HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE

FIRST TIME USE

Remove any manufacturing debris:

•Select the “Synthetics“ programme at a temperature of 60°C..

•Pour a small quantity of detergent powder into the main wash compartment of the detergent dispenser

(maximum 1/3 of the quantity the detergent manufacturer recommends for lightly soiled laundry)..

•Start the programme without adding any laundry (with empty drum)..

•See section “DAILY USE“ for more information on how to select and start a programme..

DAILY USE

PREPARING THE LAUNDRY

Empty pockets

•Coins, paper clips, etc.. could damage the load and the washing machine components..

•Tissues will break down during the wash cycle, and the fragments will have to be subsequently removed by hand..

Close all zippers, buttons, and hooks.. Tie all ribbons or belts

•Insert the smaller garments (e..g.. nylon hosiery, belts, etc..) and garments with hooks (e..g.. braziers) into a fabric bag or a pillowcase with a zipper.. Remove any rings from curtains, or else place the curtains inside a fabric bag together with the rings..

HOW TO USE THE WASHING MACHINE

Fabric type / Symbol on the wash label

•Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool, handwash items..

•Colour

Separate coloured and white items.. Wash new coloured articles separately..

•Size

Wash items of different sizes in the same wash load, to improve washing efficiency and distribution of the articles in the drum..

•Delicates

Wash delicate items separately; they require gentle treatment..

1.Load laundry

•Open the machine lid by pulling it upwards..

•Open the drum, by pushing the drum flap release..

•Load the articles one at a time loosely into the drum, without overfilling.. Observe the load sizes given in the “PROGRAMME CHART“ table.. Overloading the machine will result in unsatisfactory washing results and creased laundry.. Do not use the flaps to push the laundry into the drum..

2.Close the drum

•Hold both flaps in the middle, the rear flap over the front flap..

ATTENTION: Check that no laundry gets stuck between the flaps, or between flaps and drum.. Make sure that the drum flaps are properly locked - depending on the model:

•All metal hooks must be properly hooked inside the rear door flap..

• The slider of the front flap must slightly overlap the rear flap..

3. Add detergent

!Do not use liquid detergent for the main wash when having activated the “Prewash“ option..

!Do not use liquid detergent when selecting a later cycle start..

Add detergent (and additives/softener) into the relative compartments as described in section “DETERGENT DISPENSER“.. Observe the dosing recommendations on the detergent pack..

Correct dosing of detergent / additives is important, because:

•it optimizes the cleaning result

•it avoids irritating residues of surplus detergent in your laundry

•it saves money by avoiding waste of surplus detergent

•it protects the washing machine by avoiding calcification of components

•it respects the environment by avoiding unnecessary environmental burden

Note: Too much detergent can result in excess foam formation, which reduces washing efficiency.. If the washing machine detects too much foam, it may prevent spinning, or prolong the programme duration and increase the water consumption (see also remarks on foam formation in the “TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE“).. Insufficient detergent may result in grey laundry and also calcifies the heating system, drum and hoses..

Using starch powder

•Wash your laundry in the desired wash programme..

•Prepare the starch solution according to the starch manufacturer’s instructions..

•Fill the prepared starch solution (maximum 100 ml) into the softener chamber of the detergent dispenser..

•Close the lid and start programme “Rinse & Spin“ ..

4.Close the lid so that you can hear it click shut..

5.Set the desired programme

Select the required programme with the “Programme selector“ dial (“KNOB“).. The duration of the wash cycle is shown on the display.. The washing machine automatically displays the default temperature and spin speed settings possible for the selected programme.. Adjust the spin speed setting if needed with the relative button..

Change spin speed, if needed

The spin speed can be changed by pressing the “Spin“ button.. The indicator of the predefined spin speed lights up..

Select options, if needed

Press the button to select the option; the respective button LED indicator illuminates..

Press the button again to cancel the option; the light extinguishes..

!When the combination of programme and additional option(s) is not possible, the indication lights switch off automatically..

!Unsuitable combinations of options are deselected automatically..

HINTS AND TIPS

RULES FOR SEPARATING LAUNDRY

•Fabric type / indications on label (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetic, wool, handwash items)

•Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash new coloured items separately)

•Size (wash items of different sizes in the same load to improve washing efficacy and weight distribution in the drum)

•Delicates (place small items – such as nylon stockings – and garments with clasps – such as braziers – in a laundry bag or in a pillow case with a zip)..

WASH SYMBOLS ON GARMENT LABELS

The value given in the tub symbol is the maximum temperature possible for washing the garment..

Normal mechanical action

Reduced mechanical action Much reduced mechanical action

Hand wash only

Do not wash

CLEAN THE WATER FILTER REGULARLY

SAVING ENERGY AND PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

•Keeping within the load limits indicated in the “PROGRAMME CHART“ will optimise energy, water and detergent consumption and reduce washing times..

•Do not exceed the detergent quantities recommended by the detergent manufacturer..

•Save energy by using a 60 °C instead of a 95 °C wash programme, or by using a 40 °C instead of a 60 °C wash programme.. We recommend using the “eCotton“ the 60 °C programme for cotton garments, which is longer, but uses less energy..

•To save energy and time when washing, select highest spin speed available for the programme to reduce the residual water remaining in the garments at the end of the wash cycle..

•Pretreat any stains with an appropriate stain remover, or else dampen any dried-on stains with water prior to washing, as this will reduce the need to use a high temperature wash programme..

•Use the “Colours 15°“ programme for lightly soiled coloured garments; this will reduce the amount of energy used to heat the water..

•This is needed to prevent the filter from blocking and preventing the water from draining correctly..

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

For any cleaning and maintenance, switch off and unplug the washing machine..

Do not use flammable fluids to clean the washing machine..

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR OF THE WASHING MACHINE

Exterior:

•Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outer parts of the washing machine..

•Do not use glass or general purpose cleaners, scouring powder or similar to clean the control panel – these substances might damage the printing..

Interior:

•After each washing, leave the Lid open for sometime to allow the inside of the appliance to dry..

•If you never or seldom wash your laundry at 95°C, we recommend to occasionally run a 95°C programme without laundry, adding a small amount of detergent, to keep the interior of the appliance clean..

•Check the condition of the lid seal periodically and clean it from time to time with a damp cloth..

CHECKING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE

Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks.. If damaged, replace it by a new hose available through our After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer..

Depending on the hose type:

If the inlet hose has a transparent coating, periodically check if the colour intensifies locally.. If yes, the hose may have a leak and should be replaced..

For water stop hoses: check the small safety valve inspection window (see arrow).. If it is red, the water stop function was triggered, and the hose must be replaced by a new one..

For unscrewing this hose, press the release button (if available) while unscrewing the hose..
