, 29

Installation

 This instruction manual should be kept in a safe

place for future reference. If the washing machine is

sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the

instruction manual remains with the machine so that

the new owner is able to familiarise himself/herself

with its operation and features.

 Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital

information relating to the safe installation and

operation of the appliance.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Remove the washing machine from its packaging.

2. Make sure that the washing machine has not been

damaged during the transportation process. If it has

been damaged, contact the retailer and do not

proceed any further with the installation process.

3. Remove the 4

protective screws (used

during transportation) and

the rubber washer with

the corresponding

spacer, located on the

rear part of the appliance

(see figure).

4. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs provided.

5. Keep all the parts in a safe place: you will need

them again if the washing machine needs to be

moved to another location.

 Packaging materials should not be used as toys for

children.

Levelling

1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor,

without resting it up against walls, furniture cabinets

or anything else.

2. If the floor is not

perfectly level, compen-

sate for any unevenness

by tightening or loosening

the adjustable front feet

(see figure); the angle of

inclination, measured in

relation to the worktop,

must not exceed 2°.

Levelling the machine correctly will provide it with

stability, help to avoid vibrations and excessive noise

and prevent it from shifting while it is operating. If it is

placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a

way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space

underneath the washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and water

supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

1. Insert seal A into the

end of the inlet hose and

screw the latter onto a

cold water tap with a 3/4

gas threaded opening

(see figure).

Before performing the

connection, allow the

water to run freely until it

is perfectly clear.

2. Connect the inlet hose

to the washing machine

by screwing it onto the

corresponding water inlet

of the appliance, which is

situated on the top right-

hand side of the rear part

of the appliance (see

figure).

3. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

 The water pressure at the tap must fall within the

values indicated in the Technical details table (see

next page).

 If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a

specialised shop or an authorised technician.

 Never use second-hand hoses.

 Use the ones supplied with the machine.

Connecting the drain hose

Connect the drain hose,

without bending it, to a

draining duct or a wall

drain situated between

65 and 100 cm from

the floor;

alternatively, place it

over the edge of a

basin, sink or tub,

fastening the duct

supplied to the tap (see

figure). The free end of

the hose should not be

underwater.

 We advise against the use of hose extensions; in

case of absolute need, the extension must have the

same diameter as the original hose and must not

exceed 150 cm in length.

Specials wash cycles

Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 6). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach.

Pour the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled

Detergent dispenser drawer).

Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 7). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The

wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in

the drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin

cycle and drain the water automatically after 8 hours.

Baby cycle (wash cycle 8). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring

that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The

cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect

of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.

At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle

press the START/PAUSE button.

Mix 30 (wash cycle 4) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and

therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (4 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics

together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.

Mix 15(wash cycle 5) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and

therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics

together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.

Setting the temperature

Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Table of wash cycles).

The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash (

The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the

maximum value set for each wash cycle.

Setting the spin speed

Turn the SPIN SPEED knob to set the spin speed for the selected wash cycle.

The maximum spin speeds available for each wash cycle are as follows:

Wash cycles Maximum spin speed

Cottons 1000 rpm

Synthetics 800 rpm

Wool 600 rpm

Silk drain only

The spin speed may be lowered, or the spin cycle can be excluded altogether by selecting the symbol

The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a spin speed which is higher than the

maximum speed set for each wash cycle.

Functions

The various wash functions available with this washing machine will help to achieve the desired results, every time.

To activate the functions:

1. Press the button corresponding to the desired function;

2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated.

Note: If the indicator light flashes rapidly, this signals that this particular function may not be selected in

conjunction with the selected wash cycle.

Delay timer

This timer delays the start time of the wash cycle by up to 12 hours.

Press the button repeatedly until the indicator light corresponding to the desired delay time switches on. The fifth time

the button is pressed, the function will be disabled.

N.B. Once you have pressed the START/PAUSE button, the delay time may only be decreased if you wish to modify it.

 This option is enabled with all programmes.

Easy iron

By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.

At the end of the cycle the washing machine will perform slow rotations of the drum; the EASY IRON and START/

PAUSE indicator lights will flash (orange) and the

phase will remain lit in a fixed manner. To end the cycle, press

the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

For the Silk (10) wash cycle, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking, the EASY IRON and

START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash (orange) and the RINSE phase will remain lit in a fixed manner. To drain the

water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, C, D, E.

