Laundry guidelines
STEP 1 - Sort
Sort the laundry according to these criteria:
• Care Label: Sort the laundry into cottons, mixed fibres, synthetics, silks, wools, and rayon.
• Colour: Separate whites from colours.
• Size: Mixing dierent-sized items together in the drum improves the washing performance.
• Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately using an Easy Iron option for pure, new woollen
items, curtains, and silk items. Check the labels on the items.
Make sure to check the care label on the clothing, and sort them accordingly before starting
the wash.
STEP 2 - Empty pockets
Empty all the pockets of your laundry items
• Metal objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other laundry items as
well as the drum.
Turn clothing with buttons and embroideries inside out
• If pants or jacket zippers are open while washing, the drum may be damaged. Zippers should
be closed and fixed with a string.
• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes. Make sure to tie the
strings before starting the wash.
STEP 3 - Use a laundry net
• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may
break through and tear other laundry items.
• Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs may become caught
around the door. Place them inside a fine laundry net.
• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal vibrations
that could move the washing machine and result in injury.
STEP 4 - Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected course if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do not use the
Prewash option when detergent is manually added into the drum.
English - 20
Untitled-37 202016-02-20 3:18:04
STEP 5 - Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washing machine. Overloading may cause the washing machine to not wash
properly. For the load capacity for the type of clothing, see page 29.
When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin
eciency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended maximum
spin cycle speed is 800 rpm, and the load capacity is 2.0 kg or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “UE” error code is displayed, redistribute the load.
Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance.
STEP 6 - Apply a proper detergent type
The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool),
colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is
designed for automatic washing machines.
• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the
laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are
not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidified. This detergent may remain
after the rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the wool course, use only a neutral liquid detergent. If used with
the Wool course, powder detergent may remain on the laundry and discolour the laundry.

Detergent Guidelines
Auto Dispense
The washing machine provides a two-compartment dispenser: the left compartment for detergent,
and the right compartment for fabric softener. The Auto Dispense unit dispenses an appropriate
amount of detergent and fabric softener into the drum according to the course and cycle.
CAUTION
• Use only a liquid detergent and fabric softener with the Auto Dispense unit.
• Make sure the Auto Dispense unit is inserted completely. The washing machine will not
start operating until the Auto Dispense unit is inserted properly.
• When applying a dierent detergent, make sure to clean the detergent compartment first.
• Do not mix detergent with fabric softener in either compartment.
• To prevent detergent from hardening, do not open the cap once the detergent has been
applied to the compartment.
• Do not use any bleach that may cause corrosion and/or generate gas.
• Do not turn the Auto Dispense unit upside down. The content may spill out of the vents.
• Do not press the outlet at the bottom of the Auto Dispense unit while moving the unit.
The content may leak.
• Use caution when inputting detergent or fabric softener in the unit. The content may spill
around.
• Make sure to remove the Auto Dispense unit before applying detergents.
• When removing the Auto Dispense unit to check the remaining amount of detergent
upon or before an error message, the unit may have some small amount of detergent
remaining or leaking from the bottom of the unit.
• Fully insert the Auto Dispense unit. Incomplete insertion may cause the unit to fail in
dispensing.
• By default, Auto Dispense turns o in the Delicates, Wool, Baby Care, or Outdoor Care
courses.
To enable Auto Dispense in these courses, tap Settings or the Quick Panel Bar > Auto
Dispense, and change the settings as necessary.

Manual Dispense
A
In case you don’t want to use the dispenser (Auto Dispense unit), you can either dose the detergent
directly into the drum or use the provided aqua pebble when applying detergent manually. The
Aqua Pebbles comes in two sizes and are provided as accessories with your appliance. Choose an
Aqua Pebble that is appropriate for the detergent amount.
1. Turn o Auto Detergent.
See “Auto Dispense” on page 33.
2. Apply a powder, gel, or liquid detergent to a proper Aqua
pebble (A). Check the amount marker on the inner side of
the aqua pebble.
3. Insert the aqua pebble near the end of the drum.
When the wash is complete, remove the aqua pebble from the drum and keep it clean for
later use.
CAUTION
• Fabric softener can be applied only using the Auto Dispense unit. Manual input is not
allowed.
• Use caution when inserting the aqua pebble as it is supposed to be balanced at the first
of the wash. Tipping the aqua pebble before the start of a wash may cause detergent
residue on the laundry at the end of the wash, causing discolouration to laundry and/or
reduced washing performance.
• Do not apply detergent to both the auto detergent compartment and the aqua pebble.
• When applying a dierent detergent, make sure to clean the aqua pebble first.
• Do not insert the aqua pebble into a folded blanket or between dierent laundry items.
• Do not select the Pre Wash option when using the aqua pebble.
• A heavy application of detergent may cause the following problems, resulting in a system
failure and/or shortened product life.
• Excessive amounts of detergent cause bubble surpluses and extend the rinse time as a
result.
• This may also cause detergent remaining in the drum after the wash is complete.
• Apply appropriate amounts of detergent according to the specifications of the detergent
manufacturer.
• In case of manual detergent dosage, it is recommended to use the Aqua Pebble when
coloured laundry items are washed.
