Installation
! This instruction manual should be kept in a safe place for
future reference. If the washing machine is sold, transferred
or moved, make sure that the instruction manual remains
with the machine so that the new owner is able to
familiarise himself/herself with its operation and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital
information relating to the safe installation and operation of
the appliance.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.
2. Make sure that the washing machine has not been
damaged during the transportation process. If it has been
damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any
further with the installation process.
3. Remove the 4 protective
screws (used during
transportation) and the
rubber washer with the
corresponding spacer,
located on the rear part of
the appliance (see figure).
4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need them
again if the washing machine needs to be moved to
another location.
! Packaging materials should not be used as toys for
children.
Levelling
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without
resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets or anything
else.
2. If the floor is not perfectly
level, compensate for any
unevenness by tightening or
loosening the adjustable front
feet (see figure); the angle
of inclination, measured in
relation to the worktop, must
not exceed 2°.
Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with stability,
help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise and prevent it
from shifting while it is operating. If it is placed on carpet or
a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient
ventilation space underneath the washing machine.
Connecting the electricity and water
supplies
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the inlet hose
by screwing it to a cold
water tap using a 3/4 gas
threaded connection (see
figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until it is
perfectly clear.
2. Connect the inlet hose
to the washing machine
by screwing it onto the
corresponding water inlet
of the appliance, which is
situated on the top right-
hand side of the rear part of
the appliance (see figure).
3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.
! The water pressure at the tap must fall within the range
of values indicated in the Technical data table (see next
page).
! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialised
shop or an authorised technician.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
! Use the ones supplied with the machine.

3. MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT. Pull out the
detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into
the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents
and laundry”.
4. CLOSE THE DOOR.
5. SELECT THE WASH CYCLE. Use the WASH CYCLE
SELECTOR knob to select the desired wash cycle. A
temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle;
these values may be adjusted. The duration of the cycle
will appear on the display.
6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant
buttons:
Modify the temperature and/or spin
speed. The machine automatically displays the
maximum temperature and spin speed values set for
the selected cycle, or the most recently-used settings
if they are compatible with the selected cycle. The
temperature can be decreased by pressing the
button, until the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached.
The spin speed may be progressively reduced by
pressing the button, until it is completely excluded

Option makes it possible to optimise washing based
on the level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash
cycle intensity.
Select the wash programme: the cycle will be
automatically set to “Normal” as optimised for garments
with an average level of soil (this setting is not applicable
to the “Wool” cycle, which is automatically set to
“Delicate”).
For heavily-soiled garments press button until
the “Intensive” level is reached. This level ensures
a high-performance wash due to a larger quantity of
water used in the initial phase of the cycle and due to
increased drum rotation. It is useful when removing the
most stubborn stains.
It can be used with or without bleach. If you desire
bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (4) into
compartment 1. When pouring in the bleach, be careful
not to exceed the “max” level marked on the central
pivot (see figure pag. 10).

Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
Successful washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not
necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in
fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and
contribute to environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.
Open the detergent
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that extra
compartment 4 has been removed.
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used, it is recommended that the
removable plastic partition A (supplied) be used for proper
dosage.
If powder detergent is used, place the partition into slot B.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
extra compartment 4: Bleach
Preparing the laundry
• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the values listed in the “Table of wash
cycles”, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles
Anti Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class
that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of
different colours. We recommend the use of powder
detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is
recommended if there are obstinate stains.

Whites: use this cycle 2 to wash white clothes. The
programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white
clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results.
Anti allergy: use programme 7 to remove major allergens
such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.
Steam Refresh: this programme refreshes garments by
removing bad odours and relaxing the fibres (2 kg, roughly
3 items). Insert dry items only (that are not dirty) and select
programme 8. The garments will be damp once the cycle
is completed, so we recommend hanging them to dry. The
8 programme makes ironing easier.
! Not recommended for wool or silk garments.
! Do not add softeners or detergents.
! The indicator light for the “ ” option will switch on when
this cycle is selected.
Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Ariston machine has
been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company
for washing wool garments labelled as hand washable
provided that the garments are washed according to the
instructions on the garment label and those issued by the
manufacturer of this washing machine. Ariston is the first
washing machine brand to be approved by The Woolmark
Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its washing
performance and consumption of energy and water.
(M1135)
In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade
mark is a Certification trade mark.
Delicates: use programme 10 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 10
and set the “Delicate” level from option .
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
Eco cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating
the need of heating water and it’s an advantage
both to your energy bill and the environment! These
innovative Eco programmes (
12
Cottons,
13
Synthetics
and
14
Fast Wash) are available for various fabrics
and different quantity of garment; they have been
designed to guarantee a high cleaning action even at
low temperature and can be used for lightly to medium
soiled loads. Eco Cycles give the best results thanks
to an intensified wash action, water optimization and
are carried out in the same average time of a standard
cycle. For the best washing results with Eco Cycles we
recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

