An excessive amount could damage the laundry. Child safety Children are often not aware of how dangerous electrical appliances can be.
When the machine is working, children should be carefully supervised and not be allowed to play with the appliance. The packaging components (e.g. plastic
film, polystyrene) can be dangerous to children - danger of suffocation! Keep them out of children's reach. Keep all detergents in a safe place out of
children's reach.
Make sure that children or pets do not climb into the drum. When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the electrical supply cable and destroy the plug
with the remaining cable. Disable the door catch in order to prevent children from becoming trapped inside while playing. 3 ENGLISH Disposal Packaging
materials The materials marked with the symbol recyclable. ]PE[=polyethylene ]PS[=polystyrene ]PP[=polypropylene are This means that they can be
recycled by disposing of them properly in appropriate collection containers.
Machine Use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance. Help to keep your country tidy! Tips for environmental protection To save water, energy and to
help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips: Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save
detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!). The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded. Do not overload! With adequate
pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature. Measure out detergent according to the
water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed. Technical specifications DIMENSIONS Height Width Depth Cotton Synthetics

DO NOT USE OLD HOSES.
The other end of the inlet hose which connects to the machine can be turned in any direction. Simply loosen the fitting, rotate the hose and retighten the
fitting, making sure there are no water leaks. P1088 P0021 P1127 5 The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not wish to move the
tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for this type of use. Important! Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or to
pipework that has not been used for some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush out any debris that may have collected in the pipes. Electrical
connection This machine is designed to operate on a 220-240 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply. Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the
maximum load required (2.2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use. Connect the machine to an earthen socket. The manufacturer declines
any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution.
Should the appliance power supply cable need to be replaced, this should be carried out by our Service Centre. Please ensure that when the appliance is
installed the power supply cable is easily accessible. Water drainage The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways: Hooked over the edge of a
sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the machine. In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying. This could
be done by tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to the wall.
P0022 In a sink drain pipe branch. This branch must be above the trap so that the bend is at least 60 cm above the ground. Directly into a drain pipe at a
height of not less than 60 cm and not more than 90 cm. The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated, i.e.
the inside diameter of the drain pipe must be larger than the outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose must not be kinked. P1118 For a correct
functioning of the machine the drain hose must remain hooked on the proper support piece situated on the top part of the back side of the appliance. 6 Your
new washing machine This new machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.
The programme selector dial combines the function of programme and temperature selection, making it easier to set the programme. The programme
progress display shows the spin speed selected and the washing phase which is running. 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 60C before draining will prevent old drain pipes from
being deformed and will reduce thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing. The unbalance detection device prevents vibration during spinning.
The ECO valve allows total use of detergent and reduces water consumption so saving energy.

When the light goes out, the door can be opened (see page 13) 9 ENGLISH Washing hints Sorting the laundry Follow the wash code symbols on each
garment label and the manufacturer's washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens. Laundry weights
The following weights are indicative: bathrobe napkin quilt cover sheet pillow case tablecloth towelling towel tea cloth night dress ladies' briefs man's work
shirt man's shirt man's pyjamas blouse men's underpants 1200 g 100 g 700 g 500 g 200 g 250 g 200 g 100 g 200 g 100 g 600 g 200 g 500 g 100 g 100 g
Temperatures 60 for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g.
shirts, night dresses, pyjamas) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g. underwear). 30-40 (cold)for delicate items (e.g. net
curtains), mixed laundry including synthetic fibres and woollens bearing the label pure new wool, machine washable, non-shrink. The wool wash cycle of
this machine has been approved by Woolmark for the washing of machine washable Woolmark products provided that the garments are washed according to
the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine. M9604. Removing stains Stubborn stains may not be
removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub in the soap and water. Oil based paint:
moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several times. Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the
garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth. Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used
cold. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole. Mould stains:
treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only). Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only). Ball point pen and
glue: moisten with acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain. Before loading the laundry Never wash whites and coloureds together.
Whites may lose their "whiteness" in the wash. New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time. Make
sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes. Remove persistent stains before washing. Rub particularly soiled
areas with a special detergent or detergent paste. Treat curtains with special care.
Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net. Maximum loads Recommended loads are indicated in the programme charts. General rules: Cotton, linen: drum
full but not too tightly packed; Synthetics: drum no more than half full; Delicate fabrics, hand wash and woollens: drum no more than one third full. Washing
a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy. For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size. 10 Lipstick: moisten with acetone as
above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Remove any residual marks from white fabrics with bleach. Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and
treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks with bleach. Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone (*),
then with acetic acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste. Do not machine wash garments saturated with
petroleum, methylated spirits, trichlorethylene, etc, If such fluids have been used to remove stains prior to washing, wait until they have completely
evaporated from the fabric before placing garments in the appliance.

