DRAINAGECONNECTION

It is important that the drain hosebend is correctly fastened to theoutlet, to prevent any risk of itbecoming detached and causingflooding.

If your washing machine has a hotwater intake, connect the hose withthe red threaded end to the hot watertap, and to the electrovalve with thered filter.

The washing machine must beconnected to the mains water supply,using the new supply hoses suppliedwith the appliance. Do not use watersupply hoses that have been usedbefore. For your washing machine towork properly, the mains waterpressure must be between 0.05 and1MPa (0.05 and 10 Kgr/cm2).

We recommend loading the washingmachine to its full capacity. Thismeans savings on water and energy.Whenever possible, we recommendthat you wash garments of differentsizes within the same washprogramme. This improves thewashing action and also aids thecorrect distribution of the garmentsin the drum when spin-drying, andthe washing machine will thereforebe quieter.It is a good idea to put small garmentsin a wash bag.

Before using the dryingprogramme, first checkthe label on the garmentto make sure it can betumble dried.

Make surebeforehandthat yourwoollens canbe machine-washed.

a Your washing machines detergentdispenser has three compartments.

b Put the detergent or additive into thedetergent dispenser before starting thewash programme.

c Liquid detergents may also be used inthis washing machine. An optionaldetergent dispenser is to be used forthis, which can be obtained from theTechnical Service Network.

Place this optional dispenser inside thewash compartment.

The level of liquid must never behigher than the MAX mark printed onthe dispenser wall.

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

The amount of clothes to be washed. How heavily the clothes are soiled. The hardness of the water (Information on

water hardness in your area can be obtainedfrom the competent local authorities).

We recommend the use of adecalcifying product if the waterhardness is high in your area.

5 WASH/DRY PROGRAM STATUS AND POWER CUTSusing the appliance and practical tips

PROGRAMMEPHASES

Once started, current programme status andtime remaining till completion can beascertained from the screen.

The active phases will appear successively atthe top of the display as the programmeprogresses. The time remaining until the endof the programme will also appear on thedisplay. It updates at regular intervals, but notminute by minute.

Any option button can be selected providedthe wash phase in which it takes effect hasnot been passed and when the programmeaccepts the option.

Pressing the start/stop button during the washactivates the PAUSE function.

POWER CUTS

If there is a power cut, the washing machinewill continue to operate from the point at whichit stopped when power is reconnected (itsmemory lasts for a few hours).

warnings Level the washing machine by adjusting the

feet to reduce the noise caused by spin-drying.

Try and wash clothes of different sizes inthe same wash programme to favour thedistribution of the clothes inside the drumduring spin-drying.

All the models have a safety system forspin-drying that prevents spin-drying frombeing carried out if the distribution of theclothes inside the drum is too concentrated.This prevents the appliance from vibrating toomuch.If you find that the clothes are not properlywrung out, try spin-drying them again afterhaving distributed the clothes more evenly inthe drum.

If the programme is changed on theselector dial during the washing anddrying process, the washer-dryer willgo onto PAUSE status and theprogramme will be cancelled.

If you need to add or remove agarment, press the start/stop buttonand make sure that the water level isnot above the door overflow level andthat the temperature inside is nothigh. Press the start/stop button againto restart the wash from the samecycle phase it had stopped at.

If you detect any problems withyour washing machine, you willprobably be able to rectify themyourself by consulting the followinginstructions.

If this is not the case, unplug theappliance and contact theTECHNICAL ASSISTANCESERVICE.

This may be due to the following:

Check the door is properly shut.

The washing machine is not plugged into the mains orthere is no voltage in the mains supply.

The Start/Stop button has not been pressed.

If the washing machine door is not properly shut, F04will appear on the display.

Why doesnt the washingmachine take in water?

Why doesnt the washingmachine drain or spin-dry?

Why doesnt the washingmachine spin-dry?

Why cant I see any water inthe drum during the wash?

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

The possible solutions are as follows: wait for the watersupply to be reconnected, turn on the tap, or removethe water inlet hose and clean the filter.If this failure is detected, F01 will appear on the display.

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

Solution: if the pump is blocked, gain access to it asdescribed in section 2, maintaining and cleaning theappliance.If this failure is detected, F02 will appear on the display.

This may be due to an uneven distribution of clothesin the drum and may cause an excessive level ofvibrations.

The solution is to select a spin-drying programme.If this failure is detected, C3 will appear on the display.

This is due to the fact that the washing machine is providedwith a system which is able to adapt to the load and typeof 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 hatchmay look low, there is no cause for concern as washingand rinsing efficiency will still be optimum.

89

safety and troubleshooting

This may be because the dispenser needs cleaning. Thissimple operation is described in Maintaining and cleaningthe appliance.1- Cleaning the detergent dispenser.

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

This time is for guidance purposes only and may be affectedby the conditions under which the selected programme isbeing run, e.g. initial water temperature, size of load orunbalance caused by the garments during spin drying.

The washing machine can detect other indications. Whenthis happens a number of other indicators appear on thedisplay: F05, F06..., F10. If this happens, call the OfficialTechnical Service.

Why is there still some waterin the dispenser?

Why cant I open the hatchimmediately after the washhas finished?

Why doesnt the remainingtime shown on the clockcoincide with the real timeleft until the selected cyclefinishes?

Other indications

When your appliance is of no further use, it shouldnot be disposed of together with general domesticwaste.

It can be taken, free of charge, to a specific wastecollection centre, run by your local authority, ordealers who provide this service.

Disposing of waste domestic appliances separatelymeans avoiding possible negative consequencesfor the environment and health, derived fromincorrect disposal. This will enable the materialsin them to be treated and recycled, obtainingimportant savings in energy and resources.

To highlight the obligation of collaborating withselective waste collection, the product is markedwith a symbol to warn against using traditionalcontainers for disposing of the appliance.

For further information, contactyour local authority or the shopwhere you purchased the product.
