BEFORE READING THESE INSTRUCTIONS, REMOVE THE ILLUSTRATED PAGES IN THE CENTRE OF THIS DOCUMENT

This machine is only designed for domestic use and to wash, rinse, spin and, depending on the model,

dry machine-washable textiles.

In this manual, you will find the instructions

required for the safety, installation and use of

your machine and the relevant guarantees.

Please keep these and pass them on if you

sell the machine.

•

Dispose of the packaging and of your worn-

out machine (after rendering it unusable by

removing the hoses, cutting the power cable

and breaking the lock on the lid) in

accordance with the prevailing regulations.

•

For a new installation, the machine must be

connected to the water supply with a new

hose: the old hose must not be re-used.

•

Do not let children play with the machine or

the cleaning and maintenance products

(water unsuitable for drinking, ingestion of

the products, risk of physical harm, etc.).

Keep pets away from the machine.

•

Protect your property and your machine by

checking the condition of the hoses

regularly. Never use solvents, inflammable

products, explosive products or aerosols

near to or in your machine. Use the machine

in a well-ventilated, frost-free area and do

not use an extension lead or a multiple

adapter.

•

Switch off the power supply to your machine

after use.

•

If your machine should break down, call a

qualified washing machine engineer.

•

Only use your machine in accordance with

the instructions in this manual. Only use

washing and maintenance products

approved for domestic machines.

For washer-dryers:

•

Before drying, remove the detergent

dispensers placed in the drum with your

washing. Their plastic material cannot

withstand the drying temperatures.

•

Fill your machine to the maximum. You

thereby optimise your water and electricity

consumption.

•

Only programme a pre-wash when

absolutely necessary: e.g. for heavily soiled

sports or working clothes, etc.

•

A programme with no pre-wash is sufficient

for slightly or moderately soiled clothes.

•

For slightly soiled clothes, select a short

washing cycle (or an «Express» cycle,

depending on the model).

•

Gauge the amount of detergent according

to the water hardness, the degree of soiling

and the amount of washing. Always follow

the manufacturer’s instructions on the

detergent packets.

For washer-dryers:

•

If you spin at high speed, little dampness will

remain and you will therefore consume little

electricity. Even synthetic textiles can be

spun before drying.

•

Choosing your drying time well also helps to

save water and electricity.

•

Avoid wasting water and electricity by not

over-drying your laundry.

➄ Clip the plinth on again.

Setting on castors, moving

To move your machine, unclip and slide the

castor release handle from right to left.



Your machine must not still be on its

castors when in operation.

Check that it is plumb and stable to avoid

vibration during spinning.

Levelling Fig. 6 ➀ ➁

- Set your machine on its castors.

- Unscrew the two screws with a straight-

edged screwdriver.

- Level the machine by adjusting the two feet

using a flat spanner or a pair of pliers.

- Set the machine back on the floor by sliding

the castor release lever to check the

chocking.

- If the machine is correctly level, retighten the

two locking screws.

To align your machine with your units, you can

break off the fixing hooks for the hoses.

Take care not to squash the hoses!

If you cannot avoid installing the machine on a

carpeted floor, adjust the feet so as to leave a

large gap for ventilation.

Connecting to the cold water supply (Fig. 5)

Your washing machine can be connected to

any cold water pipe. Connect the supply hose

provided to a threaded 20x27 Ø tap (3/4 BSP)

not forgetting to insert the seal supplied

(depending on the model, the hose may

already be fitted with a seal).

Water pressure may vary from 10 to 100

N/cm2 (1 – 10 bars). If the pressure is high,

please provide a pressure regulator. Your

water supplier can provide the necessary

advice.

Draining away the waste water (Fig. 5)

NB: Ensure that the drain hose is tied firmly in

place with cord, etc. to avoid a possible flood.

In all cases, the height of the drain hose

bracket must be between 0.80m minimum and

1.10m maximum above the floor. The hose

must be fastened to avoid it breaking and its

opening must be above the surface of the

water being drained away.

