Filling your Washing
Machine’s Dispenser Drawer
with Detergent
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.
:
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.
13
Page 15
HOW MUCH DETERGENT SHOULD I USE?
NOTE: You will need more detergent for washing cycles
containing dirtier clothes.
oFor 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 prewash 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
9Fill the softener compartment (far right 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
9You 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.

Tips on washing your clothes.
Dirtiness
Sort the clothes according to
dirtiness. Give special
treatment to those which are
very dirty or have got difficult
stains.
Treat very dirty areas like
collars and cuffs before
washing.
Wash clothes that are only
slightly dirty in short
programmes. In this way,
you will save energy as well
as get better results.
Wash averagely dirty clothes
in a normal wash programme.
Wash very dirty clothes in a
Long Programme with a
Prewash.
Sensitivity
Certain clothes, either because
of their fabric or the way they
are made, may be sensitive to
action of your machine. When
washing them, it is best to use
DELICATE PROGRAMMES.
You can wash woollen
garments() in the SPECIAL
WOOL PROGRAMME. Make
sure, first of all, that your
woollens are washable.

shown on previous page) & the temperatures you need for
your wash, etc., press this button to start your washing
cycle.
Note:
• The button will be depressed on the console.
• The ‘ON’ light will come on.
• The door safety mechanism will engage at this
time.
WARNING – DO NOT INSERT ANY KIND
OF PLASTIC CONTAINER FOR DETERGENTS IN
THE DRUM. THE DRYER COULD MELT THIS
AND CAUSE DAMAGE!
Interrupting a Programme
You can interrupt a programme at any time
by pressing the ‘ON/OFF’ button. Simply
do this and wait two minutes if you have to
add or remove garments. Be careful that
the water level inside the drum is not too
high and that the temperature is not very
hot.
To resume

left off.
19
Page 21
At the end of a Wash Programme
Provided the programme completes without
interruptions, you can open the loading door 2
minutes after it has completed. Take out your
clothes. If you have just washed a full load,
take out half of the laundry from the drum.
YOUR DRYER
The drying section of the washer-dryer
operates like any other by blowing heated air onto
wet clothes. This air is then extracted from the
machine.
In your washer-dryer, the moisture-laden air is
blown over cold water which causes the moisture to
condense. It is then pumped out of the machine.
Therefore, it is important that the machine is
turned on and the drain hose is correctly located
during the drying cycle.
NOTA BENE: YOU WILL NEED TO SELECT THE
HALF LOAD OPTION IN ORDER TO RUN YOUR
DRYER. TO THIS END, YOU MUST NEVER FILL THE
DRUM WITH MORE THAN A HALF LOAD OF
WASHING OR WET CLOTHES. NOR SHOULD SUCH
LAUNDRY BE DRIPPING WET. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS ADVICE WILL RESULT IN
UNSATISFYING DRYING PERFORMANCE AND
COULD POSSIBLY IMPEDE OR HARM YOUR
MACHINE.

Page 22
TO USE THE DRYER:
CAUTION: Before using the dryer,
please read the following notes.
 Do not attempt to dry
items treated with
solvents or petroleum
based products. Such
substances are volatile
and may cause an
explosion.
 Before using the dryer,
remove any plastic
detergent containers.
 Do not over dry the
washing. Excessive drying
may crease clothing and
make ironing difficult.
 Do not put sleeping bags,
cushions or voluminous
blankets in the machine.
These will expand during
drying and block airflow in
the machine.
REMEMBER TO PRESS THE ½ LOAD BUTTON TO DRY!

Note the knob can be set up to a maximum of 140 minutes
(2 hours 20 minutes) but we suggest that you firstly select a
lower time of approximately 30/40 minutes. You can check if
the laundry is dry and, if not, add more minutes as needed to
prevent your clothes from being over-dried.

Page 25
MAINTENANCE AND
CLEANING:
Please note: Disconnect the power supply before
attempting maintenance or cleaning your washing machine.
Cleaning the outlet filter
If you are using the drying feature on your appliance, you
will need to clean its filter out after every 3-4 washes. If you
have been drying clothes that will leave a lot of fluff or lint,
you will then need to clean this filter out after each such
cycle.
If, however, you have only been using the washing function, you should then clean this
filter after every 25 washing cycle programmes to keep the drain pump running
efficiently (this will enable more efficient washing and rinsing).
* NOTE: If you do not fit the filter cover properly, it
will leak water!

ADJUSTING THE FEET
CAUTION :
o DO NOT INSTALL YOUR MACHINE ON RUGS OR CARPETS.
o FOR YOUR WASHING MACHINE TO WORK SILENTLY & WITHOUT ANY VIBRATION, YOU
SHOULD POSITION IT ON FLAT, NON-SLIPPERY & TOUGH GROUND.
o YOU CAN ADJUST YOUR WASHING MACHINE’S LEVEL BY TURNING ITS FEET EITHER
UPWARDS OR DOWNWARDS (Please see DIAGRAM below).
1) FIRSTLY, LOOSEN THE PLASTIC
ADJUSTMENT NUT.
2) AFTER YOU’VE REACHED THE
LEVEL YOU WANT, TIGHTEN THE
PLASTIC ADJUSTMENT NUTS
AGAIN BY ROTATING THEM
UPWARDS (ONE FOR EACH
3) NEVER PUT CARTONS, WOODEN
BLOCKS OR SIMILAR MATERIALS
UNDER THE MACHINE TO HELP MAKE
IT LEVEL TO THE GROUND.
4) NOTE: THE HIGHEST YOU CAN RAISE
THE APPLIANCE ON ITS FEET IS
30mm.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
YOUR WASHING MACHINE WORKS ON 220-240V & 50 Hz. IT COMES WITH ITS OWN
SPECIALLY MOULDED, EARTHED PLUG THAT HAS BEEN ATTACHED TO THE POWER
CABLE OF YOUR WASHING MACHINE. The plug must be inserted to an earthed socket
with 10 ampere. The fuse used in your plug must also be 10Amps. Should your electricity
supply not match these specifications, you should contact a qualified electrician to
accommodate this.
*REMINDER: WARNING! (PLEASE NOTE) Baumatic Ltd are not responsible for any
damages arising out of usage following failure to earth (ground) your appliance.
CONNECTING TO THE WATER MAINS
• Depending on your
appliance’s features, it may
operate with a single water
inlet (cold) or a double water
inlet (hot/cold). THE WHITEHEADED HOSE IS FOR
THE COLD WATER INLET /
THE RED-HEADED HOSE
IS FOR THE HOT WATER
INLET (but ONLY for
machines with a double
water inlet system).

• To prevent leakage from the connection joints, a seal (for machines with
cold water inlet only) or seals (for machines with hot & cold water inlets)
are included in the hose packing. Fit these seals at the end of the water
inlet hoses on the tap side. If your sink only has a mixing tap, use only
one hose and connect it to the cold water valve of the machine. In this
case, screw on the supplied cap to close the hot water valve.
1) Connect the WHITE-HEADED HOSE to the WATER INLET VALVE with the
white filter & connect the RED-HEADED HOSE to the WATER INLET
VALVE with the red filer (this is only applicable to machines with double
inlet systems).
2) Tighten (but do not over-tighten) the plastic parts of the connections with
your hand. Please call a qualified plumber to ensure safer connections.
