PREPARING THE WASH
1.Sort the laundry according to...
• Type of fabric / care label symbol
Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool, handwashed items
• Colour
Separate coloured and white items. Wash new coloured articles separately
•Size
Laundry items of different sizes distribute themselves better in the drum and optimise the washing and spinning action
• Delicates
Wash small items (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.) and items with hooks (e.g. bras) in a washbag or pillow case with a zip fastener. Always remove curtain glides or wash curtains with the glides inside a cotton bag
2.Empty all pockets
Coins, safety pins etc. can damage the laundry, drum and tub.
3.Closures
Close zips and hooks and eyes; Tie loose belts or straps together.
Stain removal
Blood, milk, eggs etc. are generally removed by the automatic enzyme phase of the programme
To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and fruit stains etc. add a stain remover to the detergent dispenser chamber
Pre-treat heavily-soiled areas with stain remover if necessary
Dyeing
Only use dyes that are suitable for washing machines
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Plastic and rubber parts of the washing machine can be stained by dyes
Loading the laundry
1.
Open the door.
2.
Unfold the laundry and place it loosely in the drum. Observe the load sizes given in the Quick Reference Guide.
Note:
overloading the machine will result in
unsatisfactory washing results and creased laundry.

DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES
The choice of detergent depends on:
type of fabric (cottons, easy care/synthetics, delicate items, wool).
Note:
Use only specific detergents for washing
wool
colour
the wash temperature
degree and type of soiling
Remarks:
Whitish residues on dark fabrics are caused by insoluble compounds used in modern phosphate­free powder detergents. If this occurs, shake or brush out the fabric or use liquid detergents.
Use only detergents and additives specifically produced for domestic washing machines.
When using descaling agents, dyes or bleaches for the pre-wash, make sure that they are suitable for use in domestic washing machines. Descaler could contain components which can attack parts of your washing machine
Do not use any solvents (e.g. turpentine, benzine). Do not wash fabrics in the machine which have been treated with solvents or flammable liquids.
Dosage
Follow the dosage recommendations on the detergent pack. They depend on:
degree and type of soiling
size of wash full load follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions; half load: 3/4 the amount used for a full load; Minimum load (about 1 kg): 1/2 the amount used for a full load
water hardness in your area (request information from the water company). Soft water requires less detergent than hard water (refer to water hardness table)
Notes:
Too much detergent can result in excess foam formation. The cleaning effect deteriorates. If the washing machine detects too much foam, it may prevent spinning.
Insufficient detergent may result in grey laundry in time and also calcifies the heating system, drum and hoses.

Notes:
Keep detergents and additives in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children.
Liquid detergents can be used for programmes with prewash. In this case only measure in a powder detergent for the main wash.
To prevent dispensing problems when using highly concentrated powder and liquid detergents, use the special detergent ball or bag supplied with the detergent and place it directly inside the drum.
When using descaling agents, bleaches or dyes, make sure that they are suitable for washing machines. Descalers could contain components that can attack parts of your washing machine.
Do not use any solvents in the washing machine (e. g. turpentine, benzine).
If you use starch powder, proceed as follows:
1.
Wash your laundry using the desired wash programme.
2.
Then stir the starch in with water in a beaker.
3.
Select the “Rinse and Spin” programme, reduce the speed to 800 rpm and start the programme.
4.
Pull out the detergent drawer until you can see about 3 cm. of chamber .
5.
Pour the starch solution into chamber while the water is running into the detergent drawer.
6.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Depending on the model, your washing machine is equipped with various automatic safety functions. This enables faults to be detected in good time and the safety system can react appropriately.
These faults are frequently so minor that they can be solved within a few minutes.
The appliance will not start, no lamp lights up.
Check whether:
the mains plug is inserted into the socket;
the wall socket is functioning correctly (use a table lamp or similar);
a programme is selected correctly;
“On/Off”
the (depending on model) has been pressed.
“Start/Pause”
or
button
The appliance will not start, but...(varies depending on model) ...the “Start/Pause” lamp is flashing.
Check whether:
the appliance door is properly closed (child safety);
the programme has been changed;
the water tap is still closed. For models with an indication “Water tap closed”, the red indication lights up. Open the tap and press button.
“Start/Pause”
...the “On/Off” lamp is on.
Check whether:
the appliance door is properly closed (child safety);
a programme has been selected and the programme is started;
the water tap is open. If not, open the tap and switch the appliance first off, then on.
The appliance stops during the programme (varies depending on model).
Check whether:
“Rinse Hold”
the option by pressing the button again or by choosing the “Drain” programme;
another programme has been selected. Reselect the desired programme and press the
“Start/Pause”
lamp is on, terminate this
button;
•“Start/Pause” “Start/Pause”
“Rinse Hold”
the this option by pressing the button again or by choosing the “Drain” programme;
•“On/Off”
the washing machine safety system has been activated (see fault description table).
Detergent and additive product residues in dispenser at end of wash.
Check whether:
the siphon is correctly installed and clean (see “Care and Maintenance”);
enough water is being supplied. The mesh filters between the inlet hose and the tap could be blocked (see “Care and Maintenance”). Check and clean the filter two or three times a year (see “Removing the filter”).
The appliance vibrates during the spin cycle.
Check whether:
the appliance is levelled and solidly installed on all four feet (see “Installation Guide”);
the transit bolts have been removed. The transit bolts must be removed before the appliance can be used (see “Installation Guide”).
Final spin results are poor:
The appliance has an imbalance detection and correction system. If individual heavy articles are loaded (bathmat, bathrobe, etc.) this system may reduce the spin speed automatically to protect the appliance or even interrupt the spin cycle altogether, if the imbalance is too high even after several spin starts.
If the laundry is still too wet at the end of the cycle, add smaller articles of laundry to balance the load and repeat the spin cycle.
Excessive foam formation may prevent spinning. Ensure correct amount of detergent is used
No water or insufficient water supply:
the appliance has a safety hose and the safety valve has opened (red indicator in the safety valve inspector window). In this case replace it with a new safety hose.
What should I do when the automatic safety system detects a malfunction? (
depending on model)
The programme is interrupted and various indicators (if available) point to the source of the fault.