Precautions and tips
! This washing machine was designed and constructed
in accordance with international safety regulations. The
following information is provided for safety reasons and
must therefore be read carefully.
General safety
• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or
damp hands or feet.
• Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging
the appliance from the electricity socket. Hold the plug
and pull.
• Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while the
machine is in operation.
• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach
extremely high temperatures.
• Never force the porthole door. This could damage the safety
lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening.
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances access the internal mechanisms in an
attempt to repair it yourself.
• Always keep children well away from the appliance while
it is operating.
• The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.
• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group of two
or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never
try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy.
• Before loading laundry into the washing machine, make
sure the drum is empty.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is
excessively unbalanced, the washing machine performs
the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
Disposal
• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local
regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household
electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the
normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances
Opening the porthole door manually
In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole
door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the
laundry, proceed as follows:
1. remove the plug from the
electrical socket.
2. make sure the water level
inside the machine is lower
than the door opening; if
it is not, remove excess
water using the drain hose,
collecting it in a bucket as
indicated in the figure.
3. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover panel on
the lower front part of the
washing machine (see figure).
4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure,

Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This will limit
wear on the hydraulic system inside the washing machine
and help to prevent leaks.
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and
during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing machine
• The outer parts and rubber components of the
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in
lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
• The washing machine has a “Auto Clean” programme
for its internal parts that must be run with no load in the
drum.
To help the wash cycle you may want to use either the
detergent (i.e. a quantity 10% the quantity specified for
lightly-soiled garments) or special additives to clean the
washing machine. We recommend running a cleaning
programme every 40 wash cycles.
To start the programme press buttons A and B
simultaneously for 5 seconds (see figure).
The programme will start automatically and will run for
about 80 minutes. To stop the cycle press the START/
PAUSE button.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer
Remove the dispenser by
raising it and pulling it out
(see figure).
Wash it under running
water; this operation should
be repeated frequently.
Caring for the door and drum of your
appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent
unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump
which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes,
small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-
chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom
part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the
appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover panel
on the lower front part of
the washing machine (see
figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwise
(see figure): a little water
may trickle out. This is
perfectly normal;
3. clean the inside thoroughly;
4. screw the lid back on;
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely
in place before you push it onto the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any
cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash
cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose
could easily split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.

Troubleshooting
Your washing machine could occasionally fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Service (see “ Service”),
make sure that the problem cannot be solved easily using the following list.
Problem:
The washing machine does not
switch on.
The wash cycle does not start.
The washing machine does not fill
with water (the text “H2O” flashes
on the display).
The washing machine continuously
takes in and drains water.
The washing machine does not
drain or spin.
The washing machine vibrates a
lot during the spin cycle.
The washing machine leaks.
The “option” and START/PAUSE
indicator lights flash rapidly and an
error code appears on the display (e.g.:
F-01, F-..).
There is too much foam.
Possible causes / Solutions:
• The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or not enough to make
contact.
• There is no power in the house.
• The washing machine door is not closed properly.
• The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.
• The water tap has not been opened.
• A delayed start has been set.
• The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.
• The hose is bent.
• The water tap has not been opened.
• There is no water supply in the house.
• The pressure is too low.
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.
• The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor
(see “Installation”).
• The free end of the hose is under water (see “Installation”).
• The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.
If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the
appliance off and contact the Technical Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one
of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage,
causing the washing machine to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti-
draining valves are available in shops and help to prevent this inconvenience.
• The wash cycle does not include draining: some cycles require the draining
process to be enabled manually.
• The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”).
• The drainage duct is clogged.
• The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see “Installation”).
• The washing machine is not level (see “Installation”).
• The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see “Installation”).
• The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see “Installation”).
• The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see “Care
and maintenance”).
• The drain hose is not fixed properly (see “Installation”).
• Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and then
switch it back on again.
If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.
• The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text “for
washing machines” or “hand and machine wash”, or the like).
• Too much detergent was used.

