How to use the washer-dryer
To remove any residual water used in testing by the manufacturer, we recommend that you carry out a short wash cycle without laundry.
Open the tap. Close the door. Pour a small amount of detergent (about 30 ml) into the detergent dispenser.
Select a short wash programme (see programme chart). Press the ”Start/On Off” button (depending on model).
Sort the laundry Sort the laundry according to:
Fabric type / care label symbol
Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool, hand-wash items.
Colours
Separate coloured and white articles. Wash new coloured articles separately.
Size
Wash items of different sizes in the same load to improve washing efficiency and distribution in the drum.
Delicates
Wash delicates separately: Use the special programme for Wool , curtains and other delicates. Remove
curtain hooks or wash curtains with hooks inside a cloth bag. Use the special program for hand-wash fabrics.
Wash small articles (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.) and items with hooks (e.g. bras) in a special wash bag or in a
zipped-up pillow case.

Empty all pockets
Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage your laundry and the washer-dryer drum.
Fastenings
Close zips and fasten buttons or hooks; loose belts or ribbons should be tied together.
Stain removal
Blood, milk, egg 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 removing agent to the detergent dispenser
or chlorine bleach in compartment (depending on model). Particularly stubborn stains can be treated
with stain remover before the wash.
Dyeing and Bleaching
Commercially available products usually consist of a dye colour, fixing agent and salt. Pour the dye colour, the
fixing agent and then the salt directly into the empty drum. Load the laundry only afterwards. Use exclusively
dyes and bleaches recommended for washing machines. Follow the Manufacturer’s instructions. Plastic and
rubber components of the machine can be stained by dyes. Make sure that all zips are closed and pockets are
empty. Make sure there are no cigarette lighters among the items. Turn the items of clothing inside out.
To open the door pull the handle.
For optimal washing results, place items loosely into the washer-dryer. Close the door.
The type of detergent depends on:
The type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate, wool - when washing woollens remember to use a detergent
suitable for woollens), the colour, the washing temperature, the degree and type of soiling.
Dosage
Follow the dosage recommendations on the detergent pack. For the water hardness in your area, you can
request information from the water company. Soft water requires less detergent than hard water (refer to the
water hardness table in the operating instructions).
