INSTALLATION

• Remove the 2 or 4 transportation screws (A) on the back and remove the 2 or 4 flat washers, rubber bungs and plastic spacer tubes (B) as illustrated in figure 1.
  

keep packaging materials away from children.

• Place the corrugated plastic sheet, found on top of the appliance during the unpacking process*, into the base of the appliance as shown in figure 2 (according to the model, consider version A, B or C).
  

* In some models, the corrugated plastic sheet is not provided.

Hydraulic connections

• Connect the water hose to the water supply tap (fig. 3) only using the hose supplied with the appliance (do reuse old hose-sets).
  
• SOME MODELS may include one or more of the following features:
• HOT&COLD (fig. 4): water mains connection settings with hot and cold water for higher energy savings.
  Connect the grey tube to the cold water tap and the red one to the hot water tap. The machine can be connected to the cold water tap only: in this case, some programs may start a few minutes later.
  
• AQUASTOP (fig. 5): a device located on the supply tube that stops water flow if the tube deteriorates; in this case, a red mark will appear in the window "A" and the tube must be replaced. To unscrew the nut, press the one-way lock device "B".
  
• AQUAPROTECT – SUPPLY TUBE WITH GUARD (fig. 6): Should water leak from the primary internal tube "A", the transparent containment sheath "B" will contain water to permit the washing cycle to complete. At the end of the cycle, contact the Customer Service Centre to replace the supply tube.
  

Setting

• The washing machine should be installed in its final position such that the water fill hose is not kinked or trapped. The corrugated drain hose should be inserted into suitable drain pipe of between 50 cm and 85 cm height above the floor using the curved drain hose support. If an under sink connection is used the drain hose must be routed above the sink overfill opening to prevent back siphoning. Care must be taken to avoid kinking or trapping the drain hose (fig. 7).
  
  * ACCESSORY SOLD SEPARATELY
• Level the appliance using the feet as illustrated in figure 8:
  
  1. turn the nut clockwise to release the screw;
  2. rotate the foot to raise or lower it until it touches to the floor;
  3. lock the foot, screwing in the nut, until it tightens against to the bottom of the washing machine.
• Plug in the appliance.

contact the Customer Service Centre should the power cord need replacement.
Installation faults are not covered by the manufacturers warranty.

DETERGENT DRAWER

The detergent draw is split into 3 compartments as illustrated in figure 9:

• compartment "1": for prewash detergent;
• compartment " ": for special additives, softeners, starch fragrances, etc.;
  
  only use liquid products; the washing machine is set to automatically dose additives at each cycle during the last rinse.
• compartment "2": for washing detergent.

A liquid detergent cup is also included IN SOME MODELS (fig. 10). To use it, place it in compartment "2". This way, liquid detergent will only enter the drum at the right time. The cup can also be used for bleach when the "Rinse" program is selected.

SOME MODELS are provided with the automatic dosage, this carries out a precise measurement of detergent and softener. In this case, refer to the specific section in the CONTROLS AND PROGRAMS chapter for details.

some detergents are not designed for use in the dispenser drawer but are supplied with their own dispenser that is placed in the drum directly.

PRACTICAL HINTS

Load tips
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.

• To wash wool, make sure the item can be machine washed. Check the fabric label.
• Leave the appliance's door slightly open between washes, to prevent possible bad smells developing inside the machine.

Useful advice for saving
Tips on how to save money and not damage the environment when using your appliance.

• Load the machine to the highest capacity shown in the programme table for each programme - this will allow you to SAVE energy and water.
• Noise and residual laundry moisture are affected by spin speed: a faster spin is associated with greater noise and lower residual moisture in the laundry.
• The most efficient programmes in terms of combined use of water and energy are usually the longer-lasting ones with lower temperature.

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 energy by using a low temperature wash programme.

Before using a drying programme (WASHER-DRYERS)

• SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before using a drying programme.

Dosing the detergent
Below is a short guide with tips and advice on the use of detergent.

• Only use detergents suitable for machine washing.
• Select your detergent according to the type of fabric (cotton, delicates, synthetics, wool, silk, etc.), the colour, the type and level of soiling and the programmed washing temperature.
• To use the right amount of detergent, softener or any other additives, carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions every time: correctly using the appliance with the right dose allows you to avoid waste and to reduce the environmental impact.

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C or above and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results.

For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling. Normal powders are suitable for "white" or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or "colour protecting" powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels of soiling.

For washing at temperatures below 40°C we recommend the use of liquid detergents or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.

For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.

• Too much detergent leads to excessive foam, which prevents the cycle being carried out correctly. It could also affect the quality of the washing and rinsing.

The use of ecological detergents without phosphates may cause the following effects:

• cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is tied to the suspended zeolites which do not have negative effects on rinse efficiency.
• white powder (zeolites) on laundry at the end of the wash: this is normal, the powder is not absorbed by fabric and does not change its colour.
  To remove the zeolites, select a rinse programme. In the future consider using slightly less detergent.
• foam in the water at last rinse: this does not necessary indicate poor rinsing. Consider using less detergent in future washes.
• abundant foam: This is often due to the anionic surfactants found in the detergents which are hard to eliminate from laundry.
  In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate these effects: it will not help at all.
  We suggest conducting a maintenance wash using a proprietary cleaner.

If the problem persists or if you suspect a malfunction, immediately contact an Authorised Customer Service Centre.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Looking after your appliance correctly can extend its lifespan.

Cleaning the appliance's exterior

• Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
• Clean the appliance's external cabinet, using a damp cloth andAVOIDING ABRASIVES, ALCOHOL AND/OR DILUENTS.

OTHER ANOMALIES

Problem	Possible causes and practical solutions
The washing machine does not work / start	Make sure the product is plugged into a working supply socket. Make sure power is on. Make sure the wall socket is working, testing it with another appliance such as a lamp. The door may not be correctly closed: open and close it again. Check whether the required program was correctly selected and the start button pressed. Make sure the washing machine is not in pause or time delay mode.
Water leaked on the floor near the washing machine	This may be due to a leak from the seal between the tap, supply hose and fill valve; in this case, replace it and tighten the hose connections correctly. Make sure the front filter is correctly closed.
The washing machine does not spin	The machine is fitted with a detection system that protects the load and product from damage if the load is not balanced before spinning. This may result in:- If this is experienced remove the load de-tangle it, reload it and restart the spin program. This could be due to the fact that water has not been completely drained: wait a few minutes. If the problem persists, see Error 3 section. Some models include a "no spin" function: make sure it is not selected. Check which options are selected and their effect on the spin cycle.
