							Main wash
Sorting the laundry
-  It is recommended you wash only items which are machine washable with water and 
detergent and not dry-clean items.
-  If you need to wash rugs, bedspreads or other heavy items, it is best not to spin them.
-  Sort the laundry according to fabric type, degree of soiling and wash temperature: Always
follow the wash care advice on the garment label for the most suitable care and 
treatment of the laundry 
Laundry for hot wash 
Coloured, easy-care materials 
Delicates and wool 
Wash by hand 
Items labelled with the following symbol are not suitable for machine washing:
Dry clean 
For very delicate items, such as net curtains, underwear, tights etc., you are advised to 
use a laundry net or wash bag.
-   Woollen items must be labelled with the "Pure New Wool" symbol to be washed in the 
machine  , and must also be labelled "non-matting" or "machine washable".
-   Colour often leaks from new coloured items.
This can then colour other lighter items being washed. 
We therefore  recommend that coloured items should be washed for the first time 
separately.
For future washes, colourfast items can only be washed with whites up to 40°C.
Note: when sorting laundry
-check there are no metal objects in the laundry
(such as paper clips, safety pins, pins, coins
etc...);
-button up pillowcases, fasten zips, hook & eye
fasteners, belts and long dressing gown cords;
-remove curtain hooks;
-pay close attention to the labels on items
-if you notice stubborn stains whilst sorting the
laundry, remove them using a special detergent or
a special stain remover.
-We recommend that you do not do a full load of towelling items only as these become too
heavy since they absorb a lot of water.

							The correct way to wash
Preparing the laundry
A)Select the laundry.
Loading the laundry
B)Open the porthole.
C)Put the laundry in the washing machine.
Close the porthole again, ensuring that no items of
laundry are obstructing the lock.
Putting detergent in machine
D)Open the drawer, choose the detergent and put in
the correct amount, according to the manufacturer’s
instructions and the advice on page 18.
Add any other laundry aids (see page 18). Close the
drawer again.
Selecting the wash programme
Refer to the programme guide or the programme descriptions on the machine to select the
most suitable programme.
Turning the selector knob, the required programme is activated. 
Wait that a “SPIN” indicator light will go on.
Press additional function buttons (if required).
Check that the tap is turned on and that the discharge hose is positioned correctly. 
Press the "Start/Pause" button.
When the "Start/Pause" button is pressed the machine sets the working sequence in motion.
The programme carries out with the programme selector stationary on the selected
programme till cycle ends.
Warning:If there is any break in the power supply while the machine is operating, a special
memory stores the selected programme and, when the power is restored, it continues where
it left off.
When the programme is finished
At the end of the programme all the wash stage indicator lights will illuminate. 
Wait for the door lock to be released (about 2 minutes after the programme has finished).
The "Door Security" indicator light will go out. 
Switch off the machine by turning the programme selector on the “OFF” position. Open the
door and remove the laundry. Turn off the tap.

							Cleaning and routine maintenance
Do not use alcohol-based scourers and / or thinners on the outside of your washing machine,
just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance:
- Cleaning the drawer compartments.
- Cleaning the filter.
- Cleaning the door glass.
Cleaning the drawer compartments
Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the
compartments for bleaching detergents and additives
occasionally.
A)  To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but
without forcing them.
B)  Clean everything in the compartment under running
water.
C)  Put everything back in its proper place.
Cleaning the filter
The washing machine is fitted with a special filter for
handling large deposits which could block the discharge
hose (coins, buttons etc.) and which can, therefore, be
easily retrieved.
We recommend that the filter be cleaned at least
once a month.
The cleaning operation is as follows:
1)Open the flap
2)Only available on certain models:
Pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and
drain the water into a container. 
3)Before removing the filter, place an absorbent towel
below the filter cap to collect the small amount of
water likely to be inside the pump
4) Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops in the
vertical position.
Remove and clean.
5)  After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the
end of the filter clockwise. Then follow all procedures
described above in reverse order.
23 
						

							Cleaning the door glass
Regularly clean the door glass with a damp cloth. A build
up of soiling and
residues from the water may result in water leaking from
the door.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the
surface.
Transporting the appliance or long
periods when appliance is not in
use
If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for
long periods in unheated places, all remaining water
must be completely removed from the hoses.
Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and
point it downwards into a basin until all the water has
emptied out.
When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order.
24
Attention: if the filter needs cleaning while there is
washing still in the drum, follow the instructions on the
following page to empty the water. This will prevent
excessive loss of water via the filter.

Wait a few minutes for machine to empty.
Reset button or turn "no spin" knob.
Adjust the special adjustable feet.
Remove transit brackets.
Rearrange the laundry evenly.
Wait two minutes.
The machine makes a
different noise when
spinning! This is because it
has a brush motor for better
performance.Only a small level of water can be
seen in the drum! This is because
new machines do not use much
water, yet achieve the same
standard of washing and rinsing.

Note:
The use of environmentally-friendly, phosphate-free detergents can have the following effects:
-waste water from rinsing may be cloudier because of the presence of zeolites held in
suspension, without the rinse performance being adversely affected;
-presence of white powder (zeolites) on laundry after washing, which is not absorbed by
the fabric and does not alter the colour of the fabric.
-The presence of foam in the final rinsing water is not necessarily an indication of poor
rinsing.
-Anionic surfactants used in washing detergent formulae often prove to be difficult to
remove from the laundry itself and, even in small quantities, can still cause considerable
foam production.
-Carrying out more rinse cycles does not serve any purpose in such cases.

Water connection
The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new
hose-sets.
The old hose-sets should not be re-used.
The machine has an inlet hose with 3/4" B.S.P threaded end
connection to attach between the threaded connector on the
appliance and the cold water supply.
This machine only uses cold water, therefore
only one hose is needed to connect to the cold
water supply. Do not connect to the hot supply.
Cold fill is an energy efficient system. Only the
water required for the washing is heated.There
is no loss of heat in the pipeline from a hot
water tank or boiler to the machine.
