• Water pressure must be between 0,05 MPa and 0,8 MPa.
• Make sure that a carpet do not obstruct the base of the machine and ventilation openings.
• The OFF condition is reached by placing the reference mark on the programmes control/knob in the vertical position. Any other different position of such control sets the machine in ON condition (only for models with programmes knob).

- The final part of a washer dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

WARNING: never stop a washer dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

• For the installation of built in appliances, please look at the specific paragraph.
• After installation, the appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
• The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the washer dryer, in such way that a full opening of the washer dryer door is restricted.

The "Door Security" indicator light is illuminated when the door is fully closed and the machine is ON. When "Start/Pause" is pressed on the machine with the door closed the indicator will flash momentarily and then illuminate.

If the door is not closed the indicator will continue to flash.

A special safety device prevents the door from being opened immediately after the end of the cycle. Wait for 2 minutes after the wash cycle has finished and the "Door Security" light has gone out before opening the door. At the end of the cycle turn the programme selector to "OFF".

"START/PAUSE" button

C

Press to start the selected cycle.

NOTE: When the "Start/Pause" button has been pressed, the appliance can take few seconds before it starts working.

Changing the settings after the programmes has started (PAUSE)

Press and hold the "Start/Pause" button for about 2 seconds, the flashing lights on the options buttons and time remaining indicator will show that the machine has been paused, adjust as required and press the "Start/Pause" button again to cancel the flashing lights. If you wish to add or remove items during washing, wait 2 minutes until the safety device unlocks the door.

When you have carried out the manoeuvre, close the door, press "Start/Pause" button and the appliance will continue working where it left off.

CANCELLING THE PROGRAMME

To cancel the programme, set the selector to the "OFF" position.

Select a different programme.

Re-set the programme selector to the "OFF" position.

The option buttons should be selected before pressing the "Start/Pause" button.

"STAIN WASH" Button

D

By pressing this button, which can only be activated in the Cotton cycles, the sensors in the new system come into operation. They affect both the selected temperature, keeping it at a constant level throughout the wash cycle, and the mechanical function of the drum.

The drum is made to turn at two different speeds at crucial moments. When the detergent enters the garments, the drum rotates in such a way that the detergent is distributed in a uniform manner; during the wash and rinse procedures, however, the speed increases in order to maximise the cleaning action. Thanks to this special system, the efficiency of the wash procedure is improved WITHOUT ANY INCREASE IN THE LENGTH OF THE PROGRAM.

"EXTRA RINSE" button

E

This option allows you to add one rinse at the end of the washing cycle and is useful for people with delicate and sensitive skin, for which a small amount of detergent residue can cause irritations or allergies.

It is advisable to also use this function for the children clothes and for the washing of heavily soiled items, which requires a lot of detergent to be used, or for the washing of toweling items whose fibres mostly have the tendency to hold the detergent.

"DELAY START" button

F

This button allows you to pre-programme the wash cycle to delay the start of the cycle for up to 24 hours.

To delay the start use the following procedure:

Set the required programme.

Press the button once to activate it (h00 appears on the display) and then press it again to set a 1 hour delay (h01 appears on the display); the pre-set delay increases by 1 hour each time the button is pressed, until h24 appears on the display, at which point pressing the button again will reset the delay start to zero.

Confirm by pressing the "Start/Pause" button (the light on the display starts to flash). The countdown will begin and when it has finished the programme will start automatically.

It is possible to cancel the delay start by taking the following action:

Press and hold the button for 5 seconds until the display will show the settings for the programme selected.

At this stage it is possible to start the programme previously selected by pressing the "Start/Pause" button or to cancel the process by setting the selector to the "OFF" position and then selecting another programme.

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.

"TEMPERATURE SELECTION" button

When a programme is selected the relevant indicator will light up to show the recommended wash temperature.

The Temperature button can be used to decrease or increase the temperature of your chosen wash cycle.

Each time the button is pressed, the new temperature level is shown on the Wash Temperature Indicator.

If you want carry out a cold wash all the indicators must be off.

"DRYING SELECTION" button

With the programme selector not in the "OFF" position, press the button to select the required drying programme; an indicator will light to display the drying result selected each time you press the button.

To cancel the selection before the start of a drying programme, press the button repeatedly until the indicators go out or return the programme selector to the "OFF" position.

To cancel the cycle during the drying phase, hold the button down for 2 seconds until the cooling indicator lights up; given the high temperature inside the drum, we recommend that you allow the dryer to complete the cool down period before returning the programme selector to the "OFF" position and removing the laundry.

