Installation
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for
future reference. Should the appliance be sold,
transferred or moved, make sure the instruction
manual accompanies the washing machine to
inform the new owner as to its operation and
features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain
vital information on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
1. Unpack the washing machine.
2. Check whether the washing machine has been
damaged during transport. If this is the case, do
not install it and contact your retailer.
3. Remove the four pro-
tective screws and the
rubber washer with the
respective spacer, si-
tuated on the rear of the
appliance (see figure).
4. Seal the gaps using the
plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you
will need them again if
the washing machine
needs to be moved to
another location.
Warning: should the
screws be re-used,
make sure you fasten
the shorter ones at the top.
! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.
Levelling
1. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy
floor, without resting it up against walls, furniture
cabinets or other.
2. If the floor is not per-
fectly level, compensate
for any unevenness by
tightening or loosening
the adjustable front feet
(see figure); the angle
of inclination, measu-
red according to the
worktop, must not ex-
ceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance
correctly will provide it with stability and avoid any
vibrations, noise and shifting during operation.
If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust
the feet in such a way as to allow enough room
for ventilation beneath the washing machine.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply
pipe by screwing it to
a cold water tab using
a ¾ gas threaded con-
nection (see figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until
it is perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other
end of the water inlet
hose to the washing
machine,
screwing it onto the ap-
pliance’s cold water in-
let, situated on the top
right-hand side on the
rear of the appliance
(see figure).
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the
hose.
! The water pressure at the tap must be within
the values indicated in the Technical details
table (on the next page).
! If the water inlet hose is not long enough,
contact a specialist store or an authorised
serviceman.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.

gnetic Compatibility)
- 2006/95/CE (Low Voltage)
- 2002/96/CE
Connecting the drain hose
Connect the drain
hose, without bending
it, to a drainage duct
or a wall drain located
at a height between
65 and 100 cm from
the floor;
alternatively, rest it on
the side of a washba-
sin or bathtub, faste-
ning the duct sup-
plied to the tap (see
figure). The free end
of the hose should
not be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions;
if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must
have the same diameter as the original hose and
must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the electricity
socket, make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and complies with all
applicable laws;
• the socket is able to withstand the maximum
power load of the appliance as indicated in the
Technical data table (see opposite);
• the power supply voltage falls within the va-
lues indicated in the Technical data table (see
opposite);
• the socket is compatible with the plug of the
washing machine. If this is not the case, repla-
ce the socket or the plug.
! The washing machine must not be installed
outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely
dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to
rain, storms and other weather conditions.
! When the washing machine has been installed,
the electricity socket must be within easy reach.
! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
! The cable should not be bent or compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be replaced
by authorised technicians.
Warning! The company shall not be held respon-
sible in the event that these regulations are not
respected.
The first wash cycle
Once the appliance has been installed, and
before you use it for the first time, run a wash
cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the
wash cycle .

GB
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover pa-
nel on the lower front
part of the washing
machine (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwi-
se (see figure): a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly nor-
mal;
3. clean the inside tho-
roughly;
4. screw the lid back
on;
5. reposition the panel,
making sure the hooks
are securely in place
before you push it onto
the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there
are any cracks, it should be replaced immedia-
tely: during the wash cycles, water pressure is
very strong and a cracked hose could easily
split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in-
side the washing machine and help to prevent
leaks.
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it
and during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use
solvents or abrasives.
Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump which does not require any maintenance.
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)
may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the
pump, situated in its bottom part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and
unplug the appliance.
How to clean the detergent dispenser
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Cleaning:
Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3)
using an old toothbrush and, once the pair of
siphons inserted in the top of compartments
1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check
whether the same are not clogged and then
rinse them.
Reassembly:
Do not forget to rein-
sert the pair of siphons
into the special housings
and then to replace the
dispenser into its seat,
clicking it into place (fig.
4, 2 and 1).

Precautions and tips
! This washing machine was designed and constructed in
accordance with international safety regulations. The fol-
lowing information is provided for safety reasons and must
therefore be read carefully.
General safety
• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.
• This appliance can be used by children aged
from 8 years and above and persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
or lack of experience and knowledge if they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way
and understand the hazards involved. Children
shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning
and user maintenance shall not be made by
children without supervision.
• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or
damp hands or feet.
• Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging
the appliance from the electricity socket. Hold the plug and
pull.
• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach extremely
high temperatures.
• Never force the porthole door. This could damage the safety
lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening.
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circum-
stances access the internal mechanisms in an attempt to
repair it yourself.
• Always keep children well away from the appliance while
it is operating.
• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group of two
or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never
try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy.
• Before loading laundry into the washing machine, make
sure the drum is empty.
Disposal
• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regu-
lations so that the packaging may be re-used.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment, requires that
old household electrical appliances must not be
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste
stream. Old appliances must be collected
separately in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce
the impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that when
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the envi-
ronment
Saving on detergent, water, energy and time
• To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine
should be used with a full load. A full load instead
of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on
energy.
• The pre-wash cycle is only necessary on
extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save on
detergent, time, water and between 5 and 15%
energy.
• Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving
them to soak before washing will cut down the
need to wash them at high temperatures. A
programme at 60°C instead of 90°C or one at
40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on
energy.
• Use the correct quantity of detergent depending
on the water hardness, how soiled the garments
are and the amount of laundry you have, to avoid
wastage and to protect the environment: despite
being biodegradable, detergents do contain
ingredients that alter the natural balance of the
environment. In addition, avoid using fabric
softener as much as possible.
• If you use your washing machine from late in the
afternoon until the early hours of the morning, you
will help reduce the electricity board’s peak load.
The “Delay Timer” option helps to organise your
wash cycles accordingly.
• If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer,
select a high spin speed. Having the least water
possible in your laundry will save you time and
energy in the drying process.

