Before using for the first time

Before using the machine for the first time ensure that it is correctly installed and connected. See "Installation and connection". Also check that the drain filter is securely tightened to prevent the risk of water leaks during use.

This washing machine has undergone a thorough functional test in the factory and there will be some residual water in the drum from this process.

For safety reasons, spinning is not possible until the machine has been prepared for using for the first time. To activate the spinning function you must run a wash programme without laundry and without detergent.

Using detergent could result in an excessive build-up of foam.

This also activates the ball valve. The ball valve prevents detergent escaping from the suds container into the sump during a wash programme, thus making maximum use of the detergent.

￿Press the I-On/0-Offbutton in.

If the washing machine is being switched on for the first time, the welcome screen will appear.

The welcome screen will appear in the display every time the machine is switched on until a programme lasting longer than 1 hour has been completed.

Setting the language

You will be asked to select the language you require for the display. It is possible to change the language at any time via the programmable functions.
