Connecting the drain hose to the drain

Attach the end of the drain hose directly to the waste water drain, lavatory or bathtub.

CAUTION: Your drain house will be flooded if the hose comes out of its housing during water discharge. Moreover, there is a risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures! To prevent such situations and make sure that the machine performs water intake and discharge processes without any problem, fix the drain hose securely.

• Connect the drain hose to a minimum height of 40 cm and a maximum height of 100 cm.
• In case the drain hose is elevated after laying it on the floor level or close to the ground (less than 40 cm above the ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the laundry may come out excessively wet. Therefore, follow the heights described in the figure.
• To prevent the waste water from going back into the machine again and to ensure easy drainage, do not immerse the end of the hose into the wastewater or do not insert it into the drain for more than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short.
• The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between the drain and the machine.
• If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding an original extension hose. The length of the hose may not be longer than 3.2 m.

• Use an anti-limescale suitable for the washing machines.
• Some water might have remained in the product due to the quality control processes in the production. It is not harmful to the product.

Preparation

Sorting the laundry

• • Sort laundry according to the type of fabric, color, degree of soiling and allowable water temperature.
• Always obey the instructions given on the garment tags.

Preparing laundry for washing

• Laundry items with metal attachments such as underwired bras, belt buckles or metal buttons will damage the machine. Remove the metal pieces or wash the clothes by putting them in a laundry bag or pillowcase.
• Take out all substances in the pockets such as coins, pens and paper clips, and turn pockets inside out and brush. Such objects may damage the product or cause noise problems.
• Put small-size clothes such as infant socks and nylon stockings in a laundry bag or pillowcase.
• Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove curtain attachment items.
• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and tears.
• Wash “machine washable” or “hand washable” labelled products only with an appropriate programme.
• Do not wash colours and whites together. New, dark-coloured cottons release a lot of dye. Wash them separately.
• Tough stains must be treated properly before washing. If unsure, check with a dry cleaner.
• Only use the dyes/color changers and descaling agents which are appropriate to machine wash. Always follow the instructions on the package.
• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned inside out.
• Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the freezer for a few hours before washing. This will reduce pilling.
• Laundry that is subjected to materials such as flour, lime dust, milk powder, etc. intensely must be shaken off before being placed into the machine. Such dust and powders on the laundry may build up on the inner parts of the machine in time and can cause damage.

Tips for energy and water saving

The following information will help you use the product in an ecological and energy/water-efficient manner.

• Operate the product in the highest load capacity allowed for the programme you have selected, but do not overload. See, “Programme and consumption table”.
• Observe the temperature instructions on the detergent packaging.
• Wash slightly soiled laundry at low temperatures.
• Use faster programs for small quantities of lightly soiled laundry.
• Do not use prewash and high temperatures for laundry that is not heavily soiled or stained.
• If you plan to dry your laundry in a dryer, select the highest spin speed recommended during the washing process.
• Do not use more detergent than the recommended on the detergent packaging.

Loading the laundry

1. Open the laundry cover.
2. Put the laundry items into the machine in a loose manner.
3. Push and close the loading cover until you hear the locking sound. Ensure that no items are caught in the door. The loading door is locked while a program is running. The door can only be opened a while after the programme comes to an end.

• The maximum load capacity depends on the type of laundry, the degree of soiling and the washing programme desired.
• The machine automatically adjusts the water amount according to the weight of the laundry put inside it.
• WARNING: Follow the information in the “Programme and consumption table”. When overloaded, the machine’s washing performance will drop. Moreover, noise and vibration problems may occur.

Using detergent and softener

When using detergent, softener, starch, fabric dye, bleacher and decolorant, and descaling agents; read the manufacturer’s instructions written on the package and follow the dosages specified. Use a measuring cup if available.

The detergent drawer is composed of three compartments:

• (1) for prewash
• (2) for main wash
• (3) for softener
• ( ) in addition, there is a siphon piece in the softener compartment.

Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents

• Add detergent and softener before starting the washing programme.
• While the washing cycle is in progress, do not leave the detergent dispenser open!
• When using a program without prewash, do not put any detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. “1”).
• In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. “1”).
• Do not select a programme with prewash if you are using a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the detergent bag or the dispensing ball directly among the laundry in the machine.

If you are using liquid detergent, do not forget to place the liquid detergent container into the main wash compartment (compartment number “2”).

Choosing the detergent type

The detergent type to be used depends on the washing programme, fabric type and color.

• Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry.
• Wash your delicate clothes only with special detergents (liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) intended solely for delicate clothes and at suggested programmes.
• When washing dark-coloured clothes and quilts, it is recommended to use liquid detergent.
• Wash woollens at suggested programme with a special detergent made specifically for woollens
• Please review the program descriptions part for the suggested program for different textiles.
• All recommendations about detergents are valid for a selectable temperature range of programmes.
  • CAUTION: Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines.
  • CAUTION: Do not use soap powder.

