Installation
Unpacking
After
removing
outer
carton,
reinforcing
angles
and
polythene
wrapping,
proceed
as
follows:
undo
the
two
winged
screws
A
and
B
on
the
back
of
the
washing
machine
(fig.
1);
remove
the
two
rods
fastened
by
the
winged
screws
A
and
B
(fig.
2);
tilt
the
machine
and
remove
polystyrene
base
packing;
remove
the
four
cardboard
spacers
which
will
have
fallen
to
the
bottom
of
the
machine
during
the
preceding
operation.
Positioning
&
Levelling
Move
the
washer
to
its
permanent
operating
location
and
carefully
level
it
by
adjusting
the
feet
and
locking
them
in
position
with
the
lock
nut
(fig.
3).
It
is
recommended
to
perform
this
work
very
accurately
to
avoid
any
vibration,
noise
or
shifting
of
the
appliance
during
operation.
Also
make
sure
that
the
washing
machine
does
not
touch
walls,
furniture,
etc.
while
working.

Water
connection
Water
inlet
hose:
if
a
cold
water
tap
having
a
3/4”
gas
thread
spout
is
available,
the
inlet
hose
fitted
with
the
rubber
sealing
washer
(supplied
with
the
machine)
should
be
connected
as
shown
(fig.
4).
IMPORTANT:
To
obtain
the
best
washing
results,
it
is
necessary
to
use
the
cold
water
supply
only.
If
the
water
connection
is
made
onto
new
pipes
or
onto
pipes
which
have
not
been
used
for
a
long
time,
it
is
advisable
to
run'off
a
certain
amount
of
water
before
connecting
the
machine.
This
will
avoid
foreign
matter
blocking
the
filters
placed
at
the
end
of
the
water
inlet
hose.
Water
outlet
connection
The
drain
pipe
from
this
machine
must
connect
into
the
main
drain
from
the
premises,
but
not
into
the
rainwater
drain.
Information
as
to
the
type
of
drain
servicing
your
premises
can
be
obtained
from
a
builder
or
the
Local
Authority.
The
curved
end
of
the
outlet
hose
should
be
firmly
hooked
over
the
edge
4
of
a
sink
or
connected
to
a
suitable
drain
pipe
in
the
wall
or
under
the
sink;
however,
such
a
drain
pipe
should
have
a
built-in
air
break
in
order
to
avoid
water
syphoning
from
the
machine
during
draining.
The
top
of
the
drain
hose
(curved
end)
should
not
be
lower
than
50
cms
(20
ins)
or
higher
than
85
cms
(34
ins)
from
floor
level
(fig.
5).
The
water
should
be
able
to
drain
freely
and
the
end
of
the
outlet
hose
must
not
be
under
water.
It
is,
therefore,
advisable
that
the
drain
pipe,
if
used,
has
an
internal
diameter
of
at
least
4
cms
(1,5
ins).
Also,
ensure
that
the
drain
hose
is
not
choked
or
placed
in
such
a
way
as
to
obstruct
the
normal
water
flow.
If
the
drain
hose
is
to
be
hooked
over
the
sink,
ensure
that
the
sink
is
empty
and
that
the
sink
plug
is
not
blocking
the
plug
hole.
If
an
extension
is
required,
its
inner
diameter
must
be
the
same
as
that
of
the
original
hose
of
the
washer
and
its
length
must
not
exceed
2
metres
(6
ft).
Plumbed
installation
It
is
important
that
work
is
carried
out
by
a
qualified
plumber.

Loading
the
clothes
Open
the
front
door.
Open
the
drum
loading
port
by
operating
the
door
catch
(fig.

