Before using the machine for the first
time ensure that it is correctly
installed and connected. See
"Installation and connection". Also
check that the drain filter is securely
tightened to prevent the risk of water
leaks during use.
For safety reasons, spinning is not
possible until the machine has been
prepared for using for the first time. To
activate the spinning function you must
run a wash programme without laundry
and without detergent.
Using detergent could result in an
excessive build-up of foam.
This also activates the ball valve. The
ball valve prevents detergent escaping
from the suds container into the sump
during a wash programme, thus making
maximum use of the detergent.

Press the
I-On/0-Off
button in.
If the washing machine is being
switched on for the first time, the
welcome screen will appear.
The welcome screen will appear in
the display every time the machine is
switched on until a programme
lasting longer than 1 hour has been
completed.
Setting the language
You will be asked to select the
language you require for the display. It
is possible to change the language at
any time via the programmable
functions.

Reminder to remove transit bars
To avoid the risk of damage, the
transit bars must be removed before
the machine is used for the first time.
See "Installation and connection" for
instructions on how to do this.

After removing the transit bars (if this
has not already been done by your
fitter), press the
Start/Stop
button.
Running your first programme

any laundry and without detergent.
