PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
• Packing
The packaging is marked with the recycling symbol , signifying that it can be 100% recycled.
• Appliance
The appliance is made of recyclable materials. Dispose of the appliance in conformity with environmental regulations. Make it inoperable: pull out the plug and cut off the power cable so that the appliance cannot be connected to the mains.
• Eco-tips
A full load (depending on the programme
-
selected) gives the best energy and water consumption.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Laundry which is lightly to moderately soiled
-
does not require a prewash. Lightly soiled laundry should be washed at a
-
low temperature or with a short programme. When washing small loads press the “Lightly
-
Soiled”/“Half load” button (if present) and use less detergent.
If you wish to dry the laundry in a household
-
dryer, use the highest spin speed (depending on the programme). The dryer will then consume less energy.
Do not exceed the recommended dosages
-
on the detergent packet. Only use bleach or stain remover if
-
absolutely necessary.
The appliance must only be used in the
•
household for the prescribed uses. All connections to the water and electrical
•
mains must be made in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and following local utility company safety regulations (see “Installation Instructions”).
Before any cleaning and maintenance switch
•
off the machine or disconnect it from the mains.
Switch off the washing machine and turn off
•
the tap(s) whenever the machine is not in use.
MOVING AND TRANSPORTING THE APPLIANCE
Pull out the mains plug.
1.
Shut off the water tap(s).
2.
Disconnect the inlet and drain hoses.
3.
Drain residual water from the appliance and
4.
hoses (see “Draining Residual Water”). Fit the transit bolts (see “Installation
5.
Instructions”).
• Never use excessive force to open the door.
Children must not be allowed to play with or
•
inside the machine. Do not rest any weight on the door.
Packaging materials can be dangerous for

Page 11
SORTING THE WASH
1. Sort the load according to:
• Fabric type / care label symbol
Cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics, wool.
• Colours
Separate coloured and white articles. Wash new coloured articles separately.
• Article size
Washing articles of different sizes together improves wash efficiency and distributes the load better in the drum.
• Fabric delicacy
Wash delicates separately. Select the appropriate special programme for machine ­washable wool , curtains or delicates. Either remove curtain hooks or tie into a cloth bag. Only wash machine-washable fabrics. Wash small articles (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.) and articles with hooks (e.g. bras) in a cloth bag or pillow case with zip.
2. Empty all pockets
Coins, safety pins etc. can damage the laundry, drum and tub.
3. Closures
Close zips and hooks and eyes. Loose belts or ribbons should be tied together.
STAIN REMOVAL
Blood, milk, egg, and other organic
•
substances are generally removed by the enzyme phase of the programme. To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and
•
fruit stains, etc. add a biological stain removing agent to the main wash in chamber
or a chlorine bleach in chamber of the detergent drawer (depending on the model). Particularly stubborn stains can be treated
•
with stain remover before the wash.
LOADING THE WASH
Open the door.
1.
Load the articles one at a time loosely into
2.
the drum, without overfilling. Close the door.
3.
LOAD CAPACITY
See the programme overview.
Overloading the machine reduces the
Note:
wash efficiency and encourages creasing.

Page 12
DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES
CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT
The type of detergent depends on
•
the type of fabric (cottons, synthetics, delicates, wool)
Note:
Use only specific detergents for
washing wool.
•
colour
•
wash temperature
•
degree and type of soiling
Note:
•
Whitish residues on dark fabrics are due to the insoluble water softeners in modern phosphate-free detergents. If this occurs, shake or brush out the fabric or use liquid detergents.
•
Keep detergents and additives in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children.
•
Use only detergent and fabric conditioner specifically produced for automatic domestic washing machines.
•
When using water softeners, descaling agents, dyes or bleaches, make sure that they are suitable for use in domestic washing machines.
•
Do not use solvents in the machine (e.g. turpentine, benzine, etc.). Do not wash fabrics in the machine which have been treated with solvents or flammable liquids.
DETERGENT DOSAGES
Do not exceed manufacturers’ recommended dosages as shown on the detergent package. The amounts depend on
•
degree and type of soiling
•
size of wash
-
full load: according to manufacturers’ instructions
-
half load: 3/4 of the normal amount
-
minimum load (about 1 kg): 1/2 the amount used for full load
•
water hardness in your area (request information from the water company): soft water requires less detergent than hard water.
Note:
•
Overdosing the detergent results in excessive foaming and reduces the wash efficiency. If the washing machine detects too much foam, it may prevent spinning.
•
Using insufficient detergent results in grey laundry. The heating element and drum also build up scale.
•
If using chlorine bleach, follow the bleach instructions carefully. Overdosing the bleach can damage the wash.