Adjusting detergent amount

The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness.

• Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities recommended on the detergent package to avoid problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally, environmental protection.
• Use less detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes.

Using softeners

• Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent drawer.
• Do not exceed the (>max<) level sign on the softener compartment.
• If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting it in the detergent drawer.

Using liquid detergents

If the product contains a liquid detergent cup:

• Put the liquid detergent container into the compartment no “2”.
• If the liquid detergent loses its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting it into the detergent container.

If the product is equipped with a liquid detergent part:

• When you want to use liquid detergent, press on the point shown to rotate the apparatus. The part that falls off will function as a barrier for the liquid detergent.
• If required, clean the apparatus with water when it is in place or by removing it.
• If you will use powder detergent, the apparatus must be secured at the top position.
• If the product does not contain a liquid detergent cup:
• Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a programme with prewash.
• Liquid detergent stains your clothes when used with the Delayed Start function. If you are going to use the Delayed Start function, do not use liquid detergent.

Using gel and tablet detergent

• If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and your machine does not contain a special liquid detergent cup, put the gel detergent into the main wash detergent compartment during the first water intake. If your machine contains a liquid detergent cup, fill the detergent into this cup before starting the programme.
• If the gel detergent thickness is not fluid or in the shape of a capsule liquid tablet, put it directly into the drum before washing.
• Put tablet detergents into the main wash compartment (compartment nr. “2”) or directly into the drum before washing.

Using starch

• Put the liquid soda, powder soda or fabric dye into the softener compartment. Do not use softener and starch together in a washing cycle.
• Wipe the inside of the machine with a damp and clean cloth after using starch.

Using limescale remover

• When required, use limescale removers manufactured specifically for washing machines only. Using bleaches
• Add the bleach at the beginning of the washing cycle by selecting a prewash program. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment. As an alternative application, select a programme with extra rinse and add the bleaching agent while the machine is taking water from the detergent compartment during the first rinsing step.
• Do not use bleaching agents and detergents by mixing them.
• Use just a small amount (approx. 50 ml) of bleaching agent and rinse the clothes very well as it causes skin irritation. Do not pour the bleach onto the laundry and do not use it with the colored items.
• When using an oxygen-based decolorant, select a program that washes the laundry at a low temperature.
• Oxygen-based decolorant can be used with the detergent; however, if it is not at the same consistency, first put detergent in the compartment number “2” in the detergent dispenser and wait for the machine to flush the detergent when taking in water. While the machine continues taking in water, add decolorant in the same compartment.

  You can wash your durable cotton laundry (sheets, bed linens, towels, bathrobes, underwear etc.) in this programme. When you press the quick wash function key, programme duration becomes notably shorter but effective washing is ensured thanks to intense washing movements. If the quick wash function is not selected, superior washing and rinsing performance is ensured for your heavily soiled laundry.

• Sintetici (Synthetics)
  You can use this programme to wash t-shirts, synthetic/cotton mix fabrics etc. Programme duration is notably shorter and efficient washing performance is ensured. If the quick wash function is not selected, superior washing and rinsing performance is ensured for your heavily soiled laundry.

• Lana/ Lavaggio a Mano (Woollens / Hand Wash)
  Use this programme to wash your woollen/delicate clothes. Select the appropriate temperature complying with the tag of your clothes. Your laundry will be washed with very delicate movements to avoid any damage.

Additional programmes

For special cases, additional programmes are available on the machine.

INFORMATION: Additional programmes may differ according to the model of the machine.

Eco 40-60

The eco 40-60 programme is able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the same cycle, and this programme is used to assess compliance with the EU ecodesign legislation.

Although it washes longer than all other programmes, it provides high energy and water savings. The actual water temperature may be different from the stated wash temperature. When you load the machine with less laundry (e.g. ½ capacity or less), periods in programme stages may automatically get shorter. In this case, energy and water consumption will decrease.

• Hygiene
  This is a long programme you can use for laundry that requires hygienic and intense washing at a high temperature for a long time. A high level of hygiene is ensured thanks to the long heating and additional rinsing step.

• Classico (Classic)
  Use to wash your normally soiled, durable cotton and linen laundry. Although it washes longer than all other programmes, it provides high energy and water savings. Actual water temperature may be different from the stated wash temperature. When you load the machine with less laundry (e.g. ½ capacity or less), periods in programme stages may automatically get shorter. In this case, energy and water consumption will decrease more, providing a more economic wash

• Delicate (Delicates)
  You can use this programme to wash delicate laundry such as cotton/synthetic mix knitted clothes or socks. Washing movements in this programme are more delicate. Set the temperature to 20 degrees or use the Cold Wash option for clothes whose colour you wish to preserve.

