STUBBORN STAINS
For some stains, water and detergent is not sufficient. We recommend that you remove these stains before you put the items in the appliance. Special stain removers are available. Use the special stain remover that is ap­plicable to the type of stain and fabric.
DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES

• If your appliance has not the deter­gent dispenser with the flap device, add the liquid detergents with a dos­ing ball.
WATER HARDNESS
If the water hardness in your area is high or moderate, we recommend that you use a water softener for washing machines. In areas where the water hardness is soft it is not necessary to use a water softener. To know the water hardness in your area, contact your local water authority. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the products. Equivalent scales measure the water hardness:
• German degrees (°dH).
• French degrees (°TH).
• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - inter­national unit for the hardness of wa­ter).
• Clarke degrees.

the air circulation below the appli­ance.
5. Make sure that the appliance does
not touch the wall or other units.
6. Loosen the feet to adjust the level.

Water-stop device
The inlet hose has a water stop device. This device prevents water leaks in the hose because of its natural ageing. The red sector in the window «A» shows this fault . If this occur, close the water tap and contact the service centre to replace the hose.

WATER DRAINAGE
There are different procedures to con­nect the drain hose:
With the plastic hose guide.
• On the edge of a sink.
• Make sure that the plastic guide can­not move when the appliance drains. Attach the guide to the water tap or the wall.
• To a stand pipe with vent-hole. Refer to the illustration. Directly into
a drain pipe at a height of not less than 70 cm and not more than 100 cm. The end of the drain hose must always be ventilated , i.e. the inner diameter of the drainpipe must be larger than the external diameter of the drain hose.
Page 27
Without the plastic hose guide.
You can extend the drain hose to maximum 400 mm. Contact the service centre for the other drain hose and the extension.
ENGLISH 27
•To a sink spigot. Refer to the illustration. Put the drain
hose in the spigot and tighten it with a clip. Make sure that the drain hose makes a loop to prevent that remain­ing particles go in the appliance from the sink.
• Directly to a built-in drain pipe in the room wall and tighten it with a clip.
