Three
rinse cycles are normally sufficient. For very soft water zones or for those who are allergic
to detergent residues, press this button and the machine will carry out an extra rinse.
550/MAX SPIN SPEED BUTTON:
Push the button to vary the speed of the spin-dryer from maximum to minimum (the spin-
dryer’s maximum speed varies depending on the model). If the machine has a speed
adjustment knob, rotate until the desired speed is reached.
Warning: This is only available during intensive wash programmes. For delicates and wool, the spin speed is 550 rpm regardless
of the speed setting.
TEMPERATURE LIMIT BUTTON:
Pushing this button will limit the temperature to 60°when the temperature dial is set at a
higher temperature.

WASHING PROGRAMMES
USINGTHE MACHINE
STARTINGTHE MACHINE:
VARIABLE SPIN:
The washing machine has a wide selection of spin speeds that can be selected before starting the wash
programme. To change the speed, simply rotate knob (H) to the value required. To select the no-spin function,
rotate the knob to position .
NB. Themaximumspinspeed(MAX)willvaryaccordingtothemachinemodel and that reported in the technical
characteristics table. The maximum selectable speed for each programme is indicated in the programme table
(if a higher spin speed is selected, the machine will only effect a spin at the value indicated in the table).
Spin load imbalance control:
This washing machine is equipped with a special electronic control system for correctly balancing the wash
load.
Prior to each spin, the system ensures that the washing is evenly distributed in the drum. If the washing is not
evenly distributed, the final spin speed is reduced, and if the load is very unbalanced, the spin is not effected.