• Xpress / Super Xpress
  Use this programme to wash your lightly soiled cotton clothes in a short time. The programme duration can be reduced to 14 minutes when the quick wash function is selected. When the quick wash function is selected, a maximum 2 (two) kg of laundry must be washed.

• Capi Scuri/ Jeans (Dark Care / Jeans)
  Use this programme to preserve the colour of your dark-coloured clothes and jeans. This programme provides high efficiency in washing, thanks to a special drum movement, even at low temperatures. It is recommended to use liquid detergent or woollen shampoo for dark-coloured laundry. Do not wash your delicate clothes that contain wool etc. in this programme.

• Mix 40
  You can use this programme to wash cotton and synthetics together without the need to sort them.

Cleaning the loading door and the drum

• For products with drum cleaning programme, please see Operating the product – Programmes.

• Repeat the Drum Cleaning process every 2 months.

• Use a detergent / anti-limescale suitable for the washing machines.

• After every washing make sure that no foreign substance is left in the drum. If the holes below shown in the figure are blocked, open the holes using a toothpick.

• Foreign metal substances will cause rust stains in the drum. Clean the stains on the drum surface by using cleaning agents for stainless steel.

• Never use steel wool or wire wool. These will damage the painted, chrome and plastic surfaces.

Cleaning the body and control panel

• Wipe the body of the machine with soapy water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents as necessary, and dry with a soft cloth.
• Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control panel.

Cleaning the water intake filters

There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve at the rear of the machine and also at the end of each water intake hose where they are connected to the tap. These filters prevent foreign substances and dirt in the water from entering the washing machine. Filters should be cleaned as they do get dirty.

1. Close the taps.
2. Remove the nuts of the water intake hoses to access the filters on the water intake valves. Clean them with an appropriate brush. If the filters are too dirty, remove them from their places with pliers and clean them in this way.
3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of the water intake hoses together with the gaskets and clean thoroughly under running water.
4. Replace the seals and filters carefully and tighten their nuts by hand.

Draining the remaining water and cleaning the pump filter

• The filter system in your machine prevents solid items such as buttons, coins and fabric fibres from clogging the pump impeller during the discharge of washing water. Thus, the water will be discharged without any problem and the service life of the pump will extend.
• If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter is clogged. The filter must be cleaned whenever it is clogged or every 3 months. Water must be drained off first to clean the pump filter.
• In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g., when moving to another house) and in case of freezing of the water, water may have to be drained completely.
  • CAUTION: Foreign substances left in the pump filter may damage your machine or may cause noise problems.
  • CAUTION: If the product is not being used, shut the tap shut, remove the main pipe and drain the water inside the machine against any likely freezing.
  • CAUTION: After each use, turn off the water tap to which the mains hose is connected.

1. In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge the water: 1 Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.

2. • CAUTION: The temperature of the water inside the machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid the burning risk, clean the filter after the water inside the machine is cooled down.

3. Open the filter cover.

4. Follow the below procedures in order to drain water.
   The product does not have an emergency water drain hose, in order to drain the water:

   • In order to collect the water to flow out of the filter, place a large vessel in front of the filter.
   • Turn and loosen the pump filter until water starts to flow (counterclockwise). Fill the flowing water into the container you have placed in front of the filter. Always keep a piece of cloth handy to absorb any spilled water.
   • When the water inside the machine is finished, take out the filter completely by turning it.

5. Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibres, if any, around the pump impeller region.

6. Replace the filter.

7. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one piece, place the tabs in the lower part into their places first, and then press the upper part to close.

How do I connect the water supply for the washing machine?

The water supply pressure required to run the product should be between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). You need to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open tap in one minute for smooth operation. If the water pressure is higher, consider attaching a pressure-reducing valve. It's important to note that models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap to avoid damaging the laundry or causing the product to switch to protection mode. Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product, as it may cause stains on your laundry. Tighten the nuts of the hose by hand, and avoid using tools for tightening. Check for leaks at the connection points by opening the taps fully after the hose connection. In case of leaks, turn off the tap, remove the nut, check the seal, and retighten the nut carefully. Keep the taps closed when the product is not in use to prevent water leaks and damage.

How should I connect the drain hose to the drain?

To connect the drain hose, attach the end of the drain hose directly to the waste water drain, lavatory, or bathtub. Secure the drain hose to a minimum height of 40 cm and a maximum height of 100 cm. Avoid elevating the drain hose after laying it on the floor or close to the ground (less than 40 cm above the ground) to prevent excessive wetness of the laundry. Do not immerse the end of the hose into the waste water or insert it into the drain for more than 15 cm; if it's too long, cut it short. Ensure that the hose end is not bent, stepped on, or pinched between the drain and the machine. If the hose length is too short, you can use an original extension hose, but its length should not exceed 3.2 m. To avoid water leaks, ensure a well-fitted connection between the extension hose and the drain hose of the product with an appropriate clamp to prevent it from coming off and leaking.

How do I adjust the feet of the washing machine?
