This washing machine has undergone
a complete functional test at the
factory and some residual water will
therefore remain in the drum from this
process.
For safety reasons, spinning is not
possible until the machine has been
prepared for use for the first time. To
activate the spinning function, you must
run a wash program without laundry
and without detergent.
Using detergent could result in an
excessive build-up of foam!
The ball valve is activated at the same
time. The ball valve prevents detergent
escaping from the suds container into
the sump during a wash program, thus
making maximum use of the detergent.
