Before you start using your machine

The first wash cycle

Once the appliance has been installed and before you use it for the first time, run a wash cycle without detergent and no laundry. This will check your installation, connections and drainage and will thoroughly clean the interior before you carry out an actual wash programme on your laundry.

This will take approximately 21/2 hours to complete.

!Run the 95˚ White Cotton programme 'B', without laundry and without detergent.

!During this cycle check for any leaks from under the machine. If present ensure all hoses are securely tightened.
