WELCOME SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure your safety and the safety of others, please read the following safety
precautions before you operate your Washing Machine.
Your Washing Machine conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use can,
however, lead to personal injury and damage to property. To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to your Washing Machine, read this user guide carefully before using it for the first
time. It contains important information on the installation, safety, use and maintenance
of your Washing Machine. Retain this user guide for future use and pass it on to any new

WELCOME
Thank you for choosing this Servis Washing Machine, which has been designed and
manufactured to give you many years of trouble-free service.
You may already be familiar with using a similar product but please take time to read these
instructions, which have been written to ensure you get the very best from your purchase.
HydroDrive Technology allows your Washing Machine to offer a rapid 12-minute wash
programme by pumping water and detergent into the drum through two nozzles instead of
the traditional one. This means that you’ll be able to cut energy usage and reduce water
consumption.
Servis provides you with a guarantee which will protect you should your Washing Machine
develop an electrical or mechanical fault during the guarantee period. To ensure that you get a
prompt and efficient service, please register your Washing Machine immediately.
You will find a warranty card included within the packaging. To register, complete the form, or:

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
To avoid risk of injury, please take care when moving your Washing Machine. It is heavy and we
recommend that a minimum of two people move your Washing Machine.
To unpack your Washing Machine and manoeuvre it to the installation area, one person should
hold it by the front feet and the other person at the edge of the lid at the rear.
Your Washing Machine measures 84.5 x 59.7 x 58.2cm and will require an installation area with
the space to allow the door to fully open and provide easy access to the plumbing and electrical
connections.
The most suitable installation surface for your Washing Machine is a concrete floor as it is less
prone to vibration during the spin cycle. Soft floor surfaces such as carpets and rugs are not
suitable.
If you have to install your Washing Machine on a wooden floor, we recommend that a water-
resistant wooden base at least 30mm thick is installed. The base should span several joists and
be bolted down. Check for the presence of pipes and cables before installing.
If possible, install your Washing Machine in the corner of the room as it is often the most stable
part of the floor.
Do not install your Washing Machine in rooms where temperatures below freezing may occur as
frozen hoses may burst or split.
REMOVAL OF TRANSIT BOLTS
The transit bolts are used to protect your Washing Machine from damage during transportation
and must be removed before using your Washing Machine for the first time. Keep the transit
bolts safe and re-fit them if you need to transport your Washing Machine in the future.
The four transit bolts are located on the back of your Washing Machine (fig 5a).
To remove the transit bolts (4 off):
1Remove each bolt by turning anti-clockwise with a suitable spanner (fig 5b).
2Pull out the remaining plastic section of each transit bolt by hand. This will require a
reasonable amount of force (fig 5c).
3Insert the blanking caps (4 off): Push the cap into the hole until the four connectors click into
place. Check that the cap is flush with the machine.
To re-fit the transit bolts (4 off) for future transportation:
1Pull and remove the four plastic blanking caps.
2Insert the plastic sections of the transit bolts into the exposed holes.
3Insert the bolts into the plastic sections of the transit bolts and tighten with a suitable
spanner until secure.

INSTALLATION
ADJUSTING THE FEET
For safe operation, it is important that your Washing Machine is level and securely positioned on
all four feet. Incorrect installation may cause the Washing Machine to vibrate and increase your
water and electricity consumption.
The four adjustable feet are used to level the Washing Machine. To adjust the feet:
1Loosen the plastic locking nut by turning anti-clockwise (fig 6a).
2To increase the height of the machine, turn the feet clockwise (fig 6b).
3To decrease the height of the machine, turn the feet anti-clockwise (fig 6b).
4After making adjustments, use a spirit level to check that the machine is level.
5Once the machine is level, tighten the locking nuts by turning clockwise (fig 6c).
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
Your Washing Machine uses an energy efficient cold fill system, which means that only the
water required to wash the laundry is heated. As a result, no heat is lost in the pipeline from the
hot water supply.
Connect your Washing Machine to your cold water supply only. If your previous machine had a
hot and cold fill, check that the hot tap on your water supply is closed to avoid leakage. Only use
the fill hose supplied and not one from your old Washing Machine. Only one hose is required
to install your Washing Machine to the cold water supply. The inlet hose provided with your
Washing Machine connects the rear of your machine and the cold water supply.
To connect your Washing Machine to the cold water supply:
1Connect the angled end of the fill hose to the cold water inlet on the rear of your Washing
Machine by screwing the threaded connector clockwise (fig 7). Take care not to overtighten
the connection. Hand tight is sufficient.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
2Screw the straight end of the hose clockwise to a 19mm (3/4’’) cold water tap until hand
tight (fig 8). Take care not to trap or kink the hose.
DRAIN HOSE CONNECTION
Do not connect your Washing Machine to a surface water drain.
Connect your Washing Machine to your household drainage system (fig 9).
For your Washing Machine to function properly the outlet end of the drain hose must be at a
minimum of 0cm and a maximum of 100cm from the ground.
CAUTION: Check to ensure that the hose is not trapped, kinked, twisted, folded or crushed.
Do not attempt to extend the drain hose by adding extra sections.

INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your Washing Machine requires a 220-240V, 50Hz mains supply. Do not use any other
supply.
Your Washing Machine may be fitted with a moulded plug, which cannot be rewired.
If the fuse cover becomes damaged, you must not use the plug.
If your plug requires changing because it is not suitable for your socket, or it is damaged,
you should consult a qualified electrician.
Fuse:
Replacement fuses should be ASTA-approved to BS1362 and have the correct 10 Amp
rating.
Replacement fuses can be purchased from an electrical supplier.
The cold water pressure for a normal household system ranges from between 0.1 to 1 Mpa. Your
Washing Machine will run at optimum efficiency in this range.
Once you have made all of the connections, carefully turn your cold water supply on and check
for leaks.

USAGE
Close zips and fasten any hooks and eyes.
Items such as trousers, t-shirts, sweat shirts and knitted garments should be turned inside
out.
Remove any weights from curtains, or place in a laundry bag.
Any loose wiring in bras and shirt collar stiffeners should be removed or sewn in.
Sorting Your Laundry:
Sort your laundry by colour. Always wash whites and coloureds separately.
Dark textiles may contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times
before being included in a mixed load.
Follow the instructions given in the care labels on the clothing.
Do not wash any items in the machine that the manufacturer has specified as non-
washable on the care label.
Badly soiled or stained areas can be pre-treated with liquid detergent or stain removers by
following the manufacturer’s instructions.
If you use a solvent-based cleaning agent to pre-treat a stain, protect any plastic parts such
as buttons. Rinse the cleaning agent off before loading the washing into the machine.
Do not use a solvent-based cleaning agent in your Washing Machine.
Loading the Drum:
1Pull the door open using the handle.
2Load your items of clothing into the drum, ensuring they are loosely packed. You will
achieve better wash results if you mix up large and small items. Items of varying size will
help distribute the load more evenly during spinning.
3Take care not to exceed the maximum load of the drum as this will give poor wash results
and cause creasing. Refer to the table on pages 25 to 30 for information on load capacities.
4Gently push the door until it clicks shut. Check that no items of clothing are trapped
between the rubber seal and the door.
Half-Load Detection System:
Your Washing Machine features a half-load detection system. If you put less than half the
maximum load of laundry into your Washing Machine it will automatically set the half-load
function, regardless of the programme you selected. This means that the selected programme
will take less time to complete and will use less water and energy.
Adding Detergent:
Please take care to add the correct amount of detergent to your Washing Machine.
If too little detergent is added:
Your laundry may not be washed properly and may become grey and stiff over time.
Spots of fat may appear on your laundry.
Limescale may form on the heater elements.
If too much detergent is added:
Excessive foam will be formed resulting in poor wash results.
Water consumption will increase.
You can use any detergent produced for automatic washing machines. The use of dispensing
aids such as balls is recommended, if they are supplied with the detergent.
Tablets are suitable for full loads; however, it may be impractical to reduce them for smaller
loads. Some tablets do not dissolve as quickly as others and may not be suitable for wash cycles
of short duration.

USAGE
If your clothes are only slightly soiled, do not prewash and put a small amount of detergent,
as specified by the manufacturer, into compartment II of the detergent drawer.
If your clothes are excessively soiled, select a programme with pre-wash and put ¼ of
the detergent to be used into compartment I of the detergent drawer and the rest in
compartment II.
Water Softener:
A water softener can be used to reduce the amount of detergent required in hard water areas.
Follow the guidance on the packaging and dispense as instructed. First add the detergent, then
the water softener.
Fabric Conditioners and Liquid Starch:
Fabric conditioners make garments soft to handle.
Starch stiffens and gives body to items such as bed linen.
To add fabric conditioner or liquid starch, pour the amount as instructed on the packaging into
the compartment of the detergent drawer, taking care not to exceed the MAX level.
Selecting a Programme:
To select the desired programme, turn the programme dial either clockwise or anti-clockwise
until the marker on the dial points to the chosen programme. To cancel a programme, refer to the
information on page 35.
Spin Speed Selector:
When you select a programme, the maximum spin speed is automatically selected. To adjust the
spin speed, press the RPM Speed Adjustment button until the desired speed is displayed. The
spin speed of your Washing Machine ranges up to 1400 rpm. Refer to the table on page 32.
Temperature Selector:
When you select a programme, the maximum temperature is automatically selected. To adjust
the temperature, press the water temperature adjustment button until the desired temperature
is displayed on the digital display. Refer to the table on page 31.
Delay Programme Start:
Instead of starting the programme immediately you can set the programme to start
automatically after a set period of time (from 30 minutes to 23 hours). To do so, press the Delay
button once, will appear on the electronic display and the symbol will flash. Press
the Delay button until the desired delay time is displayed, then press any button on the control
panel other than the Start/Pause.

