3.7 Electrical connection
•The washing machine must be earthed and
the manufacturer and seller do not accept
responsibility for any damage due to
incorrect electrical connection.
• Connection must comply with national
regulations.
•Power cable plug must be within easy reach
after installation.
•.The washing machine should be plugged
into a 16 Amp, 230 Volt 50 Hz earthed 3 pin
wall socket.
• If the current value of the fuse or breaker in
the house is less than 16 Amps, have a
qualified electrician install a 16 Amp fuse.
• The voltage specified in the "Technical
specifications" section must be equal to your
mains voltage.
•Do not make connections via extension
cables or multi-plugs.
Transportation of the product
1. Unplug the product before transporting it.
2. Remove water drain and water supply
connections.
3. Drain all water that has remained in the
product.
4. Install transportation safety bolts in the
reverse order of removal procedure.
4 Preparation 4.1 Sorting the laundry
• Sort laundry according to type of fabric,
colour, and degree of soiling and allowable
water temperature.
•Always obey the instructions given on the
garment tags.
4.2 Preparing laundry for washing
• Laundry items with metal attachments such
as, underwired bras, belt buckles or metal
buttons will damage the machine.
Remove the metal pieces or wash the
clothes by putting them in a laundry bag or
pillow case.
• Remove all items in pockets such as coins,
pens and paper clips, and turn pockets
inside out and brush pockets. Such objects
may damage the machine and cause noise.
• Put small size clothes such as infant's
socks and nylon stockings in a laundry bag
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” labelled products with an
appropriate programme only.
• 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 package instructions.
• 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 has been soiled with flour,
lime dust, milk powder, etc. must be shaken
off before placing into the machine. Dusts
and powders on the laundry may build up on
the inner parts of the machine in time and
can cause damage.
4.3 Things to be done for energy saving
• Operate the machine in the highest
capacity allowed by the programme you
have selected, but do not overload; see
"Programme and consumption table" (5.10).
• Always follow the instructions on the
detergent packaging.
• Wash slightly soiled laundry at low
temperatures.
• Use faster programmes for small quantities
of lightly soiled laundry.
• Do not use prewash and high temperatures
for laundry that is not heavily soiled or
stained.
• If you plan to dry laundry in a dryer, select
the highest spin speed recommended during
the washing process.
• Do not use detergent in excess of the
amount recommended on the detergent
package.
Warning: To prevent the lock nuts from
being damaged, do not use tools to loosen

transportation safety bolts properly fixed in
place!
Warning: Packaging materials are
dangerous to children. Keep packaging
materials in a safe place away from reach of
