Drying cycle

The correct way to dry:

-Open door.

-Fill with up to 4 kg - in case of large items (e.g. sheets) or very absorbent items (e.g. towels or jeans), it is a good idea to reduce the load.

-Close door.

- Turn programme dial to

cotton.

-If you would like your fabrics cupboard dry, turn the “drying programme selector” knob until

the position.

-If you would like your fabrics iron dry, turn the “drying programme selector” knob, until

the position.

-If you wish to select a timed drying cycle, turn the “drying programme selector” knob until the Timed position 120 or 60 or 30.

Warning: do not touch door for any reason.

•Make sure water inlet valve is open.

•Make sure water drain is correctly positioned.

Warning:

do not dry woollen garments or articles with special padding, (e.g. quilts, quilted anoraks, etc.).

Delicate fabrics if garments are drip/dry, load less items ao as to prevent creasing.

Press the START button.

-The timed indicators will display the drying time remaining, until the stop indicator lights up.

-The drying phase will begin with the programme dial fixed on the symbol until the end of drying.

When the programme is finished

At the end of the programme the indicator light “STOP” will go on.

Wait for the door lock to be released (about 2 minutes after the programme has finished). The "Door Security" indicator light will go out.

Turn the “drying programme selector” knob on the position.

Switch off the machine by turning the programme selector on the “OFF” position. Open the door and remove the laundry. Turn off the tap.

Cleaning and routine maintenance

Do not use alcohol-based scourers and / or thinners on the outside of your washing machine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance: - Cleaning the drawer compartments.

- Cleaning the door glass.

Cleaning the drawer compartments

Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the compartments for bleaching detergents and additives occasionally.

A) To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but without forcing them.

B)Clean everything in the compartment under running water.

C)Put everything back in its proper place.

Cleaning the door glass

Regularly clean the door glass with a damp cloth. A build up of soiling and

residues from the water may result in water leaking from the door.

Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the surface.

Transporting the appliance or long periods when appliance is not in use

If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for long periods in unheated places, all remaining water must be completely removed from the hoses.

Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and point it downwards into a basin until all the water has emptied out.

When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order.
