•CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

Important:

For your safety, you must comply with the instructions below.

— Before connecting your machine, you must ensure that your

installation’s electrical characteristics match those of your machine (see

the details provided on the information plate affixed to the back of the

machine).

The electrical installation must comply with the prevailing standards and

the Electricity Board’s regulations in the country concerned, particularly

as regards Earthing and installation in shower rooms.

We cannot be held responsible for any incident caused by the machine

being incorrectly earthed.

Advice:

Advice on the electrical installation of your machine

— Do not use an extension lead, adapter or multiple socket.

— Never cut out the Earth wire.

— The socket must be readily accessible but out of the reach of children.

If in any doubt, please contact your installer.

Important:

Your machine conforms to European Directives

2006/95/CE

(Low Voltage Directive) and

2004/108/CE

(Electromagnetic

Compatibility).

•INSTALLING YOUR MACHINE

Important:

If you are installing your machine next to another machine or a

unit, we recommend that you leave a gap between them to allow for

air circulation.

Advice:

We also strongly recommend that you do NOT:

— Install your machine in a damp, poorly ventilated room.

— Install your machine in an area where it could be subject to water

splashes.

— Install your machine on a carpeted floor.

If you cannot avoid doing this, please take every precaution to avoid

blocking air circulation at the bottom of the machine in order to ensure

that the internal components are well ventilated.

•Levelling the machine:

Use a spirit level to check that the floor is horizontal: maximum slope

2°, i.e. a discrepancy of approximately 1cm over the width and of 1.5cm

over the depth of the machine.

•Adjustable feet

Some machines are fitted with two adjustable feet at the front to enable

you to compensate for any unevenness in the floor. Proceed as follows

to adjust the feet to level and stabilize your machine:

— Set the machine on its castors (or tilt it slightly backwards if it does

not have retractable castors)

— Screw in or unscrew the feet to adjust the height to suit the shape of

the floor

(Diagram D13)

— Set the machine back on its feet and check that it is stable.

•TEXTILE MAINTENANCE CODES

— Washing : Never exceed the indicated temperatures

— Use of cold diluted bleach possible:

— Iron: Low Medium High

— Dry clean: mineral spirit perchlorethylene

all solvents

— NB: A crossed-out code indicates that it is forbidden

•LOADING YOUR WASHING

Perform these actions in the following order:

•Open the machine

— Check that the Programme selector is correctly positioned on “O”.

— Depending on the model, lift the opening handle or press the push

button on the front of the machine.

The lid will open.

— Open the drum by pressing the button on the front door.

•Insert your washing

For optimum washing performance, place your washing, preferably

sorted and folded, in the drum, distributing it evenly without heaping it

up. Mix large and small items to obtain an optimum, well-balanced spin.

•Close the drum

Ensure that the drum is correctly closed.

Important:

Check that the three hooks and the border of the button are

fully visible.

•LOADING THE WASHING PRODUCTS

Important:

(Diagram D14)

— The “WASH” container may contain powder or liquid but liquid

detergent should not be used for programmes WITH

Prewash and/or

WITH

“Delayed Start” (depending on the model).

— Concentrated softener should be diluted with warm water.

— Concentrated bleach must be diluted.

— To fill the product containers correctly, place the lid fully open.

— Do not exceed the MAX

level.

•Dispensing the detergent

The amount of detergent to be used depends on the hardness of the

water, the extent to which your washing is soiled and the amount of

washing to be washed.

Please refer to the dosing instructions on your pack of detergent.

Warning: in most cases, the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations

apply to the drum filled to the maximum. Adjust the dosage correctly to

the weight of the washing you have placed in the machine.

These recommendations will help you to avoid using too much detergent,

which causes foam to be produced. Too much foam can reduce your

machine’s performance and increase the length of the washing cycle

and the consumption of water.

•Detergents for woollens and delicate fabrics

You are recommended to use an appropriate detergent for washing

these fabrics (avoid placing such detergents directly on the drum because

they have an aggressive action on the metal).

•Before your first wash

Before making your first wash, we recommend that you carry out a

“COTTON 90 wash without pre-wash” and with no washing in the drum,

using a 1/2 measure of your usual detergent in order to eliminate any

residues from manufacturing that may remain in your machine.

•STANDARD COMPARISON TESTING PROGRAMME

Cotton (algodón) 60°C - 6 kg - no options – max spin.

To comply with the statement on the label, the tests are conducted in accordance with

European Directive 95/12/EEC at nominal capacity, ensuring complete use of the CEI

detergent from the start of the washing phase.

What is the difference in usage between a washer-dryer and a separate washing machine and dryer? Verified

The biggest advantage of a washer-dryer is that it takes less space. However, a separate dryer will be able to dry more than a washer-dryer. A washer-dryer also uses relatively more energy and requires more time.

Can I connect a washing machine to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a washing machine, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the washing machine is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Can I stack my dryer and washing machine? Verified

In general it is possible to directly stack a dryer and washing machine directly on top of each other. This only works with front loading models. However, it is advisable to use a fitting accessory to do so. This will prevent the machines from vibrating and falling off and also prevents damage to the bottom machine.
