3 Preparation

3.1 Sorting the laundry

• Sort laundry according to type of fabric, colour, and
degree of soiling and allowable water temperature.

• Always obey the instructions given on the garment tags.

3.2 Preparing laundry for washing

• Laundry items with metal attachments such as,
underwired bras, belt buckles or metal buttons will
damage the machine. Remove the metal pieces or wash
the clothes by putting them in a laundry bag or pillow
case.

• Take out all substances in the pockets such as coins,
pens and paper clips, and turn pockets inside out and
brush. Such objects may damage the product or cause
noise problem.

• Put small size clothes such as infant's socks and nylon
stockings in a laundry bag or pillow case.

• Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove
curtain attachment items.

• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and
tears.

• Wash “machine washable” or “hand washable” labeled
products only with an appropriate programme.

• Do not wash colours and whites together. New, dark
coloured cottons release a lot of dye. Wash them
separately.

• Tough stains must be treated properly before washing. If
unsure, check with a dry cleaner.

• Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale removers
suitable for machine wash. Always follow the instructions
on the package.

• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned inside out.

• Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the freezer
for a few hours before washing. This will reduce pilling.

• Laundry that are subjected to materials such as flour,
lime dust, milk powder, etc. intensely must be shaken off
before placing into the machine. Such dusts and powders
on the laundry may build up on the inner parts of the
machine in time and can cause damage.

lightly soiled white linens (underwear, etc.)

Blended laundry including delicate textile (veil curtains,
etc.), synthetics and woolens.

Programmes are limited with the highest spin speed
appropriate for that particular type of fabric.

When selecting a programme, always consider the type
of fabric, colour, degree of soiling and permissible water
temperature.

Always select the lowest required temperature. Higher
temperature means higher power consumption.

For further programme details, see "Programme and

4.5 Main programmes

Depending on the type of fabric, use the following main
programmes.

• Cottons

Use this programme for your cotton laundry (such as bed
sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, towels, bathrobes,
underwear, etc.). Your laundry will be washed with vigorous
washing action for a longer washing cycle.

• Synthetics

Use this programme to wash your synthetic clothes (shirts,
blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). It washes with a
gentle action and has a shorter washing cycle compared to
the Cottons programme.
For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 40˚C programme
with prewash and anti-creasing functions selected. As their
meshed texture causes excessive foaming, wash the veils/
tulle by putting little amount of detergent into the main
wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the prewash
compartment.

• Woollens

Use this programme to wash your woolen clothes. Select
the appropriate temperature complying with the tags of your
clothes. Use appropriate detergents for woolens.

4.6 Additional programmes

For special cases, additional programmes are available in
the machine.

Additional programmes may differ according to the
model of the machine.

• Cotton Economic

You may wash your normally soiled durable cotton and
linen laundry in this programme with the highest energy
and water saving compared to all other wash programmes
suitable for cottons. Actual water temperature may differ
from the declared cycle temperature. Programme duration
may automatically be shortened during later stages of the
programme if you wash less amount (e.g. ½ capacity or
less) of laundry. In this case energy and water consumption
will be further decreased giving you the opportunity for a
more economical wash. This feature is available for certain
models having remaining time display.

• BabyProtect

Use this programme to wash baby laundry, and the laundry
that belongs to allergic persons. Longer heating time and an
additional rinsing step provide a higher level of hygiene.

4-5 washing cycles) as shown below in order to prevent
accumulation of powder detergent in time.

1. Press the dotted point on the siphon in the softener

compartment and pull towards you until the compartment

is removed from the machine.

If more than normal amount of water and softener
mixture starts to gather in the softener compartment, the

C

siphon must be cleaned.

lukewarm water in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves

or use an appropriate brush to avoid touching of the

residues in the drawer with your skin when cleaning.

3. Insert the drawer back into its place after cleaning and

make sure that it is seated well.
If your detergent drawer is the one indicated in the following
figure:

wash detergent compartment (compartment nr. 2). If the
anti-limescale is in tablet form, put only one tablet into
compartment nr. 2. Dry the inside of the bellow with a clean
piece of cloth after the programme has come to an end.

Repeat Drum Cleaning process in every 2 months.

5.5 Draining remaining water and
cleaning the pump filter

The filter system in your machine prevents solid items
such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers clogging the pump
impeller during discharge of washing water. Thus, the water
will be discharged without any problem and the service life
of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter is clogged.
Filter must be cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 3
months. Water must be drained off first to clean the pump
filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g., when
moving to another house) and in case of freezing of the
water, water may have to be drained completely.

warning: Foreign substances left in the pump filter may

damage your machine or may cause noise problem.

A

In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge the water:

1. Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.

warning: Temperature of the water inside the machine

may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid burning risk, filter must be

A

cleaned after the water in the machine cools down.

2. Open the filter cap.
If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, press the

tab on the filter cap downwards and pull the piece out
towards yourself.

If the filter cap is one piece, pull the cap from both sides at
the top to open.

a. Pull the emergency draining hose out from its seat
b. Place a large container at the end of the hose. Drain the

water into the container by pulling out the plug at the end
of the hose. When the container is full, block the inlet
of the hose by replacing the plug. After the container is
emptied, repeat the above procedure to drain the water in
the machine completely.

c. When draining of water is finished, close the end by the

plug again and fix the hose in its place.

d. Turn the pump filter to take it out.
Discharging the water when the product does not have an
emergency draining hose:

a. Place a large container in front of the filter to catch water

from the filter.

b. Loosen pump filter (anticlockwise) until water starts to

flow. Fill the flowing water into the container you have
placed in front of the filter. Always keep a piece of cloth
handy to absorb any spilled water.

c. When the water inside the machine is finished, take out

the filter completely by turning it.

4. Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibers, if
any, around the pump impeller region.

5. Install the filter.

6. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter
cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one piece, seat the tabs
in the lower part into their places first, and then press the