Extra rinse

By selecting this function, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is

particularly useful for sensitive skin.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, C, D, E.

Super Wash

Because a greater quantity of water is used in the initial phase of the cycle, and because of the increased cycle

duration, this function offers a high-performance wash.

 This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, A, B, C, D, E.

Personalisation

Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct

dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not

necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in

fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance

and contribute to environmental pollution.

 Do not use hand washing detergents because these

create too much foam.

Open the detergent

dispenser drawer and

pour in the detergent or

washing additive, as

follows.

compartment 1: Detergent for the wash cycle

(powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately

prior to the start of the wash cycle.

compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.

extra compartment 3: Bleach

Bleach cycle

Bleaching may only be performed in conjunction with

wash cycles 1, 2, 6.

Pour the bleach into extra compartment 3; pour the

detergent and softener into the corresponding

compartments, then select one of the

abovementioned wash cycles.

This option is recommended only for very soiled

cotton garments.

Preparing the laundry

 Divide the laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label

- the colours: separate coloured garments from

whites.

 Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.

 Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the

weight of the laundry when dry:

Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg

Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

Wool: max. 1,5 kg

MAX

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g

1 pillow case 150-200 g

1 tablecloth 400-500 g

1 bathrobe 900-1200 g

1 towel 150-250 g

Garments requiring special care

Shirts: use special wash cycle 9 to wash shirts in

various fabrics and colours.

It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments

and minimises the formation of creases.

Silk: use special wash cycle 10 to wash all silk

garments. We recommend the use of special

detergent which has been designed to wash delicate

clothes.

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow

case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 10.

Wool: Ariston is the only washing machine

manufacturer to have been awarded the prestigious

Woolmark Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by

the Woolmark Company, which means that all

woollen garments may be washed in the washing

machine, even those which state hand wash only

on the label. Wash cycle 11 therefore offers

complete peace of mind when washing woollen

garments in the washing machine (max. load 1,5 kg)

and guarantees optimal performance.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations

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 washing machine

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.

Precautions and tips

 This washing machine was designed and

constructed in accordance with international safety

regulations. The following information is provided for

safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.

General safety

 This appliance was designed for domestic use only.

 The washing machine must only be used by adults, in

accordance with the instructions provided in this manual.

 Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with

wet or damp hands or feet.

 Do not pull on the power supply cable when

unplugging the appliance from the electricity

socket. Hold the plug and pull.

 Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while

the machine is in operation.

 Do not touch the drained water as it may reach

extremely high temperatures.

 Never force the porthole door. This could damage

the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent

accidental opening.

 If the appliance breaks down, do not under any

circumstances access the internal mechanisms in

an attempt to repair it yourself.

 Always keep children well away from the appliance

while it is operating.

 The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.

 If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group

of two or three people and handle it with the utmost

care. Never try to do this alone, because the

appliance is very heavy.

 Before loading laundry into the washing machine,

make sure the drum is empty.

Disposal

 Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local

regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.

 The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that

old household electrical appliances must not be

disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste

stream. Old appliances must be collected

separately in order to optimise the recovery and

recycling of the materials they contain and reduce

the impact on human health and the environment.

The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the

product reminds you of your obligation, that when

you dispose of the appliance it must be separately

collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or

retailer for information concerning the correct

disposal of their old appliance.

Opening the porthole door manually

In the event that it is not possible to open the

porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to

remove the laundry, proceed as follows:

1. remove the plug from

the electrical socket.

2. make sure the water

level inside the machine is

lower than the door

opening; if it is not, remove

excess water using the

drain hose, collecting it in a

bucket as indicated in the

figure.

3. using a screwdriver,

remove the cover panel on

the lower front part of the

washing machine (see

figure).

4. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the

figure, until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop

position; pull downwards and open the door at the

same time.

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are

securely in place before you push it onto the

appliance.

Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and electricity

supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This

will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside the

washing machine and help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washing machine

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

by raising it and pulling it

out (see figure).

Wash it under running

water; this operation

should be repeated

frequently.

Caring for the door and drum of your

appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning

pump which does not require any maintenance.

Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)

may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the

pump, situated in its bottom part.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug

the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a screwdriver,

remove the cover panel

on the lower front part of

the washing machine

(see figure);

2. unscrew the lid by

rotating it anti-clockwise

(see figure): a little water

may trickle out. This is

perfectly normal;

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the lid back on;

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are

securely in place before you push it onto the

appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are

any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during

the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a

cracked hose could easily split open.

