3.7 Electrical connection 

 

The washing machine must be earthed and 

the  manufacturer  and  seller  do  not  accept 
responsibility  for  any  damage  due  to 
incorrect electrical connection. 

•  Connection  must  comply  with  national 
regulations.  

Power cable plug must be within easy reach 

after installation.  

.

The  washing  machine  should  be  plugged 

into a 16 Amp, 230 Volt 50 Hz earthed 3 pin 
wall socket.

 

• If the current value of the fuse or breaker in 
the  house  is  less  than  16  Amps,  have  a 
qualified electrician install a 16 Amp fuse.  
•  The  voltage  specified  in  the  "Technical 
specifications" section must be equal to your 
mains voltage.  

Do  not  make  connections  via  extension 

cables or multi-plugs. 

 

Transportation of the product  

1. Unplug the product before transporting it.  
2.  Remove  water  drain  and  water  supply 
connections.  
3.  Drain  all  water  that  has  remained  in  the 
product.  
4.  Install  transportation  safety  bolts  in  the 
reverse order of removal procedure.  

4 Preparation  

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.1 Sorting the laundry 

 

•  Sort  laundry  according  to  type  of  fabric, 
colour,  and  degree  of  soiling  and  allowable 
water temperature.  

Always  obey  the  instructions  given  on  the 

garment tags.  

4.2 Preparing laundry for washing 

 

• Laundry items with metal attachments such 
as,  underwired  bras,  belt  buckles  or  metal 
buttons will damage the machine.  

Remove  the  metal  pieces  or  wash  the 
clothes  by  putting  them  in  a  laundry  bag  or 
pillow case.  
• Remove all items in pockets such as coins, 
pens  and  paper  clips,  and  turn  pockets 
inside  out  and  brush  pockets.  Such  objects 
may damage the machine and cause noise.  
•  Put  small  size  clothes  such  as  infant's 
socks  and  nylon  stockings  in  a  laundry  bag 
or pillow case.  
•  Place  curtains  in  without  compressing 
them. Remove curtain attachment items.  
•  Fasten  zippers,  sew  loose  buttons  and 
mend rips and tears.  
•  Wash  “machine  washable”  or  “hand 
washable” 

labelled 

products 

with 

an 

appropriate programme only.  
•  Do  not  wash  colours  and  whites  together. 
New,  dark  coloured  cottons  release  a  lot  of 
dye. Wash them separately.  
•  Tough  stains  must  be  treated  properly 
before  washing.  If  unsure,  check  with  a  dry 
cleaner.  
•  Use  only  dyes/colour  changers  and 
limescale  removers  suitable  for  machine 
wash. Always follow package instructions.  
• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned 
inside out.  
•  Keep  laundry  items  made  of  Angora  wool 
in  the  freezer  for  a  few  hours  before 
washing. This will reduce pilling.  
•  Laundry  that  has  been  soiled  with  flour, 
lime dust, milk powder, etc. must be shaken 
off  before  placing  into  the  machine.  Dusts 
and powders on the laundry may build up on 
the  inner  parts  of  the  machine  in  time  and 
can cause damage.  

4.3 Things to be done for energy saving 

 

•  Operate  the  machine  in  the  highest 
capacity  allowed  by  the  programme  you 
have  selected,  but  do  not  overload;  see, 
"Programme and consumption table" (5.10). 
•  Always  follow  the  instructions  on  the 
detergent packaging.  
•  Wash  slightly  soiled  laundry  at  low 
temperatures.  
• Use faster programmes for small quantities 
of lightly soiled laundry.  
• Do not use prewash and high temperatures 
for  laundry  that  is  not  heavily  soiled  or 
stained.  
• If you plan to dry laundry in a dryer, select 
the highest spin speed recommended during 
the washing process.  
•  Do  not  use  detergent  in  excess  of  the 
amount  recommended  on  the  detergent 
package.  

Warning: 

To prevent the lock nuts from 

being damaged, do not use tools to loosen 
them. 

 

Warning: 

Damaged power cables must be 

replaced by an Authorized Service Agent.  

 

Never 

move the product without the 

transportation safety bolts properly fixed in 
place!  

 

Warning: 

Packaging 

materials 

are 

dangerous  to  children.  Keep  packaging 
materials in a safe place away from reach of 
the children.
