PROGRAMMES
Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garment’s wash care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum recommended temperature for washing the garment. Anti Stain 40
This cycle is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours.
It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of different colours. We
recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives
is recommended if there are obstinate stains
Anti Stain Quick
This cycle is ideal for washing daily stains in 45’. It is ideal for mixed
fabrics and coloured garments.
White
For washing normally to heavily soiled towels, underwear, table and bed linen,
etc in resilient cotton and linen. Only when the temperature is selected at
90°C the cycle is provided with a prewash phase before main washing phase. In
this case it is recommended to add detergent both, in the prewash and main
wash section.
Bed Bath
For washing home linen in a single cycle. It optimises the use of fabric
softener and allows for saving time and electricity. We recommend the use of
powder detergent.

the door will be unlocked ( symbol OFF) and then locked again ( symbol on) as
preparation phase of each washing cycle. The “Clicking” noise is part of the
door locking mechanism. Water will enter the drum and start the washing phase
once the door is locked.

option, only the most recent selection will remain active.
Energy saver
This option saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry –
an advantage both to the environment and to your energy bill. Instead,
intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in
the same average time of a standard cycle. For the best washing results we
recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

set the desired delay time. Symbol lights on the display when this function is
enabled. To cancel the delayed start, press the button again until the value
‚ ‘‘0‘‘ is shown on the display.
Cleaning Action
Option “Cleaning Action” makes it possible to optimise washing based on the
level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash cycle intensity. For heavily-
soiled garments press “Cleaning Action” button until the “ ” level is
reached. This level ensures a high-performance wash due to a larger quantity
of water used in the initial phase of the cycle and due to increased drum
rotation. It is useful when removing the most stubborn stains. For lightly-
soiled garments or a more delicate treatment of the fabrics, press “Cleaning
Action” button until the “ ” level is reached. The cycle will reduce drum
rotation to ensure washing results that are perfect for delicate garments.
Multi Rinse
By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal
detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin.
Press the button once, two or three times to select an additional rinses after
the standard cycle rinse and remove all traces of detergent. Press the button
again to go back to the “Normal rinse” rinse type.

HINTS AND TIPS
Sort your laundry according to
Type of fabric/care label (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics, wool, hand wash
items). Colour (separate coloured and white items, wash new coloured items
separately). Delicates (wash small items – like nylon stockings – and items
with hooks – like bras – in a cloth bag or pillow case with zip).
Empty all pockets
Objects like coins or lighters can damage your laundry as well as the drum.
Follow the dosage recommendation / additives
It optimizes the cleaning result, it avoids irritating residues of surplus
detergent in your laundry and it saves money by avoiding waste of surplus
detergent
Use low temperature and longer duration
The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are generally
those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
Observe the load sizes
Load your washing machine up to the capacity indicated in the “PROGRAMME
CHART” table to save water and energy.
Noise and remaining moisture content
They are influenced by the spinning speed: the higher the spinning speed in
the spinning phase, the higher the noise and the lower the remaining moisture
content.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
For any cleaning and maintenance, switch off and unplug the washing machine.
Do not use flammable fluids to clean the washing machine. Clean and maintain
your washing machine periodically (at least 4 times per year).
Cleaning the outside of the washing machine
Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outer parts of the washing machine. Do not
use glass or general purpose cleaners, scouring powder or similar to clean the
control panel – these substances might damage the printing.
Checking the water supply hose

it by a new hose available through our After-Sales Service or your specialist
dealer.
Cleaning the water filter / draining residual water
Switch off and unplug the washing machine, take out the kitchen plinth before
cleaning the water filter or draining residual water.
The kitchen plinth must be mounted back all the time once the cleaning
operation is over.
If you used a hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down before
draining any water. Clean the water filter regularly, to avoid that the water
cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the filter. If the water
cannot drain, the display indicates that the water filter may be clogged.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The washing machine may sometimes not work properly for certain reasons. Before calling the After-sales service, it is recommended to check to see if the problem can be easily resolved using the following list.
| Anomalies: | Possible causes / Solution: |
|---|---|
| The washing machine does not turn on. | • The plug is not inserted into |
the electrical outlet, or not enough to make contact.
• There has been a power failure.
The wash cycle does not start.
| • The door is not fully closed.
• The “ON/OFF” button has not been pressed.
• The “Start/Pause” button has not been pressed.
• The water tap is not open.
• A “Start Delay” has been set.
The washing machine does not fill with water (the message “h2o” is shown on the display).

• If the problem persists after having performed these checks, close the water
tap, shut off the washing machine, and call the After-sales service. If the
dwelling is located on one of the uppermost floors of a building, a siphon
effect can sometimes occur, thus causing the washing machine to load and drain
water continuously. Special anti-siphon valves are available on the market to
prevent these types of problems.

(e.g. F-01, F-..).| • Shut off the machine, disconnect the plug from
the outlet, and wait about 1 minute before turning it back on.
• If the problem persists, call the After-sales service.
Too much foam is formed.| • The detergent is not compatible with the
washing machine (it must bear the wording “for washing machines”, “for hand
washing and washing machines”, or something similar).
• The dosage was excessive.
Door is locked, with or without failure indication, and the programme
does not run.| • Door is locked in case of power breakdown. Programme will
continue automatically as soon as the mains is available again.