http://somemanuals.com/dref/930099
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk. Quantity of detergent to be used The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree
of soiling and hardness of the water used. Water hardness is classified in so-called "degrees" of hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your area
can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority. Follow the product manufacturers' instructions on quantities to use.
Not enough washing powder causes: the wash load to turn grey, greasy clothes. Too much washing powder causes: sudsing, reduced agitation and washing
effect, inadequate rinsing, Use less detergent if: you are washing a small load, the laundry is lightly soiled, large amounts of foam form during washing.
Detergents and additives Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the
environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance of nature. The choice of detergent will
depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling. Only frontload washer detergents
should be used in this appliance: powder detergents for all types of fabric, powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60C max) and woollens, liquid
detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only. The detergent and any additives
must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.
If using concentrated powder or liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected. Pour liquid detergent into the dispenser drawer
compartment marked just before starting the programme. Any fabric softener must be poured into the compartment marked before starting the wash
programme. Follow the product manufacturer's recommendations on quantities to use and do not exceed the MAX mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.

door. If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop below 0C, proceed as follows: Remove the plug from the socket. Close the
water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose from the tap. Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the
floor and let water drain out. Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on again. By doing
this, any water remaining in the machine is removed, avoiding the formation of ice and, consequently, breakage of the affected parts. When you use the
machine again, make sure that the ambient temperature is above 0C.
Important! Every time you drain the water through the emergency emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash compartment of the
detergent drawer and then run the drain programme. This will activate the ECO valve avoiding that part of the detergent remains unused at next washing.
Water inlet filter If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not blocked. Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the hose from the tap.
Clean the filter with a stiff brush. Screw the hose back onto the tap. P1090 18 Something not working? Problems which you can resolve yourself, before
calling the After Sales Service. During machine operation it is possible that the End light starts to flash: 4 flashes= the door has not been closed 2 flashes=
the machine does not empty 1 flash= the machine does not fill. Once the problem has been eliminated, press the Start/Pause button to restart the programme.
If after all checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Centre. Problem The machine does not start up: Possible cause The door is not firmly
closed. The machine is not plugged in or there is no power at the socket. The main fuse has blown. The programme selector dial is not positioned correctly
and the Start/Pause button has not been depressed. The machine does not fill: The water tap is closed. The inlet hose is squashed or kinked. The filter in
the inlet hose is blocked. The door is not properly closed. The machine fills then empties immediately: The machine does not empty and/or does not spin:
The end of the drain hose is too low.
Refer to relevant paragraph in "water drainage" section. The drain hose is squashed or kinked. The Rinse Hold option has been selected. The drain pump
is clogged. The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. There is water on the floor: Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much
foam) has been used. Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose;
check to see if it is damp. The drain hose is damaged. The cap on the emergency emptying hose has not been replaced after cleaning the filter.
The pump has not been fully screwed in after cleaning. Unsatisfactory washing results: Too little or too much detergent has been used. An unsuitable
detergent has been used. Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing. The correct programme/temperature was not selected.
Excessive laundry load. 19 ENGLISH Problem Water is not visible in the machine: Possible cause The machine based on modern technology operate very
economically using very little water without affecting performance. The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is not evenly
distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disappears and
normal spinning can resume.
If, after few minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin.
