Warnings
The following warnings are provided in the interests of overall safety. You must read them carefully before
installing or using the appliance.
General safety
Use
• In the event of a fault, do not attempt to repair the
appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause damage.
• This appliance is designed for domestic use. It
must not be used for purposes other than those for
which it was designed.
• If repairs are needed, contact an authorised
service centre and ask for genuine spare parts.
• Only wash fabrics which are designed to be
machine washed. Follow the instructions on each
garment label.
• This appliance is designed to be used by adults.
Children must not be allowed to touch the controls
or play with the product.
• Do not overload the appliance. Follow the

• Make sure that all pockets are empty. Objects such
as coins, safety pins, pins and screws can cause
extensive damage.
• Pets sometimes climb into washing machines.
Check the drum before each use.
• 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.
Installation
• All internal packing must be removed before using
the appliance. Serious damage may be caused to
the machine or adjacent furniture if the protective
transit devices are not removed or are not
completely removed. Refer to the relevant
paragraph in the instruction book.
• Place small items such as socks, belts, etc. in a
cloth bag or pillowcase to prevent them getting
trapped between the drum and the tub.
• Any electrical work required to install this appliance
must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
• Use only the recommended quantities of fabric
softener. An excessive amount could damage the
laundry.
• Any plumbing work required to install this
appliance must be carried out by a qualified
plumber.
• Leave the porthole door slightly ajar when the
appliance is not in use. This preserves the door
seal and prevents the formation of musty smells.
• After having installed the machine, check that it is
not standing on its electrical supply cable.
• Always check that water has emptied out before
opening the door. If not, drain the water following
the instructions in the instruction book.
• If the appliance is placed on a carpeted floor,
ensure that air can circulate freely between the
adjustable feet and the floor.
• Always unplug the appliance and shut the water
tap after use.
4
• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s
reach.
• Children are often not aware of the dangers of
electrical appliances. When the machine is
working, children should be carefully supervised
and not allowed to play with the appliance.
• When the appliance is to be scrapped, pull the plug
out of the socket, 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.
• The packaging components (e.g. plastic film,
polystyrene) can be dangerous to children suffocation! Keep them out of children’s reach.
Discarding

This means that they can be recycled by disposing of
them properly in appropriate collection containers.
Tips for environmental protection
To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
tips:
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be
washed at a lower temperature.
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without
prewashing in order to save detergent, water and
time (the environment is protected too!).
• Measure out detergent according to the water
hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of
laundry being washed.
• The machine works more economically if it is fully
loaded.
• When small loads are washed, use only half to two
thirds of the recommended amount of detergent.

Installation
Water inlet
The drain hose must not be kinked. Run it along the
floor; only the part near the drainage point must be
raised.
Connect the water inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4"
thread after having inserted the small filter “A”
supplied with the machine.
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.
P0023
A
Electrical connection
P0003
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V,
single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
P0021
Check that your domestic electrical installation can
take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also
taking into account any other appliances in use.
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.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in
accordance with current wiring regulations.
Water drainage
The manufacturer declines any responsibility
for damage or injury through failure to comply
with the above safety precaution.
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three
ways:
Should the appliance power supply cable
need to be replaced, this should be carried
out by our Service Centre.
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.
8
Your new washing machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption.
• Programme and temperature setting using the
programme selector.
• Automatic cooling of the wash water before
draining prevents distortion of plastic pipes in the
domestic water system due to the high
temperature of the water and reduces thermal
shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.
• Programme progress display showing the
programme steps selected and the programme
phase which is running.
• The special wool programme with its new
delicate wash system treats your woollens with
extreme care.
• The balance control device ensures that the
washing machine remains stable when spinning.

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.
• 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.
Removing stains
• Remove persistent stains before washing. Rub
particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or
detergent paste.
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water
and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them
prior to washing.
• Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or
tie them up in a bag or net.
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.
Temperatures
60°-95°
for normally soiled white cottons and
linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels,
tablecloths, sheets...)
60°-50°
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).
Cold
30°-40°
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.
for delicate items (e.g. net curtains),
mixed laundry including synthetic fibres
and woollens bearing the label «pure
new wool, machine washable, nonshrink».
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites
and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and
fast coloureds only).
Maximum loads
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone (*),
lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.
Recommended loads are indicated in the
programme charts.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat
stains with methylated spirits. Remove any residual
marks from white fabrics with bleach.
General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and
treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any
residual marks with bleach.
Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics 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.
13
ENGLISH
Laundry weights
Washing hints
Quantity of detergent to be used
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.
The type and quantity of detergent will depend on
the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and
hardness of the water used.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated
spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
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.
Detergents and additives
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on
quantities to use.
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.
Use less detergent if:
– you are washing a small load;
– the laundry is lightly soiled;
– large amounts of foam form during washing.
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of
fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour,
washing temperature and degree of soiling.
Degrees of water hardness
All commonly available washing machine detergents
may be used in this appliance:
Degrees
Level
– powder detergents for all types of fabric;
Characteristic
– powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max)
and woollens;

