Cautions and advice In order to get maximum satisfaction and performance from your washing machine, please ensure you follow the instructions given below:

9 Select the clothes load correctly and choose the appropriate programme.

9 Before opening the door, check that there is no water in the machine and the pilot light is off.

9 Put the washing products in the right proportion and in the right compartment.

9 Small garments, such as socks, belts, etc. are best put inside a bag to avoid their being lost.

9 Before putting clothes into the washing machine, make sure that there is nothing in the pockets (coins, buttons, clips, etc.) and that the zips are undone.

9 If you machine has a filter, you should check regularly that it is clean & not blocked. Be especially wary of coins, brassiere wire & fluff/hair.

9 The interior of the washing machine should be handled by specialists only. NEVER attempt to repair or modify it yourself.

9 After each wash, leave the door ajar to prevent the rubber seal from becoming misshapen or mouldy.

9 When the clothes to be washed are heavily soiled or splattered with mud, it is advisable to run a programme with pre-wash.

9 Always put the machine on fully loaded. This will conserve energy.

9 Do NOT use the dryer function if the clothes have been treated with any non-aqueous solution.

9 Do NOT use the dryer function for items containing any kind of spongy rubber or similar elastomer materials.

9 The dryer must be installed in a well-ventilated place, away from the influence of gases from other appliances and from defective installations.

9 The lower ventilation, between the floor and the base of the machine must not be obstructed (by carpet, cloths, etc.).

9 When the machine has just been installed, or after a long time without it being used, it is advisable to run a washing programme with the machine empty, to eliminate any rusty water in the tubes.

8

Using your BWD12

NOTE: (*VERY IMPORTANT*) You must ensure that the transportation bolts have been removed before you attempt to use your Washing Machine, OTHERWISE you will damage or destroy your appliance. See page 32 for instructions.

Only once you are sure this has been done can you do the following:

1) Plug in your machine 2) Turn on the water supply

Note on using your Washing Machine for the first time:

There may be water left inside your machine after factory tests and trials.

The first time you run a wash cycle, you should not put laundry in your machine as it may need to drain water.

Pour half a measuring cup of normal or all purpose detergent into compartment 2 ( ) in your detergent dispenser and select wash programme 2 (without prewash) for 90C.

Start the programme. Wait until the programme finishes.

*FOR NORMAL USE, SEE NEXT PAGE

9

Before Loading your Washing Machine

NOTE: Before putting the clothes into the machine:

o Separate the clothes into 3 lots (cotton, synthetics and wool).

9 Within each group, separate the coloureds from the whites. *NOTE see next page for tips.

9 Once the clothes have been separated, you can put them into the drum of the washing machine, separately and according to colour and group, loose, piece by piece. Do not exceed the maximum weight of clothes as given below:

Cotton Maximum: 4.5 kg

HOW TO OPEN THE

DOOR

Pressing the hidden lever (1) with the index and middle fingers, pull outwards.

o Load your clothes inside the drum one item at a time and spread them about well.

o Shut the door of your machine, being careful

that no pieces of clothing are jammed between the door and the gasket seal. Make sure the door is closed tightly otherwise it wont work.

10

Tips for loading your laundry:

: Never wash your white and coloured clothes together.

Since your

new coloured clothes may shed dye on the first wash, wash them separately.

Be careful that no metal pieces are in the pockets of your clothes. There is the chance of rust residues coming off and causing stains.

Zip-up and button your clothes.

Remove the plastic or metal hooks of curtains or place them inside a washing bag and tie.

Pull textiles like trousers, knitted fabric, T-shirts and sweatshirts inside out.

Wash small clothes like socks and handkerchiefs in a washing bag.

(PLEASE SEE THE CHART BELOW TO UNDERSTAND YOUR WASHING LABELS)

WASHING LABELS & THEIR MEANINGS

11

Filling your Washing Machines Dispenser Drawer with Detergent

The dispenser drawer consists of three compartments:

1) Pre-wash / Bio-wash Compartment

This compartment should be used only when programmes involving pre-wash or bio-wash have been selected. The amount of power used will depend on the fabric type to be washed. We recommend following the detergent manufacturers directions.

2) Main wash Compartment

This compartment is used to store detergent that is going to be used in the main washing cycle of any complete washing programme.

3) Fabric Conditioner Compartment

This compartment is used for fabric softeners. At the end of the washing programme, water will automatically be siphoned out, leaving the compartment ready for the next wash. NOTE: THERE IS A SIDE COMPARTMENT ON THE RIGHT (CL) THAT IS FOR BLEACH.

