3 Initial preparations for
washing
Preparing clothes for washing
Laundryitemswithmetalattachmentssuch
as,bras,beltbucklesandmetalbuttons
willdamagethemachine.Removemetal
attachmentsorplacetheitemsinaclothing
bag,pillowcase,orsomethingsimilar.
• Sortthelaundryaccordingtotype
offabric,color,anddegreeofsoiling
andpermissiblewatertemperature.
Alwaysfollowtheadviceonthe
garmentlabels.
• Placesmallitemslikeinfants’socks
andnylonstockings,etc.inalaundry
bag,pillowcaseorsomethingsimilar.
Thiswillalsosaveyourlaundryfrom
gettinglost.
• Wash“machinewashable”or“hand
washable”labeledproductsonlywith
anappropriateprogram.
• Donotwashcolorsandwhites
together.New,darkcoloredcottons
mayreleasealotofdye.Washthem
separately.
• Useonlydyes/colorchangersand
limeremoverssuitableformachine
wash.Alwaysfollowtheinstructions
onthepackaging.
• Washtrousersanddelicateclothes
turnedinsideout.
Correct load capacity
CPleasefollowtheinformationinthe
"ProgramSelectionTable".Washing
resultswilldegradewhenthe
machineisoverloaded.
Loading door
Thedoorlocksduringprogramoperation
andtheDoorLockedSymbollightsup.The
doorcanbeopenedwhenthesymbolfades

Detergents and softeners
Detergent Drawer
Thedetergentdraweriscomposedofthree
compartments:
Thedetergentdispensermaybeintwo
differenttypesaccordingtothemodelof
yourmachine.
–(I)forprewash
–(II)formainwash
-(III)siphon
–( )forsoftener
Detergent, softener and other cleaning
agents
Adddetergentandsoftenerbeforestarting
thewashingprogram.
Neveropenthedetergentdispenserdrawer
whilethewashingprogramisrunning!
Whenusingaprogramwithoutpre-wash,
nodetergentshouldbeputintothepre-
washcompartment(Compartmentno.I).
Detergent quantity
Theamountofwashingdetergenttobe
useddependsontheamountoflaundry,
thedegreeofsoilingandwaterhardness.
• Donotuseamountsexceeding
thequantitiesrecommendedon
thepackagetoavoidproblemsof
excessivefoam,poorrinsing,financial
savingsandfinally,environmental
protection.
• Neverexceedthe(>max<)level
marking;otherwise,thesoftenerwill
bewastedwithoutbeingused.
• Donotuseliquiddetergentifyou
wanttowashusingthetimedelay
