9 FAULT FINDING - Factory 30 - Arcadia Models IMPORTANT NOTE: Disconnect the machine from Electricity Supply before any testing. General Information If the machine has an Earth Fault it can display erroneous fault codes. Repair any Earth Faults on the machine before using the code guide on the previous page. Some faults will not show up as error codes:- The module will not show up a fault if the water to the machine is turned off or if the solenoid valves are open circuit. Certain motor faults, will not show as a fault, the door will lock but the machine will not start a programme (motor plug disconnected, faulty brushes etc.). Open circuit field windings will signal fault F0. If the motor Thermoprotector (toc) - if fitted - operates in the middle of a cycle, the machine will stop with no fault code indicated, when the thermoprotector (toc) resets the cycle will then restart. If the element goes open circuit in the middle of a programme and the pressure switch is in the full position, the machine may not signal a fault but will wash for a long extended period. Note: This chart refers to both "commutator" (brush motor) and "three phase" (non-brush motor) models. Refer to text for appropriate information.note: This chart refers to both "commutator" (brush motor) and "three phase" (non-brush motor) models. Refer to text for appropriate information.

16 DISPLAY The display is useful when programming the machine and provides a great deal of information. The duration of the available wash cycles and the remaining time of a running cycle appear in section A (the display will show the maximum duration of the cycle chosen, which may decrease after several minutes, since the effective duration of the programme varies depending on the wash load and the settings chosen); if the DELAY option has been set, the countdown to the start of the selected wash cycle will appear. Pressing the corresponding button allows you to view the maximum spin speed and temperature values attained by the machine during the set wash cycle, or the values selected most recently, if these are compatible with the set wash cycle. The 'wash cycle phases' corresponding to the selected wash cycle and the 'wash cycle phase' of the running wash cycle appear in section B: The icons corresponding to 'temperature', 'spin' and 'delayed start' (working from the left) are displayed in section C. The 'temperature' bars indicate the maximum temperature level which may be selected for the set cycle. The 'spin' bars indicate the maximum spin level which may be selected for the set cycle. The 'delay' symbol, when lit, indicates that the set 'delayed start' value has appeared on the display. 6 of 3

17 DOOR LOCKED INDICATOR LIGHT The 'Door Locked' indicator light will come on when you press the START / PAUSE button and will stay lit throughout the programme. When the programme has finished the indicator light will go out and you can then open the door, a double CLUNK noise will be heard from the door lock Solenoid at this point. If the door is not closed properly prior to starting a programme the door lock solenoid will 'CLUNK' approximately 5 times followed by a flashing DOOR indication in the display window, every 5 seconds from then onwards there will be an audible beep. Push the door closed and press START / PAUSE button to commence the cycle. WASH OPTIONS If the selected option is not compatible with the set wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and the option will not be activated. If the selected option is not compatible with a previously selected one, the indicator light corresponding to the first function selected will flash and only the second option will be activated; the indicator light for the option which has been activated will be illuminated. Extra Rinse By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin. 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; the 'Easy Iron' and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash (orange) and the text 'END OF CYCLE' will appear on the display. To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the 'Easy Iron' button. 7 of 3

18 CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE TO CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE, use the relevant buttons: 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 (the 'OFF' setting). If these buttons are pressed again, the maximum values are restored. Exception: if the 3 programme is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a value of 90 C. Setting a Delayed Start To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period has been reached. When this option has been activated, the symbol lights up on the display. To remove the delayed start setting, press the button until the text 'OFF' appears on the display. Set the Desired Wash Intensity Option makes it possible to optimise washing based on the level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash cycle intensity. Select the wash programme: the cycle will be automatically set to 'Normal' as optimised for garments with an average level of soil (this setting is not applicable to the 'Wool' cycle, which is automatically set to 'Delicate'). For heavily-soiled garments press button until the 'Intensive' level is reached. This level ensures a high-performance wash due to a larger quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle and due to increased drum rotation. It is useful when removing the most stubborn stains. For lightly-soiled garments or a more delicate treatment of the fabrics, press button until the 'Delicate' level is reached. The cycle will reduce drum rotation to ensure washing results that are perfect for delicate garments. Modify the Cycle Settings Press the button to enable the option; the indicator light corresponding to the button will switch on. Press the button again to disable the option; the indicator light will switch off. If the selected option is not compatible with the set wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and the option will not be activated. If the selected option is not compatible with a previously selected one, the indicator light corresponding to the first function selected will flash and only the second option will be activated; the indicator light for the option which has been activated will be illuminated. The options may affect the recommended load value and/or the duration of the cycle. 8 of 3

