CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY COLD FILL ONLY BENEFITS • Removes the requirement to need a hot water supply. •
Cold water relaxes fabrics, whilst hot water can seal in stains.
• •
Improved stain removal. Biological detergents contain enzymes which are active between 30°C and 53°C giving greater results at lower temperatures.
•
The most commonly used programme at present is 40°C which will use cold water at present even when hot and cold are available.
•
At present only programmes above 60°C use hot water as part of the fill cycle and only contributes to a very small proportion of the overall water intake. You only heat the water required to the correct temperature which makes it cheaper to run.
•
COLD FILL CONNECTION AND HOT SUPPLY REMOVAL The information below is contained in the customers Installation Guide. Before making the connection to the cold water supply, allow the water to run freely from the tap until it is perfectly clear. 1
Screw the cold water fill hose (blue connector) onto the cold water supply until tight.
2
Fit a 3/4” BSP sealing cap to the hot water supply, to prevent unused supply leakage.
3
Turn on the cold water supply and check for leaks, tighten if necessary. Leave the unused hot water supply turned off.

Connecting to the Water Supply continued
Electrical Connections Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:
WARNINGS: The water pressure should be between 3 and 150 psi (21 - 1034 kPa). Incorrect pressures could lead to flooding. The water supply tap should be accessible when the machine is installed. Before connecting the fill hose, check that water is running from the water supply tap you will use for the machine. Connect the washing machine to the water supply using the fill hose fitted to the machine. Do not use an old hose. 1 2 3
Cold Fill Unclip the fill hose from the back of the machine. Connect the free end of the blue fill hose to the COLD water supply. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks. If there is a leak, turn off the water supply, remove the connector and check that the sealing washer is in place. Refit the connector and tighten it.
4
Turn on the water supply. When moving the machine into its final position, make sure that the hose is not trapped or kinked.
Fig. 1
- the socket is earthed and in compliance with the applicable law. - the supply voltage is included within the values indicated in the Specifications page. - the socket is compatible with the washing machines plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.
Location ! The washing machine should not be installed in an outdoor environment, not even when the area is sheltered, because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms. ! When the washing machine is installed, the mains socket must be within easy reach. ! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets. ! The power supply cable must never be bent or dangerously compressed. ! The power supply cable must only be replaced by an authorised engineer.
Fig. 2
If the fill hose is too short: A longer fill hose is available. Remove the existing fill hose from the inlet valve on the back of the machine and fit the new longer fill hose as shown above with the angled ends of the hoses connected to the machine (see Fig. 2).

INSTALLATION 1. Unscrew the bolt using a 13 mm spanner.
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. Remove the polystyrene base The vertical block part of the base (see below) should have stayed intact when the base was removed. If it has broken off and is still inside the machine, carefully lay the machine on its side, onto the polystyrene top cap and then remove the block.
2. STOP when 3 threads can be seen.
3. Hold, slide and pull to remove. Vertical block
4. For safety, insert one of the plastic covers supplied with the machine over the hole.
polystyrene base
Warning: Packaging materials are not childrens toys. Remove the transit fixings Follow these instructions to remove the TWO transit fixings.
IMPORTANT: Situated one either side of the rear , both transit bolts MUST be removed before use. Failure to do so may cause damage to the machine! It is important that the transit bolt and spacer come out intact.
Repeat steps 1 to 4 to remove the second transit bolt. Location Where the machine is installed will affect its performance: •
For your safety and to comply with electrical regulations, seek professional advice if you want to install your machine in a bath or shower room.
•
Make sure that the electrical socket and water taps are easily accessible. You should switch off the machines electrical and water supplies when you are not using it for extended periods.
•
Make sure that you allow enough space for the machine. Select a space at least 60 cm wide, 60 cm deep and 85 cm high. Also leave enough space to open the door fully, so that you can load and unload it easily. continued ...

•
Where possible, the machine should be positioned on a solid floor to minimise vibration.
•
Take care when you move the machine not to rip any floor coverings.
Levelling The machine will be noisy if the two front feet are not adjusted so that the machine stands firm and level. •
The machine should be levelled from side to side and from front to back.
1.
Move the machine into its final location. Take care not to trap or kink the hoses. 2. Turn one or both front feet anti-clockwise by hand until the feet cannot be turned any more. When adjusting the feet, use a spirit level to check the machine stands level, from side to side and from front to back.
- The spring on each foot will stop them coming loose. •
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 machine.

