Safety instructions
This machine is designed solely for domestic use, for washing, rinsing and spinning
machine-washable textiles.
You must comply with the following instructions. We will refuse any liability and
rescind the guarantee if these recommendations are not observed, which can cause
damage to equipment or physical injury.
• To avoid damaging your machine and
your washing, your machine must only
be used for the purpose for which it has
been designed. Only use washing and
maintenance products certified as being
for use in domestic washing machines.
• If you treat your washing with stain
removers, solvents and, in general, any
inflammable or potentially explosive
product, do not put them into the
machine immediately (see the section
on "TREATING STUBBORN STAINS").
Furthermore, you are strongly
recommended not to use solvents or
products in an aerosol can near to your
machine or, any electrical appliance in
general, in a poorly ventilated room (risk
of fire and explosion).
• If an incident should occur, which you
cannot resolve using the remedies
we recommend (see the section on
"INCIDENTS THAT MAY ARISE"), call a
professional service engineer.
•When making a new installation, the
machine must be connected to the water
supply with a new hose. The old hose
must not be re-used. Check the water
and drain hoses regularly: this will help
you avoid water damage.
•Do not allow children to play with the
machine and keep pets away from it.
•Worn-out machines must immediately be
rendered unusable. Unplug the power
cable and cut it off next to the machine.
Shut off the water supply and remove
the hose. Break the lock on the machine's
door.
The environment and tips on saving energy
• Programme a pre-wash only when it is
absolutely necessary: e.g. for sportswear
or very dirty working clothes, etc.
• If your washing is only slightly or
moderately dirty, a low temperature
programme is quite enough to provide
you with a perfect result.
• For only slightly dirty washing, select a
short washing cycle ("Rapid", "Express" or
"FLASH", depending on the model).
• Use an amount of detergent to suit the
hardness of the water, the quantity of
washing and how dirty it is. Always
follow the instructions on the detergent
pack.
• Both the packaging and the component
parts of your machine use recyclable
materials. Please bear this in mind when
disposing of them.
Please contact your dealer or the
technical Services Department in your
town regarding how to dispose of them
appropriately, in an environmentally
friendly manner.

Removing the transport clamps from your machine
YOU MUST PERFORM THE OPERATIONS DESCRIBED BELOW BEFORE
USING THE MACHINE
These operations consist of removing all the elements designed to immobilize your
machine's internal components while it is being transported. These so-called "releasing"
operations are required for your machine to operate properly and to comply with the
prevailing safety standards. If you do not perform these operations completely, this can
cause severe damage to your machine while it is operating.
1. Remove the transport clamps before you
start your machine. These are the screws
marked “C” (Figure1).
2. Use a spanner to unscrew the“C” screws
anti-clockwise (Fig. 2) until you can
remove them by hand.
3. Finish removing the “C” screws and their
rubber seals by pulling them towards you
(Fig. 3)
To facilitate this operation, pour a drop
of washing-up liquid on the screws and
release them a little at a time, working
from top to bottom.
4. You must block up the holes left by the
"C" screws with the covers provided (in
the accessories bag).
Your machine was scrupulously checked
before it left the factory: you may
therefore notice the presence of a small
amount of water in the drum or in the
products' box.
We advise you to keep all the clamping
components because these must be
re- inserted if you subsequently have to
transport your machine.
7
Your machine's surroundings:
If you are installing your machine next
to another appliance or a unit, we
recommend that you always leave a
gap between them to help the air to
circulate. On the other hand, we would
strongly advise you NOT:
- To install your machine in a damp,
poorly ventilated room.
- To install your machine in a location
where it could be splashed with water.
- To install your machine on a carpeted
floor.
If you cannot avoid this, take every
precaution against obstructing the
air flow to the base of the machine
to ensure good ventilation for the
machine's internal components.
Levelling:
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 1.5cm over the depth of the
machine.
Adjusting the feet:
To ensure that your machine operates
safely and quietly, its feet must be fitted.
