Section 1: Installation transit Please pay attention to the following instructions before using your washing machine. Failure to install the machine correctly may result in irreperable dam- age which is not covered by your warranty. If you are unsure do not proceed and call an appliance engineer or installer.
Suitable Installation Surroundings It is important that you adhere to the following guidelines to get optimal noise and vibration reduction from your machine: • The machine should be installed on a solid surface* • The machine should not be installed on thick carpet or a loose carpet/flooring such as a rug, carpet tiles however are acceptable if properly fixed •...
Drainage Connection The machine should be connected using the fixed 1.5M drain hose to a suitable drain- water out age point on your home plumbing. If this is not available or seems unsuitable you may require a plumber to alter your drainage point to suit an automatic washing machine. Should you require an extended drain hose to reach the drain point the maximum advisable length of hose is 2.5M, extending any further than this may cause issues with draining.
Mains Votage Connection Your machine requires a UK 13A standard plug point from which to draw power and power is pre-fitted with a standard 13A plugtop which is moulded onto the power lead. Wherever possible this should be inserted directly to a suitable plug point and not an extension lead or suchlike.

Delicate Washes Often delicate items, especially machine washable wool or wool mixed fabrics, require delicates an even more gentle wash than the synthetic washes in order to give the best possible care for you clothes. These programs have a still lower drum agitation and so are gen- teler to your clothes and none will heat above 30°C or offer the full spin speed, all these programs will spin at the lower speed.

handwash You can use the special handwash cycle to clean garments that are marked as being for handwash only thus saving you the need to handwash any items. However, particular care must be paid to the detergent requirments for each fabric type, please refer to the fabric care label on the garment for more information.

Laundry Symbols symbols All clothing manufactured has laundry symbols on the garment’s labelling that will give an indication of the recommendations for washing without causign damage to the garments as well as extending the life of them. Washed incorrectly some items may become damaged in a few washes or it could take many for the item to become dam- aged.
This section is all about how to use your machine and offers advice on getting the most from your ISE. First Use When your machine is delivered you may find that there is some residual water from factory testing in the machine, this is nothing to be concerned about and is perfectly normal.
Laundry Sorting & Detergents The very first thing to do is sort your laundry into white/lights, separate coloured or dark items and articles that require special treatments, such as wool or hand wash clothing. This is essential to prevent dye transfer and to keep your clothes looking good for longer.
This shows the correct amount of space that is required to obtain the optimal results from your ISE and, loaded correctly with the correct detergent being used your ma- chine will deliver great washing results.
Starting The Machine Once you have loaded the machine and placed the detergent in the correct compart- ment of the soap drawer or placed the detergent in the drum you are ready to close the door and select your desired program. Should the door not be closed correctly or hindered in some way the safety features of the machine will not allow it to start and if this should happen then the start/pause light will blink to indicate that the door is not correctly closed.
