HOW TO OPERATE THE MACHINE The very first time that the machine is used you should run a wash programme with no load in the drum, to clear any residues which may have been left by the manufacturing process. Pour approx. 100 ml of detergent straight into the drum and run programme G, 40°. When the programme has ended the machine will be ready for use. 1 Loading the machine Pull the door latch gently to open the door. Put the items to be washed inside the drum. Large and small items can be mixed.
GENERAL WASHING INFORMATION DETERGENT AND FABRIC CONDITIONER Liquid detergent The type and the quantity of detergent you use both have an impact on the results you achieve with your washing machine. Using too much detergent is unnecessary and increases overall impact on the environment quite needlessly. Even biodegradable detergents contain substances which can disturb the balance of the environment. Use only good-quality detergents which are intended for use in automatic washing machines.

MAINTENANCE The cabinet Clean the outside surfaces of the machine using a mild (non-abrasive) household cleaning product. Finish by removing remaining traces of the product with a damp cloth. 1 Do not use cleaning products which contain alcohol (spirits), thinners and similar substances. THE DETERGENT DISPENSER In time, residues of detergent and fabric conditioner are likely to build up inside the detergent dispenser. It should be cleaned at regular intervals by flushing it out with water.
MAINTENANCE Cleaning inside the machine If you mostly use your machine for low-temperature washes, and/or if you use only very little detergent, you should clean the inside of the machine about once a month. This will prevent mould or stale odours from developing. Use the full recommended quantity of detergent and run a wash programme at the highest temperature with no wash load in the machine.
IF THE MACHINE IS NOT WORKING ❏ CHECK: ■ PROBLEM? ■ The machine will not start. ❏ Have you pressed the ON/OFF button? ❏ Is the electrical plug plugged in and switched on? ❏ Check circuit-breakers/fuses (start with fuse in electrical plug). ❏ Is the door closed properly? ❏ Have you set the programme control knob properly? ❏ Is the machine's water tap turned on? ■ The machine is not filling with water.

INSTALLATION Levelling the machine 1 The machine must be installed on a sound and firm surface, and must not be touching walls or furniture. Adjust the feet to level the machine. Make sure the machine is standing on all four feet. After levelling the machine, secure the feet by tightening the ring nuts (Fig. 1). Some vibration is normal and unavoidable when the machine is spinning the load, particularly if the floor is not a concrete one.
INSTALLATION Water discharge 1 These three alternatives are possible for the discharge hose: Over the top edge of a washtub: Use this option only if you can be sure that the hose will not move when the machine is emptying. The hose can be fixed to the wall on a hook or tied to a tap with string (Fig. 1). Directly into a waste pipe with a trap: The discharge pipe can be connected directly into the pipe (e.g. one beneath a washtub or kitchen sink), above the water trap.
