Setting the drying cycle

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").

Drying may be set as follows:

A- Based on the desired laundry dryness level:

Cupboard

: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a cupboard

without being ironed.

Hanger

: ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully.

Iron

: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards. the

remaining dampness softens creases, making them easier to remove.

B - Based on a set time period: between 210 and 30 minutes.

If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the

maximum stated load (see adjacent table of wash cycles), 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. Note: a cooling-down period is always added to

the end of each drying cycle.

Drying only

Press button

to perform the drying-only cycle. After selecting the

desired cycle (compatible with the type of garments), press button

exclude the washing phase and start the drying phase at the maximum

level for the selected cycle. The drying level or time may be set and

changed by pressing the drying button

(Not compatible with cycles 13 and 14).

PUSH & GO

To start the Push&Go cycle press and hold the button for 2 seconds.

The indicator lights up to show that the cycle has started. The wash and

drying cycle is ideal for cotton or synthetic fabrics, as it washes them at

a temperature of 30° and a maximum spin speed of 1000 rpm. During

the drying cycle the maximum temperature is 60°C. At the end of the

cycle the residual humidity will be the same as for the "

recommended load 3 kg.

The time displayed is the maximum time allowed by the Push&Go cycle.

If the load is lower than the maximum load or most garment are made of

synthetic materials, the actual time of the cycle will be shorter.

How does it work?

1. Load the laundry (cotton and/or synthetic garments) and close the door.

2. Pour the detergent and/or additives.

3. Start the cycle by pressing and holding the Push&Go button for 2

seconds. The relevant indicator light will turn green and the door will lock

(the DOOR LOCKED symbol is lit).

NB: starting the cycle through the Push&Go button activates an automatic

non-customisable wash and drying cycle recommended for cotton and

synthetic fabrics.

4. The automatic cycle can be used only for washing, excluding the drying

phase. Press the Push&Go button and then the drying button

drying icon of the "

TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS

Divide the laundry according to:

Type of fabric (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics, wool, garments to be

hand-washed). Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash new

coloured garments separately). Delicates (small garments – such as nylon

stockings – and items with hooks – such as bras: insert them in a fabric bag).

Empty the pockets:

Objects such as coins or lighters can damage the washer-dryer and the

drum. Check all buttons.

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

"Wash Cycle Table" 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 washer-dryer. Clean and maintain your washer-dryer periodically

(at least 4 times per year).

Disconnect the water and power 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.

Clean 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. The washer-dryer has a "Auto-clean" cycle for its internal parts; it

must be run without any load in the drum.

To optimise this cycle, it is possible to use either detergent (10% of the

quantity specified for lightly soiled garments) or special additives to clean

the washer-dryer. We recommend running a cleaning cycle every 40 wash

cycles. To start the cycle press buttons

seconds. The cycle will start automatically and will run for about 70

minutes. To stop the cycle, press the START/PAUSE

Clean the detergent dispenser drawer

Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

Care for the door and drum

Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant odours

from forming.

Clean the pump

The washer-dryer is fitted with a auto-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 the wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. remove the cover panel on the front of the machine by first pressing it

in the centre then pushing downwards on both sides to extract it;

2. loosen the drainage pump cover by turning it anti-clockwise: it is

normal for some water to leak out;

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the cover back on;

5. put the panel back in place, making sure the hooks slot in place before

pushing the panel onto the appliance.

Check 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.

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 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

"Health & Safety and Installation Guides".
