What should I do before using the washer dryer for the very first time?

Before first use, run the Drum Clean programme without any laundry to remove residual test water from the factory inspection. Select the Drum Clean Û 40°C programme, pour approximately 1 litre of water into dispenser II, and add standard detergent according to manufacturer's instructions for light soiling. Use only half the recommended amount of detergent to prevent frothing, and do not use woollens or mild detergents. (Page 43)

2

What does error code E:32 mean?

Error code E:32 indicates an unbalance problem, meaning the spinning phase has been aborted. This display alternates with 'End' when the programme is finished. To prevent this, ensure laundry is evenly distributed in the drum by mixing large and small items together. (Page 32)

3

How do I open the washer dryer door if there is a power failure?

In the event of a power failure, switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains plug, then drain the detergent solution. After that, pull the emergency release downwards with a tool to release it, which will allow the washer dryer door to be opened. Do not open the door if water can be seen through the glass, as escaping water may cause water damage. (Page 31)

4

What are the maximum load capacities for washing and drying programmes?

The maximum load for the Cottons programme is 8 kg for washing and 5 kg for drying. For Easy-Care, the maximum is 4 kg for washing and 2.5 kg for drying, and for the Wool and Delicate/Silk programmes, the maximum washing load is 2 kg with no drying recommended for wool or delicates. For the standalone Intensive Dry programme, the maximum drying load is 5 kg, and for Gentle Dry it is 2.5 kg. (Page 20–22)

5

How do I clean the drain pump if it becomes blocked?

First, turn off the tap, switch off the appliance, and pull out the mains plug. Open and remove the service flap, take the drain hose out of its retainer, remove the sealing cap, and pour the water into a suitable container. Then carefully unscrew the pump cover, clean the interior, pump-cover thread, and pump housing, ensuring the impeller can rotate freely, before reassembling and replacing the service flap. (Page 29)

6

What textiles must NOT be dried in the washer dryer?

Textiles labelled with the 'Do not dry' care symbol must not be dried in the washer dryer. Additionally, wool or textiles containing wool, delicates such as silk and synthetic curtains, textiles containing foam rubber or similar materials, and textiles treated with flammable liquids such as stain remover or petroleum ether must never be dried in the appliance due to the risk of explosion.

Run the Drum Clean Ž (cold) programme without laundry and detergent to remove fluff which have accumulated inside the drum during the previous dry- ing cycle. Water inlet noise during the drying phase. The washer dryer uses water condensation technology, water is constantly needed to dry the laundry. Therefore the tap must be on all the time, till the end of drying phase. Drying duration extended. ■ Run the Drum Clean Ž (cold) programme to remove fluff which has col- lected in the washer drum during the drying phase. Drying programme does not start. ■ Drying programme not selected? Overview of programmes ~ Page 20 ■ Door not closed properly? The drying result is not satisfactory (laundry is not dry enough). ■ Excessively high ambient temperature (above 30 °C) or inadequate venti- lation in the room in which the washer dryer is situated. ■ The laundry has not been spun well enough before drying. Always set the highest selectable spin speed for the particular washing programme. ■ Washer dryer overloaded: Observe the recommendations for the maxi- mum load in the programme table and on the load display. Do not overload the washer dryer, as the maximum load for the drying phase is less than the maximum load for the wash cycle. Unload the washer dryer after wash- ing with the maximum load and divide the laundry into two drying cycles. ■ The power supply voltage is too low (below 200 V) – provide a suitable power supply. ■ The water pressure is low. According to water condensing principle, low water pressure will cause evaporated steam not condensed totally. ■ The tap is closed during drying. Due to the use of the water condensation technology for drying, please keep the connected water tap open during the drying process, otherwise proper drying cannot be guaranteed. ■ Thick multilayered textiles or textiles with thick fillings dry easily on the sur- face, but not inside. This equalisation process may take longer. For these types of textiles, select drying mode · (Extra dry), or select additional time drying via Intensive Dry Š or Gentle Dry ‰ programmes. If a fault cannot be rectified (switching the machine on and off) or a repair is required: ■ Set the programme selector to $ Off and pull out the mains plug. ■ Turn off the tap and call customer service. ~ Page 35 Faults Cause/Remedy

