Before washing the first time

0 1. Pull the detergent drawer a short distance out of the control panel.
2. Pour about 1 litre of water through the detergent drawer and into the
washing machine. This is required in order to seal the wash-water con-
tainer so that the ECO valve can function properly.
3. Run a washing cycle without any washing (t/COTTONS 95, with
detergent quantity cut in half).
This serves to remove residues resulting from production of the appli-
ance from the drum and the wash-water container.

Prepare washing cycle

Sort washing and prepare

• Sort washing according to care symbol and type (see "Washing types
and care symbols").
• Empty all pockets.
• Remove metal objects (paper clips, safety pins etc.).
• In order to prevent bunching up of washing and damage to washing,
close zippers, button up duvets and pillow cases, and tie up loose
ends from, for example, aprons.
• Turn articles with double layered textiles inside out (sleeping bags,
anoraks etc.).
• Coloured, knitted fabrics, as well as wool and textiles with appliqués
should be turned inside out.
• Place small and delicate articles (baby booties, stockings, bras etc.)
into a washing net, a pillow case with zipper, or in large socks before
washing.
• Treat net curtains particularly carefully. Remove metal curtain rail
rollers or burred plastic rollers, or wrap these in a net or bag.
We cannot accept any liability for damage.
• Do not wash coloured and white washing together. White washing
will otherwise turn grey.
