READ THE INSTRUCTIONS
Attention!
You are advised to read all the instructions in this manual carefully; it will
inform you
about the right conditions for the proper, safe use of your washer-dryer
It is very important to keep this instruction manual with the appliance for future ref-
erence.
In the event of sale or transfer, ensure that the manual always accompanies th
e
appliance, to provide the necessary information about its use.
1. PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY AND USE
Attention!
These precautions are detailed for reasons of safety.
This section must be read carefully before installation and use.
Disposing of packaging
 Never leave packaging residues unattended in the home. Separate waste
packaging materials by type and consign them to the nearest recycling cen-
tre.
 Packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) must not be left within
reach of children.
Disposing of old appliances
 Once no longer in use, appliances must be rendered unusable: perma-
nently disarm the lock on the door (this will prevent children risking
their lives by locking themselves inside during play) and cut the power
supply lead after removing the plug from the socket.
The appliance must be delivered to a recycling facility.
Environmental protection
 Use the whole of the maximum recommended capacity. Never exceed the
maximum permitted load.
 Do not use the prewash function for lightly or normally soiled items.
 Follow the manufacturer's recommendations on detergent usage.
 Use the highest spin speed permitted for the fabric type. Fast spins reduce
the drying time and thus energy consumption.
 Programs that work with lower temperatures are the most efficient in terms
of energy consumption. We therefore recommend that you to make a note
of the information on the labels on the items to be washed and provided
by the manufacturer. This will mean that the temperatures and detergent
doses will be optimized to avoid excessive energy consumption.
 It is recommended to follow the instructions provided in the manual, and
those provided by the manufacturers of the detergents, softeners and ad-
ditives (solvents, degreasers, stain remover additives…) for their correct
use and dosage. Failure to comply with the recommendations provided
may damage the appliance.

EN

 WARNING: the higher the spin speed, the higher will be the noise and the
lower the remaining moisture content. The lower the amount of residual
moisture at the end of the wash, the lower the energy consumption will be
during drying.
 Information on household detergents, additives and cleaning agents can
be found on the following website www.cleanright.eu .

Warning!
 Do not wash unhemmed or torn items as they may fray.
 Unrelated items in the wash may damage the garments or parts of the washer-dryer. So: empty pockets and
turn them inside-out, and remove wheels from curtains or wrap them in a mesh bag.
 Wash very small items (belts, handkerchiefs, socks, padded bras, etc.) in a white canvas bag. Fasten press-
studs and zips and sew on loose buttons.
 The use of modern detergents and the correct washing temperature is generally sufficient to remove stains
from fabrics. However, some difficult stains such as grass, fruit, egg, blood, rust, ballpoint pen, etc. should be
dealt with before washing. Depending on the type of fabric, there are a large number of commercial stain
removers on the market. In all cases, stains should be cleaned or diluted at once, since the older they
are, the harder they are to remove.
 Failure to comply with washing guidance symbols may result in damage to the items washed.
Wool – Only wool marked as pure new wool, with the mark, or labelled "shrink-proof, machine-washable" can
be washed in a washing machine on the specific programme; other types of wool should be hand-washed or dry-
cleaned.
4.2 OPENING THE DOOR
The appliance is fitted with a safety device which prevents the door from being opened while the programme is in
progress.
1. Check that all the water has been drained from the tank and the drum is at a standstill.
Warning!
 If the washing programme is interrupted, it will be from 3 to 15 minutes before the door can be opened,
depending on the temperature reached inside the appliance.
Warning!
The water may still be boiling hot if the wash was at high temperature.
Do not open the door if there is still water in the drum!
4.3 LOADS OF WASHING
As far as possible, to save electricity, it is more economical to wash complete loads of the various types of
fabric. Shake out the laundry before loading, and alternate large and small items. It is best to weight the load the
first few times, after which you will be able to rely on your experience.

EN
14
4.4 LOADING THE ITEMS FOR WASHING
1. Open the door and load the laundry, distributing it evenly over the drum, with items opened out and not
bundled together; if possible, large and small items should be well mixed.
2. The washing machine covered by this manual can be loaded with up to 7kg of laundry for each wash. If
this weight is exceeded, the washing results will be poor and the appliance may malfunction.
3. To save energy it is more economical to wash full loads of the various types of fabric, following the
guidance on quantities provided in the "Programmes Table" supplied in this manual.
4. Close the door by pressing against the frame until you hear it click shut. Take care not to trap items of
laundry between the door and the rubber gasket.
Warning!
 If the door is not properly closed, a safety device prevents the washer-dryer from starting.
 Do not exceed the maximum load: overloading adversely affects washing results.
4.5 ADDING DETERGENT AND ADDITIVE
The internal tray comprises three compartments, marked with the symbols
prewash detergent
main wash detergent
for fabric conditioner, starch, additives, etc. (e.g. treatment products). The additives are added to
the washing tank automatically during the final rinse.
The main wash detergent compartment has a tang allowing the use of liquid detergent. To insert it, pull it towards
the front and then lower it.
Following the recommendations in the "Programmes Table"
supplied with this manual, place the detergent and any addi-
tives in the drawer before the start of the programme.
Never fill with liquids above the maximum level marked; otherwise
the trays will empty too quickly.
Before pouring dense additives into the container, dilute with a little
water to ensure they do not clog the outlet.
Use only low-foam detergents suitable for use in a washer-dryer.
The amount of detergent must be decided in relation of the hard-
ness of the water, the type and quantity of items loaded, and their
degree of dirt.
This will provide the desired effect with optimal detergent consumption.
On detergent packs the recommended dose is indicated for 4 levels of water hardness and for loads of 4-5 kg of
laundry with average dirt levels.
Request information about the water's hardness from your water supply company.
Water hardness
Level of hardness French degrees fH German degrees dH
Soft Up to 15° Up to 8°
Medium 15° - 25° 8° - 14°
Hard 25° - 40° 14° - 22°
Very hard More than 40° More than 22°

EN

Warning!
 If no recommended doses are provided, for delicate items in synthetic fibre use from ½ to 2/3 of the recom-
mended dose for washing tough cotton fabrics.
 Only neutral detergents recommended for wool should be used on the wool programme.
 Use the doses recommended by the detergent producer.
4.7 LIQUID DETERGENT DOSES
1. Pour the dose required into the measuring cap supplied with the bottle of liquid detergent and place it in the
drum, or use the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer, fitting the insert provided.
2. The scale on the red insert is intended as an aid when deciding the dose of liquid detergent.
Warning!
 Liquid detergents can be used, at the doses recommended by the producer, only for the main wash, i.e. in
all programmes without prewash.
4.8 DESCALERS
Descalers can be added to the prewash and main wash compartments as recommended by their producers.
Place the detergent in the compartments first, followed by the descaler.
