Before Washing
Checking before use
For the appliance’s initial operation or after a prolonged period of non-operation, perform the following procedures:
1.Secure the water supply hose.
2.Turn on the tap.
3.Connect the power supply.
4.Make sure that the water drain hose is positioned towards a drain.
For more details, see page 41.
Before initial use
Before using the appliance for the first time, run the 40 ºC Cotton programme WITHOUT any detergent or clothing to rinse out residue or moisture.
Note
There may be residual water in the appliance due to the factory inspection prior to shipment. This is not a malfunction.
Preparing the laundry
Sorting the laundry
-- Read clothing care labels to sort the laundry into different loads.
-- Sort the laundry by colour, type of fabric and how soiled it is. Doing so will help you choose the correct programme and temperature for each wash.
-- Clothes that are not colour fast should be washed separately. Wash denim separately.
-- You should put bras with metal wires, tights, lace clothing and small items into a laundry net to prevent them or the appliance from being damaged.
12 - Read Before Using
Caution
Do NOT wash water-repellent clothing.
There is a possibility of excessive vibration or failure during the spindrying cycle that may result in an injury, damage to the appliance or a water leak.
Treating stains
Apply stain remover to stained portions. For dirt and solid stains, wash lightly by hand first.
Checking clothing
-- Check that the pockets on clothing do not contain any objects that may damage the clothes or the appliance.
-- Tie up any loose strings on the clothing and close zippers. Turn clothing with raised fabrics and zippers inside
out. Otherwise, the clothes may be damaged.
-- Remove any hair, animal fur, sand and other materials with a brush before washing.
Note
Do not wash clothes heavily stained with large quantities of vegetable oil or cosmetic oil (aroma oil, etc.). Failure to observe this may result in the door seal swelling, causing the water to overflow and leading to malfunctions.

Adding Detergent and Other Chemicals
Pull out the detergent drawer and add detergent or softener to the correct compartment. Check the packages for the recommended amounts.
Caution
Do NOT use the appliance when the detergent drawer is removed.
This may result in a water leak.
Prewashing compartment
Softener compartment
Detergent compartment
Detergent compartment
The following detergents and additives may be added to this compartment:
-- Detergent
-- Water softening agent -- Stain remover
-- Tub cleaning detergent or bleach
If you use multiple chemicals in this compartment for washing, add them in the following order:
1.Detergent
2.Water softening agent
3.Stain remover
Detergent
Use only detergents that are recommended for fully-automated washing machines. Please use low suds detergents.
When you use a detergent specifically for slightly lower temperature than 20 °C (as low as 15 °C), the 20 °C Wash programme is recommended.
Caution
If the instructions on the package indicate that detergent should be placed in the drum, do NOT put it into the detergent drawer.
These detergents may not flow well and remain in the detergent drawer.
Do not overfill with detergent. Failure to observe this may result in the detergent blocking the water supply, causing the water to overflow from the front of the detergent drawer and leading to malfunctions.

Adding Detergent and Other Chemicals
1. Liquid detergent Note
--Do NOT use liquid detergent with the Prewash function. It may flow away during the prewash.
--Add liquid detergent before you start washing.
Fit the liquid detergent level plate (included with the accessories) into the detergent compartment and use it as a mark to set the amount of liquid detergent. Make sure to detach the plate before running the programme.
Note
Leaving the liquid detergent level plate in the detergent drawer while the programme is running may result in water leakage, or diminished washing and spinning performance.
For the Wool programme, use mild liquid detergent.
2. Powdered detergent
Detergent reaches the drum only when water flushes through the detergent drawer. Thus, if you have forgotten to add detergent, run the Drain programme.
Then, add detergent and start washing again.
To prevent powdered detergent from remaining in the drawer, perform the following:
-- Dry the inside of the drawer with a cloth.
-- Make sure that the detergent is not lumpy when you add it because this may cause a blockage over time.
14 - Read Before Using
Amount of Detergent
The amount of detergent you should use depends on the following factors:
-- How soiled the laundry is -- Amount of the laundry
-- Water hardness
The amount of foam varies according to the amount and type of detergent, how soiled the laundry is, and the hardness and temperature of the water.
Water softening agent
If you live in a hard water area, we recommend using a water softening agent. For more details on water hardness, contact your local water authority.
Use of a water softening agent can help reduce the amount of detergent required for each wash and help prevent the formation of limescale deposits, which may damage the appliance.

Adding Detergent and Other Chemicals
Softener compartment
The following additives may be added to this compartment:
-- Fabric softener -- Laundry starch
Fabric Softener
To prevent static, add softener before you start washing. It will be automatically added in the final rinse cycle.
Dilute concentrated softeners before you add them. Add up to only 125 ml to the compartment to avoid overflowing.
Undiluted 
Water softener
Rinse out the remaining softener with a splash of water or a damp cloth after washing. If it sticks to the compartment, pull out the drawer and clean it out.
(P.30-31)
Note
Follow the directions on the softener packages for the appropriate amounts. If too much softener is added, it may remain in the detergent drawer.
Laundry starch
Simply add laundry starch to the softener compartment. It will be automatically added to the clothing in the final rinsing process. Make sure that you do not fill the compartment over the MAX level.
If it is hard to pour, dilute the starch slightly with water before adding it.
Note
After using starch, clean the detergent drawer, particularly the softener cover (P.30-31).
Then, run the Rapid 15 programme WITHOUT detergent to remove any excess starch in the drum.
Prewashing compartment
Detergent for prewashing
Whenever you use the Cotton (Prewash) programme ( 
+ ) always put detergent for the prewash in this compartment.