Put
the
clothes
into
the
drum
in
a
uniform
manner
and
close
the
loading
port
and
the
front
door.
Filling
with
washing
powder
The
washing
powder
dispenser
is
located
on
the
fron
left
of
the
control
panel.
It
is
very
important
to
use
a
low
sudsing
powder
(see
paragraph
«Which
powder»)
such
as
Persil
Automatic
or
Bold.
Pull
out
the
dispenser
and
add
washing
powder.
The
amount
of
washing
powder
for
the
prewash
should
be
put
into
section
«a»
(fig.
7)
of
the
dispenser
and
the
powder
for
the
main
wash
should
be
put
into
section
«b».
Once
the
dispenser
is
filled,
close
by
pushing
in.
Use
of
additives
The
washing
machine
is
designed
to
carry
out
special
treatments
such
as
the
addition
of
fabric
conditioners
automatically
at
the
end
of
some
washing
programmes.
The
conditioner
liquids
to
be
used
7
7
should
be
put
into
compartment
«C»
(fig.
7)
of
the
dispenser
at
the
beginning
of
the
programme.
These
additives
will
be
automatically
used
by
the
machine
at
the
appropriate
time.
Take
care
to
use
the
correct
amount
of
additive,
following
the
manufacturer
instructions.
Which
powder?
Do
not
use
ordinary
powders
like
Ariel,
Radiant,
Daz
etc.
in
your
new
washing
machine.
The
reason
for
this
is
very
simple,
these
powders
produce
so
much
lather
that
clothes
are
prevented
from
tumbling
freely
and
cannot
get
properly
clean.
Do
use
the
right
powder.
To
get
the
best
results,
we
recommend
Persil
Automatic
or
Bold.
Like
all
modem
automatic
machines
the
WD
2290
works
at
peak
efficiency
with
a
low
lather
product.
Both
these
products’
balanced
lather
is
specially
designed
to
complement
the
cleaning
action
of
these
machines.
So
use
it
regularly
for
trouble
free
washing
and
superb
results.

area,
enquire
at
competent
local
authority.
For
reduced
load
or
light
soiling,
reduce
the
quantities
accordingly.
Do
use
enough
powder.
To
get
your
clothes
really
clean
it
is
essential
that
enough
powder
is
used
in
the
machine.
The
correct
amount
will
depend
on
a
number
of
things:
the
hardness
of
water,
the
size
of
the
load,
and
the
amount
of
soiling
present.
As
a
guide
we
suggest
you
follow
the
table
shown
and
adjust
the
amounts
in
light
of
your
personal
experience.
You
may
find
it
helps
to
use
a
measuring
cup
at
first.
Selection
of
washing
programme
The
washing
machine
carries
out
12
washing
programmes
and
7
additional
programmes.
Each
programme
has
been
specially
designed
for
a
specific
type
of
fabric
(e.g.
cotton,
synthetic
fibres,
wool
etc.)
and
incorporates
the
H.L.C.C.
care
labelling
scheme.
The
appropriate
programme
must
therefore
be
chosen
according
to
the
ts^pe
of
fabric
to
be
washed.
Programme
description
is
to
be
found
on
the
inside
side
of
the
front
door.
Starting
After
loading
the
clothes,
the
washing
powder..and
the
fabric
conditioners
into
the
respective
compartments,
make
sure
—
before
you
