If the Washerdryer is sold, given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it. Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital information relating to the safe installation and operation of the appliance. [. . . ] A short sound alert will be emitted and the set language will flash on the display. Press the buttons next to the “ “ and “V” symbols to change the language. Use the button next to the “OK” symbol to confirm the language, which will be set after 2”. If no buttons are pressed, the language set previously will be displayed after 30”. 7 How to run a wash cycle or a drying cycle GB WARNING: before you use the Washer-dryer for the first time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the 90° cottons cycle without pre-wash. All the indicator lights will illuminate for 1 second and the text AQUALTIS will appear on the display; the indicator light corresponding to the button will then remain lit in a constant manner and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash. Turn the PROGRAMME KNOB left or right, until the required programme has been selected; the name of the programme will appear on the display. A temperature and spin speed is set for each programme; these may be adjusted. Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum load value indicated in the table of wash cycles on the following page. Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant compartments as described in “Description of the machine”. Use the relevant buttons on the control panel: Modify the temperature and/or spin speed. The machine automatically displays the maximum temperature and spin speed values set for the selected cycle, or the most recently-used settings if they are compatible with the selected cycle. The temperature can be decreased by pressing the button, until the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached. The spin speed may be progressively reduced by pressing the button, until it is completely excluded “OFF”. Exception: if the programme is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C. 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 a set time period: between 20 and 180 minutes. B- Based on the desired laundry dryness level: Iron: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards. Cupboard: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a cupboard without being ironed. Extra: suitable for garments which need to be dried completely, such as sponges and bathrobes. If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load, perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. [. . . ] 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. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see “Assistance”), make sure that the problem cannot be not solved easily using the following list. Possible causes / Solutions: • The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or not enough to make contact. [. . . ]
