Loading the laundry
1. Open the machine lid by pulling it upwards.
2. Open the drum
- by pushing the drum flap release (for “1a”
and “1b”; models as shown on “1a” have
a fixed drum flap release which will not
compress when pushed).
- by holding the rear drum flap, sliding back
the slider into arrow direction and pushing
the front flap towards the inside of the drum
until the closing mechanism releases (for “1c”).
3. Place the items of laundry into the drum one
by one. Do not exceed the maximum load
of the programmes indicated in the separate
programme chart.
- Overloading the machine will result in
unsatisfactory washing results and creased
laundry.
- Take care that the laundry does not
overhang the drum; if this is the case, push
the laundry down into the drum so that
there is enough free space to close the
drum flaps properly.
- Do not use the flaps to push the laundry
into the drum.
4. To close the drum, hold both flaps in the
middle again (picture “2”), the rear flap over
the front flap.
ATTENTION: make sure that the drum
flaps are properly locked - depending on the
model:
- the metal hook must be completely
hooked into the rear door flap - see picture
“2a”, or
- all metal hooks must be properly hooked
inside the rear door flap, and the button
must overlap the edge of the rear door flap
- see picture “2b”.
- the slider of the front flap must slightly
overlap the rear flap - see picture “2c”.
Check that no laundry gets stuck between the flaps,
or between flaps and drum.
