alternatively, rest it on  
the side of a washbasin  
or bathtub, fastening the  
duct supplied to the tap  
(see figure). The free end  
of the hose should not  
be underwater.  
Once the appliance has been installed, and before  
you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle with  
detergent and no laundry, using the wash cycle 2.

Detergents and laundry  
Detergent dispenser drawer  
Silk: use special wash cycle 8 to wash all silk  
GB  
garments. We recommend the use of special  
detergent which has been designed to wash delicate  
clothes.  
Good washing results also depend on the correct  
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not  
necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in  
fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance  
and contribute to environmental pollution.  
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow  
case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 8.  
Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and  
use a liquid detergent. Use programme 9.  
Express: this wash cycle was designed to wash  
lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes  
and therefore saves both energy and time. By  
selecting this wash cycle (10 at 30°C), it is possible to  
wash different fabrics together (except for wool and  
silk items), with a maximum load of 1,5 kg.  
Sport Intensive (wash cycle 11): is for washing  
lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts,  
etc.); for best results, we recommend not exceeding  
the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash  
cycles". We recommend using a liquid detergent and  
dosage suitable for a half-load.  
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these  
create too much foam.  
Open the detergent

dispenser drawer and  
pour in the detergent or  
washing additive, as

compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)  
Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that extra  
compartment 4 has been removed.  
Sport Light (wash cycle 12): is for washing lightly  
soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.);  
for best results, we recommend not exceeding the  
maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash  
cycles". We recommend using a liquid detergent and  
dosage suitable for a half-load.  
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle  
(powder or liquid)  
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately  
prior to the start of the wash cycle.  
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 13): is for washing sports  
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2  
pairs simultaneously.  
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)  
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.  
extra compartment 4: Bleach  
Preparing the laundry  
Load balancing system  
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations  
and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the  
drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly  
greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after  
several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,  
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the  
load is excessively unbalanced, the washing machine  
performs the distribution process instead of spinning.  
To encourage improved load distribution and balance,  
we recommend small and large garments are mixed  
in the load.  
• Divide the laundry according to:  
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label  
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.  
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.  
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the  
weight of the laundry when dry:  
Durable fabrics: max. 6 kg  
Synthetic fabrics: max. 2,5 kg  
Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg  
Wool: max. 1,5 kg  
Silk: max. 1 kg  
How much does your laundry weigh?  
1 sheet 400-500 g  
1 pillow case 150-200 g  
1 tablecloth 400-500 g  
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g  
1 towel 150-250 g  
Special wash cycles  
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using  
programme 7, even those carrying the "hand-wash  
only"  
label. For best results, use special  
detergents and do not exceed 1,5 kg of laundry.

Precautions and tips  
! This washing machine was designed and  
Opening the porthole door manually  
GB  
constructed in accordance with international safety  
regulations. The following information is provided for  
safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.  
In the event that it is not possible to open the  
porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to  
remove the laundry, proceed as follows:  
General safety  
1. remove the plug from  
the electrical socket.  
• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.  
2. make sure the water  
level inside the machine is  
• The washing machine must only be used by adults, in  
accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.  
lower than the door  
• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with  
wet or damp hands or feet.  
opening; if it is not, remove  
excess water using the  
drain hose, collecting it in a  
bucket as indicated in the  
figure.  
• Do not pull on the power supply cable when  
unplugging the appliance from the electricity  
socket. Hold the plug and pull.  
• Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while  
the machine is in operation.  
3. using a screwdriver,  
remove the cover panel on  
the lower front part of the  
washing machine (see  
figure).  
• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach  
extremely high temperatures.  
• Never force the porthole door. This could damage  
the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent  
accidental opening.  
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any  
circumstances access the internal mechanisms in  
an attempt to repair it yourself.  
• Always keep children well away from the appliance  
while it is operating.  
• The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  
• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group  
of two or three people and handle it with the utmost  
care. Never try to do this alone, because the  
appliance is very heavy.  
• Before loading laundry into the washing machine,  
make sure the drum is empty.  
Disposal  
• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local  
regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that  
old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected  
separately in order to optimise the recovery and  
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce  
the impact on human health and the environment.  
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the  
product reminds you of your obligation, that when  
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately  
collected.  
4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the  
figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop  
position; pull downwards and open the door at the  
same time.  
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are  
securely in place before you push it onto the  
appliance.  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct  
disposal of their old appliance.

Care and maintenance  
Cutting off the water and electricity  
supplies  
Cleaning the pump  
GB  
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning  
pump which does not require any maintenance.  
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)  
may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the  
pump, situated in its bottom part.  
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This  
will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the  
washing machine and help to prevent leaks.  
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and  
during all maintenance work.  
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug  
the appliance.  
Cleaning the washing machine  
To access the pre-chamber:  
The outer parts and rubber components of the  
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked  
in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or  
abrasives.  
1. using a screwdriver,  
remove the cover panel  
on the lower front part of  
the washing machine  
(see figure);  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
drawer  
Remove the dispenser  
by raising it and pulling it  
out (see figure).  
Wash it under running  
water; this operation  
should be repeated  
frequently.  
2. unscrew the lid by  
rotating it anti-clockwise  
(see figure): a little water  
may trickle out. This is  
perfectly normal;  
Caring for the door and drum of your  
appliance  
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to  
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.  
3. clean the inside thoroughly;  
4. screw the lid back on;  
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are  
securely in place before you push it onto the  
appliance.  
Checking the water inlet hose  
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are  
any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during  
the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a  
cracked hose could easily split open.  
! Never use second-hand hoses.

Troubleshooting  
Your washing machine could fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see “Assistance”),  
GB  
make sure that the problem cannot be not solved easily using the following list.  
Problem:  
Possible causes / Solutions:  
The washing machine does not  
switch on.  
• The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact.  
• There is no power in the house.  
The wash cycle does not start.  
• The washing machine door is not closed properly.  
• The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.  
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.  
• The water tap has not been opened.  
• A delayed start has been set (see “Running a wash cycle”).  
The washing machine does not  
take in water ("H2O" will flash  
on the display).  
• The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.  
• The hose is bent.  
• The water tap has not been opened.  
• There is no water supply in the house.  
• The pressure is too low.  
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

the floor (see “Installation”).  
• The free end of the hose is under water (see “Installation”).  
• The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.  
If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap,  
switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the  
dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems  
relating to water drainage, causing the washing machine to fill with water  
and drain continuously. Special anti-draining valves are available in shops  
and help to avoid this inconvenience.  
The washing machine does not  
drain or spin.  
• The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require the  
drain phase to be started manually.  
• The “Easy iron” option has been activated: To complete the wash cycle,  
press the START/PAUSE button (see “Wash cycles and options”).  
• The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”).  
• The drainage duct is clogged.
