							ProblemPossible cause/Solution
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 pilot light 9  goes off.
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the water.

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.
Unsatisfactory drying re-
sults:
The laundry was too wet because it had not be spun or wrung
enough.
• Do another drying cycle.
Too much items have been put on the board or they have been
put one upon another.
• Dry the items separately, spreading them out completely and
without covering one with another.

							6. Fill the smaller upper hole and the two
large ones with the corresponding plas-
tic plug caps supplied in the bag contain-
ing the instruction booklet.
Positioning
Install the machine on a flat hard floor.
Make sure that air circulation around the ma-
chine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc.
Check that the machine does not touch the
wall or other kitchen units. Level the wash-
ing machine by raising or lowering the feet.
The feet may be tight to adjust as they incor-
porate a self locking nut, but the machine
MUST be level and stable. If necessary,
check the setting with a spirit level. Any nec-
essary adjustment can be made with a span-
ner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration,
noise and displacement of the machine dur-
ing operation.
Caution! Never place cardboard,
wood or similar materials under the
machine to compensate for any
unevenness in the floor.
Water inlet
An inlet hose is supplied and can been
found inside the machine drum. Do not use
the hose from your previous machine to con-
nect to the water supply.
Important! This appliance must be con-
nected to a cold water supply.
1. Open the porthole and extract the inlet
hose.
2. Connect the hose with the angled con-
nection to the machine. Do not place
the inlet hose downwards. Angle the
hose to the left or right depending on
the position of your water tap.
28  electrolux
 
						

							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.
4. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4”
thread. Always use the hose supplied
with the appliance.
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.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop
device, which protects against damage
caused by water leaks in the hose which
could develop due to natural ageing of the
hose. This fault is shown by a red sector in
the window «A» . Should this occur, turn
the water tap off and refer to your Service
Centre to replace the hose.

Water drainage
The end of the drain hose can be posi-
tioned 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 al-
ways be ventilated, i.e. the inside diame-
ter of the drain pipe must be larger than
the outside diameter of the drain hose.
The drain hose must not be kinked.
electrolux  29
 
						

							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.
