53 English 2 CONNECTION TO THE WATER MAINSLEVELATION 3 LEVELLING You will find the water – input pipe inside the drum : a Connect the bent end of the pipe at the screw entrance of the electrically operated valve situa – ted at the back of the machine. b Connect the other end of the tube to the water supply. Tighten the connec – tion nut well. We recommend you have a fixed drainage exit at a distance of bet – ween 50 and 70 cm from the floor. Ensure that the drainage pipe is not too tight and that there are no folds or bottlenecks. Level the washing machine by using the adjustable feet. This will reduce the noise level and ensure that the machine will not move when in operation. max. 70 cm min. 50 cm IMPORTANT It is important that the elbow of the pipe is properly fixed at the exit so that it doesn’t fall, with the consequent risk of flooding. If your washing machine has an input for hot water, connect the tube with the red threa – ding to the hot water tap and to the electrically operated valve with the red filter. The washing machine is to be connected to the water supply network using the new supply pipes provided with the appliance. The old water supply pipes are not to be used. For correct functioning of the washing machine, the water network pressure must be bet – ween 0.05 and 1 MPa ( 0.5 – 10 Kgrf / cm2 ). a b

HOW TO USE THE MACHINE. PRACTICAL TIPS PREPARING THE LAUNDRY BEFORE A WASH WASHING MACHINE Sort your laundry according to material or make – up. We recommend you use delicate pro – grammes for delicate garments. Woollens may be washed in a special wool program – me. 1 Before putting the laundry in the drum, ensure that all the poc – kets are empty. Small objects can obstruct the motor pump for water discharge. IMPORTANTE IMPORTANT Please ensure that your woollen garments are machine washable before run – ning the wool programme .

Page: 9

59 English 2 USE OF DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES Sort your laundry according to how soiled it is. a Lightly soiled gar – ments should prefe – rably be washed in a short, cold pro – gramme. b Normally soiled garments should be washed in a pro – gramme without pre-wash .. c Heavily soiled gar – ments may be was – hed in a long pro – gramme with pre – wash. Sort your laundry accor – ding to the colours. Wash whi – tes and coloureds separately. Before you start the wash programme, intro – duce the detergent or additive in the deter – gent drawer. The detergent drawer of your washing machine has three compart – ments. IMPORTANT We remind you to load the washing machine at its maxi – mum capacity. This will save water and energy. IWe recommend that you wash garments of different sizes in the same wash programme, if possible, in order to reinforce the washing effects. This also favours the distribution of the laundry inside the drum at the spin – ning stage, which will mean the machine will work more silently. Pre-wash Compartment. Wash Compartment. Liquid Additive Compartment ( softeners, … ) IMPORTANT The liquid level should never exceed the MAX reference mark on the side of the drawer .

Page: 10

You may also use liquid detergents with this washing machine, using the optional drawer that may be acquired through the Technical Support Network. The optional drawer should be placed in the wash compart – ment. Remember that the dose of detergent to be used always depends on ● The amount of laundry to be was – hed. ● How soiled the laundry is. ● The hardness of the water ( You can request information on the water hard – ness from the com – petent local enti – ties ). Remember that there are concentrated deter – gents that are more careful with nature and the environment. Using more detergent than is needed does not improve the wash results and as well as being a waste of money, it has a negative effect on the preservation of the environment. Therefore, please follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent. ECOLOGICAL NOTE

When you do this, the spin speed light corres – ponding to the selected programme will light up. If your washing machi – ne has a display, when you select the program – me, it will light up for a few seconds, showing P + programme num – ber ( P01. P02 … ). Then it will show the approxi – mate duration of the programme in minutes. The time that appears on the display chan – ges according to the progress of the pro – gramme We recommend that you should choose the pro – gramme that is most suited to your wash, in order to avoid the pre-wash whenever possible. You will save money and help to preserve the environment. ECOLOGICAL NOTE display 1. If your washing machine is a fully inte – grated Model, instead of pressing the pro – gramme selector con – trol, you have to press the button in the middle of the control panel, shown in the photo .

The wash options should always be chosen after choo – sing the wash programme. Any change of programme during the selection annuls the previously selected options. Once ON has been activated ( programme selector control out or the button in the middle in the fully integrated Model ), select the options you want. When you select your options, the corres – ponding light will light up beside the selection button. Button : Spin Speed Selection The selected program – me has a number of spin revolutions asso – ciated, which may be viewed in the upper pilots. If necessary, you may change the spin revo – lutions, eliminate the spin and the flot or no – creases option. To do so, press the spin speed selection button once or more often until the desired option lights up. The options are as follows : Opción : flot / antiarrugas This option stops at the last rinse and the water is left in the laundry. When the function is deactivated, the washing machine con – tinues the programme, draining the water and spinning. This option is used, for example, when you are not at home and wish to delay the spin until you arrive, in order to avoid creases in the laundry after the spin and the time lapsed before the clothes are removed from the drum. Option : No spin This option allows you to run a programme without the final spin. This is used to avoid the formation of creases when washing special materials. 4 SELECTING ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS Flot / no creases No spin Spin Speed Selection Spin Revolutions

Button : Extra Rinse This option increases the degree of final rinse obtained in the laundry ; it is recommended for large loads and gar – ments belonging to peo – ple with sensitive skin. This option increases water consumption ! Button : Intensive wash : This option, especially recommended for hea – vily soiled and stained garments, provides better results when the normal wash cycle is extended. Button : Easy iron This option avoids the formation of creases in clothes by running a special programme with several special spins to separate the clothes after the spin and ease the task of ironing them afterwards. 65 Easy iron Extra – Rinse Intensive wash Button : Delay selector On models with a time display, a delay of up to 24 hours can be selected.

