DIAGRAM-2
DIAGRAM-1 DIAGRAM-3
ADJUSTMENT OF FEET
•
••
•Do not install your machine on rugs or similar surfaces.
•
••
•For your machine to work silently and without any vibration, it should
be settled on a flat, non-slippery and tough ground.
32

•
••
•You can adjust the balance of your machine from its feet.
•
••
•First, loosen the plastic adjustment nut.
•
••
•Adjust by rotating the feet upwards or downwards.
•
••
•After the balance has been reached, tighten the plastic adjustment
nut again by rotating it upwards.
•
••
•Never put cartons, wooden blocks or similar materials under the
machine to balance the irregularities on the level of the ground.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
•
••
•Your washing machine works with 220-240V and 50Hz.
•
••
•A special grounded plug has been attached to the network cable of
your washing machine. This plug must definitely be inserted to a
grounded socket with 10 ampere. The fuse flow value of the
electricity line attached to this should also be 10 ampere. If you have
no such sockets and fuses in your house, let it be made by a qualified
electrician.
•Our company will not be responsible for any damages that may
occur as a result of usage without grounding.
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
•Depending on the features your machine,may be with single water
inlet(cold) or double water inlet (cold/hot). The white headed hose is
for cold water inlet and red headed hose is for hot water inlet (valid
for machines with hot&cold water inlet).
•To prevent leakage from the connection joints, 1 (valid for cold water
inlet) or 2 (valid for machines with hot&cold water inlet) seals are
included in the hose packing. Fit these seals at the end of water inlet
hoses on the tap side.
•Connect the white headed hose to the water inlet valve with white
filter and connect the red headed hose to the water inlet valve with
red filter (latter is valid in machines with hot&cold water inlet). Tighten
the plastic parts of the connections with your hand.Please call a
qualified plumber for safer connections.
33

•Water pressure of 1-10 bars from your tap will enable your machine
to work more efficiently.(1 bar pressure means water flow of more
than 8 liters in 1 minute from a fully opened tap).
•After connections are completed, check for the non-leakage of the
connection joints by turning on your tap completely.
•Be sure that water inlet hoses are not folded, broken or crushed.
•Mount the water inlet hoses to a 3”/4, geared water tap.
Cold water inlet (White filter valve)
Hot water inlet (Red filter valve)
WATER DRAIN CONNECTION
•Be sure that water inlet hoses are not folded, twisted, crushed or
elongated by stretching.
•Water drain hose should be mounted at a height of minimum 60 cm,
maximum 100 cm from the ground.
•The end of the water drain hose may directly be fitted to the dirty
water outlet hole or a special apparatus mounted on the outlet
bracket of the wash-stand.
•Never attempt to extend the water drain hose by adding extra parts.

SECTION 5: WASHING YOUR LAUNDRY
•Plug the machine.
•Open the tap water.
First wash cycle
There may be water left inside your machine after factory tests and trials.It is
recommended that the first wash cycle should be made without any laundry
so that carry out this water; pour half a measuring cup of normal allpurpose
detergent into compartment 2 and select cotton program at 90°C.
BEFORE WASHING
Discrimination of your laundry
•Discriminate your clothes according to their types (cotton, synthetic,
sensitive, woolen, etc.),washing temperatures and level of dirtiness.
•Never wash your white and coloured clothes together.
•Since your new coloured clothes may shed dye on the first wash,
wash them separately.
•Be careful that no metal pieces are found on or in the pockets of your
clothes, remove if there is any.
•Zip and button your clothes.
•Remove the plastic or metal hooks of the curtains and laces or place
them inside a washing bag and tie.
39

•Pull the textiles like trousers,knitted fabric,t-shirt and sweat shirt
inside out.
•Wash your small clothes like socks and handkerchiefs in a washing
bag.
Wash up tol 90 ˚C Wash up to 60 ˚C Wash up to 30 ˚C Not washable in
washingmachine
Placement of the clothes into the machine
•Open the door of your machine.
•Fill your clothes in your machine in a well-spread manner.
•Place each cloth separately.
•When you shut the door of your machine, be careful that no cloth is
jammed between the cover and the gasket.
•Shut the door of your machine tightly otherwise your machine will not
start the washing process.
Filling detergent in the machine
The quantity of the detergent that you will fill in your machine depends on the
following criteria:
•Your detergent consumption will change according to the dirtiness
level of your clothes. For your slightly dirty clothes, do not pre-wash
and put a small amount of detergent in the compartment no.2 of the
detergent drawer.
•For your excessively dirty clothes, select a program with pre-
washing, fill ¼ portion of the detergent you will put in compartment
1 in the detergent drawer and the remaining portion in compartment
2.
•In your machine,use the detergents developed especially for
automatic washing machines. The quantities that will be used for
your clothes are written on the packing of the detergents.
•As the hardness of your water increases, the amount of the
detergent to be consumed will also increase.
•As the amount of your clothes increases, the amount of the
detergent to be consumed will also increase.
•Fill your softener in the softener compartment in your detergent
drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, the softener will
diffuse in the washing water via the siphon.
•The softeners with high density should be diluted with some water
before filling in the drawer. That is because the softener with high
density obstructs the siphon and prevents the flow of the softener.
40

•You can use fluid detergents in all programs without pre-washing.
For this, mount the fluid detergent level plate in the second
compartment of the detergent drawer and arrange the amount of
fluid detergent according to the levels on this plate.
