3. Loading the washing machine

Opening the door



Take hold of the door and pull it
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 in
the drum.

Mixing both large and small items
gives better wash results and also
helps distribute the load evenly during
spinning.

Useful 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.

Closing the door



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



Shut the door with a gentle swing.
