6.1 Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer (as required)

Cleaning the detergent compartments

▸ Pull the detergent dispenser drawer out as far as it will go, push the

release lever to the left and remove the detergent dispenser drawer.

▸ Wash out the detergent compartments.

▸ Clean the duct under the pre-wash detergent compartment l.

Cleaning the siphon and suction tube

▸ Pull siphon1 in fabric conditioner compartment upwards and out.

▸ Clean the siphon1 and suction tube2.

▸ Insert the siphon again correctly.

6.2 Cleaning the water inlet filter

Test the water inlet for leaks following maintenance work.

▸ To avoid blockages, periodically check and, if necessary, clean the

water inlet filter 1.

6.3 Emergency draining

The water in the appliance may be hot. Scalding hazard! Allow to cool down be­fore emergency draining.

In the event of a blocked water outlet or drain pump, a malfunction or a power failure, if there
is water still in the appliance it must be drained off as follows:

▸ Open the drain tray by pressing it bottom right or with the use of the

liquid detergent flap.

▸ Fold the drain tray right down. It also functions as a receptacle for col-

lecting any water that runs out.

28

▸ Carefully release the foreign body trap somewhat by turning it anti-

clockwise and steadily drain off the water.

▸ Close the foreign body trap by turning it clockwise and remove the

drain tray from the front.

▸ Empty the drain tray and then put it back, pushing it in straight as far

as it will go.

Note

: The drain tray can be removed and a larger receptacle used in
its place to draining off the water. The appliance can hold up to 30
litres of water.

6.4 Cleaning the foreign body trap

Note

: Clean the foreign body trap at regular intervals as well as after washing, for instance,

pet blankets or other wash items that cause a thick build-up of fluff.

▸ Drain off any residual water (see page 28).

▸ Remove any foreign objects (buttons, coins, etc.) from around the im-

peller 1.

▸ Using the emergency door release tool 2, check that the drain pump

impeller can turn.

Note

: The impeller1 may turn stiffly. This is construction related and
does not indicate the presence of any foreign object or defect. If the
impeller does not turn, please contact our Customer Services.

▸ Push the foreign body trap in as far as it will go and then turn clock-

wise as far as it will go.

▸ Put the drain tray back and close it to.

9.3 VAS Vibration Absorbing System

As the washing drum starts to spin, if the control unit detects that the load is out of balance it
will interrupt the spinning action once or more. In this case, the appliance tries to improve the
distribution of the wash load in the washing drum.
When spinning, at all spin speeds the load is, where necessary, actively balanced in the
washing drum, whereby the hollow vanes are filled with the necessary quantity of water. This
ensures optimal care and draining of the washing.

9.4 Water and energy economy

During the first few minutes of a programme running, sensors automatically determine the
type and the size of the load being washed.
Water levels are then optimally adjusted to the wash load so that only the strict amount of wa­ter needed is used.

9.5 EcoStandby

The appliance is equipped with an automatic energy-saving «EcoStandby» function to avoid
consuming energy unnecessarily.
All displays go out within minutes of a programme finishing. Energy consumption is reduced
to an absolute minimum. The safety functions, however, remain activated.

10 Washing tips

10 Washing tips

10.1 Energy and water economy

▪ Where possible fill the drum to the maximum load capacity of the relevant programme.

▪ Select «Pre-wash» or «Soaking» only for washing that is heavily soiled or stained.

▪ For lightly soiled washing without staining select the «20°C» main wash programme or

the additional function «Sprint».

▪ Select additional function «Eco» if the duration of the programme or the germ-killing effect

of high temperatures do not play a role.

▪ Select additional function «OptiTime» if washing using a delayed start or the germ-killing

effect of high temperatures do not play a role.

Spin speed

How much energy is consumed by subsequent tumble drying depends on the spin speed
set. The higher the spin speed set, the lower the remaining moisture content of the washing
at the end of the programme.

10.2 Avoiding damage

▪ Follow the fabric care symbols on garment labels.

▪ The wash temperature selected should agree with the recommended temperature range of

the washing detergent to ensure the washing detergent is at its most effective.

▪ Wash white and coloured textiles separately.

▪ Empty pockets and turn inside out. Remove any foreign objects (coins, nails, paper clips,

etc.).

▪ Empty and brush out pockets of work overalls worn in the metal industry. Metal shavings

can damage the washing and cause rust stains.

▪ Fasten hook and eye fasteners and zips. These can damage the laundry and the drum.

▪ Fasten cloth belts, apron ties and duvet and pillow cases to avoid them getting tangled up.

▪ Wash smaller items (e.g. nylon tights, belts) and items with zips and hooks in a washing

net or cushion cover.

▪ Remove stains before washing using a suitable stain remover.

▪ Pre-treat heavily soiled areas (collars, cuffs, etc.) with soap, special detergent or paste.

▪ Textiles, such as dog or horse blankets, that are covered in animal hair should be brushed

out before washing.
