CONNECTION TO THE MAINS WATER SUPPLY AND DRAINAGE

installation and assembly

CONNECTION TO THE

MAINS WATER SUPPLY

The water supply hose is inside the drum:

a Connect the bent end of the hose to the threaded inlet of the electrovalve located at the rear of the washing machine.
b Connect the other end of the hose to the water intake. Then securely tighten the connection nut.

Important

It is important that the drain hose bend is correctly fastened to the outlet, to prevent any risk of it becoming detached and causing flooding.

If your washing machine has a hot water intake, connect the hose with the red threaded end to the hot water tap, and to the electrovalve with the red filter.

The washing machine must be connected to the mains water supply, using the new supply hoses supplied with the appliance. Do not use water supply hoses that have been used before. For your washing machine to work properly, the mains water pressure must be between 0.05 and 1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/cm ^2 ).

DRAINAGE

CONNECTION

a It is recommended that you have a fixed drainage outlet 50 tom 70 cm from the floor.

Avoid the drain hose being too tight, kinked or restricted. Use the bend supplied.

3 LEVELLING THE WASHING MACHINE AND CONNECTING IT TO THE MAINS ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

installation and assembly

LEVELLING

Important

a First of all, we recommend that you fix and level the rear feet. When they are properly fixed, secure the metal locknut tightly to the top part.
b Put the washing machine into its niche. Dampen the floor to help you move the machine into its final position.
c Finally level and secure the front feet in the same way as you levelled the rear feet.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Consult the specifications plate located on the hatch door of the washing machine before making the electrical connections. Ensure that the voltage reaching the plug is the same as that on the plate.

Do not remove the specifications plate. The information on it is important.

Important

It is very important to correctly earth the washing machine.

The electrical installation, plug, socket, fuses or automatic switch and counter must be correctly dimensioned for the maximum power indicated on the specifications plate.

Do not plug the washing machine plug into the socket with wet or damp hands.

To remove the power cord, pull on the body of the plug.

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a cord or special unit provided by either the manufacturer or your after-sales service.

With built-in washing machines, the plug must be accessible after installation.

4 PRE-CLEANING

PRE-CLEANING

When your washing machine has been correctly installed, we recommend that you pre-clean the machine.

This is to check that the installation, the connections and the drainage are all correct, and to thoroughly clean the inside of the washing machine before any wash programmes are run (see the operating instructions on the following pages).

a Press ON/OFF button.
b Select the normal programme at 60°C.
c Press the start/pause button.

1 PREPARING GARMENTS FOR WASHING

PREPARATION

Important

Before placing the clothes in the drum, make sure all the pockets are empty. Any small objects may block the drain pump.

Illustration of a hand holding a small object with a shaded area underneath (no text or symbols)

SORTING THE CLOTHES

a Sort the clothes according to fabric and how they are made.

We recommend using the delicate programmes for sensitive fabrics. There is a special wool programme for woollens.

b Sort clothes according to how soiled they are.

• Wash lightly soiled garments using a short programme.
• Use a programme without prewash for medium-soiled garments.
• Wash heavily soiled garments using a long programme with prewash.

c Sort your clothes according to colour.

Wash whites and coloureds separately.

Importante

Make sure beforehand that your woollens can be machine-washed.

Important

We recommend loading the washing machine to its full capacity. This means savings on water and energy.

Whenever possible, we recommend that you wash garments of different sizes within the same wash programme. This improves the washing action and also aids the correct distribution of the garments in the drum when spin-drying, and the washing machine will therefore be quieter.

It is a good idea to put small garments in a wash bag.

2 USING DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES

using the appliance and practical tips

DETERGENT

AND ADDITIVES

a Your washing machine's detergent dispenser has three compartments.
b If you are going to use liquid detergent you must close the wash compartment flap. Take the blue tab protruding from the bottom of the compartment between 2 fingers and pull outwards as far as it will go. Release the flap and it will remain in the vertical position and prevent the liquid detergent from getting out. It must be open for powdered detergent. Put it in the horizontal position, pressing the top tab with your finger and pushing it back as far as it will go.
c Put the detergent, either liquid or powder, or additive into the detergent dispenser before starting the wash programme.

Important

The liquid level must never be higher than the MAX mark printed on the dispenser wall.

Remember that the amount of detergent to be used will always depend on:

■ The amount of clothes to be washed.
■ How heavily the clothes are soiled.
■ The water hardness (information about water hardness is available from the relevant local authorities).

Important

We recommend the use of a decalcifying product if the water hardness is high in your area.

Illustration of a hand washing a washing machine with a cloth partially inserted (no text or symbols visible)

eco-note

Remember that concentrated detergents exist which are more environment- and nature-friendly.

The use of more detergent than necessary will not improve your washing results, and apart from costing you

money it will have a negative effect on the preservation of the environment.

We therefore recommend you follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions.

7 WASH PROGRAMME PHASES AND POWER CUTS

using the appliance

PROGRAMME PHASES

When the programme is running you can see which phase it is at on the display, as well as how long there is to the end of the programme.

