Unpacking the Product Remove the machine from its packaging close to the final location of the machine. Step 1. Remove all outer packaging from the machine. Check there is no damage to the machine before continuing the installation process. Step 2. Carefully cut through the hose-retaining clip at the rear of the machine, taking care not to cut the hose itself. Step 3. Remove the 4 retaining screws at the rear of the machine, as indicated in the image on the left.
Installation Before installing the machine, ensure that the mains plug and water supply valves are easily accessible from your chosen machine location. Make sure there is enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 600mm wide and 850mm high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully so you can load and unload it easily. Keep the area underneath and around the machine free of combustible materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals etc.
Water Supply This machine should only be connected to a cold-water supply. The cold-water pressure should be between 0.5 and 8 bar (0.05-0.8 Mpa). Do not connect the machine to a single outlet instantaneous water heater. Before connecting the fill hose, check that the water is running from the water supply tap to be used. Let the water flow from the tap until the water runs clear before connecting to the machine. The water supply tap should be accessible when the machine is installed.
Connecting the Cold Water Supply Only one hose is required to install this machine to a cold water supply. Cold fill is an energy efficient system. Only the water required to wash the laundry is heated. There is no loss of heat in the pipeline from the hot water tank or the boiler. If your previous machine installation was hot and cold fill ensure that the hot tap is firmly closed to prevent leakage.
Connecting the drainage pipe This machine must be connected in accordance with the water supply regulations. Water bylaws prohibit connection to a surface water drain. Decide which plumbing option suits you best then follow the instructions below: Option 1 - Waste pipe connection (waste trap) Fit the hooked end support to the outlet pipe and position it at least 800mm off the floor.
Levelling The Machine Your machine is heavy so care must be taken when moving it. We recommend that two people move the machine to avoid strain and possible injury. Take care not to damage flooring when moving the machine and do not drag or lift the machine by its door. When moving the machine to its final position, take care not to kink or damage the hose at the back of the machine. Once the machine is in place the feet should be adjusted to ensure that the machine is level.
Step 5. Switch off the machine at the end of the cycle by turning the Programme Selector to the OFF position. Step 6. Select the spin programme and press the Start Pause button to start the machine. If the machine takes longer than one minute to empty check the drain hose for kinks. Installation testing is now complete. Now you have successfully installed the machine we advise that you run the machine to ensure the drum is thoroughly clean after testing and storage.

Perfect for people with delicate skin, this option can be selected on all Cotton and Synthetic cycles. This option does not need to be selected on the Delicate, Woollen or Silk programmes, as it is already an integrated part of the wash cycles.

Programme Descriptions For handling the various types of fabric and their level of dirtiness in your laundry the washing machine has different programme groups according to type of wash, temperature, spin speed and duration (see Programme Guide). Once the programme is selected, the intelligent sensor will weigh the laundry using the KG Mode and adjust the critical elements of the wash cycle depending on the weight of the laundry to ensure perfect results (available on Cotton and Synthetic cycle).

● The level of dirtiness It is possible to reduce the amount of detergent used depending on how dirty the laundry is. Use less detergent for items that are not very dirty. ● Amount of laundry It is possible to reduce the amount of detergent when washing only a small amount of laundry. For smaller loads use less detergent. The dosages shown on the packaging of detergents for washing delicates often already refer to a reduced wash size. Always follow the dosage instructions on the detergent packaging.
Laundry Items to avoid We recommend that you do not wash underwired bras in the machine. Should the wires become detached they could cause damage to your clothes and the machine. If the wash care label states that the bra is machine washable then we advise placing it in a wash bag. Recommendations Always follow the wash care labelling on the garments. Fasten zips, tie strings and close press-studs to prevent tangling. Ensure that pockets are emptied of loose change and other small items.
Running a Wash Cycle This section summarises the main points when completing a wash cycle. For detailed explanations of features, options and details of the machine refer to the relevant section in the instruction manual. Preparing the laundry Select and sort the laundry according to the wash care labels found on each garment. Loading the laundry Open the door. Put the laundry in the washing machine.
the wash cycle, the KG Mode will weigh the clothes and update the wash time remaining on the display every five seconds until the weight has been determined. In some programs in the initial phase of the cycle there are planned spin sequences to ensure optimal wash results. Do not try to open the door when the door locked indicator is on, nor open the dispenser drawer during the wash programme.
Care and Maintenance The washing machine needs very little maintenance, but regular attention to a few small details will ensure the continued performance of your washing machine. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, solvent-based cleaners or polishes; wiping the outside of the machine with a damp cloth will suffice. Cleaning the soap dispenser It is advisable to clean the compartments occasionally to remove detergents and additives. To do this you need to do the following: Step 1.
Step 4. Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops in the vertical position. Remove the filter and clean. Step 5. Replace the filter and turn in a clockwise direction until locked in position. Replace the stopper in the hose and close the filter cover. We recommend that the filter be cleaned frequently, at least once a month. Maintenance wash Using small quantities of detergent and low temperature wash programmes can cause the gradual build up of grease, dirt and scale.

If so, clear the blockage yourself or call a plumber. ● Is there clothing or dirt between the door gasket and the door glass? Ensure that the door glass and gasket are kept clean and free of laundry when loading the machine.
