How to use the washing machine

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 (depends on model).

Sort the laundry

Prepare the laundry

Open the door

Load the laundry and close the door.

Choose and measure out the detergent and additives

Sort the laundry according to:

Fabric type / care label symbol

Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool, handwashed 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 a special programme for Wool , curtains and other delicates. Always remove curtain glides or wash curtains with the glides inside a cotton bag. Use the special program for handwash fabrics. Wash small articles (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.) and articles with hooks (e.g. bras) in special cotton bags for washing machines or in zipped pillow cases.

Empty all pockets

Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage your laundry and the appliance drum.

Closures

Close zips and hooks and eyes; loose belts or ribbons should be tied together.

Stain removal

Blood, milk, egg etc. are generally removed by the enzyme phase of the programme.

To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and fruit stains etc. add a stain removing agent in 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 press the button inside the handle and pull. If the child lock is active, deactivate it.

For optimal washing results, place items loosely into the washing machine. Close the door.

The type of detergent depends on:

The type of fabric (cottons, synthetics, delicates, 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).
