• Only use the hose-sets supplied with the appliance for the water supply connection (do not reuse old hose-sets).
• Water pressure must be between 0.05 MPa and 0.8 MPa.
• Make sure carpets or rugs do not obstruct the base or any of the ventilation openings.

Safety instructions

• Before cleaning or maintaining the washing machine, unplug the appliance and turn off the water tap.
• Make sure the electrical system is earthed. Otherwise, seek qualified professional assistance.
• Please do not use converters, multiple sockets, or extension cords.
• Make sure there is no water in the drum before opening the door.
• Do not pull on the power cord or appliance to unplug the machine.
• Do not expose the washing machine to rain, direct sunlight, or other weather elements. Protect from possible freezing.

INSTALLATION

• Release the power cord and drain hose from the securing clip at the rear of the machine.
• Remove the 2 or 4 transportation screws (A) on the back and remove the 2 or 4 flat washers, rubber bungs, and plastic spacer tubes (B) as illustrated in Figure 1.
• If the washing machine is built-in, unscrew the 3 or 4 transportation screws (A) and remove the 3 or 4 flat washers, rubber bungs, and plastic spacer tubes (B).
• During the removal of the screws, occasionally, spacer tubes fall inside the product. These can be removed by tilting the product forward and recovering them from the floor or inside the base of the machine.
• Cover the open transportation screw holes with the 2 or 4 plastic caps included in the instruction bag.

WARNING: Keep packaging materials away from children.

Place the corrugated plastic sheet, found on top of the appliance during the unpacking process, into the base of the appliance as shown in Figure 2 (according to the model, consider version A, B, or C).

Instructions for mounting the furniture door

• Position the template onto the reverse of the furniture door. It is possible to mount the hinges and closure magnet on the right or left-hand side, depending on your requirements. Mark the screw hole positions, then drill out these positions.
• Fix the hinges in place with the 4 screws provided (A).
• Fix the magnet (B) in place using the screw (C).
• Mount the plate (D) on the right or left-hand side, depending on your installation requirements. Place the plastic support (E) under the plate and fix it in position with the screw (F).
• Snap mount cap (G) in the lower position.
• Mount the furniture door to the front of the washer using the hinges. Place the spacers under the hinges (I) and then fix them in position with the screw (H).

We suggest mounting the furniture door so that it opens towards the left, which is the same direction as the porthole door. This will leave more space when you are loading washing into the appliance.

• Slide the washer into an opening of the size indicated in the diagram opposite. A furniture plinth may be run across the front of the appliance, but its height will be dictated by the height the washer is set.
• The 4 adjustable feet allow the height of the washer to be adjusted from 820 mm to a maximum of 840 mm. To adjust the height, you should remove the nuts fitted to each foot and replace them with the 5 mm nuts supplied. Raise the feet to your desired height and then fully tighten the lock nut to the base of the washer.

Hydraulic connections

• Connect the water hose to the water supply tap (fig. 3) only using the hose supplied with the appliance (do not reuse old hose-sets).
• Some models may include one or more of the following features:

HOT&COLD (fig. 4):

Water mains connection settings with hot and cold water for higher energy savings. Connect the grey tube to the cold water tap and the red one to the hot water tap. The machine can be connected to the cold water tap only: in this case, some programs may start a few minutes later.

AQUASTOP (fig. 5):

A device located on the supply tube that stops water flow if the tube deteriorates; in this case, a red mark will appear in the window “A” and the tube must be replaced. To unscrew the nut, press the one-way lock device “B”.

AQUAPROTECT – SUPPLY TUBE WITH GUARD (fig. 6):

Should water leak from the primary internal tube “A”, the transparent containment sheath “B” will contain water to permit the washing cycle to complete. At the end of the cycle, contact the Customer Service Centre to replace the supply tube.

Setting

The washing machine should be installed in its final position such that the water fill hose is not kinked or trapped. The corrugated drain hose should be inserted into a suitable drain pipe of between 50 cm and 85 cm height above the floor using the curved drain hose support. If an under-sink connection is used, the drain hose must be routed above the sink overfill opening to prevent back siphoning. Care must be taken to avoid kinking or trapping the drain hose (fig. 7).

• Level the appliance using the feet as illustrated in Figure 8:

1. Turn the nut clockwise to release the screw;
2. Rotate the foot to raise or lower it until it touches the floor;
3. Lock the foot, screwing in the nut, until it tightens against the bottom of the washing machine.

• Plug in the appliance.

WARNING: Contact the Customer Service Centre should the power cord need replacement.

Detergent drawer

The detergent draw is split into 3 compartments as illustrated in Figure 9:

• Compartment “1”: for prewash detergent;
• Compartment : for special additives, softeners, starch fragrances, etc.;
• Compartment “2”: for washing detergent.

