The washing must not contain any inflammable solutions. Danger of explosion!
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 be held responsible 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. Could endanger life!
5
General safety
Repairs to the washing machine must only be carried out by qualified service engineers.
Never use the washing machine if the mains cable is damaged; or if the control panel, work top or plinth area is damaged such that the inside of the appliance is freely accessible.
Switch off the washing machine before cleaning, maintenance and servicing. In addition, pull the mains plug out of the socket or – in the case of a permanent connection – switch off the cut-out in the fuse box or remove the screw fuse completely.
If operation is stopped, disconnect the appliance from the mains sup­ply and shut off the water tap.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable. Always pull the plug.
Multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used.
This could constitute a fire hazard through overheating.
Never wash the washing machine down with a water jet. Danger of electric shock!
In washing programmes with high temperatures the glass in the door gets 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.

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 cur-
tains, 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.

temperature too high
Adding detergent/additives
Important: Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use
in domestic washing machines. Dose detergent and additives according to the instructions of the de-
tergent and additive manufacturers. Follow the instructions on the packaging.
Dosing depends upon:
the washing’s degree of soiling,the size of the loadthe 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.
11
1. Pull the detergent dispenser drawer out as far as the stop.
2. Add the detergent/additives.
3. Push the drawer in fully.

Changing the spin speed/Selecting rinse hold
The washing machine suggests the maximum permitted speed that is suitable for the selected pro­gramme. You can reduce this speed:
Press the spin/ (RINSE HOLD) button a number of times until the desired indicator lights up.
3 The speed for the final spin can still be altered during the programme.
To do this:
1. Press the (START/PAUSE) button.
2. Change the spin speed.
3. Press the (START/PAUSE) button again.
(RINSE HOLD)
With (RINSE HOLD) the washing remains submerged in the final rinse water. No final spin takes place, but an intermediate spin does. The intermediate spin cycle is independent of the programme used and cannot be changed.
Selecting the programme options
If desired, press the programme op­tion button(s). The corresponding indicator lights up.
3 If ”Err” flashes in the multi-dis-
play, the programme option select­ed cannot be combined with the wash programme set.
EXTRA RINSE
Two additional rinse cycles will be carried out (e.g. in the case of sensi­tive skin) for the programmes ECO (ENERGY SAVING), (COTTONS/ LINEN), (DELICATES), (EASY-CARES) and l (EASY IRON).
QUICK WASH
Shortened wash programme for less soiled items.
13
PRE-WASH
Warm pre-wash before the main wash cycle which follows automati­cally; with intermediate spinning for (COTTONS/LINEN) and
(EASY-CARES), without intermediate spinning for (DELICATES).
STAIN
For heavily soiled or stained items. Stain treatment is rinsed in at an optimal time in the programme. Only for wash temperatures of 40° and upwards, as stain treatments are effective only at higher temperatures.
SENSITIVE
Increased rinse effectiveness due to an additional rinse cycle with a parallel decrease in drum movement (fabric care). Ideal if items must be washed frequently e.g. due to extra sensitive skin.

– has got onto the washing. Such stains should be washed out as quickly as possible and make sure that you are careful when using fabric conditioner.
After the last rinse foam can still be seen.
Modern detergents may create foam even in the last rinse cycle. The
washing is however sufficiently rinsed.
There are white residues on the washing.
This is due to the insoluble ingredients in modern detergents.
They are not caused by insufficient rinsing. Shake or brush the washing. If possible turn the washing inside out before washing. Check your choice of detergent. Especially with dark colours it is advisable to use liquid detergents.

and level. Do not install the appliance on carpets or on soft floor cov­erings.
29
The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be clean
and dry and free from coverings that move, so that the appliance does not slide.
If the location in which the appliance is to be installed is fitted with
small-format tiles, put a rubber mat (available in the shops) under the appliance.
If the appliance is to stand on a plinth:
In order for the appliance to be se­cure on the plinth, fixing plates*) must be mounted, into which the appliance is inserted.
If the appliance is to stand on floors that vibrate, e. g. floors of wooden joists with deal boards:

or a bath, secure the drain hose with the supplied elbow to stop it slipping. Otherwise the water run­ning out can force the hose out of the basin.
– When pumping the water out,
check that the water is running away fast enough.
Pumping heights over 1 m
The washing machine’s drain pump is able to pump water to a height of 1meter, calculated from the surface on which the appliance is installed.