 Never use second-hand hoses.

 The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.

If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap,

switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the

dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems

relating to water drainage, causing the washing machine to fill with water

and drain continuously. Special anti-draining valves are available in shops

and help to avoid this inconvenience.

 The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require

the drain phase to be started manually.

 The EASY IRON function has been activated: To complete the wash

cycle, press the START/PAUSE button (Personalisation).

 The drain hose is bent (see Installation).

 The drainage duct is clogged.

 The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see Installation).

 The washing machine is not level (see Installation).

 The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see Installation).

 The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see Installation).

 The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see

Care and maintenance).

 The drain hose is not fixed properly (see Installation).

 Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute

and then switch it back on again.

If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.

 The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the

text for washing machines or hand and machine wash, or the like).

 Too much detergent was used.

Service

Before calling for Assistance:

 Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see Troubleshooting);

 Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;

 If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre using the telephone number

provided on the guarantee certificate.

 Always request the assistance of authorised technicians.

Have the following information to hand:

 the type of problem;

 the appliance model (Mod.);

 the serial number (S/N).

This information can be found on the data plate applied to the rear of the washing machine, and can also

Mode demploi

LAVE-LINGE

Installation

 Conserver ce mode demploi pour pouvoir le

consulter à tout moment. En cas de vente, de

cession ou de déménagement, veiller à ce quil suive

toujours le lave-linge pour que son nouveau

propriétaire soit informé sur son mode de

fonctionnement et puisse profiter des conseils

correspondants.

 Lire attentivement les instructions: elles fournissent

des conseils importants sur linstallation, lutilisation et

la sécurité de lappareil.

Déballage et mise à niveau

Déballage

1. Déballer le lave-linge.

2. Contrôler que le lave-linge na pas été endommagé

pendant le transport. Sil est abîmé, ne pas le

raccorder et contacter le vendeur.

3. Enlever les 4 vis de

protection servant au

transport, le caoutchouc

et la cale, placés dans la

partie arrière (voir figure).

4. Boucher les trous à laide des bouchons plastique

fournis.

5. Conserver toutes ces pièces: il faudra les remonter

en cas de transport du lave-linge.

 Les pièces demballage ne sont pas des jouets pour

enfants.

Mise à niveau

1. Installer le lave-linge sur un sol plat et rigide, sans

lappuyer contre des murs, des meubles ou autre.

2. Si le sol nest pas

parfaitement horizontal,

visser ou dévisser les

pieds de réglage avant

(voir figure) pour niveler

lappareil; son angle

dinclinaison, mesuré sur

le plan de travail, ne doit

pas dépasser 2°.

Une bonne mise à niveau garantit la stabilité de

lappareil et évite quil y ait des vibrations, du bruit et

des déplacements en cours de fonctionnement. Si la

machine est posée sur de la moquette ou un tapis,

régler les pieds de manière à ce quil y ait

suffisamment despace pour assurer une bonne

ventilation.

Raccordements eau et électricité

Raccordement du tuyau darrivée de leau

1. Monter le joint A sur

lextrémité du tuyau

dalimentation et le visser

à un robinet deau froide

à embout fileté 3/4 gaz

(voir figure).

Faire couler leau jusquà

ce quelle soit limpide et

sans impuretés avant de

raccorder.

2. Raccorder le tuyau

darrivée de leau au

lave-linge en le vissant à

la prise deau prévue,

dans la partie arrière en

haut à droite (voir figure).

3. Attention à ce que le tuyau ne soit pas plié ou

écrasé.

 La pression de leau doit être comprise entre les

valeurs indiquées dans le tableau des Caractéristiques

techniques (voir page ci-contre).

 Si la longueur du tuyau dalimentation ne suffit pas,

sadresser à un magasin spécialisé ou à un technicien

agréé.

 Nutiliser que des tuyaux neufs.

 Utiliser ceux qui sont fournis avec lappareil.

Raccordement du tuyau de vidange

Raccordez le tuyau

d'évacuation, sans le

plier, à un conduit

d'évacuation ou à une

évacuation murale

placés à une distance

du sol comprise entre

65 et 100 cm;

ou bien accrochez-le à

un évier ou à une

baignoire, dans ce cas,

fixez le support en

plastique fourni avec

l'appareil au robinet

(voir figure). L'extrémité

libre du tuyau

d'évacuation ne doit

pas être plongée dans

l'eau.

