Before washing
Sort the linen according on the temperature and the instructions of the manufacturer of the fabrics.
Check if there aren‘t any strange objects between the linen like nails, screws, needles, etc. in order
not to damage the washer-extractor or the linen. Turn sleeves of shirts, blouses, etc. inside out.
To get a better washing result, you have to unfold the fabrics and mix the bigger and smaller pieces
of fabrics.
CAUTION!
The optimal washing load is determined by the filling factor. The proper filling factor is determined
by the type of linen and other factors. Cotton textiles normally require a filling factor of 1:10-1:13,
which is a full drum load. Put the linen in the drum depending on the maximum capacity of the washer.
Do not overload the washer extractor. Overloading the machine can lead to a bad wash result.
Half washing loads can obstruct a proper function. Synthetics and blended fabrics usually require
a filling factor of 1:18-1:20, which is half drum load. Loading more will reduce the wash result and
can damage the linen.
Opening the drum door
Open the door by pulling on the door handle.
Placing the laundry into the machine
Insert the laundry into the drum.
Closing the drum door
Close the door by applying moderate pressure on the door handle and simultaneous partial turning of the door
handle to the left. It is not necessary to turn the handle completely around. Otherwise slipping of the safety
system would occur. When the machine is operating, the safety system serves as a protection against
violent handling and the possibility of the door lock sustaining damage. Before you put the washing machine
in operation make sure the door is closed properly.
Program selections
Choose one of the available wash programs, best corresponding to the quality of the garments and allowed
wash temperature in the wash load.
oThe Xcontrol version : choose the wash program by the arrow buttons “ up” and “ down”.
oThe Xcontrol Plus version : enter the wash program number utilizing the numeric keypad.
oThe selection of the program determines the temperature and the time for washing and rinsing.
NOTE!
