Operation Overview
Using the Appliance
Before the first wash, select the
Cotton
wash
programme and add a half amount of the
detergent. Start the appliance without clothes. This
will remove possible residues and water from the
drum that may have been left during
manufacturing.
1
Sort clothes and load items.
• Sort clothes by fabric type, soil level, colour
and load size as needed. Open the door and
load items into the appliance.
CAUTION
• Before closing the door, ensure that all clothes
and items are inside the tub and not
overhanging on the rubber door seal where they
will become caught when the door is closed.
Failing to do so will cause damage to the door
seal and the clothes.
• Remove items from the flexible door seal gasket
to prevent clothing and door seal damage.
2
Add cleaning products or detergent and
softener.
• Add the proper amount of detergent to the
detergent dispenser. If desired, add bleach
or fabric softener to the appropriate areas of
the dispenser.
3
Turn on the appliance.
• Press the
Power
button to turn on the
appliance.
4
Choose the desired cycle.
• Press the cycle button repeatedly or turn the
cycle selector knob until the desired cycle is
selected.
• Now select a wash temperature and spin
speed. Pay attention to the fabric care label
of your clothes.
• Pressing the
Start/Pause
button without
selecting a programme will cause the
Cotton
programme to begin immediately,
using the default settings.
5
Begin cycle.
• Press the
Start/Pause
button to begin the
cycle. The appliance will agitate briefly
without water to measure the weight of the
load. If the
Start/Pause
button is not
pressed within a certain time, the appliance
will shut off and all settings will be lost.
6
End of cycle.
• When the cycle is finished, a melody will
sound. Immediately remove your clothing
from the appliance to reduce wrinkling.
Check around the door seal when removing
the load for small items that may be caught
in the seal.
