Cautions

452511
In removing the wrapping be careful not to damage the
appliance with a sharp object.
Before connecting the appliance, let it warm up to room
temperature (wait for two hours).
• Our appliances are packed in environmentally friendly
materials which may be recycled, deposited or decomposed
without any threat to the environment.
• To this end all wrappings are marked accordingly.
• Move the pipes.
• Loosen screws (A) at the rear of the machine (Fig. 1).
• Remove the brackets (B) (Fig. 1) and slide them into the
groove on the blocking rod (Fig. 2) - the right one should be
turned around.
• Use the brackets to rotate blocking rods for 90° and pull them
out.
• Close the openings with attached plastic pegs.
Save transport brackets for eventual later use.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Be sure to remove the transport brackets prior first use,
otherwise the appliance may be permanently damaged.
In such cases the warranty conditions are void.
• Put the appliance in horizontal position by turning the
adjustable legs. The legs are adjustable up to +/- 1 cm.
After the adjustment tighten the nuts firmly (A) - towards
the bottom of the machine!
Vibrations, moving of the appliance and loud operation
due to incorrect setting of the adjustable feet shall not
be covered by this warranty.

Installation and connection

452511
• If you have a tumble dryer of the same dimensions, you can
place it on top of the washing machine.
To ensure correct operation of the appliance, water
pressure inlet must be between 0,05 and 0,8 MPa.
Minimum water pressure can be established by measuring
the quantity of poured out water. 3 litres of water must be
poured out from completely opened tap in 15 seconds.
• Take the water inlet hose from the drum and attach the inlet hose
angle extension (1) to the washing machine by screwing it onto
the provided thread (certain models only).
• Insert the gasket with a filter net into the straight inlet hose
attachment nut (2) and screw the nut onto the water tap. (With
some models, the gasket with filter net is already fitted and any
additional fitting into the nut on the straight attachment is not
required).
• If your model has connections for both hot and cold water, then
connect one hose to the cold water supply (blue wing nut or blue
mark on the hose) and the other one to the hot water supply (red
wing nut or red mark on the hose), as indicated on the back wall
of the appliance (letters C and H) (C - cold; H – hot).
The inlet hose should be tightened manually, firmly
enough to prevent any leaks. After tightening the hose,
check for any leaks.
Use of pliers, wrenches, or other similar tools is not
allowed when installing the hose, as these tools can
damage the nut thread.
Partial Aqua-stop (water stop system)
In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by
automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine. In
such cases display A turns red.
Inlet pipe must be replaced.
Complete Aqua-stop (certain models only)
In case of damage on the interior pipe, leaking is prevented by
automatic closing system which stops water inlet to the machine.
Security system also detects whether there is any water leakage
within the interior of the machine. In such cases washing is
suspended, machine switches on the pump and signals error.
Do not immerse the Aqua-stop system inlet pipe into the
water, because it contains the electric valve!
Water inlet connection

452511
• Fix the outlet hose to run into the sink or the bathtub, or
connect it directly to the wall drain outlet (diameter min. 4 cm).
• Wall drain must be installed properly and must enable
occasional cleaning.
• Fasten the outlet hose support with a piece of rope led through
the hose elbow, to prevent the hose from slipping to the floor.
The end of outlet hose should be placed between minimum 60
cm and maximum 100 cm above the floor level.
• Plug the mains power cable to the wall mains socket.
• Required voltage and other information are written on the
rating plate above the door opening of the machine.
The wall socket must be accessible at all times and
must be equipped with an earth lead (in accordance
with the local safety regulations).
The permanent connection must be fitted by an
authorized personnel only.
Damaged mains power cable may be replaced only by
the producer or his authorized personnel.

Tips for washing and energy saving

452511
• High spin RPM leave less moisture in laundry which dries out
much quicker in the tumble dryer, thereby saving energy.
Do not put clods of detergent into the soap dispenser
as the tube in the washing machine may clog.
Disconnect the washing machine from the mains
before cleaning!
• The casing should be cleaned with soft cloth and mild
detergent.
• The interior of the drum and the door gasket is cleaned by
washing at 60°C without laundry and adding half quantity of
detergent.
• Frequent, or predominant, washing at low temperatures, using
liquid detergents, may result in development of bacteria which
causes odor in the washing machine.
To prevent this, we recommend running the auto-clean
program occasionally (see chapter “OPERATION / selecting
additional functions”).
• If necessary, clean the detergent dispenser. Pull it out from its
casing completely by pressing the flap (see Fig.).
• If necessary, clean the cover of the bung under the running
water.
16
Cleaning and maintenance

452511
• Wash it under running water using a brush, and dry it. Remove
any leftover dried detergent from the bottom of the casing.
• Clean the entire rinsing area of the washing machine with a
brush, especially the nozzles on the upper side of the rinsing
chamber.
• Clean frequently the water inlet hose screen under running
water.
• After each wash wipe the door rubber gasket. This will prolong
its useful life.
• Open the filter lid using flat screwdriver or similar tool.
• Filter needs occasional cleaning, especially following heavily
shaggy or old laundry.

Washing machine controls the operation of particular functions during washing. If irregularities
are detected, the fault is signaled by displaying a message (Fx) on the display, and by rhythmical
flashing of the LEDs. The machine signals the fault as soon as it is detected, and the program
progress is paused. If the fault is in the heating system, the machine completes the washing
program, but without the heating function.
If the fault is signaled during washing machine operation, the error code and remaining washing
time are indicated alternately on the display.
The fault is indicated until the washing machine is turned off.
Failures:
2 - Two flashes: door is not correctly closed
3 - Three flashes: inappropriate water intake
7 - Seven flashes: inappropriate water outlet.
In these cases, you will be able to remedy the failure by yourself (See Troubleshooting table).
1 - One flash: temperature sensor failure
4 - Four flashes: spinning sensor failure
5 - Five flashes: motor failure
6 - Six flashes: Heater failure
In these cases, turn off the machine, then turn it back on and repeat the program. If the failure
reoccurs, contact your nearest authorized service center. The LEDs will continue to flash until the
machine is turned off.
• Carefully turn the filter insert in anticlockwise direction and let
the water slowly drain; then remove the filter and clean it under
running water.
• Insert the filter back as shown on the picture, and tighten by
turning it in clockwise direction. To ensure good sealing the
gasket surface (A) must be dirt free.
18
Troubleshooting

452511
Various interferences from the environment (e.g. electric devices) may also cause the machine to
signal faults. In such case:
- turn off the appliance and wait a few seconds;
- turn on the appliance and repeat the washing program.
If the fault reoccurs, call the service center.
The warranty does not cover faults caused by interference from the environment (lightning strike,
