-
Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
- Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the washing machine needs to be moved to another location.
!Packaging materials are not children's toys.
Levelling
- Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or other.

natural_image
Line drawing of a car door corner with a mounted sensor or fixture and a curved arrow indicating rotation (no text or symbols)- If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured according to the worktop, must not exceed 2^ .
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation beneath the washing machine.
Electric and water connections

! We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:
- the socket is earthed and in compliance with the applicable law;
- the socket is able to sustain the appliance's maximum power load indicated in the Technical details table (on the right);
- the supply voltage is included within the values indicated on the Technical details table (on the right);
- the socket is compatible with the washing machine's plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
! The washing machine should not be installed in an outdoor environment, not even when the area is sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.
! When the washing machine is installed, the mains socket must be within easy reach.
! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
! The power supply cable must never be bent or dangerously compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be replaced by an authorised serviceman.
Warning! The company denies all liability if and when these norms are not respected.

Woolmark Platinum Care

WOOLMARK PLATINUM CARE
As gentle as a hand wash.
Hotpoint/Ariston is the only washing machine to have obtained the prestigious Woolmark Platinum
Care Plus mark of recognition (M.0505) from The Woolmark Company, the organisation that certifies the machine washing of all woollen garments.
Programme no. 8 - Wool - can even be used to wash garments whose labels specify "hand wash only" 🎨, and guarantees optimum performance levels while providing complete fabric care.
Programme no. 13 - Woollen blankets - can be used to wash large items made using pure virgin wool (not pile), for example blankets, quilts, etc. The programme also enables products of this type whose labels specify "dry clean only" ☑ to be washed, and offers the best performance levels while guaranteeing complete fabric care. You should, however, check that the description "machine washable" is present on the label of any items made using pile before washing them in the machine.
! The washing machine was designed and built in compliance with the applicable international safety regulations. The following information is provided for your safety and should consequently be read carefully.
General safety
- This washing machine should only be used by adults and in accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.
- Never touch the washing machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.
- Do not pull on the power supply cable to unplug the appliance from the electricity socket. Pull the plug out yourself.
- Do not touch the drain water as it could reach very high temperatures.
- Never force the washing machine door: this could damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent any accidental openings.
- In the event of a malfunction, do not under any circumstances touch internal parts in order to attempt repairs.
- Always keep children well away from the appliance while in operation.
- The appliance door tends to get quite hot during the wash cycle.
- Should it have to be moved, proceed with the help of two or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy.
- Before loading your laundry into the washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.
- Before starting the cycle, make sure the level of maximum load of your laundry is respected.
Disposal
- Disposing of the packaging material: observe local regulations, so the packaging can be re-used.
- The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the environment
Environmentally-friendly technology
If you only see a little water through your appliance door, this is because thanks to the latest Hotpoint/Ariston technology, your washing machine only needs less than half the amount of water to get the best results: an objective reached to respect the environment.
Saving on detergent, water, energy and time
- To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine should be used with a full load. A full load instead of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on energy.
- The pre-wash cycle is only necessary on extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save on detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15% energy.
- Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving them to soak before washing will cut down the need to wash them at high temperatures. A programme at 60^ C instead of 90^ C or one at 40^ C instead of 60^ C will save up to 50% on energy.
- Use the correct quantity of detergent depending on the water hardness, how soiled the garments are and the amount of laundry you have, to avoid wastage and to protect the environment: despite being biodegradable, detergents do contain ingredients that alter the natural balance of the environment. In addition, avoid using fabric softener as much as possible.
- If you use your washing machine from late in the afternoon until the early hours of the morning, you will help reduce the electricity board's peak load. The Delay Start option (see page 7) helps to organise your wash cycles accordingly.
- If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer, select a high spin speed. Having the least water possible in your laundry will save you time and energy in the drying process.
Cutting off the water or electricity supply
- Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will limit the wear of your appliance's water system and also prevent leaks.
- Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and during all maintenance operations.
Cleaning your appliance
The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Caring for your appliance door and drum
- Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins and buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber that protects the pump, situated in the lower part of the same.
! Make sure that the wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:

natural_image
Simple line drawing of a container with two downward arrows indicating flow or movement (no text or symbols)- remove the cover panel (in the lower front of the washing machine), prizing it on both sides with a screwdriver. Do not force it.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with no visible text or symbols-
unscrew the lid rotating it in anti-clockwise. A little water may trickle out (about 1 liter). Put a little container under the hole.
-
clean the interior thoroughly.
- screw the lid back on.
- reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
Your washing machine could fail to work. Before calling for Assistance (see page 12), make sure the problem can't easily be solved by consulting the following list.
Problem
The washing machine won't start.
The wash cycle won't start.
The washing machine fails to load water (The wording H2O is displayed).
The washing machine continuously loads and unloads water.
The washing machine does not drain or spin.
The washing machine vibrates too much during the spin cycle.
The washing machine leaks.
In the event of an anomaly, an error code will appear, such as: F-01.
There is too much foam.
Possible causes/Solution:
- The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to make contact.
- There has been a power failure.
- The appliance door is not shut properly (the word DOOR is displayed).

- Switch off the machine and unplug the appliance; wait for approximately 1 minute then switch it on again. If the problem persists, contact Assistance.
- The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should bear the definition "for washing machines" or "hand and machine wash", or the like).
- You used too much detergent.
Before calling for Assistance:
- Check whether you can solve the problem on your own (see page 11);
- Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;
- If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Service Centre on the telephone number provided on the guarantee certificate.
! Always request the assistance of authorised servicemen.
