Environmental protection/
economy tips
– Separate out the various waste materials of the packaging and take
them to the nearest collection point.
– Always fill the appliance with a maximum amount of laundry for the
relevant programme.
– Wash normally soiled laundry without a prewash.
–Instead of Cottons/Coloureds 90 °C, select the Coloureds eco 60 °C
programme –> page12.
This gives comparable results, but uses less energy.
– Measure the detergent according to the manufacturer's instructions
and in line with the local water hardness.
– If the laundry is subsequently dried in a tumble drier, select the spin
speed according to the tumble drier manufacturer's instructions
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive

Description of the
washer dryer
in 3 ways –> page16:
– washing only
– drying only
– successive washing and drying.
The successive wash-dry programme shifts automatically from the wash
cycle to the dry cycle without further intervention.
Drying is achieved using the condensation principle. The condensate that
is produced during drying runs via the drain hose and into the drainage
reservoir.
Caution: the water supply hose and water drain hose must be correctly
connected during washing and drying –> page28. The tap must be open.
A safety device prevents the door from being opened during operation.
Before opening
Make sure that there is no water in the drum and that the drum is not
moving.

Water connection
* depends on the model
Drainage into a siphon
Water supply
To prevent leaks or water damage, you must observe the instructions in
this section.
If in doubt, have a technician connect the appliance.
The water supply and drain hoses can be routed to the left of right,
depending on installation conditions.
Do not use a used inlet hose. Only use the inlet hose supplied or one
which was purchased from an authorised specialist retailer.
Do not allow the water supply hose to be:
– kinked or squashed
– altered or cut (strength no longer guaranteed).
Note the water pressure in the mains supply:
The water pressure should be between 50-900 kPa (0.5-9 bar) (at least
8 litres of water flow out per minute when the tap is turned on).
If the water pressure is higher, a pressure reducing valve must be fitted.
Connect the cold-water supply hose (blue union nut) to the cold water tap
with ¾" pipe (3/4" = 26,4 mm) thread.
For hot water supply*, connect the hose with the red union nut to the hot
water tap. The hot water temperature must not exceed 60 °C.
Only tighten plastic screw connections by hand.
Do not remove the filter from the supply hose.
Water drainage
After connecting the water supply hose:
– Turn the tap on fully.
– Check the connections for leaks.
– Do not kink the drain hose or pull it lengthways.
– Height difference between the installation surface and the drain:
max. 90 cm, min. 50 cm.
Secure the connection with a 24-40 mm hose clamp (available from
specialist retailers).
28
Electrical connection
The washer-dryer must only be connected to an alternating current supply
via a properly installed earthed socket.
If a residual current circuit breaker is used, only use a type which displays
this symbol: ‚
Only this symbol guarantees compliance with the currently applicable
regulations.
The mains voltage must match the voltage specifications on the washerdryer (rating plate).
The connected load and fuse required are shown on the rating plate.
Make sure that:
– the mains plug fits the socket.
– the cable cross-section is adequate.
– the earthing system is properly installed.
– the appliance is not standing on the mains cable.
– the mains plug is accessible at all times.
Changes to the mains cable may only be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
Do not use multiple plugs/adapters or extension cables.
Do not plug in or unplug the mains plug with wet hands.
Only pull the mains plug out by the plug itself.
.
Fitting the door hinges
to the washer-dryer
Once the washer-dryer has been installed in a kitchen unit, it can be
concealed with a door. If you wish to do this, you must fit the hinges
supplied to the washer-dryer.
