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 Authorised Service Agent. If they are not, call a qualified technician and plumber to have any necessary arrangements carried out.

Preparation of the location and electrical, tap

water and waste water installations at the place of

installation is under customer's responsibility.

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.

WARNING: Manufacturer shall not be held

liable for damages that may arise from procedures

carried out by unauthorised persons.

WARNING: 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.

3.1 Appropriate installation location

Washing Machine /User’s Manual

Installation

Keep the transportation safety bolts in a safe

place to reuse when the washing machine needs

to be moved again in the future.

Never move the product without the

transportation safety bolts properly fixed in place!

3.4 Connecting water supply

The water supply pressure required to run the

product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 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.

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.)

WARNING: 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

WARNING: 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. Blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water inlet.

WARNING: 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.

2. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a tool when tightening the nuts.

3. 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.

3.5 Connecting to the drain

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

• Drain hose shall be attached to a wall drain, stand pipe or sink siphon connected to the foul water drain, do not connect to surface water drains.

WARNING: 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.

Installation

100cm

40cm

• 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. To avoid water leak failures, the connection between the extension hose and the drain hose of the product must be fitted well with an appropriate clamp as not to come off and leak.

3.6 Adjusting the feet

WARNING: In order to ensure that the product

operates more silently and vibration-free, it must

stand level and balanced on its feet. Balance

the machine by adjusting the feet. Otherwise,

the product may move from its place and cause

crushing and vibration problems.

1. Loosen the lock nuts on the feet by hand.

2. Adjust the feet until the product stands level and balanced.

3. Tighten all lock nuts again by hand.

WARNING: Do not use any tools to loosen the

lock nuts. Otherwise, they will get damaged.

Electrical requirements

Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency shown in the rating label corresponds to your electricity supply. We recommend that this appliance be connected to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position. Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or need replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained from a Authorised Service Agent.

WARNING: This appliance must be earthed.

If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug, which is cut off as a plug with a bared cord could cause a shock hazard if inserted into a socket elsewhere in the house. The moulded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTA approved BS1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any good electrical store.

Important

Fitting a different plug

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals on your plug, proceed as follows: 1 Connect the green - yellow or green (earth) wire

to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’ or with the symbol f or coloured green and yellow or green.

2 Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal

in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured black.

3 Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in

the plug marked ‘L’ or coloured red. With the alternative plugs a 13A fuse must be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.

Preparation

4.2 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.

Preparation

4.7 Using detergent and softener

When using detergent, softener, starch, fabric dye, bleach or limescale remover read the manufacturer's instructions on the package carefully and follow the suggested dosage values. Use measuring cup if available.

Detergent Drawer

Detergent drawer of your washing machine consists of four different compartments for powder main wash detergent, liquid main wash detergent, liquid softener and powder pre-wash detergent. Each of these laundry additives are dispensed automatically in the relevant time during the washing Programme. Do not place the laundry additives directly into the drum. Always use the detergent drawer. Do not close the drawer too fast after putting the laundry additives. This may cause the additives be dispensed early, creating unsatisfactory washing results and fabric damage.

Do not open the drawer during washing Programme.

The detergent drawer compartments are indicated below:

1) Left compartment with number “II” (Main wash compartment for powder detergent or powder bleach/stain remover)

2) Left compartment with number “II ” (Main wash compartment for liquid detergent or liquid stain remover)

3) Middle compartment with number “I” (pre-wash compartment for powder detergent, powder stain remover or liquid bleach - liquid bleach must be added either during the pre-wash or during the first rinsing step of the washing Programme). Liquid bleach must be added manually while the machine takes in water.

4) Right compartment with “ ” symbol (liquid softener compartment)

(II) Main Wash Compartment

Before starting the washing Programme, put powder detergent into the left compartment with number “II”. Use the detergent manufacturer’s measuring cup and follow the instructions on the package. Powder bleach/stain remover must also be put into this compartment. Put the liquid detergent into the main wash compartment with number “II ” before starting the washing Programme. Liquid stain remover must be put into this compartment. Put the suggested amount of liquid detergent into the left compartment with “II ” symbol and dilute it to the maximum filling level line (max. II ) with warm water.

Washing Machine /User’s Manual

Preparation

Particularly the concentrated detergents must be diluted with warm water; otherwise, the siphon may get clogged in time. Do not fill the detergent above the maximum filling level line; otherwise the excess amount of detergent will reach the laundry without water and may cause stains on the garments.In this case you will need to refill the compartment. Do not pour the detergent onto the laundry directly since this may cause stains on the garments.

