2 Installation

Refer to the nearest Authorised Service Agent for installation of the product. To make the product ready for use, review the information in the user manual and make sure that the electricity, tap water supply and water drainage systems are appropriate before calling the Authorized Service Agent. If they are not, call a qualified technician and plumber to have any necessary arrangements carried out.

C Preparation of the location and electrical, tap water and waste water installations at the place of installation is under customer's responsibility.

B Installation and electrical connections of the product must be carried out by the Authorized Service Agent. Manufacturer shall not be held liable for damages that may arise from procedures carried out by unauthorized persons.

A Prior to installation, visually check if the product has any defects on it. If so, do not have it installed. Damaged products cause risks for your safety.

C Make sure that the water inlet and discharge hoses as well as the power cable are not folded, pinched or crushed while pushing the product into its place after installation or cleaning procedures.

Appropriate installation location

•Place the machine on a rigid floor. Do not place it on a long pile rug or similar surfaces.

•Total weight of the washing machine and the dryer -with full loadwhen they are placed on top of each other reaches to approx. 180

2 - EN

kilograms. Place the product on a solid and flat floor that has sufficient load carrying capacity!

•Do not place the product on the power cable.

•Do not install the product at places where temperature may fall below 0ºC.

•Place the product at least 1 cm away from the edges of other furniture.

Removing packaging reinforcement

Tilt the machine backwards to remove the packaging reinforcement. Remove the packaging reinforcement by pulling the ribbon.

Removing the transportation locks

A Do not remove the transportation locks before taking out the packaging reinforcement.

A Remove the transportation safety bolts before operating the washing machine! Otherwise, the product will be damaged.

Loosen all the bolts with a suitable spanner until they rotate freely (C). Remove transportation safety bolts by turning them gently. Attach the plastic covers supplied in the User Manual bag into the holes on the rear panel. (P)

C Keep the transportation safety bolts in a safe place to reuse when the washing machine needs to be moved again in the future.

C Never move the product without the transportation safety bolts properly fixed in place!

Connecting water supply

C The water supply pressure required to run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 10 MPa). It is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open tap in one minute to have your machine run smoothly. Attach a pressure reducing valve if water pressure is higher.

C If you are going to use the double water-inlet product as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the supplied stopper to the hot water valve before operating the product. (Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.)

C If you want to use both water inlets of the product, connect the hot water hose after removing the stopper and gasket group from the hot water valve. (Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.)

A Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the laundry will get damaged or the product will switch to protection mode and will not operate.

A Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on your laundry.

1.Connect the special hoses supplied with the product to the water inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90 ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water

inlet.

A Ensure that the cold and hot water connections are made correctly when installing the product. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the end of the washing process and wear out.

Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a wrench when tightening the nuts. Open the taps completely after making the hose connection to check

for water leaks at the connection points. If any leaks occur, turn off the tap and remove the nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking the seal. To prevent water leakages and damages caused by them, keep the taps closed when the machine is not in use.

Connecting to the drain

•The end of the drain hose must be directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin.

A Your house will be flooded if the hose comes out of its housing during water discharge. Moreover, there is risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures! To prevent such situations and to ensure smooth water intake

and discharge of the machine, fix the end of the discharge hose tightly so that it cannot come out.

•The hose should be attached to a height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm at most.

•In case the hose is elevated after laying it on the floor level or close to the ground (less than

40 cm above the ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the laundry may come out excessively wet. Therefore, follow the heights described in the figure.

•To prevent flowing of dirty water back into the machine and to allow for easy discharge, do not immerse the hose end into the dirty water or do not drive it in the drain more than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short.

•The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between the drain and the machine.

•If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding an original extension hose. Length of the hose may not be longer than 3.2 m.

foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally, environmental protection.

•Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes.

•Use concentrated detergents in the

recommended dosage.

Using softeners

Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent drawer.

•Use the dosages recommended on the package.

•Do not exceed the (>max<) level marking in the softener compartment.

•If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting it in the detergent drawer.

Using bleaches

•Select a programme with prewash and add the bleaching agent at the beginning of the prewash. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment.

•Do not use bleaching agent and detergent by mixing them.

Tips for efficient washing

•Use just a little amount (approx. 50 ml) of bleaching agent and rinse the clothes very well as it causes skin irritation. Do not pour the bleaching agent onto the clothes and do not use it for coloured clothes.

•When using oxygen based bleaches, follow the instructions on the package and select a programme that washes at a lower temperature.

•Oxygen based bleaches can be used together with detergents; however, if its thickness is not the same with the detergent, put the detergent first into the compartment nr. "II"

in the detergent drawer and wait until the detergent flows while the machine is taking in water. Add the bleaching agent from the same compartment while the machine is still taking in

water.

Using limescale remover

•When required, use limescale removers manufactured specifically for washing machines only.

•Always follow instructions on the package.