Service
Before contacting the Technical Assistance Service:
• Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see “Troubleshooting”);
• Restart the wash cycle to check whether the problem has been solved;
• If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre.
! Always request the assistance of authorised technicians.
Have the following information to hand:
• the type of problem;
• the appliance model (Mod.);
• the serial number (S/N).
This information can be found on the data plate applied to the rear of the washing machine, and can also be found on the
front of the appliance by opening the door.

FR
Installation
! Conserver ce mode d’emploi pour pouvoir le consulter
à tout moment. En cas de vente, de cession ou de
déménagement, veiller à ce qu’il suive toujours le lave-
linge pour que son nouveau propriétaire soit informé sur
son mode de optionnement et puisse profiter des conseils
correspondants.
! Lire attentivement les instructions: elles fournissent
des conseils importants sur l’installation, l’utilisation et la
sécurité de l’appareil.
Déballage et mise à niveau
Déballage
1. Déballer le lave-linge.
2. Contrôler que le lave-linge n’a pas été endommagé
pendant le transport. S’il est abîmé, ne pas le raccorder et
contacter le vendeur.
3. Enlever les 4 vis de
protection servant au
transport, le caoutchouc
et la cale, placés dans la
partie arrière (voir figure).
4. Boucher les trous à l’aide des bouchons plastique
fournis.
5. Conserver toutes ces pièces: il faudra les remonter en
cas de transport du lave-linge.
! Les pièces d’emballage ne sont pas des jouets pour
enfants.
Mise à niveau
1. Installer le lave-linge sur un sol plat et rigide, sans
l’appuyer contre des murs, des meubles ou autre.
2. Si le sol n’est pas
parfaitement horizontal,
visser ou dévisser les pieds
de réglage avant (voir figure)
pour niveler l’appareil; son
angle d’inclinaison, mesuré
sur le plan de travail, ne doit
pas dépasser 2°.
Une bonne mise à niveau garantit la stabilité de
l’appareil et évite qu’il y ait des vibrations, du bruit et des
déplacements en cours de optionnement. Si la machine
est posée sur de la moquette ou un tapis, régler les pieds
de manière à ce qu’il y ait suffisamment d’espace pour
assurer une bonne ventilation.
Raccordements eau et électricité
Raccordement du tuyau d’arrivée de l’eau
1. Reliez le tuyau
d’alimentation en le vissant
à un robinet d’eau froide à
embout fileté 3/4 gaz (voir
figure).
Faire couler l’eau jusqu’à
ce qu’elle soit limpide et
sans impuretés avant de
raccorder.
2. Raccorder le tuyau
d’arrivée de l’eau au lave-
linge en le vissant à la prise
d’eau prévue, dans la partie
arrière en haut à droite (voir
figure).
3. Attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit pas plié ou écrasé.
! La pression de l’eau doit être comprise entre les valeurs
indiquées dans le tableau des Caractéristiques techniques
(voir page ci-contre).
! Si la longueur du tuyau d’alimentation ne suffit pas,
s’adresser à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien
agréé.
! N’utiliser que des tuyaux neufs.
! Utiliser ceux qui sont fournis avec l’appareil.
FR

65 - 100 cm
Raccordement du tuyau de vidange
Raccorder le tuyau
d’évacuation, sans le plier,
à un conduit d’évacuation
ou à une évacuation murale
placés à une distance du
sol comprise entre 65 et
100 cm;
ou bien l’accrocher à un
évier ou à une baignoire,
dans ce cas, fixer le
support en plastique fourni
avec l’appareil au robinet
(voir figure). L’extrémité
libre du tuyau d’évacuation
ne doit pas être plongée
dans l’eau.
! L’utilisation d’un tuyau de rallonge est absolument
déconseillée mais si on ne peut faire autrement, il faut
absolument qu’il ait le même diamètre que le tuyau original
et sa longueur ne doit pas dépasser 150 cm.
