Washing
1
Sort your laundry.
See the "Advice and tips before washing"
chapter.
Place underwired bras in a laundry net.
Empty pockets. Coins, nails and the like can
cause damage to the machine and fabrics. See
the "Advice and Tips" section before washing.
2
Turn on the main power
switch
3
Open the washer door and
load the washing
If the washer door is closed, press the
Door opening button (key symbol). The door
opens once all water has drained from the
machine. Load the washing. The wash program
chart shows how much washing can be washed
with each program.
4
Add detergent and fabric
softener, as required
The detergent packaging will have
recommendations for how much detergent you
should use. The machine holds 7 kg of washing.
If you only have a small amount of laundry in
the machine, you can reduce the amount of
detergent used.
Powder detergent
Pour the powder into the compartment for the
main wash, and pre-wash as well if desired.
Liquid detergent
When using liquid detergent, follow the detergent
manufacturer’s recommendations. For thick
detergent we always recommend using a wash
ball. Use the separator in the main detergent
compartment. Pour the liquid detergent into the
front section of the detergent compartment.
Wash ball or net
If you use a wash ball or net, place it directly in
the drum and select a program without pre-wash.
NOTE!
Detergent overdosing does not give better
washing results; it merely causes a greater
impact on the environment; can also hinder the
wash performance.
Try using less detergent, and increase only if you
are not satis fi ed with the results.
Fabric softener
Pour the fabric softener into the
compartment with the symbol. Follow
the recommendations on the fabric softener
packaging.
NOTE!
Do not fi ll above the compartment’s maximum
fi ll level. Otherwise fabric softener will run in too
early, and will impair washing results.
