Cautions
• Be sure to remove transport brackets prior first use of the appliance. Attempted operation of the
blocked machine may result in irreparable damage which is not covered by the manufacturer’s
warranty!
• When connecting your washing machine to water supply, be sure to use brand new water inlet
hose and appropriate sealing gaskets (attached).
• Do not locate the machine in a room with temperature below 0°C. Parts of the machine may be
damaged if frozen.
• Install the washing machine in a perfectly horizontal position, on solid flat concrete floor.
• Follow the instructions for correct installation and water and mains connections.
• Never immerse the end of the drain hose into the draining water.
• Prior starting the washing cycle lock the door by pressing them at the designed spot.
• Door may not be open during the washing cycle.
• We recommend removing any impurities from the washing machine drum before washing your
first batch of laundry. To do this, run the Cotton 95°C program without any laundry and with a
small amount of powder detergent. Before running the program, make sure the washing machine
drum is really empty.
• Use only detergents and softeners for machine wash. Manufacturer may not assume
responsibility for any damage and eventual discoloring of gaskets and plastic components as a
consequence of incorrect use of bleach and/or coloring agents.
• For removal of lime residues use such agents with added anti-corrosion agents. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. Finish the lime removal by multiple rinsing to remove completely
eventual acid residues.
• Never use detergents containing solvents, since there is a danger of creating toxic gasses which
may damage the machine and result in ignition or explosion.
• Upon completion of washing operation close the water faucet.
• Before any transport block the machine by inserting at least one transport blocking rod. Prior this
operation disconnect the appliance from the mains power!
• Rating plate with basic information is located above the opening of the machine.
• The warranty shall not apply to consumables (bulbs), minor discoloration or deviations of color,
increased noise level as a consequence of appliance age, which does not affect appliance
functionality, and aesthetical deficiencies which do not affect appliance functionality or safety.

Wool Spinning
9
- Open the door of the machine.
Door is opened by pulling the handle (lever) on the right hand
side of the door towards you.
- Sort the laundry by the type of fabrics.
Do the buttons and zippers, tie the strings and pull out
the pockets.
Very delicate laundry should be put in a special
protective sack.
It is suggested to load the drum with items of different
sizes.
Pay attention to the labels on the clothes, indicating
the recommending washing mode (see table of
textile treatment symbols on the last page of these
instructions).
Washing machine Program is selected by turning the program selector (A) from the
operation “0” position to the desired washing program. The ON/OFF signal
LED starts flashing. The program selector (A) may be turned in
both directions, and the appropriate program selected according
to the type of laundry washed and the required washing
temperature (see Program Chart for help). You may select basic
or partial programs.
Selected program may be changed at random prior pushing the
START button (C).
Cotton: whites/colored
Normally stained cotton and flax bed linen and underwear, table
cloth, bathroom towels, top garments, etc.
For less stained laundry of this type, use quick program . It
saves energy and washing time.
For heavily stained permanent press use the program with the
pre-wash .
For smaller loads (non-delicate cotton, linen, synthetic, and
mixed fabric) and smaller quantities of soiled laundry (laundry
231711

the use of the quick program. This way, you will save both
energy and time.
Synthetics
Normally stained shirts, blouses and other polyester and
polyamide garments, or a mixture of these fabrics with cotton.
For less stained laundry of this type, use short program. It saves
energy and washing time.
Delicate
This is a program for delicate fabrics (dresses, skirts, blouses)
and curtains.
Wool

Tips for washing and energy saving
• Before washing sort out the laundry according to the type, degree of dirtiness and color fastness.
• Prior selecting the washing program consult the sewn tab with information on a particular piece
of laundry (see Maintenance chart on the last page).
• Wash separately the new colored textile products for the first time.
• Wash heavily soiled laundry in small quantities and add more detergent.
• Treat stubborn stains with special stain remover, it will save energy.
• With lightly stained laundry select washing program without pre-wash, use short program and
select lower washing temperature. This way you may save up to 50% of energy.
• Avoid washing too little quantities of laundry because of energy saving and for better
performances of the appliance.
• The largest allowed quantity of dry laundry is indicated in the Program chart.
• Before washing empty the pockets, close zip fasteners, and remove any metal fasteners or
badges that might clog the drain or damage the laundry or drum interior.
• Loosen the stacked laundry prior inserting it into the drum.
• Use only detergents for machine wash.
• Add powder or liquid detergents according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• If water hardness level exceeds 14°dH degrees, the use of water conditioner is required. Any
damage to the heater due to failure to use a water conditioning agent shall not be covered by
this warranty.
• Chlorine-based whitening agents are not recommended, as it can damage the heater.
15
• Wash it under running water using a brush, and dry it. Remove
any leftover dried detergent from the bottom of the casing.
• After each wash wipe the door rubber gasket. This will prolong
its useful life.
16
• Before cleaning, drain any water from the machine via drain
pipe (certain models only).
Failures
The washing machine automatically monitors the execution of particular functions during the
operation, and reports any detected failures. In such cases both signal LED’s start flashing in
certain sequence. Flashing sequence changes in accordance with the nature of the detected
failure.
In some cases you may attempt removing certain failures yourself, so count the number of flashes,
repeating after certain pauses.
The machine signals failures immediately after detecting them and stops the program, except for
heater failure, where the machine completes the washing program without heating water.
Failures:
2 - Two flashes: door is not correctly closed
3 - Three flashes: inappropriate water intake
7 - Seven flashes: inappropriate water outlet.
In these cases, you will be able to remedy the failure by yourself (See Troubleshooting table).
17
6 - Six flashes: Heater failure
In these cases, turn off the machine, then turn it back on and repeat the program. If the failure
reoccurs, contact your nearest authorized service center. The LEDs will continue to flash until the
machine is turned off.
Interferences from the ambient (for example electrical wiring) could induce signalization of different
faults. In such cases:
- switch the appliance off, and wait for a few seconds;
- switch the appliance back on and repeat the washing program.
If the fault repeats, call authorized service shop.
Warranty shall not apply in case of failures due to interferences from the environment (lightning
stroke, power supply circuit faults, natural disasters).
