What does “UPDATE” mean?

The wash programmes in your washing machine are controlled by soft-
ware.
New types of fabric or new detergents may require new wash pro-
grammes in the future. In most cases, the software can be adapted to 
this. 
For further information on a possible “update” please contact customer 
service.

Anti-flood system Aqua C 

+ 

Aqua Alarm

In the event of damage to the supply hose, the system blocks the fur-
ther supply of water to the unit directly st the water tap.
If water escapes at another point, the drainage pump pumps the water 
off automatically - even if the unit is switched on. It is merely neces-
sary for the washing machine to be connected to the mains. If the anti-
flood system responds, a warning signal sounds at the same time.