    en Positioning and connecting 40 Water inlet :Warning Danger of death! There is a risk of electric shock if you touch live components. Do not immerse the Aqua-Stop safety valve in water (it contains an electric valve). Notes ■ Only operate the washer dryer using cold mains water. ■ Do not connect the machine to the mixer tap of an unpressurised hot- water boiler. ■ Do not use a used supply hose. Only use the supply hose supplied or one that was purchased from an authorised specialist retailer. ■ Do not kink or squash the water supply hose. ■ Do not alter (shorten, cut through) the water supply hose (otherwise its strength is no longer guaranteed). ■ Only tighten the screw connections by hand. If the screw connections are tightened too much with a tool (pliers), the thread may become damaged. Optimum water pressure in the supply network At least 100 kPa (1 bar) Maximum 1000 kPa (10 bar) When the tap is open, the water flow rate is at least 8 l/min. If the water pressure is higher than this, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed. Connection Connect the water supply hose to the tap (26.4 mm = ¾") and to the appliance (not necessary for Aqua-Stop models as this is permanently installed): ■ Model: Standard ■ Model: Aqua-Secure ■ Model: Aqua-Stop Note: Turn on the tap carefully, checking the leak tightness of the connection points. The screw connection is under mains water pressure.

    Positioning and connecting en 41 Water outlet :Warning Risk of scalding! When you are washing at high temperatures, there is a risk of scalding if you come into contact with hot water (e.g. when draining hot water into a washbasin). Do not reach into the hot water. Caution! Water damage If the drain hose slips out of the washbasin or the connection point during draining due to high water pressure, any escaping water may cause water damage. Secure the drain hose so that it cannot slip out. Caution! Damage to the appliance/fabrics If the end of the drain hose is immersed in the drained water, water may be sucked back into the appliance and may damage the appliance/fabrics. Make sure that: ■ The plug does not block drainage from the washbasin. ■ The end of the drain hose is not immersed in the drained water. ■ The water drains away quickly enough. Note: Do not kink the water drain hose or put strain on it lengthways. Connection ■ Drainage into a washbasin ■ Drainage into a siphon The connection point must be secured using a hose clamp with a diameter of 24 - 40 mm (available from specialist dealers). ■ Drainage into a plastic pipe with rubber bushing or into a drainage pit

  • direction with a wrench.
  • Check the alignment of the washer
  • dryer with a spirit level and, if required, correct. Adjust the height by rotating the appliance foot. Note: All four appliance feet must be firmly on the floor. The washer dryer must not wobble!
  • Tighten the lock nut against the
  • housing. Grip the foot and do not adjust the height. Notes ■ The lock nuts on all four appliance feet must be screwed tightly against the housing! ■ Any loud noises, intense vibrations or “wandering” may be due to incorrect alignment! Electrical connection Electrical safety :Warning Risk of electric shock! Risk of death if live parts are touched. ■ When disconnecting the main plug, always pull the plug itself and not the cable, otherwise the cable could be damaged. ■ Never touch or hold the mains plug with wet hands. ■ Never pull out the mains plug during operation. ■ Only connect the washer dryer to an alternating current using a correctly installed earthed socket. ■ The mains voltage must be the same as the voltage specifications on the washer dryer (appliance rating plate). ■ The connected load and the required fuse are also indicated on the appliance rating plate. Ensure that: ■ The mains plug and socket match. ■ The cable cross-section is adequate. ■ The earthing system has been installed correctly. ■ A damaged power cord is only replaced by an electrician. A replacement mains cable can be obtained from customer service. ■ You do not use multiple plugs/ couplings or extension cables. ■ If a residual-current-operated circuit breaker is used, you use only a type which features this symbol: z. Only this symbol guarantees compliance with the currently valid regulations. ■ The mains plug is always accessible. ■ The power cord is not kinked, crushed, altered or severed and has not come into contact with any heat sources.
