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.

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feature.

• Afterdrainingprocessiscompleted,
replacetheplugintotheendofthehose
andfitthehosebackintoitsplace.
Ifyourproductisnotsuppliedwithan
emergencydrainhose,dothefollowingas
showninthefigurebelow:
• Placealargecontainerinfrontofthefilter
toreceivewaterflowingfromthefilter.
• Loosenpumpfilter(anticlockwise)until
waterstartstoflowoutofit.Directthe
flowingwaterintothecontaineryouhave
placedinfrontofthefilter.Youcanusea
pieceofclothtoabsorbanyspilledwater.
• Whenthereisnowaterleft,turnthepump
filteruntilitiscompletelylooseandremove
it.
• Cleananyresiduesinsidethefilteras
wellasfibers,ifany,aroundthepropeller