In the sự kiện of a power cut, when the supply returns, the washing machine will continue to function normally, starting off where it had stopped ( it has an hour memory ). The same occurs if your press the OFF button and then the ON button. 7 POWER CUTS 8 TIPS ● In order to reduce the noise produ – ced during the spin cycle, level the washing machine using the adjusta – ble feet. ● Try to wash gar – ments of different sizes in the same wash programme. this improves the distribution of the clothes in the drum during the spin cycle. ● All models have a spin safety system that does not allow the machine to per – form the spin cycle if the distribution of the laundry in the drum is very con – centrated. this means the machine does not vibrate too much. If at any moment you notice that the laundry is not fully rinsed when you take it out, try to spin again after dis – tributing the clothes more evenly in the drum. With the aim of preserving the environment, your washing machine is equipped with a system that is able to adapt to the different conditions of use ( laundry load and type of material ), thereby ensu – ring an optimum level of water and energy. This means that during the wash process, alt – hough the amount of water you can see through the porthole door may seem low, there is no need to worry. The wash and rinse will be highly efficient. ECOLOGICAL NOTE

Page: 19

69 English MAINTAINING AND CLEANING THE MACHINE After each wash, leave the porthole door open for a while to let the air circulate freely inside the machine. Depending on the hardness of the water, we recommend running a complete wash cycle using a decalcifying product. This will pro – long the life of your washing machine. WASHING MACHINE You should clean the detergent drawer whe – never you notice resi – dues of any product inside it. a Fully extract the detergent drawer by pulling out the flap. b Clean the compartments in the drawer. Use warm water and a brush. c Also, clean the sip – hons in the additive drawer. Replace the drawer in the washing machine. 1 CLEANING THE DETERGENT DRAWER Before any cleaning or maintenance opera – tions, we recommend you disconnect the washing machine from the electricity mains. IMPORTANT

Page: 20

Clean the accessible filter whenever the drainage pump is blocked by foreign bodies. a Loosen the base by gently pulling on the sides and turning down – wards. Then undo the fasteners. If there is no side access, introduce a small screwdriver in the three slots on the upper part of the base, in order to lever it and loosen the hooks. b Use a plate or other container under the filter to collect the water that will be relea – sed when it is loo – sened. c Turn the filter a quarter – or half – way sideways towards the left. Water will start to come out. d When you are finis – hed taking the water out of the washing machine, turn the filter around several times until you can take it out fully. e Remove any objects or fluff that may be in the filter. f Replace the filter and the base in their places. 2 CLEANING THE ACCESSIBLE FILTER In order to avoid burns, this operation should not be carried out when the wash water tempe – rature is over 30 ºC.

SUPPORT SERVICE
• Why doesn’t the washing machine start working?
Perhaps
– There is no voltage in the electricity mains.
– The fuses of the electrical fittings are blown.
– The washing machine is not connected to the electri-
city mains.
– You didn’t press the on/off button(this button’s light
should be on)
– The programme selector dial is not out.
– The door of the washing machine isn’t closed properly.
When this is detected, the displays that show “pre-
wash” or “end” flash and F04 appears on the display
of the washing machine. Then you should check if the
door is open and close it properly.
• Why does the washing machine vibrate or make too much noise?
Perhaps:
– The internal fastening screws were not removed.
– The washing machine is not level.
Please do not open the
machine under any
circumstances.There is
no fuse or similar com-
ponent inside that may
be replaced by the user.

SAFETY AND TROUBLESHOOTING
WASHING MACHINE

Page: 23

• Why doesn’t the washing machine fill with water ? – When this fault is detected, the Wash and Rinse dis – plays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F01. – This water input fault could be due to an interrup – tion in the water supply, water input tap or because the water input filter on the washing machine is blocked. – Therefore, you should take the following steps : wait until the water supply starts again, open the water input tap or loosen the water input pipe and clean its filter. • Why doesn’t the washing machine drain or spin ? – When this fault is detected, the Rinse and End dis – plays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F02. – Possible reasons for this fault may be : obstruction in the drain motor pump in the washing machine, obs – truction in the drainage piping of the building or inco – rrect electrical connection of the motor pump. – Action : if the reason for the fault is an obstruction in the motor-pump, follow the steps in section 2. Maintaining and cleaning the machine. • Why doesn’t the washing machine spin the clothes ? – When this fault is detected, the Pre-wash and Wash displays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F03. – This fault occurs because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum, which can cause too much vibration. – Solution : return to the spin stage. . • Is it better to put the detergent in the drawer or directly in the drum ? The use of “ detergent tablets ” that go directly into the drum is increasingly common. Thes e tablets wash well and do not damage the laundry. However, other powder and liquid detergents contain aggressive components that may damage clothes if applied directly to the gar – ments. In this case, we recommend you use the drawer 73 English

Page: 24

• Why can’t I see water in the drum ? This could be because the washing machine has a sys – tem that allows it to adapt to the laundry load and the type of material, adjusting the water level and the energy used with a view to preserving the environment. This means that during the wash process, although the amount of water you can see through the porthole door may seem low, there is no need to worry. The wash and rinse will be highly efficient. • Why is water coming out of the drawer ? Perhaps the drawer or dispenser needs cleaning. This simple operation is described in Maintaining and clea – ning the machine. 1 – Cleaning the detergent drawer. • Why can’t I open the porthole door immediately after the wash ends ? Modern washing machines are equipped with safety sys – tems to protect users. One of these is that it is not possible to open the washing machine until the drum has come to a complete halt. That is why it takes about 2 minutes before you can open the porthole door. • Other faults – The washing machine is able to detect other faults. When this happens, all the displays for the various wash stages will flash or different errors will appear on the display, F05, F06 ……, F10. – Thes e faults may be due to very diverse causes. – Solution : call the OFFICIAL TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICE
