a total weight of up to 180 kg.
Important:
• Do not stand appliance on the power
cable.
• Keep at least 1cm distance to walls of
other furniture.
• Place the machine on a firm surface,
never on a long-pile carpet or similar
surface.
3. Place the five covers (from the accessories bag) onto the openings in the
rear panel and use a suitable tool
(such as the handle of a screw driver)
to push them into place. The smaller
cover is intended for the top-mot
opening.
Store the transit bars in a safe place.
• They will be required if the washing
machine is to be transported again
(e.g. if you move house).
Never transport the appliance without
A
installed transit bars!
The right location of installation
Install the appliance in a stable, level position in frost-free surroundings.

1. If not already attached, manually
screw the bent end of the supply hose
tightly onto the rear panel of the machine (not in case of Aquasafe+).
2. Screw the Aquasafe or Aquasafe+ (depending on the model) at the end of
the supply hose tightly onto the water
tap by hand.
Connecting the water drain
You can hang the drain hose over the edge
of a wash basin, sink or bathtub – or connect it permanently to a drain pipe (siphon
trap).
Important:
• Do not run the drain hose higher than
100 cm above floor level for the suds
pump to be able to pump out. Don't
go below the minimal height of
40 cm, otherwise water will come out.
.
The Aquasafe or Aquasafe+ (depend-
3
ing on model) turns off the water supply should a leakage occur in your
hose.
3. Turn the water tap all the way on and
check all connections for leaks; Turn
the water tap off again. Correct the
position of seals and screw couplings,
if necessary.
• The water must be able to run off unhindered. Washbasins with a small
drain are not suitable.
• The end of the hose must not immerge in the pumped-out water.
• Check with customer service for hose
extensions. Do not use homemade extensions with hose clamps or similar!
• Use only the new hose supplied with
the machine, not an old existing one!
7
• Ensure that there are no sharp bends
in the hose!
Fastening the hose holder:
1. Pull the holder included in delivery
over the end of the hose.
2. Hand the drain hose with the holder
over the edge of the basin or tub and
secure it from sliding off – e.g. by fastening it with a chain around the water tap.
Permanent connection to a siphon trap:
A qualified plumber should attach the
A
hose to prevent the hose from slipping
off. There is a risk of flooding.
Electrical connection
Connect the appliance to a properly installed earthed outlet, which is protected
by a fuse of adequate capacity.
Important:
• The connection must conform to the
applicable regulations in your country
and those set by your electricity
board.
• The power cable plug must be accessible after installation.
• Voltage and rated fuse protection is
specified on the type plate located on
the back of the loading door.
• The stated voltage must match with
your mains voltage.
• Connection by extension cables or
trailing sockets is not permitted.
A damaged power cable must be re-
B
placed by a qualified electrician.
Unless the appliance has been repaired it must not be operated! Risk of
electric shock!

close water tap and pull mains plug
out of the socket. Check to see that all
transit bars have been removed and
the hoses are properly connected.
Preparing to wash
After completion of the programme
cycle:
If the >Door< indicator lamp is glow-
3
ing, the loading door can be opened
(see "indicator lamp").
1. Press >On/Off<18 button.
2. Turn the water tap off.
3. Leave door and detergent dispensing
drawer open to dry.
Sorting the laundry
• Sort the laundry by type of fabric, colour, degree of soiling and permissible
water temperature.
Always follow the recommendations
A
on the garment label.
Type of textiles and care symbols
Whites/coloureds: cotton, linen
Easy-care: Synthetics (polyester, polyamide); Blended fabrics (with cottonit
Baumwolle)
Delicates: Delicate fabrics
(rayon, silk, etc.); Curtains
Woollens: Only with wool stamp and labelled "Machine washable"
machine
washable
Hand wash: Do not wash:
• Don't wash coloureds and whites together. New, dark coloured cottons
will stain very much.
Preparing clothes for washing
Items of laundry with metal parts
A
(e.g.underwire bras, belt buckles, metal buttons) will damage the machine.
Remove metal parts or place the items
in a cloth bag, pillow case, or something similar.
• Empty pockets, remove all foreign objects (e.g. coins, pens, paper clips). If
possible: Turn pockets inside out and
brush.
• Place small items of laundry (e.g.
tights) in a cloth bag, pillow case or
something similar. This can also help
you to avoid searching for lost socks.
• Handle curtains with special care. Remove non-stainless curtain runners
and lead tape. Place runners that can't
be removed in a cloth bag, pillow case
or something similar.
• Close zippers, sew on loose buttons,
mend unstiched seams and tears.
• Only wash woolens that are labelled
"machine washable" or "handwashable" – and only with the appropriate
programme.
9
• Wash new coloured items of laundry
separately – they may "bleed".
• Heavy stains should be treated appropriately before washing. If in doubt,
check with a chemist or dry-cleaner.
• Use only dyes/discolouring and antiliming agents suitable for machine
wash. Make sure to follow the instructions on the package.
• Wash jeans and delicates inside out.
• Keep laundry items made of Angorawool in the freezer compartment for a
few hours before washing – this reduces number of fluff balls formed.
The right load capacity
• The maximum load capacity depends
on the type of laundry, the degree of
soling and the wash programme you
wish to use.
Please follow to the information in the
A
"Programme table".
Detergents and softeners
Washing results are adversely affected
by an overloaded drum.
Always try to utilize the max. load.
3
The loading door
The loading door is locked when a
3
programme is running; in this case the
>Door< indicator light is OFF (see "Indicator lamps").
As soon as the >Door< indicator lamp
goes on, the door can be opened.
• Pull on the handle to open the loading
door.
• Place laundry items loosely in the
drum; Add detergent if necessary (in
an eco bag or dosing ball).
• Push the loading door firmly shut until
you hear it lock into place. Take care
no textiles are caught by the door.
The detergent dispensing drawer
The detergent dispensing drawer comprises 3 compartments:
– left compartment ( II) for main wash
– middle compartment for fabric soften-
er
– right compartment ( I) for pre-wash
• Always add detergent and fabric softener before starting the wash programme.
Never open the detergent dispensing
A
drawer while the wash programme is
still running!
Dosing devices
In case of programme without pre-wash,
you can add washing detergent directly to
the drum with a detergent bag or a dosing
ball.
Liquid detergent
When using liquid or gel-like washing detergents, please note the following:
Liquid detergent may cause stains on
A
your laundry if a time delay has been
set.
• Don't use liquid detergent if you want
to wash using the time delay feature.
• Don't use liquid detergent for the
main wash in a cycle with pre-wash.
10
• Use the detergent manufacturer's dosing cup and follow the instructions on
the package.
Choice of detergent
The type of detergent used depends on
the type of textile, colour, degree of soiling
and desired washing temperature.
• Use regular detergent for cottons (60 95 °C), otherwise use special detegent
for coloured and delicate wash.
• Wash woollens only with a special detergent for woollens.
• Detergents using a modular system allow you to add bleach and softener individually.
• Use only detergents suitable for washing machines.
Detergent quantity
The amount of washing detergent to use
depends on the amount of laundry, the
degree of soiling and water hardness.
Ask your local waterworks for the cur-
3
rent level of water hardness.

