30 MINUTE RAPID PROGRAMME

The 30 minute rapid programme allows a complete washing

cycle to be carried out in approximately 30 minutes, with up

to a maximum load of 2 kg and a temperature of 40°C.

When selecting the "30 minute rapid" programme, please

note that we recommend you use only 20% of the

recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.

“A” WASH 59 '

This specially designed programme maintains the high quality

wash performance identified with the “A” rating whilst greatly

reducing the wash time. The programme is designed for a

maximum load of 3 kg with a temperature of 60°C and

concludes with 2 rinses and a high speed spin sequence.

AA SPECIAL PROGRAMME at 40°C

This special programme has been studied to allow you to

obtain the best washing performance, even at full load, as

the 60°C Cotton programme (the normative cycle),but with

the advantage of an energy saving due to 40°C

temperature,instead of 60°C.

The length of this programme lasts almost the 3 hours.

“ALL 40°C” PROGRAMME

This is an exclusive system and involves 2 great advantages

for the consumer:

• to be able to wash together different type of fabrics (e.g.

cotton + synthetic etc…) FAST COLOUREDS;

•to wash with a considerable energy saving.

The “All 40°C” is an eco friendly programme that has low

energy consumption (850W/h). The programme achieves this

by using a low water temperature combined with periods of

inactive soaking and short periods of drum cycling over a

period of three hours.

Important:

•the first washing of new coloureds fabrics must be done

separately;

• in every case, never mix NON-FAST COLOUREDS fabrics.

Drying

Note: Dispensers used for concentrated powders and liquid

detergents must be removed from the drum before

commencing the tumble drying programmes.

The drum changes direction during the drying cycle to

prevent the laundry from tangling and hence produce even

drying. Cool air is used during the last ten minutes of the

drying cycle to minimise creasing.

High Heat

High temperature drying programme for Cottons and linen

items, always refer to the care label

Low Heat

Low temperature drying programme for synthetics and mixed

fibres, always refer to the care label.

CHAPTER 8

SELECTION

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).

RESISTANTS FABRICS

The Cotton 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.

MIXED AND SYNTHETIC FABRICS

The main wash and the rinse gives best results thanks to the

rotation rhythms of the drum and to the water levels.

A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.

SPECIAL “RINSE” PROGRAMME

This programme carries out three rinses with a intermediate spin

(which can be reduced or excluded by using the correct button). It

can be used for rinsing any type of fabric,eg.use after hand-washing.

SPECIAL “SPIN” PROGRAMME

Programme “SPIN” carries out a maximum spin (which can be

reduced by using the correct button).

DRAIN ONLY

This programme drains out the water.

SPECIAL DELICATE FIBRES

This is a new wash cycle which alternates washing and soaking

and is particularly recommended for very delicate fabrics such as

Pure Machine Washable Wool. The wash cycle and rinses are

carried out with high water levels to ensure best results.

WOOLMARK PROGRAMME

The special cycle, certified by WOOLMARK, enables to

thoroughly wash garments without damaging them.The cycle

comprises of alternate periods of activity and pauses.The

programme has a maximum temperature of 30° and

concludes with 3 rinses and a short spin.

SPECIAL “HAND WASH”

This washing machine also has a gentle Hand Wash

programme cycle.This programme allows a complete

washing cycle for garments specified as “Hand Wash only” on

the fabric care label. The programme has a temperature of

30°C and concludes with 3 rinses and a slow spin.

CHAPTER 10

THE PRODUCT

IMPORTANT:

When washing heavy rugs, bed spreads and other heavy

articles, it is advisable not to spin.

Do not dry wool,items with special padding delicate silk

irems; rubber, plastic, including some types of plastic

poppers on duvet covers and foam plastic items are not

suitable for tumble drying.

To be machine-washed,woollen garments and other articles

in wool must bear the “Machine Washable Label”.

IMPORTANT:

When sorting articles ensure that:

- there are no metal objects in the washing (e.g.

brooches, safety pins, pins, coins etc.).

