Warnings and precautions

1.- Warnings and precautions

The washing machine must be connected to an earth.

If this basic safety rule is not respected, the manufacturer shall under no circumstances
accept liability for injuries suffered by persons, or for damage to objects.

In order to avoid fire risk, electric shock, personal injury or other injuries when
using the washing machine, take the following precautions:
This washing machine is supplied with a manual that contains instructions on
operation, maintenance and installation. Read all the instructions before using the
washing machine.
Do not wash articles which have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked or treated
with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other inflammable or explosive substances as
they produce vapours that may ignite or explode.
Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other inflammable or explosive substances
to the wash water since they produce vapours which may ignite orexplode.
Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, nor attempt any type of service unless
it has been recommended in the manuals maintenance instructions..
Do not stand or sit on the machine, or lean on the open loading door.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do NOT use an extension lead or adapter
to connect the washing machine to the mains electricity.
The machine must only be used for what it was designed.
Follow the washing instructions recommended by the manufacturer of the item to
bewashed.
Do not start the washing machine until you have made sure that:

It has been installed according to the installation instructions.

All of the water connections, drainage, electricity and earthing comply with
local regulations and/or other applicable regulations.

Additional functions
Button for selecting additional functions according to programmes.
There are 2 options: anti-crease and intensive wash.
Press the button to display the required option.

between various combinations of one or two
additional functions at the same time, depending
on the chosen programme.

Key: Anti-crease
This stops at the final rinse, leaving the clothing floating in water. When the function is
deactivated, the washer continues the programme, draining and spinning.
This is used when you are not at home, for example, to delay the spin until you have
arrived so that creases are not caused by the clothes being spun and then left in
the drum.
Key: Intensive Wash
This option, specially recommended for very dirty or stained garments, gives better
results by lengthening the wash cycle.

Pressing the delay button during the wash has no

Pressing the Start/Pause button during the wash
puts the washer in the PAUSE state.

Select

Important: If, during the wash cycle, the programme is changed using the selector,
the washer is left in the PAUSE state, and the programme is canceled. To add or
remove an article, press the start/pause button and make sure that the water is not
above the door overflow level, and that the interior temperature is not high. Press the
start/pause button again to re-start the washer from the same phase of the cycle in
which it was stopped.

t e c h n i c a l

Description of operation
Power failure
When the supply returns after a power failure, the washer continues to work as normal,
from the point at which it stopped (its memory lasts a few hours).
The same thing happens if the ON/OFF button is pressed.

Warnings
To reduce the noise level of the spin cycle: use the adjustable feet to level the washer.
Aim to wash clothes of different sizes in the same wash programme, for a better
weight distribution in the drum when spinning.
All the models have a spin cycle safety system, which prevents them spinning if the
distribution of the clothes in the drum is very uneven. This prevents excessive vibration.
If at any time the clothes have not been correctly spun, spread them out more evenly
in the drum, and spin again.

Description of operation
3.1.5.- Spin attempts
If the washing machine detects the unequal balance of clothes in the spin cycle it will
follow this process:
The total number of attempts to start spinning is 20, divided according to these criteria.
In the first 6 attempts, the maximum unbalanced limit allowed is 550 g.
Between the 7th and 18th attempts the maximum unbalanced limit allowed is 800 g
and the final speed is less than the nominal speed, for example a washing machine
of 1,200 rpm will spin at 1,000 rpm.
For the 19th and 20th attempts, the maximum unbalanced limit allowed is 1,500 g,
and the final spin speed will be 650 rpm, except in washing machines with a nominal
speed of 700 rpm, which will spin at 400 rpm.
These attempts to reposition the clothes in the drum will increase the total programme
time by 20 minutes.
The LCD screen will display CO3. This is not considered a fault, it merely warns the
user about the security measure the circuit has detected.
If an imbalance is detected in the rinse phase the number of attempts will not exceed 3.
In 8 kg washers dating from after 01/11/2007, the number of imbalance correction
attempts is reduced by half (9 attempts).