IMPORTANT! The detergent dispenser drawer and housing must be cleaned periodically to ensure that detergent and fabric softener do not build up and reduce the appliances efficiency. To remove the drawer, pull it forward to its fullest extent, lifting the front edge at the same time, then give a firm tug. The dispenser drawer should now be rinsed, dried and replaced.

Dispenser Drawer

12

HOW MUCH DETERGENT SHOULD I USE?

NOTE: You will need more detergent for washing cycles containing dirtier clothes.

o For very dirty clothes, select a programme with pre-washing, fill compartment 1 with of the amount of the detergent you are putting in compartment 2.

o For clothes that are only slightly dirty, do not pre-wash and put only a small amount of detergent into compartment 2 in your washing machines dispenser drawer.

CAUTION: Only use detergents for automatic washing machines. The amount needed for different washing loads and types will be written on the packaging of your detergent.

NOTE: The harder the water in your area, the more detergent you will need to use.

SOFTENERS 9 Fill the softener compartment in your detergent drawer with softener. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, the softener will diffuse in the washing water through the siphon. Dilute high density softeners first.

FLUID DETERGENTS 9 You can use fluid detergents in all programs without pre-washing. For this, move the fluid detergent level plate in the second compartment of the detergent drawer and pour in the amount of fluid detergent according to the levels on this plate.

13

Tips on washing your clothes.

Dirtiness Sort the clothes according to dirtiness. Give special treatment to those which are very dirty or have got difficult stains. Treat very dirty areas like collars and cuffs before washing. Wash clothes that are only slightly dirty in short programmes. In this way, you will save energy as well as get better results. Wash averagely dirty clothes in a normal wash programme.

Wash very dirty clothes in a

Long Programme with a Prewash.

Sensitivity Certain clothes, either because of their fabric or the way they are made, may be sensitive to action of your machine. When washing them, it is best to use

DELICATE PROGRAMMES.

You can wash woollen garments( ) in the SPECIAL

WOOL PROGRAMME. Make sure, first of all, that your

woollens are washable.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Running your Washing Machine

IMPORTANT The temperature used in any washing programme you select will be determined by the setting you turn your temperature dial to, regardless of the programme selected.

Programme Selection and Features. Select the programme thats right for the clothes you want to wash according to the Table on pages 19-20.

14

THE PROGRAMME KNOB

With the programme knob, you can select the programme youd like to wash your clothes with. You can adjust the programme selection process by turning the programme knob clockwise. NEVER TURN IT ANTICLOCKWISE. You must be careful that the marker on the programme Knob points exactly to the programme you want to select.

15

KEY to Programmes

o 1 & 6 PREWASH THE PREWASH SHOULD BE SELECTED WHEN YOU WANT TO WASH HEAVILY SOILED ITEMS.

o The Prewash cycle (1) can be selected when using Programme 1 ( ) on the dial. NOTE: This is for white cotton and linen articles that do not have a special finish.

o The Prewash cycle (6) can be selected when using programme 6 ( ) on the dial. Use this setting for white nylon polyester cotton mixtures.

o Rinse and Spin (3 & 8). The rinse and spin programme can be selected for articles that have been hand washed. The rinse and spin programme (3 on the dial) is for normal fabrics (1200 rpm). The rinse and spin 8 is for delicate fabrics (500 rpm).

o To utilise this function, simply turn the knob to either 3 or 8 and press in the ON/OFF button.

o LONG SPIN (5) The long spin can be selected by turning the knob to position 5 on the dial. This should be used only for normal fabric at 1200rpm, but note: If you have pressed the spin speed button for 500rpm, the drum will only revolve at 500rpm.

o SHORT SPIN (12) The slower spin speed (500 rpm) can be selected by turning the knob to position 12 and must be used for delicate items and woollens. Note: Even if you have pressed the spin speed button for 1200rpm, the short spin will only turn the drum at 500rpm.

Never use a fast spin programme on wool!

16

THE WASHING TEMPERATURE KNOB

Next, use the Temperature Selector to get the temperature you would like to use in your programme. Turn the knob clockwise (NEVER ANTICLOCKWISE). You can select a temperature between 30 and 95C. Please refer to the label chart on page 10 to see what is best for the clothes in your wash load.