Drainage Connections Take care when you remove the drain hose from the clips on the back of the machine. All machines are tested with water before they leave the factory so a small amount of water may still be in the hose. Do not remove the hooked end from the GREY drainage hose when using any of the drainage methods detailed below. You may need to reposition it as required along the drainage hose. For drainage into a standard work top sink, ensure the outlet pipe has a minimum diameter of 32 mm. If the sink is inset, the front edge of the basin must be less than 75 mm from the front edge of the worktop, so that the drain hose will hook securely into the sink. Unclip the drainage hose from the back of the machine and hook over into the sink. Make sure that the sink is free of any obstructions and that the sink plug can not fall into the sink, preventing the water from draining away freely. Pumped out water may be very hot. We recommend one of the following drainage methods: Stand pipe Fig. 1
1 Make sure that the standpipe has a minimum diameter of 38 mm. 2 Remove the drainage hose from the clips on the back of the machine.
Under Sink Waste System Fig.2
1 Cut out the membrane, bung or blanking plug (see Fig. 2). 2 Unclip the drainage hose from the back of the machine.
cut off end
3 Move the hooked end along the drainage hose as required. 4 Attach the drainage hose securely to the under sink drainage unit, using a hose clip (see Fig. 3).
Fig.3
Hose clip
5 Raise the hooked end up to at least 800 mm to avoid water being drawn back into the machine.
WARNING! The company denies all liability if and when these warnings 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 without detergent and no laundry, setting the 90°C programme without a pre-wash cycle.
3 Make sure that the 500 mm top of the standpipe is positioned at least 500 mm from the floor (see Fig.1). Use the plumbing indicator line label on the back of the machine as a guide. 4 Place the drainage hose approximately 100 mm into the standpipe.

Mini Load For washing a smaller load. In addition to reducing actual washing time, this option will reduce water and energy consumption by up to 50%. Note: You can reduce the amount of detergent you use with this wash. Extra Rinse For large wash loads and items for young children or people with sensitive skin. This option adds a rinse. This is not available with Pre-Wash, Wool, Handwash, Silks, Fast Wash or Spin only programmes. Variable Spin Speed Only available on models WF541, WF546, WT540/1P & WT540/1G Use this control to reduce the programme spin speed only. If you leave this dial in the maximum position, the spin speed will be the maximum which is appropriate for whatever wash programme you have chosen. When the programme has finished, return the dial to the original setting. Rinse Hold Clothes will be held in the final rinse water, keeping them fresh until you are ready to complete the programme. Complete the final spin by pressing the Rinse Hold button when the light is flashing. This is not available with Pre-Wash, Wool, Handwash or Spin only programmes. Variable Temperature Only available on models WF321, WF326, WF541, WF546, WT540/1P & WT540/1G Use this control to reduce the wash temperature only. If you leave this dial in the maximum position (95), the actual wash temperature will be the maximum which is appropriate for the wash programme you have chosen. When the programme has finished return the dial to the original setting. Wash Enhance Selecting this option on 60°C and 40°C Cotton programmes will give a more intensive wash for heavily soiled items. Selecting this option on 40°C Wool programme will give the Woolmark approved wash cycle. Not selecting this option will give the relevant standard wash cycles. Cool Wash 30°C A low temperature wash which delivers cleaning results comparable to an intensive 40°C Cotton programme, but at a lower temperature for more colour sensitive garments using less energy.

AUTOMATIC FEATURES Auto Half Load Auto half load saves you time and money when washing smaller loads. Water levels are automatically adjusted to cater for the different loads. Unbalanced Load The machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent it spinning with an unbalanced load. This will minimise excessive vibration and prolong the life of the machine. Before each spin the machine 'senses' the load within the drum and if the machine considers the load to be unbalanced, it will not automatically spin. Instead the machine will try to redistribute the load to achieve balance by tumbling backwards and forwards. Out of Balance Protection The machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent spinning with an unbalanced load. A calculation via the motor tacho and control board detects the current drawn by the motor during distribution. These calculations are done very quickly and are unlikely to be detected by the . Before each spin, the controls senses the load within the drum. If the load is calculated to be out of balance the machine will not automatically spin to the full speed. There are two levels of out of balance, level 1 @ 480 grams and level 2 @ 1030 grams. If the out of balance is below level 1 the machine will spin at full speed. If the out of balance is between level 1 and level 2 the machine will spin at the reduced speed of 800 rpm and above level 2, spin at a reduced speed of 400 rpm. There are 15 attempts at level 1, 39 attempts at level 2 with 54 attempts in total, this being the same for both cotton and synthetic spins. The spin programme will always be completed at a spin speed depending on the balance condition. The wool spin has one level of out of balance @ 1.8 kg. The controls will make three attempts to achieve a balance, if after three attempts a balance is not achieved, the spin is reduced to a speed of 90 rpm.