Connecting to the electrical supply (Fig. 5)

Please refer to the «Characteristics» section.

The socket must be easily accessible but out

of children’s reach.

The installation must conform to the country’s

regulations, in particular as regards earthing

requirements and installation in shower-

rooms. The machine must be earthed.

Never use an extension lead or a multiple

adapter for connecting to the socket.

* We cannot be held responsible for any

incident caused by poor earthing of the

machine or poor electrical installation.

The machine must be switched off (in the

«Stop» position) when connecting to the

electrical supply.

Releasing your machine

Connecting your machine

Moving and levelling

Filling the products’ containers

➀

Pre-wash container (powder )

➁

Wash container (powder or liquid )



The «WASH» container may contain either

powder or liquid but liquid detergents

should not be used with programmes WITH

pre-wash.

➂

Bleach: bleach can be used as a

disinfecting or bleaching agent. Concentrated

bleach must be diluted.

➃

Softener: Concentrated softener

should be diluted with warm water.

Loading the washing products

Follow the dosage instructions on the pack.

Warning: these are generally recommended

for a full load of washing. Adapt the amounts

to suit the condition of your washing.

Too much detergent can cause foam. An

excessive amount of foam reduces your

machine’s performance and increases the

washing time and water consumption.

Do not forget to reduce the amounts when

using concentrated detergents. See the

instructions on the pack.

Reduce the product amounts by 10%

When the water is soft, when your washing is

only slightly soiled and there is only a small

amount. When the washing programme is

short.

Detergents for woollens and delicate

fabrics

Use an appropriate detergent for washing

these textiles (avoid putting the detergent

directly into the drum because some of these

products can attack the metal).



Failure to observe the following advice can

cause severe and even irremediable

damage (damage to the drum, torn

washing, etc.) and rescinds the guarantee.

Sorting your washing

•Ensure that all your washing is machine-

washable: check the labels on your washing

(type, temperature, type of cleaning, etc.).

•Ensure that your coloureds do not run.

•When washing a mixed load, use the

washing programme for the most delicate

textiles in the mix.

Checking your washing

•Empty the pockets and close any zips and

press-studs.

•Remove any curtain hooks or place your

curtains and any small items of laundry

(ribbons, handkerchiefs, etc.) in a net bag.

Button up pillowcases, etc.

•Remove any poorly attached buttons, pins

and hooks.

Access to the machine’s drum (Figs. 3 - 4)

•

Proceed as follows:

•Check that the machine is switched off.

•Open the machine’s door (FIG. 4).

•Press the button on the front flap. (FIG. 3 ➀

➁ )

Loading your washing

•For optimum washing performance, place

the previously sorted and folded washing in

the drum, distributing it evenly without

heaping it up. Mix large and small items to

obtain optimum spin-drying without

unbalancing.

•Check that no items have fallen down the

side the drum.

Closing the drum

•Close the drum using both hands, ensuring

that the button returns to the correct position.

The coloured section must be visible (Fig. 3

➂ ➃).

- If your machine is fitted with one, remove

the purge hose.

- Open the stopper at the end of the hose and

let the water flow into the container.

- Close the stopper, ensuring that it is pushed

in well and reclip it in place.

- Unscrew the stopper for the drain pump’s

filter.

- Clean the filter. To re-insert it, snap it in by

orienting the small lug on the cylindrical

surface upwards and screwing the stopper

in fully.

- Re-install the plinth in its original position.



When you next wash, check that there are

no leaks during filling.

Running maintenance

Cleaning the machine

• Only use a sponge, liquid soap and water to

clean the casing, the entry to the drum, the

control panel and the products’ box, etc.

• Never use: abrasive powders, metal or

plastic sponges, alcohol-based products,

thinners, etc.

Cleaning the products’ box

- Pull the knob forward (

Fig. 7 ➀

), and lift the

box out (

Fig. 7 ➁

- Clean everything with warm water, not

forgetting to wash the removable siphon
