• Preparation of the location and electrical, tap water and waste water installations at the place of installation is under customer's responsibility.

• Make sure that the water inlet and discharge hoses as well as the power cable are not folded, pinched or crushed while pushing the product into its place after installation or cleaning procedures.

• Make sure that the installation and electrical connections of the product are performed by authorized service. Manufacturer shall not be held liable for damages that may arise from procedures carried out by unauthorized persons.

• Prior to installation, visually check if the product has any defects on it. If so, do not have it installed. Damaged products cause risks for your safety.

4.1.1 Appropriate installation location

• Place the product on a hard and level floor. Do not put it onto a carpet with high pile or other similar surfaces.

• When the washing machine and drier are placed on top of each other, their total weight –when loaded– amounts to 180 kilograms. Place the product on a solid and flat floor that has sufficient load carrying capacity!

• Do not place the product on the power cable.

• Do not install the product in the environments where the temperature falls below 0 ºC.

• Leave a minimum space of 1 cm between the machine and the furniture.

• On a graduated floor, do not place the product next to the edge or on a platform.

4.1.4 Connecting water supply

The water supply pressure required to run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open tap in one minute to have your machine run smoothly. Attach a pressure

reducing valve if water pressure is higher.

If you are going to use the double water-inlet product as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the supplied stopper to the hot water valve before operating the product. (Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.)

CAUTION: Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the laundry will

get damaged or the product will switch to protection mode and will not operate.

CAUTION: Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on your laundry.

Connect the special water supply hoses supplied with the product to the water inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90 ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water inlet. Make sure that the hot and cold water taps are connected correctly when the product is being installed. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the end of the washing process and wear out.

1 Tighten the nuts of the hose by hand. Never use a tool when

tightening the nuts.

2 When hose connection is completed, check whether there is leak

problems at the connection points by opening the taps fully. If any leaks occur, turn off the tap and remove the nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking the seal. In order to prevent the water leaks and resultant damages, keep the taps closed when you do not use the product.

4.1.5 Connecting the drain hose to the drain

• Attach the end of the drain hose directly to waste water drain, lavatory or bathtub.

CAUTION: Your drain house will be flooded if the hose comes out of its housing during water discharge. Moreover, there

is risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures! In order to prevent such situations and make sure that the machine performs water intake and discharge processes without any problem, fix the drain hose securely.

• Connect the drain hose to a minimum height of 40 cm and a maximum height of 100 cm.

• In case the drain hose is elevated after laying it on the floor level or close to the ground (less than 40 cm above

100cm

• To prevent the waste water to go back into the machine again and to ensure easy drainage, do not immerse the end of the hose into the waste water or do not insert it into the drain for more than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short.

• The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between the drain and the machine.

• If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding an original extension hose. Length of the hose may not be longer than 3.2 m. To avoid water leak failures, the connection between the extension hose and the drain hose of the product must be fitted well with an appropriate clamp as not to come off and leak.

4.1.8 Initial use

Washing Machine / User’s Manual

CAUTION: Damaged power cables must be replaced by the Authorized Service Agents.

Use an anti-limescale suitable for the washing machines.

Some water might have remained in the product due to the quality control processes in the production. It is not harmful for the product.

Before starting to use the product make sure that the preparations are made which are in line with the “Important Safety and Environment Instructions” and the instructions in the “Installation” section. To prepare the product for washing laundry, perform first operation in Drum Cleaning programme. If this program is not available in your machine, apply the method which is described in the section 4.4.2.

37 / EN

4.2 Preparation

4.2.1 Sorting the laundry

* Sort laundry according to type of fabric, color, and degree of soiling and allowable water temperature. * Always obey the instructions given on the garment tags.

4.2.2 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 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” labeled 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.

• Only use the dyes / color changers and descaling agents which are appropriate to 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.

4.2.3 Things to be done for energy saving

Following information will help you use the product in an ecological and energy-efficient manner.

• Operate the product in the highest capacity allowed by the programme you have selected, but do not overload; see, "Programme and consumption table". See, “Programme and consumption table"

• Always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging.

• Wash slightly soiled laundry at low temperatures.

• Use faster programmes for small quantities of lightly soiled laundry.

• Do not use prewash and high temperatures for laundry that is not heavily soiled or stained.

• If you plan to dry your laundry in a dryer, select the highest spin speed recommended during washing process.

• Do not use more detergent than the recommended amount specified on its package.

4.2.4 Loading the laundry

1. Open the laundry cover.

2. Put the laundry items into the machine in a loose manner.

3. Push and close the loading cover until you hear the locking sound. Ensure that no items are caught in the door. The loading door is locked while a programme is running. The door can only be opened a while after the programme comes to an end.

4.2.5 Correct load capacity

The maximum load capacity depends on the type of laundry, the degree of soiling and the washing programme desired. Machine automatically adjusts the water amount according to the weight of the laundry put inside it.

38 / EN

WARNING: Follow the information in the “Programme and consumption table”. When overloaded, machine's washing

performance will drop. Moreover, noise and vibration problems may occur.
