Important:
• Connection should comply with national
regulations.
• The voltage and the allowed fuse protection
are specified in the section “Technical
Specifications”.
• The specified voltage must be equal to your
mains voltage.
• Connection via extension cords or multi-
plugs should not be made.

3 Initial preparations for
washing
Preparing clothes for washing
Laundry items with metal attachments such as,
bras, belt buckles and metal buttons will damage
the machine. Remove metal attachments or
place the items in a clothing bag, pillow case, or
something similar.
• Sort the laundry according to type of fabric,
color, and degree of soiling and permissible
water temperature. Always follow the advice
on the garment labels.
• Place small items like infants’ socks and
nylon stockings, etc. in a laundry bag, pillow
case or something similar. This will also save
your laundry from getting lost.
• Wash “machine washable” or “hand
washable” labeled products only with an
appropriate program.
• Do not wash colors and whites together.
New, dark colored cottons may release a lot
of dye. Wash them separately.
• Use only dyes/color changers and lime
removers suitable for machine wash. Always
follow the instructions on the packaging.
• Wash trousers and delicate clothes turned
inside out.
Correct load capacity
C
Please follow the information in the "Program
Selection Table". Washing results will
degrade when the machine is overloaded.
Loading door
The door locks during program operation and
the Door Locked Symbol lights up. The door can
be opened when the symbol fades out.
Detergents and softeners
Detergent Drawer
The detergent drawer is composed of three
compartments:
The detergent dispenser may be in two different
types according to the model of your machine.
– (I) for prewash
– (II) for main wash
- (III) siphon
– ( ) for softener
Detergent, softener and other cleaning
agents
Add detergent and softener before starting the
washing program.
Never open the detergent dispenser drawer
while the washing program is running!
When using a program without pre-wash, no
detergent should be put into the pre-wash
compartment (Compartment no. I).
Detergent quantity
The amount of washing detergent to be used
depends on the amount of laundry, the degree
of soiling and water hardness.
• Do not use amounts exceeding the quantities
recommended on the package to avoid
problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing,
financial savings and finally, environmental
protection.
• Never exceed the (> max <) level marking;
otherwise, the softener will be wasted
without being used.
• Do not use liquid detergent if you want to
wash using the time delay feature.
