Your New Washer-Dryer
Your new machine meets all modern requirements for effective treatment of
laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption. It is gentle with
your laundry, simple to use and easy to care for.
n Programme and temperature setting using the programme selector.
n The special wool programme with its new delicate wash system treats your
woollens with extreme care.
n Automatic cooling of the wash water to 60°C before draining, with the 95°C
programme. This reduces thermal shock to fabrics, helping to prevent creasing.
n The two drying programmes will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel
whatever the weather.
Ecological hint s
To save water and energy and help protect the environment, we recommend that
you follow these hints:
n Adjust the quantity of detergent according to the hardness of your water
supply, the amount of laundry and the degree of soiling.
n Select a “Quick” programme for lightly soiled laundry.
n A programme without prewash or an Economy programme is sufficient for
normally soiled laundry.
n Try to load the maximum drying capacity of the machine as small loads are
uneconomical.
n Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the
electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.
In t he int erest of t he environment
n Materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.
n Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there
are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.
n 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.
n Help to keep your country tidy – use authorised disposal sites for your old
appliance.
How do we help to protect the environment? We use recycled paper!
Import ant
Your machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the
machine is stable during the spin. If the wash load appears not to have been
spun sufficiently at the end of the wash cycle, because it is not evenly
distributed in the drum, the balance control device may have operated. It will
therefore be necessary to redistribute the wash load manually and select a
spin programme. For more detailed information see the section headed
“Something Not Working”.

Washing and Drying Hints
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the first few times you use the
appliance.
The average weights of the most common items are listed below as a guide:
1000g = 1 kg Sheet Pillow case Tablecloth Serviette Tea towel Linen hand towel Towelling hand towel Towelling bath towel Bath robe Man’s shirt Apron
700-1000 g 100-200 g 400-500 g 50-100 g 70-120 g 100-150 g 150-250 g 700-1000 g 1000-1500 g 200-300 g 150-200 g
n Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with small ones.
n Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour-fastness and how
dirty it is.
n Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may unravel.
n 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.
n When washing curtains, remove the hooks.
n Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.
n It is essential to wash new coloured items separately when washing for the
first time.
n When washing fabrics requiring different wash temperatures together, always
select the lowest temperature.
n White items should not be washed with coloured items.
n Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc) should be washed in a
washing bag or a pillow case.
n Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic washing machines.
n Use the correct quantities of detergent.
n For wool, use gentle detergent only in small quantities.
n Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care and kept out of reach
of children.
n 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 presoak product or biological detergent.
n Only wool marked “Pure New Wool – washable, preshrunk” can be washed in the
machine using the wool programme; other types of wool should be washed by hand
or dry cleaned.
n 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.
n Do not leave the damp laundry load in a heap too long before drying.
n Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy items such as towels as
these can attract the fluff.
n If you overdry the laundry, besides wasting energy, any subsequent ironing
may become more difficult because the fabric could be heavily crumpled.
n Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished drying.
n 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.
n 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.
n Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials similar to foam-rubber must
not be machine dried; they represent a fire hazard.
n 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.
n For drying, follow the indications given on the manufacturer’s labels.
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 taps must be open and the drain hose must drain water
into a sink or into the drain pipe, even during the drying cycle.

Which det ergent ?….
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your appliance, it is
important to use the right detergent in your everyday wash, and only
detergents recommended for use in automatic machines. To maintain the
appearance of your clothes and household textiles and to make them last longer
you should use different types of detergent for different washes, whether for
whites, colours or delicates.
WHITES
We recommend the Ariel product range which is biological and designed to
provide excellent cleaning and stain removal even at low temperatures.
NON BIOLOGICAL
If you prefer to use a non biological detergent, which does not contain
enzymes we recommend Fairy. Fairy provides good cleaning and stain removal.
COLOUREDS
For coloured items you should use a detergent which is designed to clean while
maintaining the original colour. Ariel Color does not contain bleach and
therefore helps to preserve colours.
DELICATE ITEMS
When washing delicates such as woollens, you should use a product which is
specially designed to care for fine fabrics. Dreft Automatic is suitable for
woollens and other delicates.
LAUNDRY BLEACH
For additional stain removal you may wish to use a product such as Ace Gentle
Bleach which is used in addition to your chosen detergent. Ace is suitable for
all washable fabrics including silks, woollens and coloureds.
A nd in which form?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they are also available
in different forms. Whether you chose a powder or liquid in traditional or
compact form is to own personal choice.
TRADITIONAL POWDERS
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do not sprinkle powder
onto clothes in the machine drum.
TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer
marked with the symbol , start the machine immediately upon placing the
detergent in the dispenser drawer. Alternatively the detergent is measured
into the specially designed dosing device which should be placed on top of
the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.
COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also known) are available in
liquid or powder form, and generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most economical usage. Pour the
detergent directly into the dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the
detergent into the specially designed dosing device which should be placed on
top of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.
- If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer, please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed before carrying out a drying programme.
FABRIC CONDITIONERS
These are ideal for improving `softness’, and also reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing easier. They are available in two types:
For example Lenor liquid fabric softener, for use in the washing machine/washer dryer. The liquid fabric softener should be poured into the compartment marked with the symbol . Follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions and never exceed the MAX level.
Bounce conditioning sheets for use in a tumble dryer. We recommend the
conditioning sheets are pinned (using a safety pin) to an article of laundry
and placed in the tumble dryer.

For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for dispensing detergents
and liquid additives. Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by pushing
it in gently. This is particularly important if you are using
fabric conditioner to avoid the conditioner entering the machine prematurely. When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme, place the detergent into the correct compartment in the dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.
17
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity supply.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use
a water softening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry
washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer’s instructions.
This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.
A ft er 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.
Ext ernal cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then
dry thoroughly.
Cleaning t he dispenser drawer
From time to time the washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be
cleaned. 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 additive compartment should be removed.
Cleaning t he 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 for a few minutes
without any clothes in the drum.
P0038
Cleaning t he filt er
The water drain filter
A clean filter is important for the correct operating of the machine, and
should therefore be cleaned after every washing programme. Place a container
under the filter to catch any spillage. If the filter is blocked and the
machine is unable to drain you will need to drain the water manually from the
machine at this stage. To do this, unhook the drain hose from the standpipe or
sink and hold the end of the hose over a bowl on the floor. The water should
drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, hook the hose back up
and empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out.
Unscrew and remove the filter.
P0010
P0009
P0037
18
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.
P0039
P0040
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can
be hot water in the filter. Never remove the filter during a wash cycle,
always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When
replacing the filter, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks
and young children being able to remove it.
The water inlet filters
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet
filters may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean them from time to time.
Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses. Remove and clean the
filters using a hard bristle brush. Replace the filters and tighten up the
inlet hoses.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, certain precautions
should be taken.
n Turn off the water taps.
n Unscrew the inlet hoses.
n Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and position the end of this
hose and that of the inlet hoses in a bowl. Run the draining programme.
n Disconnect the appliance.
n Screw the inlet hoses and reposition the drain hose.
n When you intend to start the machine up again, make sure that the room
temperature is above 0°C.

Something Not Working
Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which
can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. Before contacting your
local Electrolux Service Force Centre, please carry out the checks listed
below.
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.
Symptom
Possible causes
The machine does not start
n The door has not been closed. n The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket. n There is no supply at the socket. n The main fuse or the fuse in the plug has blown. n The selector dial is not correctly positioned. n The ON/OFF button has not been depressed.
The machine does not fill
n Ensure the water taps are open. n The filters in the inlet hoses are blocked. n The inlet hoses may be squashed or kinked. n The door has not been closed.
The machine fills then empties immediately
n The end of the drain hose is too low. n The end of the drain hose is submerged in water. n There is no vent in the end of the drain hose.
The machine does not empty and/or does not spin
n The drain hose may be squashed or kinked. n The RINSE HOLD option has been
selected. n The drain filter may be blocked. n The drain hose extension, if
fitted, is not correct. Follow the instructions
for connecting to the waste. n The drainage system pipes are blocked. n The
washload is unbalanced: redistribute the clothes inside the drum to
allow the machine to spin.
There is water on the floor
n Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used (creates too much
foam).
n Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose(s) fittings. It
is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see
if it is damp.
n The drain hose may be damaged or not securely positioned. n The detergent
dispenser drawer or recess is clogged. n The drainage system pipes are
blocked.
Unsatisfactory washing results
n 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.
n Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing n The correct wash
programme has not been selected. n Too much laundry has been placed in the
drum.
The machine vibrates when spinning n The internal packing has not been removed. n The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture. n The machine is not stable and level (check diagonally). n The washing load is badly distributed in the drum. n Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
20
Symptom
The door will not open
The machine makes an unusual noise
Spinning starts late or the machine does not spin
No water is visible in the drum The machine does not dry or does not dry
properly
Possible causes
n The programme is still running. n The door lock has not yet released. n
There is water in tub.
n 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.
n The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is
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 10 minutes, the laundry
is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In
this case, redistribute the load manually and reselect the spin programme.
n Machines based on modern technology operate very economically using very
little water without affecting performance.
n The drying time has not been selected n The water taps are not turned on n
The drain filter is clogged n The machine is overloaded n The selected drying
time or sector are not suitable for the laundry
If after the above checks, there is still a fault, call your local Electrolux
Service Force Centre.

P0003
If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two hoses to a cold
water outlet by means of a «Y» connection piece. Installation should comply
with local water authority and building regulations’ requirements. The
appliance must be given a separate cold water supply and not be connected to a
mixer tap, a single outlet water heater or a booster pump. A minimum water
pressure of 0.48 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. 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. There will be sufficient pressure
for the hot water supply, providing there is a minimun height of 2.74 metres
(9 ft) between the bottom of the cold water storage tank and the bottom of the
hot water cylinder. Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts. After
positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten the ring nuts again to prevent
leaks.

Important
Before connecting up the machine to new pipework or to pipework that has not
been used for some time, run off a reasonable amount of water to flush out any
debris that may have collected in the pipes.
Levelling
Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the feet. The feet may be
tight to adjust as they incorporate a self locking nut, but the machine MUST
be level and stable.
P1051
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.
Special condit ions
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.
Warning The machine should NOT be placed on deep pile carpeting.
Note Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily
accessible for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.
In t he int erest of t he env ir o nm ent
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. It is essential that these appliances
are not connected to the surface water drainage system as this water is

adjoining plinth line will allow. The reason for placing the base in this
position is to allow a small strip of beading to be fitted in front of the
appliance feet.
Fix the base firmly to the floor using four appropriate countersunk screws
(see Fig. H).

With the appliance installed adjust all four feet ensuring the machine is
stable, and a clearance of approximately 5 mm is left between the top of the
machine and the underside of the worktop.
A final check for stability should be carried out with the machine on spin
with a load, this will identify the need for any further fine adjustment to
the feet.
A strip of beading approximately 605 mm W, x 5 mm H, x 25 mm D must be screwed
down into the base directly in front of the machine’s feet, this will provide
additional security.
If required an additional door magnet, part number 1242394-00/3 and disc, part
number 1242393-00/5 are available from spare parts.
