HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS  
Sorting out the laundry  
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing in-  
structions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.  
Before loading the laundry  
Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the wash.  
New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately  
the first time.  
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.  
Remove persistent stains before washing.  
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.  
Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.  
Removing stains  
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable  
to treat them prior to washing.  
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a  
special detergent then rub in the soap and water.  
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and  
dab the stain; treat several times.  
 
20  
Helpful hints and tips  
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab  
the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.  
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used cold. Be careful  
with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been  
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.  
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only).  
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).  
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone1), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab  
the stain.  
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Treat  
any residual marks with bleach.  
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse.  
Treat any residual marks with bleach.  
Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone1), then with acetic  
acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.  
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with de-  
tergent paste.  
Detergents and additives  
Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quan-  
tities to avoid waste and protect the environment.  
Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can up-  
set the delicate balance of nature.  
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.),  
the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling.  
All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:  
• powder detergents for all types of fabric  
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and woollens  
• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all  
types of fabric, or special for woollens only.  
The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the  
dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.  
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.  
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the con-  
centrated detergent.  
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not ex-  
ceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.  
Quantity of detergent to be used  
The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of  
soiling and hardness of the water used.  
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on quantities to use.  
Use less detergent if:  
• you are washing a small load  
• the laundry is lightly soiled  
• large amounts of foam form during washing.  
1) do not use acetone on artificial silk  
 
Care and cleaning  
21  
Degrees of water hardness  
Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness of  
the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from  
your local authority. If the water hardness degree is medium or high we suggest you to add  
a water softener following always the manufacturer’s instructions. When the degree of  
hardness is soft, readjust the quantity of the detergent.  
CARE AND CLEANING  
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out  
any cleaning or maintenance work.  
Descaling  
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water soft-  
ening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according  
to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the forma-  
tion of lime deposits.  
After each wash  
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming  
inside the appliance. Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to preserve the door  
seal.  
Maintenance wash  
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside  
the drum.  
We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.  
To run a maintenance wash:  
• The drum should be empty of laundry.  
• Select the hottest cotton wash programme.  
• Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.  
External cleaning  
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thor-  
oughly.  
Do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet.  
Detergent dispenser drawer  
The detergent dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.  
1. Remove the detergent dispenser drawer by pulling it firmly.  
 
22  
Care and cleaning  
2. Remove the conditioner insert from the  
middle compartment.  
3. Clean all parts with water.  
4. Put the conditioner insert in as far as it  
will go, so that it is firmly in place.  
5. Clean all parts of the washing machine,  
especially the nozzles in the top of the  
washing-in chamber, with a brush.  
6. Insert the detergent dispenser drawer in  
the guide rails and push it in.  
Washing drum  
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to rusting foreign bodies in the washing or tap  
water containing iron.  
Do not clean the drum with acidic descaling agents, scouring agents containing chlorine or  
iron or steel wool.  
1. Remove any rust deposits on the drum with a cleaning agent for stainless steel.  
2. Run a washing cycle without any washing to clean off any cleaning agent residues.  
Programme: Short Cotton Programme at maximum temperature and add approx. 1/4  
measuring cup of detergent.  
Door seal  
Check from time to time the door seal and objects  
that could be trapped in the fold.  
Drain pump  
The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if:  
• the appliance does not empty and/or spin;  
 
Care and cleaning  
23  
• the appliance makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety pins,  
coins etc. blocking the pump;  
• a problem with water draining is detected (see chapter “What to do if...” for more de-  
tails).

Problem  
Possible cause/Solution  
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has  
been used.  
• Increase the detergent quantity or use an-  
other one.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to  
washing.  
• Use commercial products to treat the stub-  
born stains.  
Unsatisfactory washing results:  
The correct temperature was not selected.  
• Check if you have selected the correct tem-  
perature.  
Excessive laundry load.  
• Introduce into the drum less laundry.

distributed in the drum, the machine will not  
spin.  
• Redistribute the laundry.  
The load is too small.  
• Add more items, redistribute the load man-  
ually and then select the spinning pro-  
gramme.  
 
Technical data  
29  
Problem  
Possible cause/Solution  
The machine is fitted with a type of motor  
which makes an unusual noise compared with  
other traditional motors. This new motor en-  
sures a softer start and more even distribution  
of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as  
well as increased stability of the machine.  
The machine makes an unusual noise:  
Machines based on modern technology operate  
very economically using very little water with-  
out affecting performance.  
No water is visible in the drum:  
The display shows the alarm code  
Anti-flooding system has activated.

authority and building regulations require-  
ments. Check the minimum water pressure  
required for safe operation of the appliance  
in the chapter "Technical Data".  
Water-stop device  
The inlet hose is provided with a water stop de-  
vice, which protects against damage caused by  
water leaks in the hose which could develop due  
to natural ageing of the hose. This fault is shown  
by a red sector in the window «A». Should this oc-  
cur, turn the water tap off and refer to your Serv-  
ice Centre to replace the hose.  
A
Water drainage  
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:  
1. Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the  
machine.  
In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying.  
 
Electrical connection  
35  
This could be done by tying it to the tap  
with a piece of string or attaching it to  
the wall.  
2. In a sink drain pipe branch. This  
branch must be above the trap so that  
the bend is at least 60 cm above the  
ground.  
3. Directly into a drain pipe at a height  
of not less than 60 cm and not more  
than 90 cm.  
The end of the drain hose must always be  
ventilated, i.e. the inside diameter of the  
drain pipe must be larger than the outside  
diameter of the drain hose.  
The drain hose must not be kinked.  
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose and  
joining piece is available from your local Service Centre.

• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent,  
water and time (the environment is protected too!).  
• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.  
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can  
then be washed at a lower temperature.  
• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the  
quantity of laundry being washed.
