WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
1
Sort your laundry.
See the "Advice and Tips before washing"
section.
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 laundry
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 laundry. The wash program chart shows
how much laundry 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 18 lb (8 kg) of
laundry. 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 main wash compartment,
and pre-wash compartment as well if desired.
Liquid detergent
When using liquid detergent, follow the chart on
page 15 for recommended detergent amounts.
We recommend always using a wash ball with
very thick liquid detergent.
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.
Try using less detergent, and increase only if
you are not satisfied 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 fill above the compartment’s maximum
fill level. Otherwise fabric softener will be
dispensed too early, which impairs the washing
effect.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
