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.
A Follow the information in the “Programme and consumption 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.
C The loading door is locked while a programme is running. The door can only be opened a while after the programme comes to an end.
A In case of misplacing the laundry, noise and vibration problems may occur in the machine.
Using detergent and softener
Detergent Drawer
The detergent drawer is composed of three compartments:
-(I) for prewash
-(II) for main wash
– (III) for softener
– (*) in addition, there is siphon piece in the softener compartment.
2 | 3 | 1 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
C The detergent dispenser may be in two different types according to the model of your machine as seen above.
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.
A Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines.

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.
