Cautions and advice about using your
washing machine
In order to get maximum satisfaction and performance from your
washing machine, please ensure you follow the instructions given
below:
9 Select the clothes load correctly and choose the appropriate
programme.
9 Before opening the door, check that there is no water in
the machine and the pilot light is off.
9 Put the washing products in the right proportion and in the right
compartment.
9 Small garments such as socks, belts, etc. are best put
inside a bag to avoid their being lost.
9 Before putting clothes into the washing machine, make sure that
there is nothing in the pockets (coins, buttons, clips, etc.) and
that the zips are undone.
9 If your machine has a filter, you should check regularly
that it is clean & not blocked. Be especially wary of coins,
brassiere wire & fluff/hair.
9 The interior of the washing machine should be handled by
specialists only. NEVER attempt to repair or modify it
yourself.
9 After each wash, leave the door ajar to prevent the rubber
seal from becoming misshapen or mouldy.
9 When the clothes to be washed are heavily soiled or splattered
with mud, it is advisable to run a programme with pre-wash.
9 Unless doing half load washing, always put the machine
on fully loaded to save energy.
9 When the machine has just been installed, or after a long
time without it being used, it is advisable to run a washing
programme with the machine empty, to eliminate any
rusty water in the tubes.

Using your BTWM4
NOTE: (*VERY IMPORTANT*) – You must
ensure that the transportation bolts
have been removed before you attempt
to use your Washing Machine,
OTHERWISE you will damage or
destroy your appliance. See page 27
for instructions.
Only once you are sure this has been done can you do
the following
:
1) Plug in your machine
2) Turn on the water supply
Note on using your
Washing Machine
for the first time:
There may be water
left inside your
machine after factory
tests and trials.
• The first time you run a
wash cycle, you should not
put laundry in your machine
as it may need to drain water.
• Pour half a measuring cup of
normal or all purpose detergent
into compartment 2 (
) in your
detergent dispenser and select
wash program 2 (without prewash)

o Separate the clothes into 3 lots (cotton,
synthetics and wool).
9 Within each group, separate the coloureds from
the whites. *NOTE – see next page for tips.
9 Once the clothes have been separated, you can
put them into the drum of the washing machine,
separately and according to colour and group,
loose, piece by piece. Do not exceed the

Tips for loading your laundry:
: Never wash

 Remove the
your white

new
coloured
clothes may
shed dye on
the first
wash,
wash them
separately.
no metal
pieces are in

your clothes.
There is the
chance of rust
residues
coming off and
causing stains.

WASHING LABELS & THEIR MEANINGS

Filling your Washing
Machine’s Dispenser Drawer
with Detergent
Dispenser Drawer
The dispenser drawer consists of three compartments:
1) Pre-wash / Bio-wash Compartment
This compartment should be used only when programmes involving pre-wash or biowash have been selected. The amount of power used will depend on the fabric type
to be washed. We recommend following the detergent manufacturer’s directions.
2) Main wash Compartment
This compartment is used to store detergent that is going to be used in the main
washing cycle of any complete washing programme.
3) Fabric Conditioner Compartment
This compartment is used for fabric softeners. At the end of the washing programme,
water will automatically be siphoned out, leaving the compartment ready for the next
wash. NOTE: THERE IS A SIDE COMPARTMENT ON THE RIGHT (‘CL’) THAT IS FOR
BLEACH. ONLY USE SPECIAL LAUNDRY BLEACH ON WHITE COTTON MATERIALS
THAT ARE SUITABLE FOR THIS TREATMENT.
IMPORTANT!
The detergent dispenser drawer and housing must be cleaned periodically
to ensure that detergent and fabric softener do not build up and reduce
the appliance’s efficiency. To remove the drawer, pull it forward to its
fullest extent, lifting the front edge at the same time, then give a firm tug.
The dispenser drawer should now be rinsed, dried and replaced.
10
HOW MUCH DETERGENT SHOULD I USE?
NOTE: You will need more detergent for washing cycles
containing dirtier clothes.
o For very dirty
clothes, select a
programme with prewashing, fill
compartment 1 with ¼ of
the amount of the
detergent you are putting
in compartment 2.
o For clothes that are
only slightly dirty, do not
pre-wash and put only a
small amount of
detergent into
compartment 2 in your
washing machine’s
dispenser drawer.
CAUTION: Only use detergents for automatic
washing machines. The amount needed for different washing
loads and types will be written on the packaging of your
detergent.
NOTE: The harder the water in
your area, the more detergent you
will need to use.
SOFTENERS
9 Fill the softener compartment in your detergent drawer with
softener. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, the softener will
diffuse in the washing water through the siphon. Dilute high density
softeners first.
FLUID DETERGENTS
9 You can use fluid detergents in all programmes without prewashing. For this, move the fluid detergent level plate in the second
compartment of the detergent drawer and pour in the amount of fluid
detergent according to the levels on this plate.