Fabric softener
Fabric softener is added into the middle
compartment of the detergent dispensing
drawer.
• Proportion as recommended on the
packing!
• Fill only up to the mark level (> max<).
• Dilute viscous fabric softener with water before adding.
If you use dryer or dry your laundry
3
outdoors, you do not need fabric softener.
Starch
• Add liquid starch and fininshing agent
into the middle compartment.
• Mix powdered starch according to the
directions on the package and like fabric softener, add to the middle compartment.
• Never use fabric softener and starch
together in the same washing cycle.
• Wipe off the drum after using starch.
Too much detergent causes an excessive
amount of foaming, bad washing and rinsing results and a strain on water resources.
Too little washing detergent causes laundry to turn grey and calcification of the
machine.

19e.
Prewash
A pre- wash can be activated with the 19a
button.
A pre-wash is only worth while with
3
heavily soiled laundry.
Without prewash you save energy,
water, washing powder – and time.
Intensive
The 19b button extends the washing time
in the main wash cycle . Washing powder
can work more effectively and you can
wash at lower temperatures – thereby saving energy.
• With this button normally soiled linens/coloureds can now be washed at
60 °C instead of 95 °C.
• Normal soiled easy-cares you can
wash at 40 °C instead of 60 °C, plus
this button.
Extra rinse
An extra rinse cycle is activated with the
19c button.
• Use this function only if you are sensitive to washing detergent residue.
The increased water consumption is a
burden to the environment – and to
your purse.
Easy iron
If you press the button 19d, the drum
movement is reduced and spinning is limited to reduce creasing. In addition, the
washing is done at a higher water level.
• Use this button for delicate fabrics that
easily crease.
The maximum load is then
A
– for linens/coloureds: . . . . . . . 3.0 kg
– for synthetics: . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.5 kg
– for delicate fabrics: . . . . . . . . 1.0 kg
Quick wash
With button 19e the wash time is shortened.
• Use this function for small loads or less
soiled laundry.
Child-proof lock
With the Child-proof lock 19f you can
guard the appliance against children's

12b
12c
21
You should reduce the speed for especially
delicate fabrics.
Display
The display 16 shows the time remaining
for the programme to complete. The time

16
• By repeatedly pressing the >Spin< 21
button you can change the speed– or
completely disable the spin cycle.
• In the >No spin< 12c setting no spinning takes place; water is only drained.
• In the >Rinse hold< 12b setting the
programme stops after the last rinse
cycle. The laundry remains in the water (to protect against creasing). A
blinking display notifies you that the
rinse stop has been reached. For steps
after this, refer "Quick instructions for
daily use".
The higher the spin speed, the lower
3
the residual moisture.
If you wish to dry your laundry subsequently in a dryer, select the maximum possible speed – this saves energy when drying.
The length of a programm depends
3
on the type of program and the additional functions selected. The details in
the table "Technical data and consumption figures" refer to programms
without additional functions.
14
Preset time
With the Preset time function you can delay the programme start. You can enter a
time delay of up to 96:00 hours. Setting
can be made in increments of 30-minutes.