Table of wash cycles
Wash cycles
Cotton Standard 20° (wash cycle 4). Ideal for heavily soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying
speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Mix 30’ (wash cycle 6) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and the-
refore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (6 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together
(except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.
Mix 15’(wash cycle 7) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and the-
refore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (7 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together
(except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 8). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach. Pour
the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled “Detergent dispenser
drawer”).
Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 9). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The
wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in the
drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin cycle and
drain the water automatically after 8 hours.
Baby cycle (wash cycle 10). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring
that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The cycle
has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of special
disinfecting additives added to the detergent.
At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle
press the START/PAUSE button.
The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary accor-
ding to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 60°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be
washed at 60°C . The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be
washed at 40°C . The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
For all Test Institutes:
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle 5 with a temperature of 40°C.

may be between 1 hour and 24 hours).
To disable the function press the button until the text is displayed.
N.B. Once you have pressed the START/PAUSE button, the delay time may only be decreased if you wish to modify it.
! This option is enabled with all programmes.
Super Wash
Because a greater quantity of water is used in the initial phase of the cycle, and because of the increased cycle duration, this
function offers a high-performance wash.
! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, , .
Extra rinse
By selecting this function, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly
useful for sensitive skin.
! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 6, 7, , .
Easy iron
By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of
the cycle the washing machine will perform slow rotations of the drum.
For the 12 wash cycle, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking, the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indi-
cator lights will flash (orange) and the RINSE phase will remain lit in a fixed manner. To drain the water so that the laundry may
be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of
detergent: adding too much detergent won’t necessarily
make for a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause
build up on the interior of your appliance and even pollute
the environment.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-
washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
Open up the detergent
dispenser and pour in the
detergent and fabric softe-
ner, as follows.
compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
It is recommended that you place liquid detergent directly
into the compartment using the appropriate dosing cup.
compartment 3: Additives (softener, etc.)
When pouring the softener in compartment 3, avoid exce-
eding the “max” level indicated.
The softener is added automatically into the machine
during the last wash. At the end of the wash programme,
some water will be left in compartment 3. This is used for
the inlet of denser fabric softeners into the machine, i.e.
to dilute the more concentrated softeners. Should more
than a normal amount of water remain in compartment 3,
this means the emptying device is blocked. For cleaning
instructions, see “Care and maintenance”.
compartment 4: Bleach
Bleach cycle
Bleaching may be performed in conjunction with wash
cycle 8.
Pour the bleach into compartment 4; pour the detergent
and softener into the corresponding compartments, then
select one of the abovementioned wash cycles.
This option is recommended only for very soiled cotton
garments.
Preparing the laundry
• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the
weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of wash
cycles”.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Garments requiring special care
Shirts: use special wash cycle 11 to wash shirts in va-
rious fabrics and colours.
It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments and
minimises the formation of creases.
Silk: use special wash cycle 12 to wash all silk garments.
We recommend the use of special detergent which has
been designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or
mesh bag. Use wash cycle 12.
Wool: The wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint-Ariston machine
has been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company
for washing wool garments labelled as hand washable
provided that the garments are washed according to the
instructions on the garment label and those issued by the
manufacturer of this washing machine. Hotpoint-Ariston
is the first washing machine brand to be approved by The
Woolmark Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its wa-
shing performance and consumption of energy and water.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates
continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the
washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is
not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin
speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washing ma-
chine 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.

Troubleshooting
Your washing machine could fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see “Assistance”), make sure
that the problem cannot be solved easily using the following list.
Problem:
The washing machine does not
switch on.
The wash cycle does not start.
The washing machine does not
take in water (the indicator light for
the first wash cycle stage flashes
rapidly).
The washing machine continuously
takes in and drains water.
The washing machine does not
drain or spin.
The washing machine vibrates a lot
during the spin cycle.
The washing machine leaks.
The START/PAUSE indicator light
(orange) and the function indicator
lights flash rapidly.
There is too much foam.
Possible causes / Solutions:
• The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact.
• There is no power in the house.
• The appliance Lid is not shut properly.
• The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.
• The water tap has not been opened.
• A delayed start has been set (see “Personalisation”).
• The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.
• The hose is bent.
• The water tap has not been opened.
• There is no water supply in the house.
• The pressure is too low.
• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.
• The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor
(see “Installation”).
• The free end of the hose is under water (see “Installation”).
• The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.
If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch
the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of
the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage,
causing the washing machine to fill with water and drain continuously. Special
anti-draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.
• The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require the drain
phase to be started manually.
• The EASY IRON function has been activated: To complete the wash cycle,
press the START/PAUSE button (“Personalisation”).
• The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”).
• The drainage duct is clogged.
• The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see “Installation”).
• The washing machine is not level (see “Installation”).
• The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see “Installation”).
• The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see “Installation”).
• The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see
“Care and maintenance”).
• The drain hose is not fixed properly (see “Installation”).
• Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and
then switch it back on again.
If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.
• The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text
“for washing machines” or “hand and machine wash”, or the like).
• Too much detergent was used.
