Carefully read this manual for correct and
safe appliance use and for helpful tips on
efficient maintenance.
Only use the washing machine
after carefully reading these instructions.
We recommend you always keep this
manual on hand and in good condition for
any future owners.
Please check that the appliance is delivered
with this instruction manual, warranty
certificate, service centre address and
energy efficiency label. Also check that
plugs, drain hose support hook and liquid
detergent or bleach tray (only on some

keep all these components.
Each product is identified by a unique 16-
character code, also called the “serial

found inside the door opening. This code is
a unique code for your product that you will
need to register the product warranty, or if
you need to contact the Customer Service
Centre.
This appliance is marked according to
the European directive 2012/19/EU on
Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which
can cause negative consequences for the
environment) and basic components (which can
be re-used). It is important to have WEEE
subjected to specific treatments, in order to
remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can
play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does
not become an environmental issue; it is essential
to follow some basic rules:
WEEE should not be treated as household
waste;
WEEE should be handed over to the relevant
collection points managed by the municipality or
by registered companies. In many countries, for
large WEEE, home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance,
the old one may be returned to the retailer who has
to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis,
as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and
has the same functions as the supplied equipment.

6
The final part of a washer dryer
cycle occurs without heat (cool
down cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at a temperature
that ensures that the items will
not be damaged.
After installation, the appliance
must be positioned so that the
plug is accessible.
The appliance must not be
installed behind a lockable
door, a sliding door or a door
with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the washer dryer,
in such way that a full opening
of the washer dryer door is
restricted.
The maximum load capacity of
dry clothes depends on the
model used (see control panel).
The appliance is not to be used
if industrial chemicals have
been used for cleaning.
Do not dry unwashed items in
the washer dryer.
Items that have been soiled with
substances such as cooking oil,
acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene,
spot removers, turpentine, waxes
and wax removers should be
washed in hot water with an extra
amount of detergent before being
dried in the washer dryer.
Items such as foam rubber
(latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles and rubber
backed articles and clothes or
pillows fitted with foam rubber
pads should not be dried in the
washer dryer.
Fabric softeners, or similar
products, should be used as
specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such
as a washer dryer. The items
become warm, causing an
oxidation reaction in the oil,
Oxidation creates heat. If the
heat cannot escape, items can
become hot enough to catch
fire. Piling, stacking or storing
oil-effected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so
create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics
contain vegetable or cooking oil
or have been contaminated
WARNING:
Never stop a washer dryer before
the end of the drying cycle
unless all items are quickly
removed and spread out so that

PRACTICAL TIPS
WARNING: when sorting laundry, make
sure:
- have eliminated metallic objects such as
hair clips, pins, coins, from laundry;
- to have buttoned pillow cases, closed zips,
tied loose belts and long robe ribbons;
- to have removed rollers, hooks or clips from
curtains;
- to have carefully read clothing washing
labels;
- to have removed any persistent stains
using specific detergents.
When washing rugs, bedcovers or other
heavy clothing, we recommend you avoid the
spinning cycle.
To wash wool, make sure the item can be
machine washed and marked by the “Pure
virgin wool” symbol with the “Does not mat”
or “Machine washable” label.
A guide environmentally friendly and
economic use of your appliance.
Maximise The Load Size
Achieve the best use of energy, water,
detergent and time by using the
recommended maximum load size.
Save up to 50% energy by washing a full
load instead of 2 half loads.
Do you need to pre-wash?
For heavily soiled laundry only!
SAVE detergent, time, water and between
5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT
selecting Prewash for slight to normally
soiled laundry.
Is a hot wash required?
Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak
dried in stains in water before washing to
reduce the necessity of a hot wash
programme.
Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C
wash programme.
Before using a drying programme…
SAVE energy and time by selecting a
high spin speed to reduce the water
content in laundry before using a drying
programme.
Following is a
quick guide
with tips and
recommendations on
detergent use at the
various temperatures
. In any case, always
read the instructions on the detergent for
correct use and doses.

MAINTENANCE AND
CLEANING
To clean the washing machine exterior, use
a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol
and/or solvents. To maintain a good wash
performance we recommend that the soap
drawer and pump filters are regularly
cleaned. A monthly service wash, using a
proprietary cleaner is also recommended.
We recommend you clean the drawer to
avoid accumulating detergent and additive
residue.
To do this, extract the drawer using slight
force, clean it with running water and
reinsert it in its housing.
Ensure the siphon cap is correctly
refitted.
The washing machine comes with a
special filter able to trap large residue,
such as buttons or coins, which could clog
the drain.
Only available on certain models: pull out
the corrugated hose, remove the stopper
and drain the water into a container.
Ensure all the water has been emptied
from the drum.
Before unscrewing the filter, we
recommend you place an absorbent cloth
under it to keep the floor dry. A small
amount of water will come out of the filter
as you remove it - this is normal.
Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the
limit stop.
Remove and clean the filter; when
finished, replace it turning it clockwise. The
filter handle will be locked when it is not
possible to turn any further and the handle
is horizontal. Smearing a small amount of
liquid soap on the filter seal will help
refitting.
Repeat the previous steps in reverse
order to reassemble all parts.
Should the washing machine be stored in
an unheated room for a long period of time,
drain all water from tubes.
Unplug the washing machine.
Detach the tube from the drainage
system and clip on the rear of the machine
and lower it, fully draining water into a
bowl.
Secure the drain tube with the drainage
system and clip on the rear of the machine
when finished.
Keep the door glass and gasket clean.