WARNING: only use liquid products; the washing machine is set to automatically dose additives at each cycle during the last rinse.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To clean the washing machine exterior, use a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol, and/or solvents. To maintain a good wash performance, we recommend that the soap drawer and pump filters be regularly cleaned. A monthly service wash, using a proprietary cleaner, is also recommended.

Drawer cleaning

• We recommend you clean the drawer to avoid accumulating detergent and additive residue.
• To do this, extract the drawer using slight force, clean it with running water, and reinsert it in its housing.
• Ensure the siphon cap is correctly refitted.

Filter cleaning

• The washing machine comes with a special filter able to trap large residue, such as buttons or coins, which could clog the drain.
• Only available on certain models: pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper, and drain the water into a container.
• Ensure all the water has been emptied from the drum.
• Before unscrewing the filter, we recommend you place an absorbent cloth under it to keep the floor dry. A small amount of water will come out of the filter as you remove it – this is normal.
• Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the limit stop.
• Remove and clean the filter; when finished, replace it by turning it clockwise. The filter handle will be locked when it is not possible to turn any further, and the handle is horizontal. Smearing a small amount of liquid soap on the filter seal will help with refitting.
• Repeat the previous steps in reverse order to reassemble all parts.

Suggestions for moves or prolonged disuse

• Should the washing machine be stored in an unheated room for a long period of time, drain all water from the tubes.
• Unplug the washing machine.
• Detach the tube from the drainage system and clip it to the rear of the machine and lower it, fully draining water into a bowl.
• Secure the drain tube with the drainage system and clip it on the rear of the machine when finished.
• Keep the door glass and gasket clean.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you believe the washing machine is not working correctly, consult the quick guide provided below, which includes some practical tips on how to fix the most common problems.

ERROR CODE FORMAT

• Models with a display: the error is shown by a number preceded by the letter “E” (example: E2 = Error 2).
• Models without display: an error is shown by a sequence of flashes of every LED. The error code is shown by the number of flashes followed by a pause of 5 seconds (example: two flashes – pause 5 seconds – two flashes – repeating = Error 2).

E2 (with display) 2 flashes of the LEDs (without display)

The machine cannot load water.

• Make sure the water supply tap is open.
• Make sure the water supply hose isn’t bent, kinked, or trapped.
• Make sure the drain pipe is at the proper height (see installation section).
• Close the water supply tap, unscrew the filler hose from the back of the washing machine, and make sure the “anti-sand” filter is clean and not blocked.

E3 (with display) 3 flashes of the LEDs (without display)

The washing machine does not drain water.

• Make sure the filter is not clogged.
• Make sure the drain hose isn’t bent, kinked, or trapped.
• Make sure the home drainage system is not blocked and is allowing water to flow through without obstruction. Try to drain the water in the sink.

E4 (with display) 4 flashes of the LEDs (without display)

There is too much foam and/or water.

• Ensure the correct amount of detergent is being used and that the detergent is designed for use in a washing machine.

E7 (with display) 7 flashes of the LEDs (without display)

Door problem.

• Make sure the door is correctly closed.
• Make sure the clothes inside the drum are not preventing the door from closing fully.
• If the door is locked, turn off and unplug the washing machine from the electrical supply socket, wait 2-3 minutes, and reopen the door.

Any other code

• Turn off and unplug the washing machine, wait a minute. Turn on the machine and restart a program. If the error occurs again contact an Authorised Customer Service Centre directly.

OTHER ANOMALIES

The washing machine does not work/start

• Make sure the product is plugged into a working supply socket.
• Make sure the power is on.
• Make sure the wall socket is working, testing it with another appliance, such as a lamp.
• The door may not be closed correctly: open and close it again.
• Check whether the required program was correctly selected and the start button pressed.
• Make sure the washing machine is not in pause or time delay mode.

Water leaked on the floor near the washing machine

• This may be due to a leak from the seal between the tap, supply hose, and fill valve; in this case, replace it and tighten the hose connections correctly.
• Make sure the front filter is correctly closed.

The washing machine does not spin

• The machine is fitted with a detection system that protects the load and product from damage if the load is not balanced before spinning.
• This may result in:-

1. The machine attempts to balance the load, increasing the time of spin.
2. Reduction of the speed of spin to decrease vibrations and noise.
3. The spin cycle aborts to protect the machine and load.

If this is experienced, remove the load, de-tangle it, reload it, and restart the spin program.

• This could be due to the fact that water has not been completely drained: wait a few minutes. If the problem persists, see the Error 3 section.
• Some models include a “no spin” function: make sure it is not selected.
• Check which options are selected and their effect on the spin cycle.
• Excessive detergent can impede the spin cycle; ensure the correct amount of detergent is being used.
