4.2 Preparing the machine
Make sure that the hoses are connected tightly. Plug in your
machine.Turn the tap on completely. Place the laundry in the
machine. Add detergent and fabric softener.
4.3 Programme selection
Select the programme suitable for the type, quantity
and soiling degree of the laundry in accordance with the
"Programme and consumption table" and the temperature
table below.
90˚C Heavily soiled white cottons and linens. (coffee table
covers, tableclothes, towels, bed sheets, etc.)
60˚C
Normally soiled, coloured, fade proof linens, cottons
or synthetic clothes (shirt, nightgown, pajamas, etc.)
and lightly soiled white linens (underwear, etc.)
40˚C-
30˚C- Cold
Blended laundry including delicate textile (veil
curtains, etc.), synthetics and woolens.
Select the desired programme with the Programme
Selection button.
Programmes are limited with the highest spin speed
appropriate for that particular type of fabric.
When selecting a programme, always consider the type
of fabric, colour, degree of soiling and permissible water
temperature.
Always select the lowest required temperature. Higher
temperature means higher power consumption.
For further programme details, see "Programme and
consumption table"
4.4 Main programmes
Depending on the type of fabric, use the following main
programmes.
• Cotton
Use this programme for your cotton laundry (such as bed
sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, towels, bathrobes,
underwear, etc.). Your laundry will be washed with vigorous
washing action for a longer washing cycle.
• Synthetics
Use this programme to wash your synthetic clothes (shirts,
blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). It washes with a
gentle action and has a shorter washing cycle compared to
the Cottons programme.
For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 40˚C programme
with prewash and anti-creasing functions selected. As their
meshed texture causes excessive foaming, wash the veils/
tulle by putting little amount of detergent into the main
wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the prewash
compartment.
• Woollen
Use this programme to wash your woolen clothes. Select
the appropriate temperature complying with the tags of your
clothes. Use appropriate detergents for woolens.
4.5 Additional programmes

model of the machine.
• Cotton Eco
You may wash your normally soiled durable cotton and
linen laundry in this programme with the highest energy
and water saving compared to all other wash programmes
suitable for cottons. Actual water temperature may differ
from the declared cycle temperature. Programme duration
may automatically be shortened during later stages of the
programme if you wash less amount (e.g. ½ capacity or
less) of laundry. In this case energy and water consumption
will be further decreased giving you the opportunity for a
more economical wash. This feature is available for certain
models having remaining time display.
• Delicate
Use this programme to wash your delicate clothes. It washes
with a gentle action without any interim spin compared to
the Synthetics programme.
• Hand Wash 20°C
Use this programme to wash your woolen/delicate clothes
that bear “not machine- washable” tags and for which hand
wash is recommended. It washes laundry with a very gentle
washing action to not to damage clothes.
• Daily Xpress
Use this programme to quickly wash your little amount of
lightly soiled cotton clothes.
• Xpress Super Short
Use this programme to wash your little amount of lightly
soiled cotton clothes in a short time.
• Dark Care
Use this programme to wash your dark coloured laundry, or
the coloured laundry that you do not want them get faded.
Washing is performed with less mechanical movements at
low temperature. It is recommended to use liquid detergent
or wool shampoo for dark coloured laundry.
• Mix 40
Use this programme to wash your cotton and synthetic
clothes together without sorting them.
• Shirts
Use this programme to wash the shirts made of cotton,
synthetic and synthetic blended fabrics together.
• Babyprotect+
Babyprotect+ 60°C programme is tested and approved

4.10 Auxiliary function selection
Use the following auxiliary functions according to your
daily needs. Select the desired auxiliary functions before
starting the programme. Furthermore, you may also select
or cancel auxiliary functions that are suitable to the running
programme without pressing the Start / Pause button when
the machine is operating. For this, the machine must be in
a step before the auxiliary function you are going to select
or cancel.
If the auxiliary function cannot be selected or canceled, light
of the relevant auxiliary function will blink 3 times to warn
the user.
Some functions cannot be selected together. If a second
auxiliary function conflicting with the first one is selected
before starting the machine, the function selected
first will be canceled and the second auxiliary function
selection will remain active. For example, if you want to
select Quick Wash after you have selected the Prewash,
Prewash will be canceled and Quick Wash will remain
active.
An auxiliary function that is not compatible with the
programme cannot be selected. (See “Programme and
consumption table”)
Auxiliary Function buttons may vary according to the
model of the machine.
• Pre-wash
A Prewash is only worthwhile for heavily soiled laundry. Not
using the Prewash will save energy, water, detergent and
time.
Prewash without detergent is recommended for tulle
and curtains.
• Quick Wash
This function can be used in Cottons and Synthetics
programmes. It decreases the washing times and also the
number of rinsing steps for lightly soiled laundry.
When you select this function, load your machine with
half of the maximum laundry specified in the programme
table.
• Extra Rinse
This function enables the machine to make another rinsing
in addition to the one already made after the main wash.
Thus, the risk for sensitive skins (babies, allergic skins, etc.)
to be effected by the minimal detergent remnants on the
laundry can be reduced.
• Pet hair removal
• Rinse Hold
If you are not going to unload your clothes immediately after
the programme completes, you may use rinse hold function
to keep your laundry in the final rinsing water in order to
prevent them from getting wrinkled when there is no water
in the machine. Press Start / Pause button after this process
if you want to drain the water without spinning your laundry.
Programme will resume and complete after draining the water.
If you want to spin the laundry held in water, adjust the Spin
Speed and press Start / Pause button.
The programme resumes. Water is drained, laundry is spun

Rinse steps are added to the normal programme. Thus, washing is
performed with more water (30%) and the pet hair is removed more
effectively.
Never wash your pets in the washing machine.
With the Delayed Start function the startup of the programme
may be delayed up to 19 hours. Delayed start time can be
increased by increments of 1 hour.

5.5 Draining remaining water and
cleaning the pump filter
The filter system in your machine prevents solid items
such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers clogging the pump
impeller during discharge of washing water. Thus, the water
will be discharged without any problem and the service life
of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter is clogged.
Filter must be cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 3
months. Water must be drained off first to clean the pump
filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g., when
moving to another house) and in case of freezing of the
water, water may have to be drained completely.
WARNİNG :Foreign substances left in the pump filter may
damage your machine or may cause noise problem.
In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge the water:
1. Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.
WARNİNG :Temperature of the water inside the machine
may rise up to 90 ºC.To avoid burning risk, filter must be
cleaned after the water in the machine cools down.
2. Open the filter cover.
.
3. Follow the below procedures in order to drain
water.
a. In order to collect the water to flow out of the
filter, place a large vessel in front of the filter.
b. Turn and loosen the pump filter until water starts
to flow (counterclockwise). Fill the flowing water
into the container you have placed in front of
the filter. Always keep a piece of cloth handy to
absorb any spilled water.
c When the water inside the machine is finished,
take out the filter completely by turning it.
4 Clean any residues inside the filter as well as
fibers, if any, around the pump impeller region.
5. Replace the filter.
6. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close
the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one
piece, seat the tabs in the lower part into their
places first, and then press the upper part to
close.
