This appliance is marked according to

the European directive 2012/19/EU

on Waste Electrical and Electronic

Equipment (WEEE).

WEEE contains both polluting substances (which

can cause negative consequences for the

environment) and basic components (which can

be re-used). It is important to have WEEE

subjected to specific treatments, in order to

remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and

recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can

play an important role in ensuring that WEEE

does not become an environmental issue; it is

essential to follow some basic rules:

! WEEE should not be treated as household

waste;

! WEEE should be handed over to the relevant

collection points managed by the municipality or

by registered companies. In many countries, for

large WEEE, home collection could be present.

In many countries, when you buy a new

appliance, the old one may be returned to the

retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a

one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of

equivalent type and has the same functions as

the supplied equipment.

! After installation, the appliance

must be positioned so that the

plug is accessible.

! The appliance must not be

installed behind a lockable

door, a sliding door or a door

with a hinge on the opposite

side to that of the washer

dryer, in such way that a full

opening of the washer dryer

door is restricted.

! The maximum load capacity of

dry clothes depends on the

model used (see control panel).

! The appliance is not to be used

if industrial chemicals have

been used for cleaning.

! Do not dry unwashed items in

the washer dryer.

! Items that have been soiled with

substances such as cooking oil,

acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene,

spot removers, turpentine, waxes

and wax removers should be

washed in hot water with an extra

become warm, causing an

oxidation reaction in the oil,

Oxidation creates heat. If the

heat cannot escape, items can

become hot enough to catch

fire. Piling, stacking or storing

oil-effected items can prevent

heat from escaping and so

create a fire hazard.

! If it is unavoidable that fabrics

contain vegetable or cooking

oil or have been contaminated

by hair care products be

placed in a washer dryer they

should first be washed in hot

4. PRACTICAL HINTS

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.

! When washing rugs, bedcovers or other

heavy clothing, we recommend you avoid

the spinning cycle.

! 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.

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.

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.

Load tips

Useful advice for saving

Dosing the detergent

!

12

! 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.

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.

Ecodesign legislation (environmentally

friendly products design).

Wool & Soft Care

This programme performs a wash cycle

dedicated to the "Machine Washable" Wool

fabrics, to the articles to be washed by hand

and to treat delicate garments and precious

fabrics. This programme washes at a low

temperature for 49 minutes. Recommended

for small loads.

20°C

This innovative programme, allows you to

wash different fabrics and colours together,

such as cottons, synthetics and mixed

fabrics at only 20°C and provides an

excellent cleaning performance.

Consumption on this program is about 40%

of a conventional 40°C cottons wash.

Mixed

This programme allows you to wash

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:-

• The machine attempts to balance the load, increasing the time of

spin.

• Reduction of the speed of spin to decrease vibrations and noise.

• The spin cycle aborting to protect the machine and load.

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.

Excessive detergent can impede the spin cycle, ensure the correct

amount of detergent is being used.

Strong vibrations /

noises are heard

during the spin cycle

The washing machine may not be fully levelled: if necessary, adjust

the feet as indicated in the specific section.

Make sure transport screws, rubber bungs and spacer tubes were