* NOTE: If you turn the Program Knob to the STOP position while your machine is running, you will end the washing cycle prematurely.

Starting a Washing Programme

Once you have selected the programme and temperatures you need for your wash, press this button to start your washing machine.

Note: The button will be depressed on the console. The ON light will come on . The door safety mechanism will engage at this

time.

WARNING DO NOT INSERT ANY KIND OF PLASTIC CONTAINER FOR DETERGENTS IN THE DRUM. THE DRYER COULD MELT THIS AND CAUSE DAMAGE!

17

Interrupting a Programme

You can interrupt a programme at any time by pressing the ON/OFF button. Simply do this and wait two minutes if you have to add or remove garments. Caution: Be careful that the water level inside the drum is not too high and that the temperature is not very hot. To resume, once you have re-closed the door, simply press the ON/OFF button once again. The programme will pick up where it had left off.

Additional Functions Buttons

By pressing these buttons, you can include a series of additional functions and features in the washing programmes you have selected. These functions will allow you to adjust your washing programme to your particular needs. To activate a function, simply press the button showing the corresponding symbol to the type of wash you want.

500/1200 Spin Speed Selector : Push in for 1200 rpm. Push in again (so button pops out) for 500 rpm.

18

HALF LOAD. Use this feature when you only have a half load (i.e., your laundry takes up no more room than half the space of the drum). This feature uses less water, thereby saving water and electricity. SPIN DELAY Pressing this button will stop the wash cycle after the rinse cycle but before the spin cycle begins. This option is good for drip dry, crease resistant and easy care items of laundry. ON/OFF BUTTON When this button is pushed in, your washer dryer is ON. When it is sticking out, it means the power to the appliance is OFF.

MAINS ON/OFF LAMP When the machine is switched on, the lamp is illuminated.

At the end of a Wash Programme

NOTE : YOU CAN ONLY SET YOUR APPLIANCE TO WASH AND DRY A WASHLOAD BEFORE A WASHING CYCLE IF YOU HAVE SET A HALF LOAD PROGRAMME AND ARE WASHING A HALF LOAD OF LAUNDRY. YOU CANNOT DEFEAT THIS RESTRICTION BY PLACING A FULL LOAD AND SELECTING THE HALF LOAD BUTTON.

Provided the programme completes without interruptions, you can open the loading door 2 minutes after it has completed. Take out your clothes. If you have just washed a full load, take out half of the laundry in the drum if you intend to use a drying cycle, being mindful of the fabric type/s you are about to dry.

CONTINUOUS WASH-DRY CYCLE This feature of your appliance allows a drying cycle to follow on from a washing cycle without your having to go anywhere near your washer-dryer!

NOTE: You will need to set your washer-dryer to perform this function if you do not want it to wash and stop and then have to dry separately.

Set your washing programme as you would normally, but REMEMBER THAT YOU MUST SELECT THE HALF-LOAD FEATURE.

Set your drying timer as you would normally do for a drying programme.

Bear the following in mind when setting this function

Set the drying time using the timer knob, remembering that

several short spells are better than a long pre-programmed one.

22

Select the washing programme, remembering that your appliance will not perform a drying cycle if the wool programme has been selected.

To start the machine, press the ON/OFF button.

At the end of the wash and dry programme, the timer knob will stop at position 0.

Press the ON/OFF button and disconnect from the power supply.

Remove your dried wash load.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS: Do not dry clothes that contain plastic (including acrylic), foam or rubber or similar materials, or those that have not been cleaned in a water solution. DO NOT USE A PLASTIC DETERGENT DISPENSER ORB IN THE DRUM!

YOUR DRYER

The drying section of the washer/dryer operates like any other by blowing heated air onto wet clothes. This air is then extracted from the machine.

In your washer/dryer, the moisture-laden air is blown over cold water which causes the moisture to condense. It is then pumped out of the machine. Therefore, it is important that the machine is turned on and the drain hose is correctly located during the drying cycle.

IMPORTANT: The appliance can be used just as a tumble dryer but remember that the cold water tap must be turned on and the drain pipe must be in position.

23

TO USE THE DRYER: 1) Place or leave a maximum of 2kgs of clothes in the drum of

your appliance.

2) Select the required heat level either on FULL HEAT for normal fabrics or HALF HEAT for delicates.

3) Turn the dryer timer to the required time. Note the knob can be set up to a maximum of 140 minutes but we suggest that you select a lower time of approximately 30/40 minutes firstly. You can check if the laundry is dry and, if not, add more minutes as needed to prevent your

clothes from being over-dried.

