• Wool, Silk

• Do not wash

NOTE

• The dashes under the symbol give you information about the type of fabric and the maximum allowance of mechanical stress.

Checking the Laundry before Loading

• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half of total load.

• Do not wash single small items. Add 1 - 2 similar items to the load to prevent an out-ofbalance load.

• Make sure to empty all pockets. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can cause irreparable damage to both your appliance and clothes.

• Wash delicates (stockings, underwired bras) in a wash net.

• Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items do not snag other clothes.

• Pre-treat dirt and stains by saturating the dirt and stains with dissolved detergent and brushing them in order to remove dirt.

CAUTION

• Do not wash or spin any item labelled or known to be water-proof or water-resistant, even if the product care label on the item permits machine washing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe damage to your washing load, your appliance and/or property damage as a result of abnormal load friction or vibration of the appliance.

− Examples of water-proof or water-resistant items include certain mattress pads, mattress covers, rain gear, camping gear, skiing apparel, outdoor gear and similar items.

Adding Detergents, Softeners and Bleaches

Detergent Dosage

• Detergent should be selected according to fabric type, colour, soil level and washing temperature and should be used according to the detergent manufacturer’s instructions.

• Too much detergent results in excessive suds which cause poor washing.

• When you use liquid detergent, follow the guidelines provided by the detergent manufacturer.

• You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the wash cycle immediately. It is also recommended that it be added into the drum when loading the clothes.

• Do not use liquid detergent if you have selected Pre Wash+Normal option, as the liquid may harden.

• Reduce the amount of detergent if too many suds are formed.

• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the laundry. For best results, avoid oversudsing.

• Refer to the label of the clothes, before choosing the detergent and water temperature.

• Use only suitable detergents for the respective type of clothing:

− General powdered detergents for all types of fabric

− Powdered detergents for delicate fabric

− Liquid detergents for all types of fabric or designated detergents only for wool

• For better washing performance and whitening, use detergent that contains general powdered bleach.

• Detergent is dispensed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle.

• Dilute liquid detergent with water, pour into the drum and start the cycle.

CAUTION

• Using liquid detergent without diluting, or leaving laundry for a long time after pouring diluted liquid detergent into the drum might cause the clothes to be damaged, bleached, discoloured.

NOTE

• Do not let the detergent harden. Doing so may lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or odour.

• Full load: According to manufacturer’s recommendation

• Part load: 3/4 of the normal amount

• Minimum load: 1/2 of full load

Adding Detergents

• Add the measured amount of detergent into the detergent compartment a.

• Use more detergent if you have hard water, large items, greasy or oily soils or lower water temperature.

• Soap flakes or granulated soap powders should not be used in the appliance. When washing woollens, remember to use detergent suitable for washing woollens.

NOTE

• Use the appropriate amount of detergent. Too much detergent, bleach or softener may cause an overflow or a malfunction.

Adding Fabric Softener

• Dilute fabric softener with water. Undiluted fabric softener may result in spots that look like oil stain.

• Measure and add the recommended amount of fabric softener into the compartment marked with this symbol ( ).

− Follow manufacturer’s direction.

− Fabric softener is automatically dispensed in the final rinse with indication beep.

− If you want extra rinse, you must add fabric softener manually when indication beep rings in the final rinse. This maximizes the fabric softener function.

• Do not overfill. The dispenser holds max 35 mL. Never add more than 35 mL. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which could result in stained clothes. A cup with a pouring spout will help you avoid spelling.

• The effect of adding fabric softener may vary according to its viscosity. The sticker fabric softener makes its effect lower. For a sticky softener it is recommended that it be diluted with water, then be manually put during the time when the washer beeps several times before the final rinse. This function informing correct time dispense manually is optionally applied to some models. Please keep it in mind that fabric softener has to be diluted with water before dispensed and poured directly on clothes.

Adding Liquid Bleaches

• Before starting the appliance, pour the measured amount of bleach directly into the bleach dispenser a. Avoid splashing or overfilling.

• Mix powdered bleach with water to a liquid consistency and pour it into the bleach dispenser.

• Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate the laundry to be bleached.

• Dilute liquid chlorine bleach with water.

• Measure the recommended amount of liquid bleach carefully according to instructions on the bottle.

CAUTION

• Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto laundry or into the wash basket. This may cause change of colour or damage to the laundry.

• Do not pour powdered bleach into the bleach dispenser. Powdered bleach may harden, so it will block the bleach dispenser.

NOTE

• Do not mix with detergent or bleach.

• Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.

• Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing.

• Option washing is not designed to be used with fabric softener dispenser.
