Before the first wash
1.Open the detergent dispenser drawer.
2.Pour about 1 litre of water through the detergent dispenser drawer into the washing machine.
This closes the water container when the next programme is started and the economy valve can function properly.
3.In order to remove any residues from the drum and water container which may have been left during manufacturing, perform the first wash cycle without any washing in the machine. Programme: COTTONS/LINEN 60, press TIME SAVER, add 1/4 of a measuring cup of washing powder.
Preparing and sorting washing
Preparing washing
•Empty 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 sensitive and small items in a net or a pillow case, e.g. net curtains, tights, 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 care symbol G(= do not wash!) in the washing machine.

3.Push the door shut firmly. Door catch must audibly click shut.
Adding detergent/additives
Warning! Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use in domestic washing machines.
1 For USA and Canada only!
Important! Only LOW-SUDSING detergent suitable for a front-loading washing machine can be used in this machine. This machine can heat the water up to 95 degrees celsius, or 200 degrees fahrenheit, and care should be taken to ensure that the correct washing powder is used. If you have any doubt, check with your dealer or the distributor. WARRANTY AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARE VOIDED IF A LOW SUDSING DETERGENT IS NOT USED.
Dose detergent and additives according to the instructions of the detergent and additive manufacturers. Follow the advice on the packaging.
11
Dosing depends upon:
–the washing’s degree of soiling,
–the size of the load
–the degree of hardness of the water supply.
•If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the detergent that is recommended for a full load.
•From water hardness 2 (= medium) upwards, water softener should be used. Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness 1 (= soft). Your local water company will be able to give you information about the water hardness in your area.
1.Pull the detergent dispenser drawer out as far as the stop.
2.Add the detergent/additives.
3.Push the drawer in fully.
