To secure the appliance against improper use turn the plastic screw on the interior of the door. To do this, use the thick rounded corner of the coloured insert from the detergent dispenser or a coin:
•Slot vertical: the door will not lock

BEFORE THE FIRST WASH CYCLE
To remove any residual water used in testing by the manufacturer, we recommend that you carry out a short wash cycle without laundry.
1.Turn on the tap.
2.Close the door.
3.Pour a little detergent (about 30 ml) into the detergent compartment 
.
4.Select and start a short programme (see quick reference guide).
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