The active phases will appear successively at the top of the display as the programme progresses. The time remaining until the end of the programme will also appear on the display. It updates at regular intervals, but not minute by minute.

Any option button can be selected provided the wash phase in which it takes effect has not been passed and when the programme accepts the option.

Pressing the delay button during the wash has no effect on the washing machine.

Pressing the start/pause button during the wash activates the PAUSE function.

important

If you change the wash programme during the wash using the selector, the PAUSE function is activated and the programme is cancelled.

If you need to add or remove a garment, press the start/pause button and make sure that the water level is not above the door overflow level and that the temperature inside is not high. Press the start/pause button again to restart the wash from the same cycle phase it had stopped at.

POWER CUTS

If there is a power cut, when the electricity comes back on the washing machine will continue to run from where it left off (it has several hours of memory). The same will happen if the ON/OFF button is pressed.

warnings

■ Level the washing machine by adjusting the feet to reduce the noise caused by spin-drying.
■ Try and wash clothes of different sizes in the same wash programme to favour the distribution of the clothes inside the drum during spin-drying.

All the models have a safety system for spin-drying that prevents spin-drying from being carried out if the distribution of the clothes inside the drum is too concentrated. This prevents the appliance from vibrating too much.

If you find that the clothes are not properly wrung out, try spin-drying them again after having distributed the clothes more evenly in the drum.

washing machine maintenance and cleaning

MAINTENANCE

After each wash, leave the door open for a while to allow the air to circulate freely inside the machine.

From time to time, depending on the hardness of your water, it is recommendable to run a full wash cycle using a decalcifying product. This will extend the life of your washing machine.

Important

The washing machine should be disconnected from the mains electricity supply before any cleaning or maintenance is carried out.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE

The outside of the washing machine should be cleaned with warm soapy water or a gentle cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaning products or solvents. It should then be thoroughly dried with a soft cloth.

Important

When there have been spillages of detergent or additives from the dispenser onto the washing machine cabinet, clean them up right away as they are corrosive.

washing machine safety and trouble

safety and troubleshooting

If you detect any problems with your washing machine, you will probably be able to rectify them yourself by consulting the following instructions.

If this is not the case, unplug the appliance and contact the TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICE.

Important

Never open up the appliance. There is no fuse or similar component inside that can be replaced by the user.

Indicator	Problems
FO1	No water coming in
FO2	Does not drain or spin-dry
CO3	Does not spin-dry
FO4	Does not start
FO5 F10	Call the Technical Assistance Service

PROBLEMS

Why won't the washing machine start?

Why is the washing machine vibrating or making too much noise?

This may be due to the following:

■ The washing machine is not plugged into the mains or there is no voltage in the mains supply.
■ The Start/Pause button has not been pressed.
■ When the washing machine door is not properly closed, F04 appears on the display. Check that the door has been closed properly.

This may be due to the following:

■ The blocking and transport screws have not been removed.
■ The washing machine has not been correctly levelled.
During spin-drying the motor makes a “whistling” noise which is normal due to the mechanical action of the motor itself.

Why doesn't the washing machine take in water?

■ When there is no water coming in F01 will appear on the display.

■ Indicator F01, no water coming in, this may be due to a cut in the water supply, a tap turned off or a blocked water inlet filter.

The possible solutions are as follows: wait for the water supply to be reconnected, turn on the tap, or remove the water inlet hose and clean the filter.

Why doesn't the washing machine drain or spin dry?

■ When F02 appears on the display.

The reasons for the F02 indicator may be the following: washing machine drain pump blocked, building drainage pipes blocked, or incorrect pump electrical connection.

■ Solution: if the pump is blocked, gain access to it as described in section 2, maintaining and cleaning the appliance.

Why doesn't the machine spin-dry?

■ When it does not spin-dry, C03 appears on the display.

This may be due to an uneven distribution of clothes in the drum and may cause an excessive level of vibrations.

■ The solution is to select a spin-drying programme.

Why can't I see any water in the drum during the wash?

This is due to the fact that the washing machine is provided with a system which is able to adapt to the load and type of fabrics, adjusting the levels of water and energy used, in order to preserve the environment.

So, although the water level you can see through the hatch may look low, there is no cause for concern as washing and rinsing efficiency will still be optimum.

Why is there still some water in the dispenser?

Why can't I open the hatch immediately after the wash has finished?

Other indications

This may be because the dispenser needs cleaning. This simple operation is described in Maintaining and cleaning the appliance.

1. Cleaning the detergent dispenser.

Washing machines today are provided with safety systems for users. One of them is that the washing machine cannot be opened until it is certain that the drum is quite still. This is why the hatch cannot be opened for 2 minutes.

■ The washing machine can detect other indications. When this happens a number of other indicators appear on the display: F05, F06..., F10.
■ This information may be due to very different reasons.
- Check if the problem is repeated and in this case call the AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE.