- cushion covers are buttoned, zips and hooks are

closed, loose belts and long tapes on dressing gowns

are knotted.

- runners from curtains are removed.

- attention is paid to garment labels.

- when sorting, any tough stains should be removed prior

to washing using stain removers only recommended on

label.

CHAPTER 9

DETERGENT DRAWER

The detergent draw 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.

If liquid detergents are used, please insert the special

container supplied into the compartment marked “II” in the

detergent drawer.This ensures that the liquid detergent

enters the drum at the right stage of the wash cycle.

This special container must be inserted when using the

“RINSE” program as a BLEACHING cycle.

NOTE: SOME DETERGENTS ARE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE.

FOR THESE, WE RECOMMEND YOU USE THE SPECIAL

DISPENSER WHICH IS PLACED IN THE DRUM.

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.

WASHING

VARIABLE CAPACITY

This washing machine automatically adapts the level of the water

to the type and quantity of washing.In this way it is also possible to

obtain a “personalized” wash from an energy saving point of view.

This system gives a decrease in energy consumption and a

sensible reduction in washing times.

EXAMPLE:

A net bag should be used for particularly delicate fabrics.

Let us suppose that the washing consists of HEAVILY SOILED

COTTON (tough stains should be removed with suitable stain

removal).

It is advisable not to wash a load made up entirely of articles

in towelling fabric which absorb a lot of water and become

too heavy.

● Open the detergent drawer .

● Put 120 g in the main wash compartment marked II.

● Put 50 ml of the desired additive in the additives

compartment

✿✿

● Close the detergent drawer .

CHAPTER 11

CUSTOMER AWARENESS

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your

appliance.

MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE

Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by

using the recommended maximum load size.

Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half

loads.

DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?

For heavily soiled laundry only!

SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy

consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally

soiled laundry.

IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?

Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water

before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash

programme.

Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

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.

CHAPTER 12

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.

The programme carries out with the programme selector

stationary on the selected programme till cycle ends.

The washer-dryer will then complete the entire drying

programme.

The drying programme indicator will be on until the cool

down phase will begin and the indicator ( ) will go on.

At the end of the programme the indicator light “Stop” will

CHAPTER 14

CLEANING AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Do not use abrasives, spirits and/or diluents on the exterior of

the appliance. It is sufficient to use a damp cloth.

The washing machine requires very little maintenance:

● Cleaning of drawer compartments.

● Removals or long periods when the machine is left

standing.

CLEANING OF DRAWER COMPARTMENTS

Although not strictly necessary, it is advisable to clean the

detergent, bleach and additives compartments occasionally.

Remove the compartments by pulling gently.

Clean with water.

Put the compartments back into place

REMOVALS OR LONG PERIODS WHEN THE MACHINE IS LEFT

STANDING

When the machine is left standing for long periods in

unheated rooms, the drain hose should be emptied of all

remaining water.

This operation is recommended when moving the appliance

from its installation.

The appliance must be switched off and unplugged. A bowl

is needed. Detach the drainage hose from the clamp and

lower it over the bowl until all the water is removed.

Repeat the same operation with the water inlet hose.

Advisory note

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

optimize the drying performance

CHAPTER 15

FAULT

If the fault should persist, contact a Technical Assistance Centre.For prompt servicing, give the model of the

washing machine, to be found on the label placed on the cabinet inside of the porthole.

Important

1 The use of environment friendly detergents without phosphates may produce the following effects:

- The discharge rinse water may result cloudier due to the presence of zeolites in suspension. This does not

compromise the efficiency of the rinses.

- The presence of white powder (zeolites) on the washing at the end of the washing cycle. This does not

remain incorporated in the fabric and does not alter the colour.

- The presence of foam in the last rinse water which is not necessarily a sign of inadequate rinsing.

- The non-ionic surface-active agents present in the composition of washing machine detergents are often

difficult to remove from the washing itself and, even in small quantities, may produce visible signs of the

formation of foam.

- Carrying out further rinses, in cases such as this, is not useful.

Assistance Service.