"SPIN SPEED" button

The spin cycle is very important to remove as much water as possible from the laundry without damaging the fabrics. You can adjust the spin speed of the machine to suit your needs.

By pressing this button, it is possible to reduce the maximum speed, and if you wish, the spin cycle can be cancelled. To reactivate the spin cycle press the button until you reach the spin speed you would like to set. To prevent damage to the fabrics, it is not possible to increase the speed over that which is automatically suitable during the selection of the program.

It is possible to modify the spin speed without to pausing the machine.

Note:

The machine is fitted with a special electronic device, which prevents the spin cycle should the load be unbalanced. This reduces the noise and vibration in the machine and so prolongs the life of your machine.

“DIGITAL” Display

7) WASH TIME

Once the programme has been selected the indicator light will automatically show the wash time set for that programme. Selecting a different wash time the relevant indicator will light up.

8) DRYING PROGRAMME INDICATORS

The indicators display the type of the drying programme:

The washer dryers incorporate an Automatic Sensor Drying function which takes the guesswork out of setting the drying time. You simply select the degree of dryness you require and the dryer automatically switches off when that level is reached. For added flexibility there are 3 Sensor Drying levels to choose from:

= Extra dry programme

= Cupboard dry programme

= Iron dry programme

USEFUL TIPS:

Once the programme option has been selected, press the "Start/Pause" button. The appliance will then calculate the time to the end of the selected programme based upon a full dry load. During the cycle the appliance will update the time to suit the actual load size and dampness of the fabrics.

Timed programmes:

Alternatively you may select a pre-determined time for the drying cycle. The Timed Drying programmes may be set to the following times:

120 minutes – 90 minutes – 60 minutes – 30 minutes:

Programme selector

For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see table of washing cycle programmes).

COTTONS

The Cottons programme is designed for maximum washing and rinsing efficiency. With spin cycles in between, the programme guarantees the laundry is rinsed perfectly. The final spin cycle ensures laundry is spun dry as much as possible up to the maximum speed.

The Cotton programme includes a Prewash cycle. This option is particularly useful for really dirty loads and can be used independently of the main wash programme. Additional detergent for the Prewash part of the programme should be added to the first compartment of the soap drawer labelled "I" (please refer to the section of this manual entitled "Detergent"). We recommend you use only 20% of the quantity used for the main wash programme.

HIGH HEAT

Cotton Dry

High temperature drying programme for Cottons and linen items, always refer to the care label

Automatic Variable Capacity

The washing machine is fitted with an automatic reduction in consumption system (known as Automatic Variable Capacity).

This system enables the machine to use the amount of water needed to wash and rinse the laundry in relation to the particular load.

This results in a reduction in the amount of water used and electricity needed to heat it to the minimum required, without in any way compromising the washing and rinsing performance.

In fact the amount of water and electricity used will always be appropriate for the amount of washing.

The washing machine therefore ensures you achieve excellent washing results whilst respecting the environment and saving you money.

Detergent drawer

P

The detergent drawer is split into 3 compartments:

• the compartment labelled "I" is for prewash detergent;
• the compartment labelled " & is for special additives, fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc;
• the compartment labelled "II" is for main wash detergent.

Simple line drawing of a spherical object with internal geometric patterns (no text or symbols)

Note: only put liquid products in the compartment labelled “ ✿”. The machine is programmed to automatically take up additives during the final rinse stage for all wash cycles.

Detergents, washing aids and amounts to use

Choice of detergent

General purpose detergents

• Powder detergents, for a thorough wash, with bleaching agent, particularly suitable for use in hot wash programmes (60°C and over), for heavily soiled and stained laundry.
• Liquid detergents, particularly suitable for grease stains, such as greasy skin marks, cosmetics and oil.
  These detergents are not suitable for washing stained laundry, as they do not contain bleach.
• Biological detergents, not all the products available give a really thorough wash.

Additional laundry aids

• Water softener, means less detergent can be used where water hardness is classed as hard to very hard.
• Prewash substances, for the programmed treatment of stains prior to the main wash. Using them means the subsequent wash can be at a low temperature or with bleach-free detergents.
• Fabric softener, prevents static build-up in synthetic fabrics and softens fabrics. If you own a tumble dryer, clothes are softened even without the use of a fabric softener.

Do not put solvents in the washing machine!

