•Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or dabbed with combustible or explosive substances like wax, oil, paint,
gasoline, alcohol, kerosene, and other flammable materials.
•Washing single clothes items may easily create big eccentricity and cause
alarm due to unbalance. Therefore it is suggested to add one or two more
laundry items to the wash so that spin can be done smoothly.
• The ambient temperature of the washing machine should be 5-40°C. If used under
0°C, the inlet valve and draining system may be damaged. If the machine is
installed under freezing conditions, it should be transferred to normal ambient
temperature to ensure the water supply hose and drain hose can unfreeze before
use.
• Please check your laundry care labels and the detergent use instructions before
wash. Use non-foaming or less-foaming detergent suitable for machine
washing properly.

Detergent Recommendation
OPERATION
Agglomerating or ropy detergent or additive can be diluted in some water
before pouring it into the detergent dispenser, to avoid its inlet to get blocked
and thus cause a water overflow.
• Please choose the suitable type of detergent to get a maximum of washing
performance and a minimum of water and energy consumption
• To achieve the best cleaning result a proper detergent dosing is important.
• Use a reduced detergent amount if the drum is not filled completely.
• Always adjust the amount of detergent to the water hardness, if your tap
water is soft, use less detergent.
• Dose according to how dirty your laundry is, less dirty clothes require less
detergent.
• Highly concentrated (compact detergent) requires particularly accurate
dosing.
Following symptoms are a sign of detergent overdosing:
- heavy foam formation
- poor washing and rinsing result
Following symptoms are a sign of detergent underdosing:
- laundry turns grey
- built-up of limescale deposits on the drum, the heating element and/or the
laundry
