Operating Instructions
1 Safety
Prior to using the appliance for the first time
•Follow the “Installation and connection instructions”.
•If the appliance is delivered in the winter months when there are minus temperatures: store the washing machine at room temperature for 24 hours before using for the first time.
Correct use
•The washing machine is only designed for the washing of normal domestic laundry at home.
•Additions or modifications to the washing machine are not permitted.
•Only use detergents/conditioners that are suitable for use in domestic washing machines.
•The washing must not contain any flammable solvent. The risk of explosion exists.
•Do not use the washing machine for dry cleaning.
•Dyes/colour removers may only be used in the washing machine, if the manufacturer of these products expressly permits this. We cannot accept liability for any damage arising.
Child safety
•Keep packaging away from children. There is a risk of suffocation.
•Children often do not recognise the hazards associated with electrical appliances. Don’t allow children to use the washing machine unsupervised.
•Make sure that children and pets don’t climb into the drum of the washing machine. The risk of death exists.
5
General safety
•Repairs to the washing machine may only be carried out by qualified/ authorised service engineers.
•Never use the appliance when the electrical cable is damaged or the control panel, worktop or plinth area are damaged to such an extent that the inside of the appliance is openly accessible.
•Switch off the washing machine prior to cleaning it and carrying out maintenance. In addition, remove the power plug from the power point or – if the appliance has been hard-wired – switch off the cutout in the fuse box or completely remove the fuse.
•If operation is stopped, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply and turn off the tap.
•Never remove the power plug from the power point by pulling on the cable. Always pull the plug.
•Multiway-plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used.
Resulting overheating may constitute a fire hazard.
•Never wash the washing machine down with a water jet. Danger of electric shock.
•When using wash programmes with high temperatures the glass in the door will become hot. Do not touch it!
•Before emergency emptying of the appliance, before cleaning the drain pump or opening the door in an emergency, let the water cool down.
•Small animals can nibble on electrical cables and water hoses. This can constitute a risk of electrocution and water damage. Keep small animals away from the washing machine.

Before the first wash
1.Open the detergent drawer.
2.Pour approx. 2 litres of water through the detergent drawer into the washing machine.

Preparing and sorting washing
Preparing washing
•Empty the pockets. Remove foreign bodies (e.g. coins, paper clips, nails, etc.).
•Do up zips, button up covers to prevent damage to washing.
•Remove the runners from net curtains or cover them with a net or a bag.
•Wash delicate and small items in a net/pillowcase, e. g. net curtains, tights, small socks, handkerchiefs, bras.
Important: Bras and other items containing wires should only be washed in a net bag. The wires can work loose and damage the appliance.
Sorting washing
•By colour: Wash white and coloured washing separately. Washing can run.
•By temperature, type of washing and care symbol.
Important: Do not wash fabrics with the Gcare symbol (= do not wash!) in the washing machine.

Adding detergent/conditioner
Important: Only use detergents/conditioners that are suitable for use in household washing machines.
Add detergent/conditioner in accordance with the detergent/conditioner manufacturer’s instructions. Observe instructions on the packaging.
The amount of detergent used depends on:
–the degree of soiling,
–the load size
–the hardness of the tap water.
•If the manufacturer does not make any recommendations with regard to small volumes of washing: For a half-load use a third less, and for a very small load use only the half the amount of detergent that is recommended for a full load.
•Water softener should be used from water hardness range 2 (=medium). The amount of detergent used can then always be that as for
11
hardness range 1 (=soft). Your local water company will provide you with information about water hardness in your area.
1.Pull out the detergent drawer as far as it will go.
2.Add the detergent/conditioner.
3.Push the detergent drawer in fully.
