 Important information  
Washing drying preparing/Protecting the laundry and the machine
 Empty pockets.
 Look out for metal items (paperclips, etc.).
 Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles, e.g. Jersey garments, T-shirts or sweatshirts should
be turned inside out.
 Ensure that underwired bras are machine washable.
 Wash delicates in a net/bag (tights, curtains, underwired bras).
 Fasten zips, do up any buttons.
 Brush sand out of pockets and collars.
 Remove curtain hooks or place curtains in a net/bag.
 Use only tumble-dry textiles if you select drying.
 Before tumble-drying, handwash items should be spun using the appropriate spin speed.
 Remove as much water as possible before tumble-drying. Recommended spin speed for
cottons is more than 1000 rpm; for easy-care is more than 800 rpm.
 In order to ensure uniform drying, sort the items according to fabric type and degree
ofâdrying required.
 Items which require ironing do not have to be ironed immediately after being tumble-dried.
It is a good idea to fold or roll them together for a while, so that any remaining moisture
isâevenly distributed.
To achieve good drying performance, dry quilt covers, terry towels or other large textile
items individually. Terry towels not more than 4 pieces (or 3 kg).

 Important information  
Washing drying preparing/Protecting the laundry and the machine
 Empty pockets.
 Look out for metal items (paperclips, etc.).
 Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles, e.g. Jersey garments, T-shirts or sweatshirts should
be turned inside out.
 Ensure that underwired bras are machine washable.
 Wash delicates in a net/bag (tights, curtains, underwired bras).
 Fasten zips, do up any buttons.
 Brush sand out of pockets and collars.
 Remove curtain hooks or place curtains in a net/bag.
 Use only tumble-dry textiles if you select drying.
 Before tumble-drying, handwash items should be spun using the appropriate spin speed.
 Remove as much water as possible before tumble-drying. Recommended spin speed for
cottons is more than 1000 rpm; for easy-care is more than 800 rpm.
 In order to ensure uniform drying, sort the items according to fabric type and degree
ofâdrying required.
 Items which require ironing do not have to be ironed immediately after being tumble-dried.
It is a good idea to fold or roll them together for a while, so that any remaining moisture
isâevenly distributed.
To achieve good drying performance, dry quilt covers, terry towels or other large textile
items individually. Terry towels not more than 4 pieces (or 3 kg).
Before using for the first time
Do not put any laundry in the washer dryer. Turn on the tap, pour ½ measuring cup
of detergent into dispenser II. Set the Retirar pelusas/fios 40 °C programme and

Heavy Load less laundry. Prewash.
If required, pretreat stains. Select Algodón/Algodão eco
programme or (intensive) additional function.
Soaking Load laundry of the same colour.
Pour soaking agent/detergent into dispenser II according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Set Algodón/Algodão 30 °C programme and select Inicio/Pausa+Carga.
After approx. 10 minutes, select Inicio/Pausa+Carga. After the required soaking time, reselect
Inicio/Pausa+Carga if the programme is to be continued or change the programme.

fabric softener compartment according to the manufacturer's instructions (if necessary clean
it first).
Dyeing/bleaching
Dye should only be used in normal household quantities. Salt may damage stainless steel.
Always follow the dye manufacturer's instructions. Do not bleach laundry in the washing

 Machine overload: please follow the load recommendation
in the progamme table and load display, do not overload

ʑA small amount of water is
observed dripping on the
dried laundry load when the

 Drying time is shortened with a small load. Some residual
moisture may remain in the drying system. Opening the door
