Preparation
4.2 Preparing laundry for washing
• Laundry items with metal attachments such as,
underwired bras, belt buckles or metal buttons
will damage the machine. Remove the metal
pieces or wash the clothes by putting them in a
laundry bag or pillow case.
• Take out all substances in the pockets such as
coins, pens and paper clips, and turn pockets
inside out and brush. Such objects may damage
the product especially the glass door or cause
noise problem.
• Put small size clothes such as infant's socks
and nylon stockings in a laundry bag or pillow
case.
• Place curtains in without compressing them.
Remove curtain attachment items.
• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend
rips and tears.
• Wash “machine washable” or “hand washable”
labelled products only with an appropriate
programme.
• Do not wash colours and whites together. New,
dark coloured cottons release a lot of dye. Wash
them separately.
• Tough stains must be treated properly before
washing. If unsure, check with a dry cleaner.
• Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale
removers suitable for machine wash. Always
follow the instructions on the package.
• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned
inside out.
• Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the
freezer for a few hours before washing. This will
reduce pilling.
• Laundry that are subjected to materials such as
flour, lime dust, milk powder, etc. intensely must
be shaken off before placing into the machine.
Such dusts and powders on the laundry may
build up on the inner parts of the machine in
time and can cause damage.
4.3 Things to be done

manufactured specifically for washing
machines.
WARNING: Do not use Powdered Soap.
A
Adjusting detergent amount
The amount of washing detergent to be used
depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of
soiling and water hardness.
• Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage
quantities recommended on the detergent
package to avoid problems of excessive foam,
poor rinsing, financial savings and finally,
environmental protection.
• Use lesser detergent for small amounts or
lightly soiled clothes.
Using softeners
Pour the softener into the softener compartment
of the detergent drawer.
• Do not exceed the (>max<) level marking in the
softener compartment.
• If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with
water before putting it in the detergent drawer.
Using liquid detergents
If the product contains a liquid detergent cup:
• Make sure that you have placed the liquid
detergent cup in compartment nr. "2".
• If the liquid detergent has lost its fluidity, dilute
it with water before putting in the detergent
cup.
16 / EN
Washing Machine /User’s Manual
Preparation
If the product does not contain a liquid
detergent cup:
• Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a
programme with prewash.
• Liquid detergent stains your clothes when used
with Delayed Start function. If you are going to
use the Delayed Start function, do not use liquid
detergent.
Using gel and tablet detergent
Apply the following instructions when using tablet,
gel and similar detergents.
• If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and
your machine does not contain a special liquid
detergent cup, put the gel detergent into the
main wash detergent compartment during first
water intake. If your machine contains a liquid
detergent cup, fill the detergent into this cup
before starting the programme.
• If the gel detergent thickness is not fluidal or in
the shape of capsule liquid tablet, put it directly
into the drum before washing.
• Put tablet detergents into the main wash
compartment (compartment nr. "2") or directly
into the drum before washing.
Tablet detergents may leave residues
in the detergent compartment. If you
C
encounter such a case, place the tablet
detergent between the laundry, close
to the lower part of the drum in future
washings.
Using starch
• Add liquid starch, powder starch or the fabric
dye into the softener compartment.
• Do not use softener and starch together in a
washing cycle.
• Wipe the inside of the machine with a damp
and clean cloth after using starch.
Using bleaches
• Select a programme with prewash and add
the bleaching agent at the beginning of the
prewash. Do not put detergent in the prewash
compartment. As an alternative application,
select a programme with extra rinse and add
the bleaching agent while the machine is taking
water from the detergent compartment during
first rinsing step.
• Do not use bleaching agent and detergent by
mixing them.
• Use just a little amount (approx. 50 ml) of
bleaching agent and rinse the clothes very
well as it causes skin irritation. Do not pour the
bleaching agent onto the clothes and do not
use it for coloured clothes.
• When using oxygen based bleaches, select
a programme that washes at a lower
temperature.
• Oxygen based bleaches can be used together
with detergents; however, if its thickness
is not the same with the detergent, put the
detergent first into the compartment nr. "2"
in the detergent drawer and wait until the
detergent flows while the machine is taking in
water. Add the bleaching agent from the same
compartment while the machine is still taking in
water.

5.5 Programmes
Depending on the type of fabric, use the following
main programmes.
• Cottons
Use this programme for your durable whites and
colourfast cotton clothes. This programme is
suggested for washing heavily soiled items.
• Synthetics
Use to wash your synthetic clothes (shirts,
blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). It washes
with a gentle action and has a shorter washing
cycle compared to the Cottons programme.
For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 40˚C
programme with prewash and anti-creasing
functions selected. As their meshed texture
causes excessive foaming, wash the veils/tulle by
putting little amount of detergent into the main
wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the
prewash compartment.
• Wool

appropriate temperature complying with the tags
of your clothes. Use appropriate detergents for
woolens.

clogging the pump impeller during discharge
of washing water. Therefore the waste water is
discharged without any problems and the service
life of the pump is increased.
If the machine does not drain the water, pump
filter may have been clogged. Filter should be
cleaned when clogged or once in 3 months.
In order to clean the pump filter, first the water
should be drained.
Also, before transporting the machine (for
example when moving to new house) and when
the water has the risk of freezing, water may have
to be fully drained.
CAUTION: Foreign objects which stay

2. Open the filter cover.
3. While some of our products are equipped with
an emergency water drain hose, some are not.
Follow the below procedures in order to drain
water.
If the product has an emergency water
draining hose, in order to drain the water:
inside the pump filter may damage your
machine or cause noise problem.
CAUTION: If the product is not being
used, shut the tap shut, remove mains
pipe and drain the water inside the
machine against any likely freezing.
CAUTION: Shut the tap which the mains
pipe of the product is connected to after
each use.
CAUTION: Temperature of the water
inside the machine may rise up to 90 ºC.
To avoid the burning risk, clean the filter
after the water inside the machine is
cooled down.
