Preparing laundry for washing
•
Laundry items with metal attachments such as, underwired
bras, belt buckles or metal buttons will damage the machine.
Remove the metal pieces or wash the clothes by putting
them in a laundry bag or pillow case.
•
Take out all substances in the pockets such as coins, pens
and paper clips, and turn pockets inside out and brush. Such
objects may damage the product or cause noise problem.
•
Put small size clothes such as infant's socks and nylon
stockings in a laundry bag or pillow case.
•
Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove curtain
attachment items.
•
Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and tears.
•
Wash "machine washable" or "hand washable" labeled
products only with an appropriate programme.
•
Do not wash colours and whites together. New, dark coloured
cottons release a lot of dye. Wash them separately.
•
Tough stains must be treated properly before washing. If
unsure, check with a dry cleaner.
•
Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale removers
suitable for machine wash. Always follow the instructions on
the package.
•
Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned inside out.
•
Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the freezer for a
few hours before washing. This will reduce pilling.
•
Laundry that are subjected to materials such as flour, lime
dust, milk powder, etc. intensely must be shaken off before
placing into the machine. Such dusts and powders on the
laundry may build up on the inner parts of the machine in
time and can cause damage.
Correct load capacity
The maximum load capacity depends on the type of laundry, the
degree of soiling and the washing programme desired.
The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water according
to the weight of the loaded laundry.
Follow the information in the "Programme and consumption
A
table". When overloaded, machine's washing performance
will drop. Moreover, noise and vibration problems may occur.
Loading the laundry
•
Open the loading door.
•
Place laundry items loosely into the machine.
•
Push the loading door to close until you hear a locking sound.
Ensure that no items are caught in the door.
The loading door is locked while a programme is running.
C
The door can only be opened a while after the programme
comes to an end.
In case of misplacing the laundry, noise and vibration
A
problems may occur in the machine.

Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents
•
Add detergent and softener before starting the washing
programme.
•
Never open the detergent drawer while the washing
programme is running!
•
When using a programme without prewash, do not put any
detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. I).
•
In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent
into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. I).
•
Do not select a programme with prewash if you are using
a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the detergent bag
or the dispensing ball directly among the laundry in the
machine.
•
If you are using liquid detergent, do not forget to place
the liquid detergent cup into the main wash compartment
(compartment nr. II).
Choosing the detergent type
The type of detergent to be used depends on the type and colour
of the fabric.
•
Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry.
•
Wash your delicate clothes only with special detergents
(liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for delicate
clothes.
•
When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, it is
recommended to use liquid detergent.
•
Wash woolens with special detergent made specifically for
woolens.
Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing
A
machines.
Do not use soap powder.

Adjusting detergent amount
The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the
amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness. Read
the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent package carefully
and follow the dosage values.
•
Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities
recommended on the detergent package to avoid problems
of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally,
environmental protection.
•
Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled
clothes.
•
Use concentrated detergents in the recommended dosage.
Using softeners
Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent
drawer.
•
Use the dosages recommended on the package.
•
Do not exceed the (>max<) level marking in the softener
compartment.
•
If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before
putting it in the detergent drawer.
Using liquid detergents
If the product contains a liquid detergent cup:
•
Make sure that you have placed the liquid detergent cup in
compartment nr. "2".
•
Use the detergent manufacturer's measuring cup and follow
the instructions on the package.
•
Use the dosages recommended on the package.
•
If the liquid detergent has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water
before putting in the detergent cup.