Liquid Softener Compartment

Put the suggested amount of liquid softener into

the right compartment with “ ” symbol and dilute it to the maximum filling level line (max.

) with warm water. Particularly the concentrated softeners must be diluted with warm water; otherwise, the siphon may get clogged in time. Do not fill the softener above the maximum filling level line; otherwise the excess amount of softener will get mixed with the washing water and you will need to refill the compartment. Do not pour the softener onto the laundry directly since this may cause stains on the garments. Liquid softener will be dispensed automatically at the final rinsing step of the washing Programme.

(I) Pre-Wash Compartment

Put the powder pre-wash detergent or powder stain remover into the middle compartment with number “I”. You can also put liquid bleach into this compartment while the machine takes in water during pre-wash or first rinsing step. Adding the liquid bleach while the machine takes in water allows it to be diluted before it is poured onto the laundry. You must select extra rinsing option if you use liquid bleach in a washing Programme. Bleach must be removed from the laundry with rinsing; otherwise it may cause itching on the skin.

Read the dosage instructions and label of your garments carefully before using the liquid bleach.

Starch

• Add liquid starch, powder starch or the dyestuff into the softener compartment as instructed on the package.

• Never use fabric softener and starch together in the same washing cycle.

• Wipe the inside of the drum after using starch.

Bleaches

If you are going to use regular bleach in your machine, it is suggested to select a Programme with pre-wash step and add the bleach at the beginning of the pre-wash without putting detergent into the pre-wash compartment. Alternatively, it is suggested to select a Programme with extra rinsing and add the bleach while the machine takes in water from the detergent drawer in the first rinsing step. Bleach should not be mixed with detergent. Since the bleach may cause irritation on skin, little amounts must be used and rinsed thoroughly. Do not pour bleach directly onto the laundry and do not use it with colour laundry. When using oxygen based bleach, follow the instructions on the package and select a Programme at low temperature. Oxygen based bleach can be used together with the detergent. However, if it is not at the same thickness with the detergent, then it must be added from the compartment number “II” right after the detergent foams with water.

Eliminating lime formation

• When required, use only appropriate lime removers developed specifically for washing machines and always follow the instructions on the package.

90˚C

Heavily soiled white cottons and linens. (coffee table covers, tableclothes, towels, bed sheets, etc.)

60˚C

Normally soiled, coloured, fade proof linens, cottons or synthetic clothes (shirt, nightgown, pajamas, etc.) and lightly soiled

white linens (underwear, etc.) 40˚C30˚CCold

Blended laundry including delicate textile

(veil curtains, etc.), synthetics and woolens.

2. Select the desired programme with the Programme Selection button.

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 consumption table"

5.5 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.

5.6 Additional programmes

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

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

• Cottons Eco

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.

If more than a normal amount of softener and liquid detergent mixture starts to remain in the softener compartment, the siphon must be cleaned.

2. Wash the drawer and the siphon with plenty of lukewarm water in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves or use an appropriate brush to avoid touching the residues in the drawer when cleaning.

3. Replace the drawer into its housing after cleaning. Check if the siphon is in its original location.

7.2 Cleaning the loading door and the drum

For products with drum cleaning programme, please see Operating the product - Programmes. For products without drum cleaning, follow the below steps to clean the drum: Select Additional Water or Extra Rinse auxiliary functions. Use a Cottons programme without pre-wash. Set the temperature to the level

recommended on the drum cleaning agent which can be provided from authorized services. Apply this procedure without any laundry in the product. Before starting the

programme, put 1 pouch of special drum cleaning agent (if the special agent could not be supplied, put max. 100 g of powder anti-limescale) into the main wash detergent compartment (compartment no. “2”). If the anti-limescale is in tablet form, put only one tablet into the main wash compartment no. “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.

Use an anti-limescale suitable for the washing machines.

After every washing make sure that no foreign substance is left in the drum.

If the holes on the bellow shown in the figure is blocked, open the holes using a toothpick.

Foreign metal substances will cause rust stains in the drum. Clean the stains on the drum surface by using cleaning agents for stainless steel. Never use steel wool or wire wool.

Maintenance and cleaning

WARNING: Never use sponge or scrub

materials. These will damage the painted and plastic surfaces.

7.3 Cleaning the body

and control panel

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

7.4 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.

7.5 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.

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 cleaned after the water in the machine cools down.

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

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.

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.
