•Use a detergent dose adapted to the water hardness (see «proportioning of detergents» section) and to the amount of washing and how dirty it is.

How to do a wash ?

Before the first wash in your washing machine, we recommend that you should do a preliminary wash at 95°C with detergent but without any washing to clean the tub.

Loading the washing

•Lift the machine cover.

•Open the drum by pressing on the locking button A; the two flaps automatically separate.

•Insert the washing, close the drum and the cover of your washing

machine.

Detergents

Warning : before you close the cover of your washing machine, make sure that the drum door is properly closed:

•the two flaps latched together, •the locking button A extended.

Your washing machine has been produced in order to reduce water and detergents consumptions, so you can reduce the doses recommended by detergent manufacturers. Pour the powder

detergent dose into the wash compartment and into the prewash compartment if you chose the «prewash» option. Pour in the

softener into the compartment. If you are using a different type of detergent, refer to the «detergents and additives» section in the washing guide.