start
the
machine
—
that:
—
the
plug
is
in
the
wall
socket
—
the
water
tap
is
turned
on
(fully
open)
—
the
drain
hose
is
correctly
placed
—
the
loading
door
is
correctly
closed.
You
may
now
select
the
required
wash
cycle
by
turning
the
program
control
knob
clockwise
after
making
sure
that
it
is
pressed
in;
select
the
required
water
temperature.
Selecte
the
required
special
features,
if
any.
At
this
point,
to
start
the
washing
machine
simply
pull
the
programme
control
knob
(and
the
pilot
lamp
lights
up).
8
Once
it
is
started,
the
machine
will
automatically
carry
out
all
phases
of
the
selected
program.
Stopping
When
the
program
is
completed
(pilot
lamp
goes
out),
the
machine
stops
automatically.
You
should
now
press
in
the
program
control
knob
and
wait
for
about
1^2
minutes
after
the
wash
cycle
is
completed
before
you
open
the
door,
so
as
to
allow
the
door
safety
device
(interlock)
to
release
it.
Open
the
door
only
after
the
wash
cycle
is
completed.
In
the
case
of
the
"gentle
wash
cycles”,
don't
forget
to
drain
the
water
prior
to
opening
the
door.
If
need
be,
you
may
stop
the
machine
at
any
given
moment
during
the
cycle
by
pushing
in
the
program
control
knob.
When
the
wash
cycle
is
completed,
it
is
advisable
to
unplug
the
machine
from
the
wall
socket
and
to
turn
off
the
water
tap.
Drying
If
you
wish
to
machine
dry
your
laundry
at
the
end
of
a
wash
cycle,
leave
the
tap
open
and
the
drain
hose
hooked
over
the
edge
of
the
sink
or
in
the
drain.
During
the
drying
cycle,
the
machine
requires
approx.
0.5
liters
(0.9)
pints)
of
water
per
minute.
Dampness
is
removed
from
the
drained
laundry
by
means
of
a
special
heating
element.
This
dampness
condenses
in
the
machine.
However,
the
small
cold
water
supply
causes
the
resulting
steam
to
condense
and
the
condensate
is
then
drained
together
with
the
cooling
water
and
eliminated
throught
the
drain
hose.
Consequently,
you
have
no
need
to
worry
about
steamed-up
windows
and
walls,
nor
is
there
any
need
to
provide
special
ventilation
of
the
room
in
which
the
machine
is
set
up.
Proceed
as
follows
to
carry
out
a
drying
cycle:
1)
Remove
all
spin-drained
laundry
from
the
machine.
2)
Sort
the
laundry
to
be
ironed
from
the
laundry
to
be
only
dried
and
put
away.
3)
Important!
Load
up
to
a
maximum
of
2.5
kgs
(5.5
lbs)
of
spin-drained
laundry
into
the
drum
and
be
careful
to
fill
it
in
loose,
i.e.:
not
crammed
together.
In
the
case
of
easy-care
clothes,
load
only
up
to
a
maximum
of
1
kg
(2.2
lbs)!
4)
Close
the
loading
door.
5)
Turn
the
program
control
knob
to
«T»
and
pull
out
the
control
knob.
6)
Set
drying
time
control
knob
as
required.
The
DRYING
pilot
lamp
also
lights
up,
in
addition
to
the
mains
pilot
lamp,
and
the
drying
cycle
starts.
In
the
meantime,
till
the
first
drying
cycle
is
completed,
you
might
want
to
hang
out
the
other
half
of