19 WASH PROGRAMMES Table of Wash Cycles 9 of 3

20 DETERGENTS & LAUNDRY Detergent Dispenser Drawer Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact a build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to environmental pollution. Do not use hand washing detergents because these create too much foam. Open the detergent dispenser drawer and pour in the detergent or washing additive, as follows. B A Do not pour detergent into the middle compartment (*). Detergent should only be poured into the compartment. Compartment : Detergent for the wash cycle (powder or liquid) If liquid detergent is used, it is recommended that the removable plastic partition A (supplied) be used for proper dosage. If powder detergent is used, place the partition into slot B. Compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.) The fabric softener should not overflow the grid. 2 * Garments Requiring Special Care Anti Stain: The cycle is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class). When running the programme, do not mix garments of different colours. We recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains. Whites: Use this cycle 2 to wash white clothes. The programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results. Anti Allergy 60 : Use the cycle 7 to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites, cat s and dog s hair. Anti Allergy 40 : (cycle 8) cycle suitable for cotton laundry and other resistant fabrics to guarantee the removal of pollen and cat and dog hair already at 40. Lingerie: For undergarments of any colour, in any fabric. Use special wash cycle 9. Baby: Use the special wash cycle 0 to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while removing all traces of detergent from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergic reactions. 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. Bed & Bath: Use the cycle to wash bed linen and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener performance and helps you save time and energy. We recommend the use of powder detergent. Cotton Standard 20 : (cycle 5) Ideal for lightly 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. 20 of 3

21 Shirts: Use the cycle 2 to wash shirts in different fabrics and colours to guarantee they receive the best possible care. Wool: The wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool garments labelled as 'hand wash' provided that the products are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine (M28). Delicates: Use programme 4 to wash very delicate garments with decorative features and sequins. To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 4 and set the 'delicate' level from option. We recommend turning the garments inside out before washing and placing small items into the special bag for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate garments for best results. 2 of 3

22 Automatic Features Auto Half Load Auto half load adjusts the amount of water in the wash load depending on the absorbency of garments in the wash load. Fabric Conditioner Dispensing Dispensing of fabric conditioner is achieved by energising both the Pre-Wash and Main Wash cold valves. Load Balancing System Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin 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 machine 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. 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. Before each spin, the controls senses the load within the drum and 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, 480 grammes and level 030 grammes. If the out of balance is below level the machine will spin at full speed, if between level and level 2 the machine will spin at the reduced speed of 600 rpm and above level 2 spin at reduced speed of 400 rpm. There are 5 attempts at level with 57 attempts in total, this being the same for both cotton and synthetic spins. The wool spin has one level of out of 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. 22 of 3

