4.11 Auxiliary function selection

Select the desired auxiliary functions before starting the programme. Furthermore, you may also select or cancel auxiliary functions that are suitable to the running programme by pressing the Start / Pause / Cancel button when the machine is operating. For this, the machine must be in a step before the auxiliary function you are going to select or cancel. Depending on the programme, press a, b, c or d buttons to select the desired auxiliary function. Symbol of the selected auxiliary function appears on the display.

Some functions cannot be selected together. If a second auxiliary function conflicting with the first one is selected

before starting the machine, the function selected first will be canceled and the second auxiliary function selection will remain active. For example, if you want to select Quick Wash after you have selected the Prewash, Prewash will be canceled and Quick Wash will remain active.

An auxiliary function that is not compatible with the programme cannot be selected. (See “Programme and

consumption table”)

Auxiliary Function buttons may vary according to the model of the machine.

• Prewash

A Prewash is only worthwhile for heavily soiled laundry. Not using the Prewash will save energy, water, detergent and time. F1 appears on the display when you select this function (a).

Washing Machine / User’s Manual

5.3 Cleaning the body and control panel

Wipe the body of the machine with soapy water or noncorrosive mild gel detergents as necessary, and dry with a soft cloth. Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control panel.

5.4 Cleaning the water intake filters

There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve at the rear of the machine and also at the end of each water intake hose where they are connected to the tap. These filters prevent foreign substances and dirt in the water to enter the washing machine. Filters should be cleaned as they do get dirty.

1. Close the taps.

2. Remove the nuts of the water intake hoses to access the filters on the water intake valves. Clean them with an appropriate brush. If the filters are too dirty, take them out by means of pliers and clean them.

3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of the water intake hoses together with the gaskets and clean thoroughly under running water.

4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully in their places and tighten the hose nuts by hand.

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.

WARNİNG: Foreign substances left in the pump filter may

damage your machine or may cause noise problem.

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

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

WARNİNG: Temperature of the water inside the machine

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

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.

You can remove the filter cover by slightly pushing downwards with a thin plastic tipped tool, through the

gap above the filter cover. Do not use metal tipped tools to remove the cover.

3. Some of our products have emergency draining hose and some does not have. Follow the steps below to discharge the water.

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 upper part to close.
