leave the appliance, always ensure that

the book is supplied with the appliance in

order that the new owner can get to

know the functioning of the appliance

and the relevant warnings.

• You MUST read them carefully before in-

stalling or using the appliance.

• Before first starting up, check the appli-

ance for any damage incurred during

transport. Never connect up a damaged

appliance . If parts are damaged, contact

your supplier.

• If the appliance is delivered in the winter

months when there are minus tempera-

tures. Store it at room temperature for 24

hours before using for the first time.

General safety

• It is dangerous to alter the specifications

or attempt to modify this product in any

way.

• During high temperature wash pro-

grammes the door glass may get hot. Do

not touch it!

• Make sure that small pets and children

do not climb into the drum. To avoid this,

please check into the drum before using.

• Any objects such as coins, safety pins,

nails, screws, stones or any other hard,

sharp material can cause extensive dam-

age and must not be placed into the ma-

chine.

• Only use the advised quantities of fabric

softener and detergent. Damage to the

fabric can ensue if you over-fill. Refer to

the manufacturer’s recommendations of

quantities.

• Wash small items such as socks, laces,

washable belts etc in a washing bag or

pillow case as it is possible for such

items to slip down between the tub and

the inner drum.

• Do not use your washing machine to

wash articles with whalebones, material

without hems or torn material.

• Always unplug the appliance and turn off

the water supply after use, cleaning and

maintenance.

• Under no circumstances should you at-

tempt to repair the machine yourself. Re-

pairs carried out by inexperienced people

may cause injury or serious malfunction-

ing. Contact your local Service Centre.

Always insist on genuine spare parts.

Installation

• This appliance is heavy. Care should be

taken when moving it.

• When unpacking the appliance, check

that it is not damaged. If in doubt, do not

use it and contact the Service Centre.

• All packing and transit bolts must be re-

moved before use. Serious damage can

occur to the product and to property if

this is not adhered to. See relevant sec-

tion in the user manual.

• 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

against the wall.

• If the machine is situated on a carpeted

floor, please adjust the feet in order to al-

low air to circulate freely under the appli-

ance.

• Always be sure, that there is no water

leakage from hoses and their connec-

tions after the installation.

Use

• This appliance is designed for domestic

use. It must not be used for purposes

other than those for which it was de-

signed.

• Only wash and dry fabrics which are de-

signed to be machine washed or dried.

Follow the instructions on each garment

label

• Do not overload the appliance. See the

Washing Programme Table.

• Before washing, ensure that all pockets

are empty and buttons and zips are fas-

tened. Avoid washing frayed or torn arti-

cles and treat stains such as paint, ink,

rust, and grass before washing. Under-

wired bras must NOT be machine wash-

ed.

• Garments which have been in contact

with volatile petroleum products should

not be machine washed. If volatile clean-

ing fluids are used, care should be taken

to ensure that the fluid is removed from

the garment before placing in the ma-

chine.

• As some duvets and eiderdowns should

be washed/dried in large commercial ma-

chines because of their bulk, please

check with the manufacturer of the item

before washing in a domestic machine.

• The users should always check that they

have not left their gas lighters (disposable

or otherwise) in their clothing.

• Never tumble dry items that have had

contact with chemicals such as dry

cleaning fluid. These are of a volatile na-

ture and could cause an explosion. Only

tumble dry items which have been wash-

ed in water or require airing.

• Plastic detergent dispensers should not

remain in the drum during the drying cy-

cle, as the plastic used is not designed to

withstand the heat. If you wish to wash-

through-to-dry you should use the con-

ventional detergent dispenser drawer.

• Never pull the power supply cable to re-

move the plug from the socket; always

take hold of the plug itself.

• Never use your new appliance if the pow-

er supply cable, the control panel, the

working surface or the base are dam-

aged so that the inside of the appliance is

accessible.

Child safety

• This appliance is not intended for use by

person (including children) with reduced

physical sensory or mental capabilities or

lack of experience and knowledge unless

they have been given supervision or in-

struction concerning use of the appliance

by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the appliance.

• The packaging components (e.g. plastic

film, polystyrene) can be dangerous to

children - danger of suffocation! Keep

them out of children’s reach.

• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of

children’s reach.

• Make sure that children or pets do not

climb into the drum. To prevent children

and pets becoming trapped inside the

drum the machine incorporates a special

feature. To activate this device, rotate the

button (without pressing it) inside the

Helpful hints and tips

Sorting out the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each

garment label and the manufacturer’s

washing instructions. Sort the laundry as

follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, deli-

cates, woollens.

Before loading the laundry

Never wash whites and coloureds 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.

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners,

hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long

tapes.

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 net.

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by

just water and detergent. It is therefore ad-

visable 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 cot-

ton cloth.

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a

rust removing product used cold. Be careful

with rust stains which are not recent since

the cellulose structure 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.

Treat any residual marks 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, moisten

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.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the

choice of detergent and use of the correct

quantities to avoid waste and protect the

environment.

Although biodegradable, detergents contain

substances which, in large quantities, can

upset the delicate balance of nature.

The choice of detergent will depend on the

type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,

etc.), the colour, washing temperature and

degree of soiling.

All commonly available washing machine

detergents may be used in this appliance:

• powder detergents for all types of fabric

• powder detergents for delicate fabrics

(60°C max) and woollens

• liquid detergents, preferably for low tem-

perature wash programmes (60°C max)

for all types of fabric, or special for wool-

lens only.

The detergent and any additives must be

placed in the appropriate compartments of

the dispenser drawer before starting the

wash programme.

If using liquid detergents, a programme

without prewash must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a recirculation

system which allows an optimal use of the

concentrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recom-

mendations on quantities to use and do

not exceed the «MAX» mark in the de-

tergent dispenser drawer.

Quantity of detergent to be used

The type and quantity of detergent will de-

pend on the type of fabric, load size, de-

gree of soiling and hardness of the water

used.

Follow the product manufacturers’ instruc-

tions on quantities to use.

Use less detergent if:

• you are washing a small load

• the laundry is lightly soiled

1) do not use acetone on artificial silk

• large amounts of foam form during wash-

ing.

Degrees of water hardness

Water hardness is classified in so-called

“degrees” of hardness. Information on hard-

ness of the water in your area can be ob-

tained from the relevant water supply com-

pany, or from your local authority. If the wa-

ter hardness degree is medium or high we

suggest you to add a water softener follow-

ing always the manufacturer’s instructions.

When the degree of hardness is soft, read-

just the quantity of the detergent.

Drying Hints

Preparing the drying cycle

As a dryer, the appliance works on the con-

densation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be open

and the drain hose must drain water in-

to a sink or into the drain pipe, even

during the drying cycle.

Attention!

Before starting the drying programme, re-

duce the loads of washed laundry, in order

to obtain good performances.

Laundry not suitable for drying

• Particularly delicate items such as syn-

thetic curtains, woollen and silk, gar-

ments with metal inserts, nylon stock-

ings, bulky garments such as anoraks,

bed covers, quilts, sleeping bags and du-

vets must not be machine dried.

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light col-

oured fluffy items such as towels as

these can attract the 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.

• 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