Maintenance
1. Bodywork
3. Drain filter
Clean the outside of the machine with warm water
and a neutral, non-abrasive household detergent.
Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
The drain filter collects threads and small objects
inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that
the filter is clean.
Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or
similar products to clean the bodywork.
Open the filter door.
Place a container under the filter and unscrew it.
2. Detergent dispenser drawer
After a while, detergents and fabric softeners leave
deposits in the drawer.
Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it under
a running tap. To remove the drawer from the
machine, press the button in the rear left-hand
corner.
P0861
To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive
compartment can be removed.
P0860
Pull out the filter.
Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it,
screwing it fully in.
P0010
P0009
Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer
recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the
drawer after cleaning.
P0859
P0040
4. 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 and remove the filter.
Clean it with a stiff brush.
P0038
Refit the filter and screw the hose back onto the tap.

ENGLISH
5. Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged (outlet pump is
blocked, filter or outlet hose are clogged), proceed
as follows to empty out the machine:
• pull out the plug from the power socket;
• close the water tap;
• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;
• place a bowl on the floor;
• put the outlet hose end into the bowl and let the
water come out.
Should it not be possible to have access to the outlet
hose because, for example, the appliance is built in
the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the outlet filter
after placing a bowl on the floor, to let the water
come out slowly.
At the end screw the filter again.
6. Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as
follows:
• Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet
hose from the tap.
• Place the end of the outlet hose and that of the
inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor.
• Select the draining programme (PUMP OUT) and
run it until the machine stops.
• Switch the machine off.
• Remove the plug from the socket.
• Screw the water inlet hose back on and put the
outlet hose back in its place.
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 0°C.

Something not working?
In the event of operating problems, you are advised to read the following chart carefully before calling the
service centre.
During machine operation the ALARM light, the light of the START/PAUSE button and one of the following
lights in the programme progress display may flash indicating that there are operating problems:
RINSE HOLD : problems with the water supply,
RINSES
: problems with water draining,
MAIN WASH : door open.
Once the problem has been eliminated, press the START/PAUSE button to restart the programme.
Problem
Possible cause
• The machine does not start up:
• Check that the door is firmly closed.
• Check that the machine is plugged in and that there
is power at the socket.
• Check that the main fuse has not blown.
• Check that the programme selector dial is positioned
correctly.
• Check that the START/PAUSE button has been
depressed.
• The machine does not fill:
• Check that the water tap is open.
• Check that water is coming out of the tap.
• Check that the inlet hose is not squashed or kinked.
• Check that the filter in the inlet hose is not blocked.
• Check that the door is closed.
• The machine fills then empties
immediately:
• The end of the drain hose is too low. Refer to
relevant paragraph in “water drainage” section.
• The machine does not empty
and/or does not spin:
• Check that the drain hose is not squashed or kinked.
• A programme with the RINSE HOLD option has been
selected .
• The drain filter is clogged. Clean it.
• Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent
(creates too much foam) has been used.
• There is water on the floor:
• 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.
• Check that the drain hose is not damaged.
• The machine vibrates or is
noisy:
• Check that all the transit bolts and packing have been
removed.
• Check that the machine is not resting against
anything.
• Check that the support feet are resting firmly on the
ground.
• Check that the laundry is evenly distributed in the
drum.
• Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
22
Possible cause
• The door will not open:
• The programme is still running.
• The door lock has not been released.
The door can be opened when the door locked
light is off.
• The water level in the machine is too high or the
machine is heating.
• Spinning starts late or laundry is
not completely spun at the end
of the programme:
• 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 15 minutes, the laundry is still not
evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will spin
at a reduced speed.
• The machine makes an unusual
noise:
• The machine is fitted with a type of motor which
makes an unusual noise compared with other
traditional motors. This new motor ensures a softer
start and more even distribution of the laundry in
the drum when spinning, as well as increased
stability of the machine.
• No water is visible in the drum:
• Machines based on modern technology operate
very economically using very little water without
affecting performance.
• Unsatisfactory washing results:
• Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has
been used.
• Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to
washing.
• The correct temperature was not selected.
• Excessive laundry load.
• Detergent residue is left after the
wash cycle:
• This is most problaby due to non soluble
components contained in modern detergents. It is
not a sign of inadequate rinsing.
Brush or shake the garments and, if necessary,
rinse them again.
• Foam remains after the last
rinse:
• Modern detergents can produce foam even after
rinsing, but this will not affect the quality of the
wash.
If you are unable to identify or solve the problem,
contact our service centre. Before telephoning, make
a note of the model, serial number and purchase
date of your machine: the Service Centre will require
this information.