Your machine is supplied with four
adjustable feet. If your machine is unstable,
- Unscrew the white plastic lock nut,
- Screw or unscrew the adjustable feet until
your machine is perfectly balanced,
- Once the feet have been set, tighten the
bolt to retain your setting.
Preparing to install your machine
Installation under a worktop
If you wish to install your washing machine
under a worktop, you must remove the top
of the machine (Fig. 5)
Ensure that your machine is not
connected to the electricity supply.
Unscrew and remove the two screws
holding the top at the back of the machine
Pull the top gently towards you to release it
and then lift and remove it.
8
Connecting your machine
Connecting to the cold water
supply
Connect the water hose (Fig. 6)
- By screwing the elbowed end to the
connection on the back of the machine
- By screwing the other end to a tap
fitted with a threaded end piece diameter
20x27 (3/4 BSP).
If you use a self-piecing tap, the useful
opening must be at least 6mm in diameter.
To avoid any water leaks, remember to fit
the rubber seals in each end and tighten
your connections correctly. The seals are
provided in the accessories bag.
Water supply:
- Minimum water pressure: 0.1 MPa or 1
bar
- Maximum water pressure: 1 MPa or 10
bars
9
Connecting to the drain
Connect the drain hose (Fig. 7)
• Either, temporarily, to a sink or a bath tub
• Or, permanently, to a ventilated U
bend. If your installation does not have
a ventilated U bend, ensure that the
connection is not airtight. In fact, to avoid
any flowback of the waste water into the
machine, you are strongly recommended
to leave an air gap between the drain hose
and the waste pipe.
The hose must not be twisted or kinked
and must be held by the hose hook to
avoid it falling to the ground (Fig. 8)
The hose hook must be placed 40 to
100 cm above the base of the machine.
Ensure that it is tied firmly in place to
avoid it coming loose during draining
and causing a flood.
Electricity supply
For your safety, you must comply with
the instructions below.
The electrical installation must comply
with Standard NF C 15-100, particularly
as regards the Earthing requirements. Line
3x2.5 mm2 single-phase 230V connected
to :
- A single-phase 20A 230V-50Hz meter
- A differential circuit breaker and a
separate fuse (10 or 16A, depending on the
model)
- A 2-pin + Earth 10/16A socket
We cannot be held responsible for any
accident caused by improper electrical
installation.
Advice on the electrical installation of your
machine:
• Do not use an extension lead, an adapter
or a multiple-outlet socket.
• Never remove the Earth.
• The socket must be easily accessible but
out of the reach of children.
If in any doubt at all, please contact your
installer.
Your machine complies with
European Directives EEC/73/23 (Low
Voltage Directive) and EEC/89/336
(Electromagnetic Compatibility) as
modified by Directive EEC/93/68.

Preparing your washing
Sorting your washing
Please refer to the table on the preceding page for sorting your washing and selecting
a suitable programme for the labels. Whenever you are washing a mixed load, use the
programme for the most delicate fabric. When washing new textiles, as a precaution, first
check that the textile does not run: see "Colour test" below.
Colour test
When being washed for the first time,
coloured textiles frequently run unless
guaranteed to be colourfast. Before
starting the machine, perform the
following test :
- Select an invisible part of the textile
- Dampen it with warm water
- Then press it against a white cloth
• If the textile does not run, you can
machine-wash it normally
• If the textile runs, machine-wash it
separately of by hand.

Checking your washing
12
Treating stubborn stains
Stains caused by sweat, blood, fruit, wine or chocolate generally disappear when using
biological detergents but some stains require specific treatment before being place din the
machine. Perform a test first of all on a scarcely visible part of the textile and rinse thoroughly.
If you use a stain remover, always start at the outside of the stain to avoid any rings.
