PRACTICAL ADVICE REGARDING WASHING
Hard water causes sediment to form.
Information about water hardness is available from your nearest
water works.
It is advised that water softeners are used for every wash.

VI. Power cut
(programme memory)
Power cuts or unplugging the machine does not cancel the set-
ting. This has been memorised and the cycle will continue once
the power is restored. Do not open the doors of the washing
machine during a power cut.
VII. Loading
Maximum drum capacity 5 kg:
Load the washing into the drum according to the following in-
structions:
l
cotton, denim, children’s clothes – max full drum (do not force clo-
thes into the drum as this will reduce the quality of the wash!).
l
synthetics - max 1/2 drum
l
wool, silk, delicate fabrics - max. approx. 1/3 of the drum.
Important!
Do not overload the machine! Overloading the machine
may cause damage to the clothes being washed!
The maximum load amounts depending on the program are
given in table of programs.
VIII. Even load
distribution control
The electronic control device includes a load distribution control
system. In the event that the system detects uneven distribution
of load in the drum, the washing machine will try to relocate it.
Sometimes the trials will not be sufficient for the proper location of
the clothes (in the case of frotte dressing gowns washed with other
types of clothes, ball-shaped sheets which closes several objects
inside it). The system may react in the following way:
l
it may accept the uneven distribution of clothes but will decrease
the spin speed
l
it may not allow spinning as the clothes are distributed
unevenly.)
In both cases, after the wash is over, open the door of the washing
machine, place the laundry manually, close the door and select the
spin programme again.
