Preventing material damage en
Preventing material damage
Preventing material damage
Follow these instructions to avoid material damage and damage to the appliance.
ATTENTION!
¡ The functionality of the appliance
may be impaired if you use the
wrong quantity of fabric softener,
detergent, care product or cleaning agent.
▶
Follow the dosage recommendations from the manufacturer.
¡ Exceeding the maximum load ca-
pacity impairs the function of the
appliance.
▶
Observe the maximum load capacity →Page24 for each programme and do not exceed it.
¡ The appliance is secured for trans-
portation using transit bolts. Transit
bolts which have not been removed may result in material damage and damage to the appliance.
▶
Before starting up the appliance,
remove the transit bolts completely and keep them in a safe
place.
▶
Before transport, fit the transit
bolts fully in order to prevent
damage in transit.
¡ Material damage may be caused if
the water inlet hose is connected
incorrectly.
▶
Tighten the screw connections
on the water inlet until they are
hand-tight.
▶
Ideally, connect the water inlet
hose directly to the water tap,
without any additional connecting elements such as adapters,
extensions, valves or similar.
▶
Ensure that the inner diameter
of the water tap is at least 17
mm.
▶
Make sure that the length of the
thread on the connection to the
water tap is at least 10 mm.
¡ If the water pressure is too high or
too low, the appliance may not be
able to operate properly.
▶
Make sure that the water pressure in the water supply system
is min. 100kPa (1bar) and
max. 1000kPa (10bar).
▶
If the water pressure exceeds
the maximum value specified, a
pressure-reducing valve must be
installed between the drinking
water connection and the hose
set of the appliance.
▶
Do not connect the appliance to
the mixer tap of an unpressurised hot-water boiler.
¡ Modified or damaged water hoses
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
▶
Never kink, crush, modify or cut
through water hoses.
▶
Only use the water hoses supplied with the appliance or genuine spare hoses.
▶
Never re-use water hoses that
have been used before.
¡ Operating the appliance using wa-
ter that is dirty or too hot may
cause material damage.
▶
Only operate the appliance with
cold mains water.
¡ Unsuitable cleaning products may
damage the surfaces of the appliance.
▶
Do not use harsh or abrasive
detergents.
▶
Do not use cleaning products
with a high alcohol content.
▶
Do not use hard scouring pads
or cleaning sponges.
▶
Clean the appliance with nothing
but water and a soft, damp
cloth.
11
en Environmental protection and saving energy
▶
Remove all detergent residue,
spray residue or other residues
immediately if they come into
contact with the appliance.
Environmental protection and saving energy
Environmental protection
and saving energy
Help protect the environment by using your appliance in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of
reusable materials properly.
Disposing of packaging
Add →Page31 detergent based on
the laundry's degree of soiling.
For light to normal soiling, a smaller amount of detergent is sufficient. Observe the dosage recommendation from the detergent
manufacturer.
Reduce the washing temperature for
lightly and normally soiled laundry.
At low temperatures, the appliance
consumes less energy. For light to
normal soiling, lower temperatures
than indicated on the care label
are also sufficient.
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separately.
Information about current disposal
methods are available from your
specialist dealer or local authority.
Save energy and conserve resources
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Choose programmes with low temperatures and longer wash times and
use maximum load capacity
→Page24.
Energy consumption and water
consumption is most efficient.
Set the maximum spin speed if you
want to dry the laundry in a tumble
dryer afterwards.
The drier the laundry, the shorter
the programme duration when drying which, in turn, reduces energy
consumption. A higher spin speed
reduces the residual moisture in
the laundry and increases the
volume of the spin noise.
Wash the laundry without prewash.
Washing with prewash increases
the programme duration and increases energy and water consumption.
The appliance has a continuous
automatic load adjustment function.
Depending on the type of fabric
and load capacity, the continuous
automatic load adjustment function optimally adjusts the water
consumption and programme duration.
