Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the machine from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Disposing of your old machine
Electrical and electronic machines
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain materials which, if handled
or disposed of incorrectly could be
potentially hazardous to human health
and to the environment. They are,
however, essential for the correct
functioning of your machine. Please do
not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
Energy saving tips
Energy and water consumption
–Water consumption and energy
usage are determined by the size of
the load.
To make the most out of your
machine load the maximum dry load
for the programme you are using.
Detergent
–Do not exceed the amounts of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer on the packaging.
– Reduce the amount of detergent for
smaller loads.
When drying with a tumble dryer
Selecting the highest possible spin
speed for the wash programme will
save energy when drying in a tumble
dryer afterwards.

Brief instructions
The headings numbered A,B,C,...
show the operating sequence and can
be used as brief instructions.
ASort the items to be washed
,Foreign objects (e.g. nails,
coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause
damage to textiles and to
components in the machine.
,Do not use solvent-based
cleaning agents in this machine.
Preparing mops, cloths etc
^Shake mops, cloths and pads out
well to get rid of coarse soiling before
placing them in the drum.
Sorting laundry
^Empty all pockets.
^Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should
be treated as soon as possible,
preferably whilst still fresh. Spillages
should be carefully dabbed off using
a soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub!
^Sort the laundry by colour and by
care label. Most garments have a
textile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Dark textiles often contain excess dye
and should be washed separately
several times before being included in
a mixed load. Always wash whites and
coloureds separately.
Do not wash any items in this machine
which are specified by the
manufacturer as not washable on the
care label. (hsymbol)
How to wash correctly

BLoad the drum
^Switch the machine on with the K
button.
^Press the Door button and open the
drum door.
^Place mops, cloths and pads loosely
in the drum.
^Unfold the laundry and load loosely
in the drum. Mixing both large and
small items gives better wash results
and also helps distribute the load
evenly during spinning.
The most efficient use of energy and
water is achieved when a full load is
washed. However, do not overload as
this causes creases and reduces
cleaning efficiency.
^Shut the door with a gentle swing.
Make sure that no items are caught
between the drum door and seal.

DAdd detergent
Take the level of soiling and water
hardness into account when
determining the amount of detergent to
dispense.
Too little detergent results in:
–Laundry not getting properly clean,
and with time maybe becoming grey
and hard to the touch.
–Greasy particles clinging to laundry.
–Limescale deposits on the heater
elements.
Too much detergent results in:
– Excessive foam which causes a low
level of agitation and poor wash,
rinse and spin results.
– A burden to the environment.
See "Detergent" for further information.
^Pull out the detergent drawer and
add detergent to the compartments
as follows:
i= Detergent for the pre-wash
(1/4of the total amount
recommended).
j= Detergent for the main wash
§= Fabric conditioner or liquid
starch
^Close the detergent drawer.
The §compartment is not used
during Disinfection programmes. Do
not put anything in it.
This machine can be connected to
an external dispensing system for
dispensing liquid agents (see
"Detergent - External dispensing
system").
How to wash correctly
19

EStart the programme
The Start button will flash as soon as a
programme can be started.
^Press the Start button.
The Start button will now light up.
If delay start has not been selected, the
estimated programme duration will
appear in the display. This will count
down in one minute steps. During the
first 10 minutes the machine measures
how much water is being absorbed by
the laundry. The programme duration
may be shorter depending on this
absorbency rate.
The programme sequence is also
shown in the display. The machine lets
you know which section of the
programme has been reached.
FUnload the drum
At the end of the programme, the drum
continues to turn at intervals for up to
30 minutes to maintain uniform residual
moisture throughout the load and to
help prevent creasing (anti-crease
phase). The door can be opened and
items removed at any time during the
anti-crease phase.
The machine will switch off
automatically 15 minutes after the
end of the anti-crease phase. You will
need to press the Kbutton to switch
it back on again.
^Press the Door button to open the
drum door.
^Remove the laundry.
Check that all items have been
removed from the drum. Items left in
the drum could discolour other items
in the next wash or become
discoloured themselves.
^Check the folds in the door seal for
any small articles, e.g. buttons, which
might be lodged there.
^Turn the programme selector to
Finish.
^Close the drum door. Otherwise there
is the danger of objects being placed
inadvertently in the drum. If these
remained unnoticed and were
washed in the next load, they could
damage the laundry.
^Switch the machine off with the K
button.
