injuries suffered by persons or for damage to objects.
To prevent fire and electrical sparking hazards, personal injury, or other dam-
age when using your washer, take the following precautions:
This washing machine iis supplied with a manual which includes operating,
maintenance, and installation instructions. Read all the instructions before using the
the washing machine.
Do not wash articles which have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or treated
with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other inflammable or explosive substances as
they produce vapours that may ignite or explode.
Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other inflammable or explosive
substances to the wash water since they produce vapours which may ignite or
explode.
Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, nor attempt any type of service unless
it has been recommended in the maintenance instructions in the manual.
Do not stand or sit on the machine, or support yourself on the open loading door.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do NOT use an extension lead or adapter
to connect the washing machine to the mains electricity.
The machine must only be used for what it was designed for.
Follow the washing instructions recommended by the manufacturer of the item to be
washed.
Do not start the washing machine until you have made sure that:
• It has been installed according to the installation instructions.
• All the water, drainage, mains and earth connections comply with local
standards and other applicable standards.

Selecting additional functions
Button for selecting additional functions according to programmes.
a) It has 3 options: easy iron, intensive wash, extra
rinse. Press the select button to display to required
option.
b) By clicking several times you can choose between
various combinations, of one, two, and even three
additional functions at the same time, depending on
the chosen programme.
Key: Easy iron
This option reduces the formation of creases in
garments by performing a special programme with
special movements to fluff up the garments after the
spin and make ironing easier.
Key: Extra rinse
This increases the intensity of the final rinse applied to the clothing. This is
recommended for large loads and garments belonging to users with sensitive skin.
Increases water consumption!
Key: Intensive Wash
This option, specially recommended for very dirty or stained garments, gives better
results by lengthening the wash cycle.
Time delay option
Timedelayselection key A delay of up to 24hours
may be selected. The delay must be selected after
choosing the wash programme.
To select the time delay in hours, press the clock
button. Each press delays the start time by one
hour.
Cancelling time delay To cancel the time delay, press the clock button repeatedly.
The delay will be cancelled by reaching 24 hours and then pressing once more.
Changing to another programme also cancels the delay.

Spin selection
The wash options must always be selected after selecting the wash programme. Any
change of programme during the selection annuls the options which had previously
been selected.
a) Spin selection and anti-crease (flot) button
The selected programme has an associated spin
speed in revolutions per minute, as shown on the
screen.
b) This can be modified by pressing the spin button
repeatedly and the spin speed in revolutions will go
down by 100 each time, until 400.
c) Skip spin option
Press the spin button once more to reach the skip
spin option. A programme without a final spin is
used to prevent creases from forming when washing
special fabrics.
d) Flot/anti-crease option
This stops at the final rinse, leaving the clothing
floating in water. When the function is deactivated,
the washing machine continues the programme,
draining and spinning. This is used when you are
not at home, for example, to delay the spin until you
have arrived so that creases are not caused by the
clothes being spun and then left in the drum.

3.1.2.- V3 and V4 circuit configuration
If the circuit is not configured it will go into status as soon as it is plugged in (go to
step no. 7) If the circuit is configured it enters the current configuration. To change the
configuration, follow these steps:
1.- Turn the machine off
2.- Press the start / pause button and keep it pressed (until step 5)
3.- Press the button for 1 second until the LCD screen lights up
4.- Press the spin button and wait 2 seconds until the letter is displayed on
the LCD screen
5.- Release all keys simultaneously
6.- The door lock will be locked
7.- Press the spin button (the last digit of the LCD will flash).
8.- Pressing the CLOCK button changes the parameter to be adjusted, starting with
the KG digit and following the sequence KG – RPM – RECIRCULATION – HOT
WATER – DOOR OPENING – KG….
Pressing the SPIN button changes the value of the parameter; the possible values
are limited to the circuit’s hardware reference and the selected KGs.
If the KGs are changed after having selected the RPM and the previous RPM value is
not permitted for the newly selected KGs, the RPM will re-adjust to the value closest
to the newly selected KGs.

“SinTraficoEnBus==1”)
from the power board for more than 10 seconds, or if it is continually receiving LINK messages but not data
(no status
messages. (Can be checked in the BMF by its meaning “TramaDatosATratar==0”) for more than 10
seconds, the fault F12 will be displayed.
- Power board: If the power board is continually sending LINK messages to the display board for more than
10 seconds (the master can recognise and check the BMF variable “EtadoLinkNodos”), the F12 fault is
then displayed and should be activated in the master. If the power board receives a correct message from
the display board (Link_Response or Data) the F12 fault is reset
In version V1 nothing happens
In versions V3 and V4 the washing machine stops

See BMF document
‘- Display Board: Ihe fail and the related 10sec timer have to be
reset when a correct data frame (identification or status frame) is

IMBALANCE
(C03) If an imbalance is detected when it makes 18 attempts to spin or during 15 minutes of
attempts
The washing machine spins at the lowest speed The fault is reset in the following manner:
