20°C : For washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C. Steam Refresh: This programme refreshes garments by removing bad odours and relaxing the fibres (2 kg, roughly 3 items). Insert dry items only (that are not dirty) and select programme . The garments will be damp once the cycle is completed, so we recommend hanging them to dry. The programme makes ironing easier. Garments will be a little damp at the end of the cycle and can be worn after a few minutes. Moreover, with the “Steam Perfume” laundry balls, your favourite perfume can be added to your laundry. Place a few drops of perfume on the sponge contained inside the laundry ball, close it and insert it into the drum together with the laundry. Then launch the specific programme . At the end of the cycle, garments will be relaxed and fragrant
! The indicator light for the option will switch on when this cycle is selected.
! Not recommended for wool or silk garments.
! Do not add too much perfume to the sponge in order to avoid it dripping.
Cotton Hygiene Prewash : extremely soiled whites fabrics.
Cotton: Normally soiled cottons.
Synthetics Resistant : Suitable for washing moderately soiled garments made of synthetic fibres (e.g. polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.) or mixed synthetic-cotton fibres.
Whites: use this cycle to wash white clothes. The programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white clothes over time. If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automatically activates the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-air drying, with the advantages of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the possible presence of dust in the air. Drying cycles can only be selected on a levebasis.
Coloureds : use this cycle to wash bright coloured clothes. The programme is designed to maintain bright colours over time.
Wash &Dry: select programme for washing and drying lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a short time. This cycle may be used to wash and dry a laundry load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes. To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-treat cuffs, collars and stains.

If the selected option is not compatible with another option that has been selected previously, the indicator light corresponding to the first option selected will flash and only the second option will be activated; the indicator light corresponding to the button will remain lit at a constant manner.

Steam Hygiene
This option enhances washing performance by generating steam during the wash cycle that eliminates any bacteria from fibres while treating them at the same time. Place the laundry in the drum, choose a compatible programme and select option .
! The steam generated during washing machine operation may cause the porthole door to become hazy.|
Easy Iron
By selecting this option, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.
At the end of the cycle the washer-dryer drum will rotate slowly; the
“Easy Iron” and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash. To end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button.
Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is enabled only if combined with level “Iron”.
Extra rinse

Spin cycle
press to modify or exclude the spin cycle; the value selected will appear on the display above.
Drying
The first time the button is pressed, the machine will automatically select the maximum drying cycle which is compatible with the selected wash cycle. Subsequent presses will decrease the drying level and then the drying time until the cycle is excluded completely (“OFF”). If these buttons are pressed again, the maximum values are restored. Drying may be set as follows:
A – Based on a set time period: between 30 and 180 minutes.
B- Based on the desired laundry dryness level:
Iron: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards. the remaining dampness softens creases, making them easier to remove.
Hanger: ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully.
Cupboard: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a cupboard without being ironed.
Extra: suitable for garments which need to be dried completely, such as sponges and bathrobes.
If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load, perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this point, follow the instructions provided for a “Drying only” cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load.
A cooling-down period is always added to the end of each drying cycle.
Drying only
Use the cycle selector knob to select a drying cycle in accordance with the type of fabric. The desired drying level or time may also, be set using the DRYING button .
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
Sort your laundry according to Type of fabric/care label (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics, wool, handwash 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.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Before performing cleaning and maintenance, switch the washer-dryer off and disconnect it from the mains’ power. Do not use flammable liquids to clean the washing machine. Clean and maintain your washing machine periodically (at least 4 times per year).
Cutting off the water and electricity supplies
Close the water tap after every wash. This will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks. Unplug the washer- dryer when cleaning it and during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washer-dryer
The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer
Remove the dispenser drawer by lifting and pulling it outwards. Wash it under running water; this procedure should be effected regularly.
Caring for the door and drum
Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any maintenance. Small items (such as coins or buttons) may sometimes fall into the protective pre-chamber situated at the base of the pump.
! Make sure that the wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:

remove the covering panel on the front side of the machine by inserting a screwdriver in the centre and sides of the panel and using it as a lever;
position a container so that it will collect the water which flows out (approximately 1.5 l).
loosen the drainage pump cover by turning it anti-clockwise: it is normal for some water to leak out;
clean the inside thoroughly;
screw the cover back on;
put the panel back in place, making sure the hooks slot in place before pushing the panel onto the appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If it is cracked or broken, it must be replaced: during wash cycles, the high pressure of the water could suddenly split the hose open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
DIRECT INJECTION SYSTEM
The washing machine features the innovative “Direct Injection” technology that quickly solubilises the detergent and efficiently activates all the various components. The system guarantees the complete use and dissolution of the detergent, which is mixed with water before reaching the garments. This ensures better cleaning results already at low temperatures, providing significant energy savings while perfectly protecting colours and fibres. The “Direct Injection” technology is activated automatically in all the cycles.
LOAD BALANCING SYSTEM
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.
ACCESSORIES
Contact our Technical Assistance Service to check whether the following accessories are available for this washer-dryer model.
Stacking kit
With this accessory, you can secure the tumble dryer to the upper part of your washer-dryer to save space and facilitate the loading and unloading of the tumble dryer.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
Do not lift the washer-dryer by gripping it from the upper section. Unplug the appliance and close the water tap. Check that the door and detergent dispenser drawer are tightly closed. Detach the filling hose from the water tap then detach the drain hose. Empty all the water remaining in the hoses and secure the latter so that they do not get damaged during transport. Apply the transport bolts back on. Repeat, in reverse order, the transport bolt removal procedure described in the “Installation instructions”.
DEMO MODE: to deactivate this function, switch the washer-dryer OFF. Then press and hold the “Start/Pause” button, within 5 seconds press also “ON/OFF” button and hold both buttons for 2 seconds.
