Your New Washing Machine
Your new washing machine, which is fitted with the New Jet System, meets all modern
requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent
consumption.
●The special Handwash and Silk programme with
their new delicate wash system treats your delicate
items with extreme care.
●The special Wool programme with its new delicate
wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.
●The automatic cooling of the washing water from
90° to 60°C before draining will prevent old drain
pipes from being deformed.
●The balance control device ensures the machine is
stable during the spin.
Ecological hints
To save water and energy and help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
hints:
●Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the
hardness of your water supply, the amount of
laundry and the degree of soiling.
●A programme without prewash is sufficient for
normally soiled laundry.
●The machine works more economically if it is fully
loaded.
●With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be
washed at a lower temperature, so saving energy.
In the interest
of the environment
●Materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.
●Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area
for re-cycling this appliance.
●When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door lock device
unusable to prevent young children from being
trapped inside.
●Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
The symbol on the product or on its packaging
indicates that this product may not be treated as
household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to
the applicable collection point for the recycling of
electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this
product is disposed of correctly, you will help
prevent potential negative consequences for the
environment and human health, which could
otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling
of this product. For more detailed information about
recycling of this product, please contact your local
city office, your household waste disposal service or
the shop where you purchased the product.
How do we help to protect the environment?
We use recycled paper!
Important
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.
If the wash load appears not to have been spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, because it is not evenly
distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will therefore be necessary to redistribute the
wash load manually and select a spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed "Something
Not Working".

14. End of programme
At the end of the programme, the washing machine
stops automatically, gives an audible signal (if option no
sound has not been selected), and displays the relevant
message.
If you had selected the or option, the
Start/Pause button light is off and the “Cycle ended/
Door locked” message appears in the display.
To drain or spin first turn the programme selector dial to
Off and then to Drain programme or “Spin/Delicate
Spin” programme .
Release of the lock is also indicated by the message
“Door openable" (cycle ended) being displayed.
Turn the programme selector dial to Off to switch the
machine off.
Remove the laundry from the washing machine.
Check whether the drum is completely empty, by
rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to
prevent any items of laundry from remaining
accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged
in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or bleed colour
into another load of laundry.
We advise you to close the water supply tap and
disconnect the plug from the socket.
Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.

Washing Hints
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the
first few times you use the appliance.
The average weights of the most common items are
listed below as a guide:
1000g = 1 kg
Sheet 700-1000 g
Pillow case 100-200 g
Tablecloth 400-500 g
Serviette 50-100 g
Tea towel 70-120 g
Linen hand towel 100-150 g
Towelling hand towel 150-250 g
Towelling bath towel 700-1000 g
Bath robe 1000-1500 g
Man’s shirt 200-300 g
Apron 150-200 g
●Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with
small ones.
●Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric,
colour-fastness and how dirty it is.
●Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may
unravel.
●Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws
etc) as these could damage the drain pump.
●When washing curtains, remove the hooks.
●Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.
●It is essential to wash new coloured items separately
when washing for the first time.
●When washing fabrics requiring different wash
temperatures together, always select the lowest
temperature.
●White items should not be washed with coloured
items.
●Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)
should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.
●Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic
washing machines.
●Use the correct quantities of detergent.
●For wool, use gentle detergent only in small
quantities.
●Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care
and kept out of reach of children.
●Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are
difficult to remove and should be treated before
washing with specific products, which can be found
in most household shops. In some cases it may help
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-
soak product or biological detergent.
●Only wool marked “Pure New Wool - washable,
preshrunk” can be washed in the machine using the
wool programme; other types of wool should be
washed in HANDWASH programme.
●If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.
●Once you have finished using the machine, you are
advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap.

And in which form?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they
are also available in different forms. Whether you chose
a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is
your own personal choice.
TRADITIONAL POWDERS
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do
not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.
TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of
the detergent drawer marked with the symbol , start
the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in
the dispenser drawer.
Alternatively the detergent is measured into the
specially designed dosing device* which should be
placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also
known) are available in liquid or powder form, and
generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the
dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent
into the specially designed dosing device* which
should be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back
of the machine drum.
* If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed
before carrying out a drying programme.
FABRIC CONDITIONERS
These are ideal for improving ‘softness’, and also
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing
easier. They are available in two types:
For example Lenor liquid fabric
softener, for use in the washing
machine/washer dryer. The
liquid fabric softener should be
poured into the compartment
marked with the symbol .
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage
instructions and never exceed the
MAX level.
Bounce conditioning sheets for use
in a tumble dryer. We recommend
the conditioning sheets are pinned
(using a safety pin) to an article
of laundry and placed in the
tumble dryer.
Which detergent?....
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your
appliance, it is important to use the right detergent in
your everyday wash, and only detergents recommended
for use in automatic machines.
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and
household textiles and to make them last longer you
should use different types of detergent for different
washes, whether for whites, colours or delicates.
WHITES
We recommend the Ariel product
range which is biological and
designed to provide excellent
cleaning and stain removal even
at low temperatures.
NON BIOLOGICAL
If you prefer to use a non
biological detergent, which does
not contain enzymes we
recommend Fairy. Fairy provides
good cleaning and stain removal.
COLOURS
For coloured items you should use a
detergent which is designed to clean
while maintaining the original colour.
Ariel Color does not contain bleach
and therefore helps to preserve
colours.
DELICATE ITEMS
When washing delicates such as
woollens, you should use a product
which is specially designed to care for
fine fabrics.
Dreft Automatic is suitable for
woollens and other delicates.
LAUNDRY BLEACH
For additional stain removal you may
wish to use a product such as Ace
Gentle Bleach which is used in addition
to your chosen detergent. Ace is
suitable for all washable fabrics
including silks, woollens and colours.

Important Notes
For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for
dispensing detergents and liquid additives.
Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by pushing it
in gently. This is particularly important if you are using
fabric conditioner to avoid the conditioner entering the
machine prematurely.
When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme,
place the detergent into the correct compartment in the
dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.
