Operating Instructions
1 Safety
Prior to using for the first time
• Follow the ”Instructions for installation and connection”.
• 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.
• Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use in domestic
washing machines.
• 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 ap-
pliances. Do not 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!
General safety
• Repairs to the washing machine must only be carried out by qualified
service engineers.

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.
5
• 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.
• Small animals can nibble at the cables and water hoses. Danger of electric shock and danger of water damage! Keep small animals away from
the washing machine.

1) In the case of excessively large volume washing of a fleecy nature, e.g. terry towelling, flannelette,
it may be that the drum is already full before the maximum load is reached.
2) Recommended load for short progammes is 2,5kg; full loading is possible however with somewhat
reduced cleaning results.
3) STAIN can only be selected with wash temperatures of 40°C and above, as stain treatment products are only effective at higher temperatures.
