For your continued safety and to
reduce the risk of injury or electric
shock, please follow all the safety
precautions listed below.
WARNING!
• If you will not be using the
washing machine for a while
such as when you go on holiday,
disconnect the plug from the
mains supply and turn o the
water supply to the washing
machine. This is particularly
important if there is no drainage
around the washing machine.
• If the water supply is left on,
water pressure may build up and
cause a leak.
General Use
• Transit bolts are used to transport
the washing machine. You should
remove these using a spanner or
similar tool before you install the
washing machine. If you do not, it
will cause strong vibrations when
the washing machine is spinning.
• Do not install your washing
machine anywhere that is damp
or exposed to the weather. If you
do, it may cause an electric shock,
re, failure or deterioration.
• Do not pour water directly onto
any part of the washing machine.
It may cause a short circuit or
electric shock.
• Keep burning objects such as
candles or cigarettes, away from
the washing machine. They may
cause a re or damage.
• Keep ammable substances
well away from the washing
machine – for example kerosene,
gasoline, benzene, paint thinner
and alcohol, or clothing soaked
with these. They may cause an
explosion or a re.
• This washing machine is only
suitable for washing textiles
labelled ‘washing machine
washable’.
• Do not connect the washing
machine to hot water. The
washing machine works with
cold water only.
• Before you start using the
washing machine, turn the tap on
to check that the hose is properly
connected. If it’s not, there may
be a water leak.
• Do not put too much laundry
or detergent into the washing
machine. It may cause issues with
the washing machine or laundry.
• Be careful not to get your laundry
caught in the door when you
close it. This could cause a water
leak or damage your laundry.
• This washing machine is for
household (domestic) use only.
Safety Warning

Power Source and Cable
• Use an independent household
dedicated mains socket, rated at
least 13 Amp 220V to 240V AC. If
the washing machine is plugged
in with other appliances, it may
overheat the socket and cause a
re.
• Make sure the mains plug is
pushed rmly into the socket. A
loose connection may overheat
and cause electrical shock or a
re.
• Check the mains lead and mains
plug for any damage. If the mains
cable is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly
qualied persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
• Unplug the mains lead when
cleaning the washing machine.
• Do not touch the mains lead or
mains plug with wet hands. It
may cause an electric shock.
• Check the mains plug regularly
for dirt. If dirt accumulates on the

To prevent this, unplug the cable
and clean the mains plug with a
dry rag.
• If you disconnect the mains plug,
hold onto the mains plug not
the cable. Pulling the cable may
cause an electric shock or a re.
• Do not use a mains plug adaptor
or extension cable. It may
overheat and cause a re.
• Make sure your home voltage
matches the voltage displayed on
the washing machine. If you are
not sure, contact an electrician.
• The mains plug must remain
accessible to allow disconnection
or an all pole switch must be
incorporated in the xed wiring
in accordance with the wiring
regulations.
To Prevent Injury / Damage
• Do not climb on the washing
machine. You may hurt yourself
or damage the washing machine.
• When opening and closing the
door ensure you keep ngers
away from the door hinge, or this
could lead to injury.
• Check your washing for objects
such as nails, pins, coins, clips etc.
They could damage your laundry
or the washing machine.
• To prevent any large, heavy
objects (e.g., buckles, large
buttons, etc.) from hitting the
glass door, turn your clothing
inside out or remove the heavy
objects. They could damage your
laundry or the washing machine.
• Do not wash, rinse or spin water-
proof sheets or clothing. These
may cause vibration or washing
machine failure during spin-
drying, which could lead to injury,
damage to the washing machine
or damage due to water leaking.
• Be careful when draining hot
water or any detergent from the

Preparation
Read the following to understand how best to prepare your laundry for washing.
Organising Laundry
• Read the washing label on each garment to help you sort your washing into different loads.
• Sort the laundry by colour, type of fabric and by how soiled it is. This will help you choose
the correct programme and temperature for each wash.
• Do not exceed the maximum load! See the programme selection table for the maximum
load for the programme you require.
Preparing Laundry
• Treat stains before washing.
• Some items should be put into a cleaning net before going into

clothing to prevent damage.
• Check that pockets do not contain any objects which may
damage your clothes and the washing machine.
• Tie up any loose strings on laundry, close zippers and reverse
clothing with zips inside out.
• To prevent any large, heavy objects (e.g., buckles, large buttons,
etc.) from hitting the glass door, turn your clothing inside out, or
remove the heavy objects. These could damage your laundry or
the washing machine.
• Remove any surplus hair, animal fur, sand, and other materials
with a brush before washing.
• If clothes have raised fabric turn them inside out.
• Clothes that are not colour fast should be washed separately.
• Insert your clothes into the washing machine. Close the washing
machine door. Ensure that you do not trap any items of clothing
between the loading door and the rubber seal.
Adding Detergent and Softener
• Add detergent into the appropriate dispenser.
• Apply softener before you start washing.
• Apply detergent and softener according to the washing
amount, the soiling level, the water hardness in your area
and the manufacturer’s instructions of these products.
• For slightly dirty clothes, put a small amount of detergent
in compartment (II) of the detergent drawer.
• For excessively dirty clothes, put ¼ of the detergent to
be used in compartment (I) of the detergent drawer and the
remaining amount in compartment (II).

• If you forget to add detergent, you can drain the washing machine by running a drain only
programme. Then you can add detergent and start the programme again. Detergent only
reaches the drum when water flushes through the detergent drawer.
• To prevent powder detergent staying in the drawer, dry the inside of the drawer with a cloth.
Make sure the powder isn’t lumpy when you add it into the drawer.
• If the rinse cycle isn’t removing all the detergent from your wash, use less detergent.
• Softener should not exceed the MAX level in the compartment.
• Wash out unused softener with a splash of water or a damp cloth after the programme has
finished.

How to Use Laundry Starch
Synthetic laundry starch is a stiffening agent. Follow the laundry starch manufacturer’s
instructions.
• To use laundry starch, simply add it to the softener compartment, next to where you add
detergent. It will automatically be applied to your clothes as part of the final rinsing cycle.
• If it’s hard to pour, you can dilute the starch slightly with water before adding it to the
softener compartment. Make sure you don’t fill the compartment over the MAX level.
After using starch, clean the detergent drawer, especially the softener cover. Then
remove any excess starch in the drum, run a “Quick” programme without detergent.
