OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Washing Agents and How Much to Use

Use only washing powder for machine washing. Use special washing agents for delicate and woolen fabrics.

This washing machine was designed for washing powder as well as for liquid detergent. As to the quantity of the washing agent, refer to the manufacturer's recommendation. The quantity of washing agent recommended on the packaging is usually sufficient for normally soiled laundry, depending on the hardness of the water.

If your water is hard, we recommend using water softener. This means that you can then use the same quantity of washing powder as if the water was soft (hardness degree 1). Follow manufacturer's instruction.

Dispenser

Fabric Conditioner and Starching Agent

When using fabric conditioner or starching agent, always follow the manufacturer's instructions, but never fill higher than the level marked on the dispenser. The excess is immediately poured out before the program begins washing and is therefore lost (waste). When using the high density liquid agent we recommend mixing it with water before filling, as otherwise the dispenser outlet may clog.

In case the dispenser is clogged and the liquid is not flushed, the dispenser should be washed. Remove level indicator and wash with brush and lukewarm water or rinse under the tap (fig. 13).

The detergent dispenser is divided into three sections (fig. 12). The table of the program shows which section to use.

These sections are used for washing powder

This section is used for liquid softener and starching agent.

Always add washing agents before switching on the machine and keep the dispenser clean and dry. This allows washing agent to be thoroughly

rinsed from the dispenser.

Programs without a pre-wash cycle, the detergent can be put directly into the drum. This is especially convenient if:

−you use larger amounts of detergent (very hard water),

−you use detergent which is hard to rinse from the dispenser,

−water pressure is low,

−you use a concentrated detergent special dosing sack which should be inserted directly in the drum.

Using not enough detergent causes

−the laundry to turn grey,

−greasy clots,

−lime deposit in the machine and on the laundry.

Using too much detergent causes

−bubbling,

−reduced agitation and washing effect,

−inadequate rinsing.

We recommend that you gradually decrease or increase the quantity of washing agent depending upon the soil level condition of the linen.

Never use both fabric conditioner and starching agent together as this combination may cause the dispenser opening to clog.

Liquid Washing Agents

(for some models only)

If the washing machine is equipped with partition plate, the middle section may also be used for liquid washing agents.

Lift the partition plate when using washing powders and push it in when using liquid detergent.

We recommend using liquid detergent with washing program without pre-wash.