4) *Press the half load button*.

5) Press the ON/OFF switch. At the end of the drying cycle, there is a 10 minute cool down period. This will minimise creasing due to allowing the fabric to cool down gently.

Warning. During the wash and drying cycles, the glass porthole in the door will become hot so keep children away. NEVER USE THE DRYER WITH A PLASTIC DETERGENT DISPENSING CUP IN THE DRUM.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Do not dry clothes that contain plastic, foam or rubber (like) materials. Do not dry clothes in the dryer that have not been cleaned in a water solution.

REMEMBER NOT TO DRY WOOL IN YOUR DRYER!

24

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING:

Please note: Disconnect the power supply before attempting maintenance or cleaning your washing machine.

Cleaning the outlet filter. If you are using the drying feature on your appliance, you will need to clean this out after every 3-4 washes. If you have been drying clothes that will leave a lot of fluff or lint, you will then need to clean this filter out after each such cycle. If, however, you have only been using the washing function, you should then clean this filter after every 25 washing cycle programmes to keep the drain pump running efficiently (this will enable more efficient washing and rinsing).

* NOTE: If you do not fit the filter cover properly, it will leak water!

Cleaning the Inlet Valve Filter

25

Cleaning the Detergent Drawer

Detergents may form sediment in your detergent drawer or in the housing of the detergent drawer over time.

To clean the sediment, pull out the detergent drawer from time to time.

To pull out the detergent drawer: Pull the detergent drawer to the end. (Diagram 1) Lift the front of the drawer and pull it out (Diagram 2) After the drawer has dried off, put it back into its housing the

same way you had pulled it out.

Cleaning the Siphon Plug Pull out the detergent drawer. Remove the siphon plug and clean the residues of the softener thoroughly. Fit the cleaned siphon plug back in place. Make sure it is sitting properly in place.

DETERGENT DRAWER

26

Cleaning the Cabinet 9 Clean the exterior surface of your machine with lukewarm water

and a cleaning substance that will not harm or scratch the cabinet. After rinsing with clean water, wipe it with a soft and dry cloth.

PLEASE NOTE: If your appliance is installed in a location where the ambient temperature can fall below 0 C, do the following (once before you know your machine will be unused for a long time).

o Plug in your Washer-dryer. o Close the water tap and pull out the water inlet hose or hoses from

the tap. o Place the ends of the water drain and water inlet hoses in a cup on

the ground. o Adjust the programme knob to Draining program. o The Program Ready light will come on. o Run the programme by pressing the Start/Pause button. o Unplug your machine when the programme is over (i.e., when the

program end light is on).

* When you complete this process, the remaining water inside the machine will be drained. There will now be no danger of ice forming. When you use your washing machine again, be sure that the ambient temperature is above 0 C. Cleaning the Drum *PLEASE NOTE: Do not leave metal parts like needles, staples or coins inside your Washer-dryer. These items cause rust build-up in the drum. To clean these stains away, use a cleaning substance (that doesnt have chlorine in it) and follow the manufacturers guidelines. Never use dish-washing wires or similarly rough objects. *REMOVAL OF LIME FROM YOUR MACHINE If you use the right amount of detergent in your washing machine, there will be no need for lime removal. However, if you want to use lime removers, please pay attention to their manufacturers warnings.

CONNECTING TO THE WATER MAINS

Depending on your appliances features, it may operate with a single water inlet (cold) or a double water inlet (hot/cold). THE WHITE-HEADED HOSE IS FOR THE COLD WATER INLET / THE RED-HEADED HOSE IS FOR THE HOT WATER INLET (but ONLY for machines with a double water inlet system.

40

To prevent leakage from the connection joints, a seal (for machines with cold water inlet only) or seals (for machines with hot & cold water inlets) are included in the hose packing. Fit these seals at the end of the water inlet hoses on the tap side. If your sink only has a mixing tap, use only one hose and connect it to the cold water valve of the machine. In this case, screw on the supplied cap to close the hot water valve.

1) Connect the WHITE-HEADED HOSE to the WATER INLET VALVE with the white filter & connect the RED-HEADED HOSE to the WATER INLET VALVE with the red filer (this is only applicable to machines with double inlet systems).

2) Tighten (but do not over-tighten) the plastic parts of the connections with your hand. Please call a qualified plumber to ensure safer connections.
