Ecological hints  
To save water and energy and help protect the  
environment, we recommend that you follow these  
hints:  
WARNING:  
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp  
socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.  
Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of  
safely.  
Normally soiled laundry may be washed without  
prewashing in order to save detergent, water and  
time (the environment is protected too!).  
The machine works more economically if it is fully  
loaded.  
With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited  
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be  
washed at a lower temperature.  
Measure out detergent according to the water  
hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of  
laundry being washed.  
Try to load the maximum drying capacity of the  
machine as small loads are uneconomical.  
Save energy and reduce drying time by ensuring the  
laundry load has been thoroughly spun before  
attempting to machine dry.  
Materials marked with the symbol  
recyclable.  
are  
Check with your local Council or Environmental  
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your  
area for re-cycling this appliance.  
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the  
power supply cable and make the door lock device  
unusable to prevent young children from being  
trapped inside.  
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised  
disposal sites for your old appliance.

Your new washer-dryer has been designed to be  
permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply  
and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it  
may be connected to a suitable existing tap with the  
drain hose discharging into a sink.  
The appliance has an inlet hose, with female 3/4” BSP  
thread connector. If this connection is not compatible  
with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety  
of connectors are available from good hardware stores  
and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic  
plumbing. Any alteration to your existing plumbing  
must be carried out by a competent person, or  
qualified plumber.

Installation on a Suspended  
Floor  
Suspended wooden floors are particularly susceptible  
to vibration. To help prevent vibration we recommend  
you place a waterproof wood panel, at least 15 mm  
thick under the appliance, secured to at least 2 floor  
beams with screws. If possible install the appliance in  
one of the corners of the room, where the floor is  
more stable.  
Water drainage  
This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed  
into your home's drainage system using one of the  
following methods.  
1. Into a drainage standpipe.  
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using  
the “U” piece” supplied.  
Water inlet  
Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread.  
Always use the hose supplied with the appliance to  
connect to the water supply.  
Do not use previously used hoses for water  
connection.  
U” piece  
supplied  
P1199  
Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should  
have an internal diameter of approximately 38mm thus  
ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose  
and standpipe.  
38 mm (11.2”)  
standpipe  
diameter  
P1088  
Installation should comply with local water authority  
and building regulations’ requirements.  
The appliance must be connected to a cold  
water supply.  
P1074  
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top  
of the standpipe is no more than 90cm (35.4'') and no  
less than 60cm (23.6'') above floor level.  
A minimum water pressure of 0.05 MPa (0.5 bar) is  
required for safe operation of the appliance.  
If you cannot make the cold water connection direct  
from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the  
appliance from your cold water storage system.  
3 pin  
There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m  
(16.5 ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom  
of the water storage tank.  
Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. After  
positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring  
nut again to prevent leaks.  
P1039  
The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4  
metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is  
available from your local Service Force Centre.  
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of  
18 mm.  
If your drain hose looks like this (see below) you do  
not require the “U” piece”. Just push the hose firmly  
into the standpipe.  
P0021

Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.  
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and  
displacement of the machine during operation.  
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a  
wooden floor.  
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to  
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,  
always place the machine on a solid floor.  
P1212  
2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.  
Special conditions  
If the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly or soft  
material, insert a rigid support base under the feet to  
prevent noise, vibration or displacement. The base  
should protrude a few centimetres beyond the edges of  
the machine.  
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove  
any blanking plug that may be in place.  
Warning  
The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile  
carpeting.  
Note  
P1197  
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is  
easily accessible for the engineer in the event of a  
breakdown.  
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a  
clip if required, ensure a loop is formed in the drain  
hose (see diagram) to prevent waste from the sink  
entering the washing machine.  
In the interest of the environment  
Washing machines and dishwashers should be  
connected to the FOUL drainage system, the water will  
then be taken to a sewage works for treatment before  
being discharged safely into a river.

Check whether the drum is completely empty, by  
rotating it with your hand. This is to prevent any items  
of laundry remaining accidentally in the drum, where  
they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by  
shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry.  
Should it not be possible to open the door, and should  
it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the machine  
off by turning the selector dial to “Off”.  
After approximately 3 minutes, you can open the door.  
Pay attention to the level and temperature of  
the water in the machine!  
We advise you to close the water supply tap and  
disconnect the plug from the socket.

Hints & Tips on Washing and Drying  
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the  
Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are  
difficult to remove and should be treated before  
washing with specific products, which can be found  
in most household shops. In some cases it may help  
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-  
soak product or biological detergent.  
If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin  
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left  
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not  
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a  
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to  
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.

Pillow case  
Tablecloth  
Serviette  
Do not leave the damp laundry load in a heap too  
long before drying.  
Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy  
items such as towels as these can attract the fluff.  
If you overdry the laundry, besides wasting energy,  
any subsequent ironing may become more difficult  
because the fabric could be heavily crumpled.  
Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished  
drying.  
To avoid a static charge when drying is completed,  
use either a fabric softener when you are washing  
the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for  
tumble dryers.  
Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains,  
woollen and silk, garments with metal inserts, nylon  
stockings, bulky garments such as anoraks,  
bedcovers, quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must not  
be machine dried.  
Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials  
similar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried;  
they represent a fire hazard.  
Also, fabrics containing residues of setting lotions or  
hair sprays, nail solvents or similar solutions must  
not be machine dried in order to avoid the  
formation of harmful vapours.

Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with  
small ones.  
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric,  
colour-fastness and how dirty it is.  
Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they  
may unravel.  
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects  
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws  
etc). as these could damage the drain pump.  
When washing curtains, remove the hooks.  
Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.  
It is essential to wash new coloured items separately  
when washing for the first time.  
For drying, follow the indications given on the  
manufacturer’s labels.  
When washing fabrics requiring different wash  
temperatures together, always select the lowest  
temperature.  
White items should not be washed with coloured  
items.  
Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)  
should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.  
Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic  
washing machines.  
Use the correct quantities of detergent.  
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small  
quantities.  
Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care  
and kept out of reach of children.  
May be tumble dried  
Drying at high temperature  
Drying at reduced temperature  
Do not tumble dry  
Important:  
As a dryer, the machine works on the condensation  
principle.  
Therefore, the water tap must be open and  
the drain hose must drain water into a sink  
or into the drain pipe, even during the drying  
cycle.

For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for  
dispensing detergents and liquid additives.  
Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by pushing

Maintenance and Cleaning  
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the  
electricity supply, before you can carry out any  
cleaning or maintenance work.  
Descaling  
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good  
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the  
C0114  
C0113  
machine. Do this separately from any washing, and  
according to the softening powder manufacturer's  
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of  
lime deposits.  
Cleaning the drawer recess  
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean  
the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is  
removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.  
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme  
without any clothes in the drum.  
After each wash  
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent  
mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.  
Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to  
preserve the door seal.  
Maintenance Wash  
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible  
to get a build up of residues inside the drum.  
We recommend that a maintenance wash be  
performed on a regular basis.  
P0038  
To run a maintenance wash:  
Cleaning the pump  
The water drain filter  
The drum should be empty of laundry.  
Select the hottest cotton wash programme.  
Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a  
powder (such as Ariel Futur).  
The pump should be inspected if  
• the machine does not empty and/or spin  
• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining  
due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking  
the pump.  
External cleaning  
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap  
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.  
Proceed as follows:  
• Disconnect the appliance.  
• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.  
• Open the pump door.  
Cleaning the dispenser drawer  
The detergent dispenser drawer should be cleaned  
regularly.  
Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards  
and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to  
remove any traces of accumulated powder.  
To aid cleaning, the top part of the fabric softener  
compartment should be removed.

• Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in a  
container and remove its cap.  
• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump  
cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry  
up spillage of water when removing the cover.  
Cleaning the water inlet filter  
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime  
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.  
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.  
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.  
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.  
Tighten up the inlet hose. Clean carefully under a fast  
running tap.  
P1115  
Remove any objects from the pump impeller by  
rotating it.

The dangers of freezing  
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,  
certain precautions should be taken.  
Turn off the water tap.  
Unscrew the inlet hose.  
Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and  
that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor  
and let water drain out.  
• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose  
and place the latter back in its seat.  
Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition  
the emergency emptying hose after having put the  
cap on again.  
When you intend to start the machine up again,  
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C  
P1117  
• Screw the pump cover fully in.  
• Close the pump door.  
Warning  
When the appliance is in use and depending on the  
programme selected there can be hot water in the  
pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash  
cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the  
cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it  
is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young  
children being able to remove it.

Emergency emptying out  
If the water is not drained, proceed as follows to empty  
out the machine:  
• Pull out the plug from the power socket;  
• Close the water tap;  
• If necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;  
• Open the pump door;  
• Place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the  
emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its  
cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl.  
When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose.  
Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water  
stops flowing out;  
• Clean the pump if necessary as previously described;  
• Replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after  
having plugged it;  
• Screw the pump cover again and close the door.

Something Not Working  
If the washing machine is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before  
contacting your local Service Force agent.  
IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or  
installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.  
During machine operation it is possible that one of the following alarm codes appears on the display:  
E 10  
E 2 0  
E 40  
-

The “Rinse hold” option has been selected.  
The drainage system pipes are blocked.  
The programme “Soak 30°”, which ends with water left in the tub,  
has been selected.  
The wash load is unbalanced: redistribute the clothes inside the drum  
to allow the machine to spin.  
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates  
too much foam).  
Check whether there are any leaks from the inlet hose fittings. It is not  
always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see  
if it is damp.  
There is water on the floor  
The drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned.  
The filter has not been fully screwed in after cleaning.  
Unsatisfactory washing results  
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. An  
insufficient amount of detergent leaves the laundry looking grey and  
causes lime scale to form.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing  
The correct wash programme/temperature has not been selected.  
Too much laundry has been placed in the drum.

Symptom  
Possible causes  
The machine vibrates when  
spinning  
The internal packing has not been removed.  
The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.  
The machine is not level and stable (check diagonally).  
The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.  
The door will not open  
The water level is above the bottom edge of the door.  
The machine is heating the water.  
The drum is turning.  
In any case the door can be opened only when the door locked  
light has gone out.  
The electronic balance control device has cut in because the laundry is  
Spinning starts late or the  
machine does not spin  
not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by  
reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before  
the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after few  
minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the  
machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and  
select the spin programme.  
The machine makes an unusual  
noise  
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual  
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor  
ensures a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the  
drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.  
No water is visible in the drum  
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically  
using very little water without affecting performance.  
The machine does not dry or  
does not dry properly  
The drying time or degree of drying has not been selected  
E 10  
The water tap is not turned on (  
)
E 2 0
