							ProblemPossible cause/Solution
The cap on the emergency emptying hose has not been replaced
or the filter has not been properly screwed in after cleaning action.
• Refit the cap on the emergency emptying hose or screw the filter
fully in.
Unsatisfactory washing re-
sults:
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.
• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.
• Use commercial products to treat the stubborn stains.
The correct temperature was not selected.
• Check if you have selected the correct temperature.
Excessive laundry load.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The door will not open:
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
•
Wait until the symbol 
 has gone out.
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the water.
The machine vibrates is
noisy:
The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin:
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redis-
tributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can re-
sume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed
in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case,redistribute the
load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select
the spinning programme.
The machine makes an un-
usual noise:The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor en-
sures 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.
If you are unable to identify or solve the prob-
lem, contact our service centre. Before tele-
phoning, make a note of the model, serial
number and purchase date of your machine:
the Service Centre will require this informa-
tion.

							Installation
Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be re-
moved before using the appliance.
You are advised to keep all transit devices so
that they can be refitted if the machine ever
has to be transported again.
1. After removing all the packaging, carefully
lay machine on it’s back to remove the
polystyrene base from the bottom.
2. Remove the power supply cable and the
draining and inlet hose from the hose
holders on the rear of the appliance.
3. Unscrew the three bolts.
4. Slide out the relevant plastic spacers.

							5. Open the porthole and remove the poly-
styrene block fitted on the door seal.
6. Fill the smaller upper hole and the two
large ones with the corresponding plastic
plug caps supplied in the bag containing
the instruction booklet.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make
sure that air circulation around the machine
is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check
that the machine does not touch the wall or
other kitchen units. Level the washing ma-
chine by raising or lowering the feet. The feet
may be tight to adjust as they incorporate a
self locking nut, but the machine MUST be
level and stable. If necessary, check the set-
ting with a spirit level. Any necessary adjust-
ment can be made with a spanner. Accurate
levelling prevents vibration, noise and dis-
placement of the machine during operation.
Caution! Never place cardboard, wood
or similar materials under the machine to
compensate for any unevenness in the
floor.

							Water inlet
Warning! This appliance must be
connected to a cold water supply.
1. Connect the water inlet hose supplied
with the machine to a tap with a 3/4
thread. Always use the hose supplied
with the appliance.
Important! Do not use the hose from
your previous machine to connect to the
water supply.
2. The other end of the inlet hose which
connects to the machine can be turned
as showed in the picture.
Do not place the inlet hose downwards.
Angle the hose to the left or right depend-
ing on the position of your water tap.
3. Set the hose correctly by loosening the
ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose,
be sure to tighten the ring nut again to
prevent leaks.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.
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 ma-
chine is emptying. This could be done by
tying it to the tap with a piece of string or
attaching it to the wall.
•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.

							The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose and
joining piece is available from your local Service Centre.
Electrical connection
Information on the electrical connection is
given on the rating plate on the inner edge of
the appliance door.
Check that your domestic electrical installa-
tion can take the maximum load required, al-
so taking into account any other appliances
in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed
socket.
The manufacturer does not accept
any responsibility for damage orinjury through failure to comply with
the above safety precaution.
The power supply cable must be
easily accessible after installing the
machine.
Should the appliance power supply
cable need to be replaced, this must
be carried out by a Service Centre.
