Before the first wash

Before using your washing machine for the first time, we recommend you to do a preliminary wash with the machine empty, as a precaution to clean the drum, tank and the product box.

1.Pour a dose of detergent in the “washing” distributor.

2.Select the WHITE / COLOUREDS 95°C program.

3.Press the START/PAUSE button "".

Preparing a Wash Load

Sorting and preparing a wash load

Sort washing according to the 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 duvet covers and pillow cases, and tie up loose straps such as from aprons.

Turn articles with double layered textiles inside out (sleeping bags, anoraks etc.).

Coloured, knitted fabrics, as well as wool and fabrics with appliqués should be turned inside out.

Place small and delicate items (e.g. socks, tights and stockings, bras etc.) in a washing net, or pillow case.

Handle curtains with care. Metal rollers or burred, plastic rollers must be removed or tied into a net or bag. We cannot accept liability for damage.

Do not wash coloured and white washing together. This could discolour white washing or turn it grey.

New, coloured washing often contains excessive dye. Wash these separately the first time.

Mix small and large items of washing. This improves washing efficiency and the washing is more evenly distributed during the spinning cycle.

Shake out washing before placing into the washing machine.

Do not place folded washing into the drum.

Observe tips such as "wash separately“ and "wash separately several times".
