How to wash correctly

Selecting a programme

B Switch on the washing machine
^ Press in the I-ON/0-OFF button.
^ Open the stopcock.
C Open the drum door
^ Press the Door button and open the
drum door.
D Load the drum
^ Unfold the laundry and load loosely
in the drum. To achieve best results it
is advisable to make up mixed loads
consisting of both large and small
items. This improves the washing ef-
fect and helps distribute the load
evenly to keep the machine stable
and reduce the noise level during
spinning.
To save energy and water try to load
the maximum amount for the
programme selected.
However, be careful not to overload the
machine. Overloading reduces the
wash result and causes more creasing.
E Close the drum door with a gentle
swing.
Make sure that no garments are caught
between the drum door and seal.

lected.