It is possible to use fluid detergents in all programmes without a pre-wash. To do this, slide the
fluid detergent level plate into the guides in compartment II of the detergent drawer (fig 11). Use
the lines on the plate as a guide to fill the drawer to the required level.
The amount of detergent to use will depend on the dirtiness of your clothes and the hardness of
your water supply; guidelines will be on the packaging of your detergent.

Programme Summary:
Your Washing Machine is equipped with 15 pre-set programmes. We have summarised some of
the important information, making it as easy as possible for you to select the most appropriate
programme for your laundry.
Day to day washing: Recommended Programmes: 2, 9, 10, 11 and 12
These programmes are ideal for washing lightly soiled cottons and synthetics as separated
or mixed washes. They often run at lower temperatures and can be used with the majority of
detergents.
Programme 10 (Rapid 12 Min):
The fast wash speed of this programme is made possible by pumping water and detergent into
the drum through two nozzles instead of one. The 12-minute wash is only intended for small
loads and quick refreshes of laundry that is only very slightly dirty; ideal for the freshening up of
a school uniform for example.
Heavily Soiled Washing: Recommended Programmes: 1 and 15
These programmes are ideal for washing heavily soiled cottons and synthetics and are capable
of removing stubborn dirt and stains.
Delicate Washing: Recommended programmes 4, 5 and 6
These programmes are ideal for washing items such as delicate synthetics, wool and silk. Lower
temperatures are used.
You can find detailed information on all washing programmes in the table on pages 25 to 30.
In addition to the programmes listed in the table, the following options are also available. Turn
the programme dial to the selected option once a previously selected programme has finished:
Rinse (Programme 7):
This option is suitable for all types of laundry and provides an extra rinse to your laundry after
the washing process has taken place.
Spin (Programme 8):
This is a useful programme to select when extra spinning is required. We do not recommend this
programme for your delicate or woollen laundry.

USAGE
It can often be difficult to know which temperature setting is best. To help with this, we have
provided a table with common temperatures and their typical uses.
Temperature Typical Use
300C This is the lowest wash temperature that
we recommend. By using a detergent that
can work at this temperature, you’ll save on
water and electricity bills.
400C This is the most common wash temperature,
suitable for most everyday items.
500C This is suitable for most polyester/cotton
mixtures and nylon.
600C This higher temperature is recommended for
heavily soiled garments such as baby clothes
or bed linen and towels.
900CThis is the hottest temperature available on
your Washing Machine and is suitable for
white cottons and linen that show dirt.
Please be aware that the programme setting provides the default temperature for the selected
programme. You can override this setting by decreasing the temperature should you wish.
Spin Selection:
You can select a Spin Speed to meet the needs of your wash. The table below suggests some
typical selection speeds for common types of clothing. Your Washing Machine will automatically
override a Spin Speed if it is not suitable for the selected programme.

Cottons 1400
Delicate 600
Woollens 600
Shirts 600
Denim 800
Dark Garments 1400
You will be pleased to learn that your Servis Washing Machine has an in-built sensor that
prevents your Washing Machine operating with an out-of-balance load; it will make several
attempts to balance the load prior to the spin cycle. If it is not possible for your Washing
Machine to balance the load, your Washing Machine will abort the spin cycle. To reduce the
likelihood of this happening, we recommend that you avoid small wash loads containing items
that could become heavy through water absorption.

To allow you to get the best washing results possible, your Washing Machine offers the
following additional functions to complement the selected programme.
You can select an additional function before starting a programme:
Press the button on the Control Panel below the symbol of the additional function you wish
to select.
If the symbol of the additional function flashes continuously, the function has been
activated.
If the symbol of the additional function blinks, the additional function has not been
selected. This may be because the function is not compatible with the selected programme,
or the Washing Machine has progressed too far into the programme for selection to be
possible.
Easy Ironing - Select this function by pressing the Easy Iron button when
the symbol is displayed. This enables your laundry to be less wrinkled when
the wash is completed.
Soil Level - This allows you to alter the factory settings on some programmes to suit the
dirtiness of your laundry. Press the Soil Level button to select one of the following options:
Less dirty (no pre-washing)
Dirty (apply pre-washing)
Very dirty (apply pre-washing)

Power Supply Failure:
If a power cut should occur while a programme is running, the programme will continue from the
same point once power is restored. This will not cause any harm to your Washing Machine or
laundry.
During a power cut, the door lock mechanism will release after 2 minutes. Do not open the door
if there is water in your machine. If you wish to collect your laundry, drain your Washing Machine
first. Page 40 contains instructions on how to drain your machine.
