Cleaning the water inlet filters
If you notice that the m achine is taking longer
to fill, check that the fi lter in the water inlet
hose is not blocked.
1. Turn off the water tap.
2. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
3. Clean the filter in the hose using a hard bristle brush.
4. Screw the hose back onto the tap. 5. Unscrew the hose from the machine.
Keep a rug nearby because some water
may flow.
6. Clean the filter in the valve with a stiff
brush or with the piece of cloth.
7. Screw the hose back to the machine andmake sure the connection is tight.
8. Turn on the water tap.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as
follows to empty out the machine:
1. pull out the plug fr om the power socket;
2. close the water tap;
3. if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;
4. open the pump door;
5. place a bowl on the floor. Remove the emergency emptying cap  from the filter.
The water should drain  by gravity into the
bowl. When the bowl is full, refit the cap
into the filter. Empty  the bowl. Repeat the
procedure until water stops flowing out;
6. clean the pump if n ecessary as previously
described;
7. screw the pump again and close the door.
Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed
as follows:
1. Pull out the plug fr om the power socket.
2. Turn off the water tap.
3. Unscrew the inlet hose.
4. Place the end of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor,  open the emergency
emptying cup of the filter and let water
drain out.

5. Refit the emergency emptying cap intothe filter and screw the water inlet hose
back.
6. When you intend to  start the machine up
again, make sure that the room temper-
ature is above 0°C.
Important!  Every time you drain the water
through the emergency emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash
compartment of the de
tergent drawer and
then run the drain programme. This will
activate the  ECO Valve device avoiding that
part of the detergent remains unused at next
washing.

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 tech nology operate very economically
using very little water wi thout affecting performance.

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 refitt ed 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.
26  electrolux
 
						

							
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 circulat ion 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 lowe ring 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 n ecessary, check the set-
ting with a spirit leve l. 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 mach ine 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 correct
ly 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 ho se can be positioned
in three ways.
• Hooked over the edge of a sink  using
the plastic hose guid e 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.
28   electrolux
 
						

							
•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 la rger than the outside
diameter of the drai n 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
Any electrical work required to in-
stall this appliance must be carried
out by qualified electrician or com-
petent person.
Information on the el ectrical connection is
given on the rating plate on the inner edge of
the appliance door.
Check that your domest ic 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 or
injury 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.
