Preparation
3
Before starting your machine please beware of below men­tioned points:
Did you plug the cable? Did you connect draining hose cor-
rectly? Did you close front door? Did you open tap water?
If you haven’t installed your ma­chine please read to “Installation” section.
Sorting the Laundry
Sort laundry according to type of fabric, color, level of dirtiness and allowed washing temperature. Do not wash white laundry together with colored ones. Remove hard parts like belt, wrist button, curtain buttons, etc. or place laundry in a cloth bag. Empty pockets. Zip up and button up. Very tiny laundry like baby clothes may get into inside of drum, midst of bellow, pump filter, hose, etc. in order to pre­vent this it is advised to place such laundry in a special laundry string bag or large laundry. See practical and useful information section for soiled laundry. Your machine can wash “Ma­chine Wash” or “No-matting” labeled woolen with special woolen program. Delicate laundry with “Do not wash” or “hand wash” label (silk, cashmere, pure wool, etc.) can be washed in the special hand-wash program.
Opening front door
Pull the handle to open the front door. Your machine’s front door is designed for opening during only machine is not operating. If the led displays “door” than door can open.
Loading machine with laun­dry
Fill the machine by unfolding and not squeezing laundry. Place hand­woven garments inside-out to the machine. Make sure there is no laundry jammed between bellow and front-door. Close the loading door by pushing. If loading door is not properly closed machine will not start.
Selection of detergent and softener
Quantity of the detergent used depends on hardness of water and how soiled laundry is. Recommended values are indicated on the package. If your laundry is low soiled and/or hardness of water is low use less de­tergent as indicated on the package. Otherwise it may result in excessive foam. You should use detergent specially designed for automatic washing machines. Avoid using bleach product containing sulfur or chlorine. Place powder detergent and softener in appropriate drawer compartment and close detergent dispenser.

a. Compartment I, powder detergent drawer for pre-wash. b. Compartment II, powder detergent drawer for main wash. c. Softener dispenser d. Siphon
Fill the softener as indicated (usu­ally <100ml; 1 tea bag) on pack­age. Never fill more than “MAX” level. Excess amount will drain to suction cup and be wasted. You might need to fill softener again. If softener is thickened over time add some water for thinning. Softener may obstruct siphon and block flow.

1. Removing the transportation
safety bolts Before the washing machine is oper­ated, the transit bars must be re­moved! In order to do this:
1. Loosen “C” bolts by rotating them
counter clockwise with a suitable spanner
2. Remove transportation safety bolts
by turning.
3. Place “P” plastic covers onto the

3. Water Connections
a) Water Inlet Hose
Your machine is connected to water supply by special hoses supplied by the machine. Red hose or hose writ­ten red on it is hot water inlet, blue hose or hose written blue on it is cold water inlet.
There are plastic seals (4 for double
17
water inlet models, 2 for single water inlet models) on hose or plastic bag
for eliminating any leakage in con­nections points. These seals must be used on each side of the connection. Seals on machine side must be con­nected filter cannal.
After connecting the hose, check all connections for leaks In order to eliminate any risk due to water leak­age keep the taps off when machine is not used.
Your machine will operate efficiently if the water from tap is minimum 1 and maximum 10 bars. Practically 1 bar means 8 liters of water in one minute when tap is fully on.
Connect hose to the machine. Tighten bolts with hand power, do not use spanner. Double inlet models can be used with blind cap as a single inlet machine. Connect blind cap to hot water inlet. Seal must be for stopping water leak­age.