stretch
because
during

If
there

you
should

being
a
general
indication
only
and,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
each
housewife
will
soon
work
out
specific
times
from
her
own
personal
experience.
Here,
then
is
a
general
indication
of
these
average
drying
times:
with
a
drum
load
of
normal
laundry
(up
to
2,5
kgs.
=
5.5
lbs):
approximately
80^100
minutes
for
ironing
dry,
and
approx.
120^140
minutes
for
ready-to-
put-away
drying.
With
a
drum
load
of
easy-care
clothes,
(up
to
1
kg
=
2.2
lbs):
approximately
40-7-60
minutes
for
ready-to-put-away
drying.
To
prevent
the
formation
of
wrinkles
and
creases,
all
clothes
should
be
removed
from
the
drum
without
delay
after
completion
of
a
drying
cycle.
Care
and
cleaning
Cleaning
the
machine
Important:
Make
sure
that
the
plug
has
been
removed
from
the
socket
prior
to
undertaking
any
kind
of
maintenance.
From
time
to
time,
carry
out
a
complete
cycle
without
a
washing
load,
adding
1
oz
of
«Calgon».
This
should
also
be
done
when
the
washer
has
been
out
of
use
for
a
long
time.
Leave
the
door
ajar
for
about
2
hours
after
the
wash
to
allow
air
to
circulate
freely
inside
th
machine.
Plated,
polished
and
plastic
parts
and
the
glass
door
should
be
cleaned
with
a
soft
damp
cloth,
never
with
an
abrasive
cleaning
powder.
For
the
cabinet
exterior
use
a
lukewarm
solution
of
mild
soap,
then
rinse
and
dry
carefully.
It
is
also
advisable
to
clean
the
cabinet,
from
time
to
time,
with
a
wax
polish
applied
with
a
soft
cloth.
Filter
cleaning
The
filter
(fig.
8)
is
located
on
the
front
of
the
washer
in
the
bottom
right
hand
corner.
Its
purpose
is
to
collect
fluff
and
any
small
objects
(safety-pins,
coins,
etc)
inadvertently
left
in
the
laundry.
The
filter
should
be
cleaned
periodically.
If
the
articles
washed
are
mainly
woolen
items,
then
the
frequency
of
filter
cleaning
should
be
increased.
At
the
en
of
a
washing
programme
place
the
free
end
of
the
drain
hose
at
floor
level
in
a
basin
to
collect
any
excess
water.
12
Remove
the
lower
panel
of
the
cabinet,
by
lifting
it
slightly
and
pulling
it
outwards.
Before
removing
the
filter,
place
a
small
bowl
on
the
floor
below
the
filter
cover
to
collect
any
water
that
may
come
out.
Unscrew
the
filter
knob
anti-clockwise
and
pull
the
filter
out
(fig.
8).
Clean
filter
and
refit,
ensuring
that
the
filter
knob
is
screwed
tight.
Hints
for
care
of
washing
powder
dispenser
We
recommend
that
the
washing
powder
dispenser
is
checked
regularly
to
ensure
that
it
is
clean
and
dry.
Do
wipe
the
dispenser
after
each
wash.
Should
the
dispenser
require
special
cleaning,
the
drawer
can
be
completely
removed,
and
the
interior
cleared
of
any
deposit.
The
drawer
can
be
removed
from
the
front
of
the
appliance
by
giving
a
sharp
pull
outwards.
A
sharp
tap
with
the
palm
of
the
hand
may
be
necessary
when
replacing
the
drawer.
Helpfiill
tips
for
washing
Here
are
some
practical
hints
to
enable
you
to
obtain
the
best
washing
results:
8
Use
a
low
suds
washing
powder
specially
made
for
front
loading
washing
machines.
An
excessive
formation
of
suds
will
cause
unsatisfactory
operation
The
quantity
of
washing
powder
required
depends
on
the
amount
of
laundry
and
on
how
soiled
it
is.
It
may
therefore
be
necessary
to
vary
the
quantities
suggested
in
this
book
according
to
experience.
To
obtain
the
best
results
when
washing
wool
do
not
wash
more
than
2
lbs.
at
a
time.
In
order
to
get
good
results
when
washing
synthetic
material
use
a
maximum
washing
load
of
4
to
5
lbs.
This
is
a
special
cycle
for
washing
wool
garments
bearing
the
woolmark
label
«Pure
New
Wool
washing
shrink
resistant».
If
your
water
is
hard
it
can
be
softened
by
adding
special
products
such
as
«Calgon»
to
the
washing
powder
in
the
compartment
B
(fig.
7).
These
products
facilitate
the
action
of
the
washing
powder
and
help
to
give
better
results.
Clothes
should
be
sorted
according
to
fabric
type,
degree
of
soil
and
colour
fastness.
Tears
and
open
seams
should
be
mended,
loose
buttons
secured,
zippers
closed
and
laces
or
belts
collected
in
a
cotton
bag.
Articles
without
a
hem
should
not
be
washed.
Ensure
pockets
are
emptied
and
spots
of
rust,
paint,
ink
etc.,
removed
before
washing.
Always
turn
off
water
taps
fully
when
the
machine
is
not
in
use,
even
if
it
is
plumbed
in.
If,
after
commencing
a
wash,
you
find
that
the
wrong
programme
has
been
selected,
push
the
control
knob
fully
in
turning
the
indicator
knob
clockwise
to
the
correct
programme.
Then
pull
control
knob
fully
out
again.
13
Washing
powder
should
only
be
placed
in
the
dispenser
immediately
prior
to
the
start
of
a
programme.
Do
not
leave
washing
powder
in
the
dispenser
for
any
length
of
time
as
it
may
form
lumps
which
can
be
difficult
to
dissolve.
It
is
advisable
to
inspect
the
filters
in
the
water
inlet
hoses
periodically
and
clean
if
necessary.

appliance
