Maximum load weights are given in the programme chart.
Loading the washing machine
Switch on the washing machine with the
button.
Pull the door handle to open the drum door.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum. Mixing both large
and small items gives better wash results and also helps distribute
the load evenly during spinning.
The most efficient use of energy and water is achieved when a full
load is washed. However, do not overload as this reduces cleaning
efficiency and causes creasing.
Closing the drum
door
Close the door by pressing it until the pre-latch engages.
Make sure that no items are caught between the drum door and
the seal.
The drum door engages, but does not lock yet. The drum door locks
automatically as soon as the machine starts.
