3. Load the washing machine

Open the door



Reach under the door grip and pull
the door open.

Check the drum for pets or foreign
objects before loading it with
laundry.

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 creases.



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.

Tip:

Please note the maximum load for

the different wash programmes. The
relevant programme load is always
shown in the display when you select a
programme.

Close the door



Make sure that no items are caught
between the door and the seal.



Shut the door with a gentle swing.
