2. Place the laundry loosely in the machine.
• Do not leave the detergent drawer open during
washing!
3. Push the loading door shut until you hear a
click. Make sure nothing gets in the door.
The loading door is locked when a
program is running. The door lock will
open immediately after the wash cycle has
finished. You can then open the loading
door. If the door does not open, apply the
solutions provided for the error 'Loading
door cannot be opened.' in the
'Troubleshooting' chapter.

detergent in the prewash compartment
(compartment no. "1").
• If you run a program with prewash, do not put
liquid detergent in the prewash compartment
(compartment no. "1").

when using a detergent bag or detergent

between the wax in the product.

place the liquid detergent container in the

desired washing program.