Keep detergents and other laundry products out of children's reach.

Before pouring in the detergent check that there are no foreign bodies in the detergent drawer.

Dosage details are usually shown on the detergent packaging. Follow those instructions.

Dosages

Only use detergents which are suitable for use in a washing machine.

You will obtain the best results from your wash with the minimum use of chemical products and the best care for your laundry if you take into consideration the degree of soiling as well as the type of detergent to choose.

The amount of detergent to use depends on:

• water hardness: depending on the hardness of the water and the type of detergent used, it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent.
• the degree of soiling: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent used depending on the degree of soiling.
• amount of laundry: it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent when washing only a small amount of laundry.

Dosage for powder detergent

For normal and low concentration detergents: for normally soiled laundry choose a programme without prewash.

Put the detergent in compartment "II" of the drawer.

For heavily soiled laundry, choose a programme with prewash.

Put 1/4 of the detergent in compartment "I", 3/4 in compartment "II" of the drawer.

When using water softeners, first put in the detergent, then add the softener to compartment "II".

For highly concentrated detergents not in single dose format, follow what is shown on pack exactly as regards type and amount of dosage.

To avoid the difficulty of checking if the detergent has been taken up, use the dosage aids provided in the detergent packaging.

Liquid detergent dosage

Liquid detergents may be used in accordance with the instructions on the relevant packaging, for all programmes without prewash, by using the special container which is placed in the drum or, for those models that have it, in the special insert for liquid detergents.

Recommendations on the use of detergent at various temperatures

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60^ C or above and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results. For washes between 40^ C and 60^ C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling. Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels of soiling. For washing at temperatures below 40^ C we recommend the use of liquid detergents or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing. For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics. For dosage amounts please follow the instructions on the detergent package label.

Useful advice for users

Tips on using your domestic appliance in the most environmentally-friendly and economical way

Do a full load in your washing machine

To prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent we recommend that you put a full load in your washing machine, not exceed the recommended maximum load size. Up to 50% energy saving can be made with one full load compared to two half load washes

When is prewashing really needed?

Only with particularly dirty loads!

Energy savings of 5 to 15% are made by not selecting the prewash option for normal soiled laundry.

Which wash temperature should you choose?

Using stain removers before machine washing reduces the need to wash at temperatures over 60^ C.

Energy savings of up to 50% can be made by using a 60°C wash temperature rather than 90°C

Before using a drying programme...

SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before using a drying programme.

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 95°

Coloured, easy-care materials 60° 50° 40°

Delicates and wool 40° 30°

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.

Warning: 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.

OK

- 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

WARNING:

Indications given are general, therefore some practice is needed for the best drying results. We recommend setting a lower drying time than indicated, when first using, so as to establish the degree of dryness required. We recommend not to dry fabrics that fray easily, such as rugs or garments with a deep pile, to avoid air duct clogging.

The water is then conveyed to the drain circuit, wich is sealed and therefore, no steam can be released outside.

Important

Never open the door after the drying cycle has begun - wait until the cool down period provided for by the cycle. ✕

Only dry pre-spun laundry

The washer/dryer can perform two types of drying:

1 Cotton, terry towelling, linen, hemp fabrics, etc... Cotton Dry symbol on programme dial. Advisory note

During drying phase the drum will accelerate to a higher speed to distribute the load and to optimize the drying performance

2 Mixed fabrics (synthetics/cotton), synthetic fabrics Synthetics Dry symbol on programme dial.

Drying cycle

The correct way to dry:

- Open door.

- Fill with up to 5 kg - in case of large items (e.g. sheets) or very absorbent items (e.g. towels or jeans), it is a good idea to reduce the load.

- Close door.

- Turn programme dial to Cotton Dry cotton.

Select the degree of dryness that you require.

The time remaining shown on the digital display will show the time remaining for a full load. However, this will be corrected during the cycle once the appliance assesses the weight and dampness of the laundry.

USEFUL TIPS:

Do not dry unwashed items in the washer dryer.

Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the washer dryer.

Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the washer dryer.

Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.

The final part of a washer dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

WARNING:

Never stop a washer dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

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) 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
2) Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops in the vertical position. Remove and clean.
3) After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end of the filter clockwise.

Illustration of a washing machine with a hand holding a button, showing a circular action diagram below (no text or symbols)

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.

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.

During drying phase the drum will accelerate to a higher speed to distribute the load and to optimize the drying performance

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.