 L'utilisation de tuyaux de rallonge est absolument

déconseillée, si vous ne pouvez vraiment pas faire

autrement vous devrez utiliser un tuyau de même

diamètre et de longueur maximum de 150 cm.

Branchement électrique

Avant de brancher votre électroménager à la prise

de courant, contrôlez que:

 la prise est bien avec terre et conforme aux

réglementations applicables en la matière;

 la prise électrique est bien apte à supporter la

puissance maximum de l'électroménager figurant

sur la plaquette des caractéristiques (voir page 19);

 la tension d'alimentation est bien comprise entre

les valeurs figurant sur la plaquette des

caractéristiques (voir page 19);

 la prise est bien compatible avec la fiche du lave-

linge. Autrement, remplacez la prise ou la fiche.

Votre électroménager dispose à présent d'une fiche

moulée 13 ampères qui peut être branchée dans

une prise compatible pour utilisation immédiate.

Veuillez lire les instructions suivantes avant d'utiliser

votre électroménager.

ATTENTION - L'ELECTROMENAGER DOIT ETRE

RACCORDE A LA MASSE. LES OPERATIONS

DECRITES CI-APRES DOIVENT ETRE

EFFECTUEES PAR UN ELECTRICIEN QUALIFIE.

Remplacement du fusible:

En cas de remplacement d'un fusible défectueux, utilisez

toujours des fusibles de 13 ampères ASTA conformes au

standard BS1362 et remontez le couvercle du fusible. Si

vous avez perdu le couvercle du fusible, n'utilisez pas la

fiche tant que la pièce manquante n'aura pas été

remplacée.

Couvercles des fusibles:

Si vous remplacez le couvercle du fusible, veillez à ce que

sa couleur soit bien celle qui est indiquée par le code ou

l'indication colorée à la base de la fiche. Pour toute pièce

détachée, adressez-vous directement au centre

d'assistance technique le plus proche de chez vous.

Démontage de la fiche:

Si l'électroménager est équipé d'une fiche

incorporée qui ne peut pas être câblée à nouveau et

s'il faut faire passer le câble à travers des divisions,

des unités, etc. contrôlez que:

la fiche est bien remplacée par une autre câblable à

nouveau de 13 ampères portant la marque BSI

ou bien:

que le câble est bien raccordé directement à la prise

de 13 ampères, contrôlée par un interrupteur (con-

forme BS 5733) accessible sans qu'il faille déplacer

l'électroménager.

Elimination de la fiche:

Avant d'éliminer la fiche, rendez les broches

inutilisables de manière à ce que la fiche ne puisse

pas être branchée accidentellement dans une prise.

Instructions pour le raccordement du câble à une

fiche alternative:

Important: les couleurs des fils du câble de réseau

correspondent à la codification suivante:

Jaune/Vert Terre

Bleu Neutre

Marron Alimenté

Les couleurs des fils du câble pourraient ne pas

correspondre aux indications de couleur qui

identifient les broches de la fiche, procédez comme

suit:

raccordez le fil jaune/vert à la borne repérée par la

lettre E ou

ou de couleur verte ou jaune/vert

raccordez le fil marron à la borne repérée par la

lettre L ou de couleur rouge

raccordez le fil bleu à la borne repérée par la lettre N

ou de couleur noire.

65 - 100 cm

En cas d'utilisation d'une fiche de 13 ampères (BS

1363), installez un fusible de 13 ampères dans la fiche

ou sur l'adaptateur ou sur la carte de distribution.

En cas de doute sur l'alimentation électrique de votre

électroménager, faites appel à un électricien qualifié

avant de le mettre en service.

Raccordement d'une fiche alternative:

les couleurs des fils du câble de réseau

correspondent à la codification suivante:

BLEU NEUTRE (N)

MARRON ALIMENTE (L)

JAUNE/VERT TERRE (E)

Elimination de l'électroménager:

Lors de la mise au rebus de l'électroménager,

débarrassez-le de sa fiche en coupant le câble

d'alimentation le plus près possible de cette dernière

et éliminez comme décrit précédemment.

 Votre lave-linge ne doit pas être installé dehors,

même à l'abri, car il est très dangereux de le laisser

exposé à la pluie et aux orages.

 Après installation du lave-linge, la prise de courant

doit être facilement accessible.

 N'utilisez ni rallonges ni prises multiples.

 Le câble ne doit être ni plié ni écrasé.