26 CONTROLS INFORMATION A single control board located at the back of the machine contains all the circuitry to control the machine and interfaces with the programme selector, option buttons and LEDs located on the console panel. The control board has an access port to the rear of the machine. Programmes are selected by turning the rotary switch to one of the 6 positions. Special options can be selected by pressing the appropriate buttons and the programme process followed by LEDs. The machine is switched on using the On/Off button and selected programmes started by pressing the Start/Cancel button. MAIN BOARD PROGRAMMING - For Modules with fixed EEProm From Serial Number , the module will always be supplied without a programme when supplied as a spare part. NOTE: This board does not have a physically replaceable EEProm. Smart Card Reader Programming a Main Board There are a number of ways the board can be programmed - some of which are not applicable to certain markets. Types of programming:. Handheld Terminal (Not UK) 2. Emit / Memwriter (UK Indesit Service Engineers) 3. Smart Reader and Smart Card (certain areas of UK market) see photo. PROGRAMMING (Using Smartcard Reader / Card) If the Main Module has been replaced during a repair the board will require programming using the following method.. Do NOT connect the machine to electrical supply. 2. Insert the pre-programmed card into the Card reader. Care must be taken at this point to ensure the card is inserted correctly with the Chip on the card facing the PCB of the Reader. 3. Insert the Reader and Card into module connection port - see photo. 4. Connect the machine to the Electrical supply, the LEDs on the Smart Card Reader will light in this sequence: a) Red ON: Good Communication between Smart Card Reader and Card. b) Red OFF; Green Blinking: Download taking place. c) At end, Green ON ---> Download OK. d) At end, Red ON or RED Flashing ---> Download NOT OK. 5. Programming Complete, disconnect the machine from Electrical supply. 6. Remove the Smart Card Reader. Smart Card this card holds the program file and can only be used ONCE.

28 INSTALLATION Unpacking. Unpack the washing machine and check whether the it has been damaged during transport. If this is the case, do not install it and contact the retailer. 2. Remove the four (on Polish built models) protective screws (transit bolts) and the rubber washer with the respective spacer, situated on the rear of the appliance (see Figures below). 3. Fit the blanking plugs provided into the holes vacated by the bolts. 4. Use the plug provided to seal the holes where the mains plug was housed (if supplied), situated on the lower right hand side on the rear of the appliance. 5. Keep all the removed parts as they will be required again if the washing machine needs to be moved to another location. This raised part is attached to the polystyrene base and should have been removed when unpacking. Remove 4 transit bolts. Levelling. Install the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls, cabinets etc. 2. Compensate for any unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable front feet. The angle of inclination, measured according to the worktop must not exceed 2. Levelling the appliance correctly will provide it with stability and avoid 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 underneath the appliance. continued of 3

29 Connecting the Water Inlet Hose. Before making the water connection to the 3/4" thread, allow the water freely from the supply tap until it is perfectly clear. Check that seal is in place inside the hose end cap. Connect the other end of the water inlet hose to the washing machine, screwing it onto the cold water inlet, situated on the top right-hand rear of the appliance - see illustration.!screw the inlet end with the blue cap onto the cold water supply tap. Turn the tap on and check for leaks: tighten if necessary. 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 Specifications page. 29 of 3

30 DRAINAGE CONNECTIONS A. Connect the drain hose, without kinking it, to a draining duct or a wall drain fixed at a height between 65 and 00 cm from the floor. See Fig.. B. Alternatively, place it over the edge of a basin, sink or tub, fastening the hose supplied to the tap. See Fig.. The free end of the hose should not be under water. Note: We advise against the use of hose extensions. In case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 50 cm in length. Fig. Under Sink Connections: The drain hose may be connected to an under sink trap. Before connecting the drain hose from the machine ensure that any blanks or removable ends have been taken off the spigot. See Fig.2. Fig.2 Note: The hose must also be raised up in a similar way to a standpipe installation to prevent backflow of waste water from the sink into the machine. See Fig.. Electrical Connections Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that: - 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 serviceman. 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. 30 of 3

31 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. The washing machine has a 'Auto Clean' programme for its internal parts that must be run with no load in the drum. To help the wash cycle you may want to use either the detergent (i.e. a quantity 0% the quantity specified for lightly-soiled garments) or special additives to clean the washing machine. We recommend running a cleaning programme every 40 wash cycles. To start the programme press buttons A and B simultaneously for 5 seconds (see figure). A B The programme will start automatically and will run for about 70 minutes. To stop the cycle press the START/PAUSE button. 3 of 3
