Sorting the Laundry
Sort laundry according to type of
fabric, color, level of dirtiness and
allowed washing temperature. Do
not wash white laundry together with
colored ones. Remove hard parts like
belt, wrist button, curtain buttons, etc.
or place laundry in a cloth bag. Empty
pockets. Zip up and button up. Very
tiny laundry like baby clothes may get
into inside of drum, midst of bellow,
pump filter, hose, etc. in order to pre-
vent this it is advised to place such
laundry in a special laundry string bag
or large laundry. See practical and
useful information section for soiled
laundry. Your machine can wash “Ma-
chine Wash” or “No-matting” labeled
woolen with special woolen program.
Delicate laundry with “Do not wash”
or “hand wash” label (silk, cashmere,
pure wool, etc.) can be washed in the
special hand-wash program.
Opening front door

Your machine’s front door is designed
for opening during only machine
is not operating. If the led displays
“door” than door can open.
Loading machine with laun-
dry
Fill the machine by unfolding and
not squeezing laundry. Place hand-
woven garments inside-out to the
machine. Make sure there is no
laundry jammed between bellow and
front-door.
Close the loading door by pushing.
If loading door is not properly closed
machine will not start.
Selection of detergent and
softener
Quantity of the detergent used
depends on hardness of water and
how soiled laundry is. Recommended
values are indicated on the package.
If your laundry is low soiled and/or
hardness of water is low use less de-
tergent as indicated on the package.
Otherwise it may result in excessive
foam.
You should use detergent specially
designed for automatic washing
machines. Avoid using bleach product
containing sulfur or chlorine. Place
powder detergent and softener in
appropriate drawer compartment and
close detergent dispenser.

Installation

18
water inlet models, 2 for single water
inlet models) on hose or plastic bag
for eliminating any leakage in con-
nections points. These seals must be
used on each side of the connection.
Seals on machine side must be con-
nected filter cannal.
After connecting the hose, check
all connections for leaks In order to
eliminate any risk due to water leak-
age keep the taps off when machine
is not used.
Your machine will operate efficiently if
the water from tap is minimum 1 and
maximum 10 bars. Practically 1 bar
means 8 liters of water in one minute
when tap is fully on.
Connect hose to the machine.
Tighten bolts with hand power, do not
use spanner.
Double inlet models can be used with
blind cap as a single inlet machine.
Connect blind cap to hot water inlet.
Seal must be for stopping water leak-
age.
Do not connect single inlet machine
to hot water. If machine is connected
with Y part to a double inlet and over
40˚C for single inlet machines, ma-
chine may switch to protection mode.
b) Water drain hose
Water drain hose could be placed
either at the side of the bath tub, or
directly to the drain. The hose should
not be bent. Water drain hose should
be secured with the holder so that it
would not fall down on the ground.
The hose should be placed between
40 and 100 cm. from the ground.
Water drain hose could be placed
directly to the drain water inlet.