GRASS: dab the stain with white vinegar or
90° proof alcohol* (if this is suitable for the
textile) and then rinse and wash
BALLPOINT / FELT TIP PEN: remove as much
of the ink as possible by dabbing the stain
with absorbent paper. Place a clean white
cloth under the stain and dab the stain with
another cloth soaked in white vinegar for
synthetic and artificial fibres or 90° proof
alcohol* for other fibres (if this is suitable for
the textile)
RUST: for slight stains, cover with salt,
squeeze lemon juice over the salt and leave
overnight: then rinse thoroughly and wash.
For heavier stains,use an anti-rust product,
carefully following the manufacturer's
instructions.
CHEWING GUM: chill it using an ice cube. As
soon as it is hard enough, scrape it off with
your fingernail. Remove any remaining ring
with a degreasing product* OIL - TAR: use
liquid stain remover* or, failing this, spread
a little fresh butter on the stain, leave it for a
while and then dab with turpentine*.
PAINT: do not leave paint stains to dry. Treat
them immediately with the solvent indicated
on the paint tin (water, turpentine*, white
spirit*). Soap and then rinse.
CANDLEWAX: remove as much of the stain
as possible by scratching it. Then place
absorbent paper on both sides of the textile
and iron the stain to melt the rest of the wax.
MAKE-UP: place the stained surface of the
fabric on absorbent paper, then dampen the
reverse of the fabric with 90° proof alcohol*
(if this is suitable for the textile) and provided
that the stain is not greasy. Otherwise, opt
for a de-greasing product (trichlorethylene*
type).
COFFEE - TEA: On white cotton: dab the
stain with oxygenated water* before washing
normally - On coloured cotton: dab the
stain with a watervinegar solution (2 soup
spoons of white vinegar to 1/4 litre of water)
before washing normally - On woollen: dab
the stain with a mixture of equal parts of
alcohol* and white vinegar before washing
the item
CHOCOLATE - FRUIT - FRUIT JUICE - WINE:
dab the stain with a water vinegar solution
(2 soup spoons of white vinegar to ®˘ litre of
water). Rinse well and wash normally.
GREASE: sprinkle the textile immediately
with talc. Leave to dry and brush gently
to remove the talc. Then dab with a de-
greasing product of the mineral oil* type.
Rinse and wash normally.
BLOOD: soak the stained item as quickly as
possible in cold salty water, then proceed to
wash normally.
KETCHUP - TOMATO SAUCE: prepare a
solution of one part glycerene to one part
warm water. Soak the item for an hour; then
proceed to wash normally.
USING STAIN-REMOVING PRODUCTS:
To avoid any risk of fire or explosion:
(*) If you are using the products recommended in the remedies above, take care to rinse
your washing thoroughly before placing it in the machine.
- If you are using commercial stain removers, follow the manufacturer's instructions
very carefully.
We would remind you that, generally, stains treated immediately can be easily removed.
On the other hand, old stains that have been ironed or tumble-dried cannot be removed.
13
Loading your washing
Proceed as follows:
Open the machine
• To access the drum, pres the "Door" button
located just above the door.
Insert your washing
For optimum washing performance, sort
and fold your washing and then place it the
drum, distributing it evenly, without piling
it up. Mix large and small items together for
optimum spinning.
Close the machine
• Check that no item is caught in the door
when you close it.
• Close the door by pressing it gently.
• Ensure that the door is locked. If it is not, a
safety system will prevent you from starting
your machine.
For your safety, the door is locked
throughout the washing cycle.
Loading the washing products
Dispensing the detergent
The amount of detergent to use depends on
the water hardness, how dirty the washing is
and how much washing there is. Please refer
to the dosage instructions on the detergent
pack.
Warning: The detergent manufacturers'
recommendations are generally based on
filing the drum to the maximum. Adapt
the dosage appropriately for the weight of
washing you are inserting in the machine.
These recommendations will avoid too high
a dose of detergent, which can cause foam.
Too much foam can reduce your machine's
performance and increase the washing time
and the water consumption.
Detergents for woollens and delicate textiles.
Detergents for woollens and delicate textiles.
You are recommended to sue an appropriate
detergent to wash these types of textiles
(avoid putting such detergents directly into
the drum because some of these products
can attack the metal.
