    fuse.
    •  The specified voltage must be equal to 
    your mains voltage.
    •  Do not make connections via extension 
    cables or multi-plugs.
    B Damaged power cables must be 
    replaced by the Authorized Service 
    Agents.
    Electrical requirements 
    Before you insert the plug into the wall 
    socket make sure that the voltage and 
    the frequency shown in the rating label 
    corresponds to your electricity supply.
    We recommend that this appliance be 
    connected to the mains supply via a 
    suitable switched and fused socket in a 
    readily accessible position.
    Should the mains lead of the appliance 
    become damaged or need replacing at 
    any time, it must be replaced by a special 
    purpose made mains lead which can only 
    be obtained from a Authorised Service 
    Agent.
    B This appliance must be earthed
    If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for 
    your socket, then the plug should be cut off 
    and an appropriate plug fitted.
    Destroy the old plug, which is cut off as 
    a plug with a bared cord could cause a 
    shock hazard if inserted into a socket 
    elsewhere in the house.
    The moulded plug on this appliance 
    incorporates a 13A fuse. Should the fuse 
    need to be replaced an ASTA approved 
    BS1362 fuse of the same rating must be 
    used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. 
    In the event of losing the fuse cover, the 
    plug must not be used until a replacement 
    fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the 
    replacement fuse cover must be the same 
    colour as that visible on the pin face of the 
    plug. Fuse covers are available from any 
    good electrical store.
    Important
    Fitting a different plug
    As the colours of the wires in the mains 
    lead of this appliance may not correspond 
    with the coloured markings identifying the 
    terminals on your plug, proceed as follows: 1 
    Connect the green - yellow or green 
    (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug 
    marked ‘E’ or with the symbol f or 
    coloured green and yellow or green.
    2  Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the 
    terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or 
    coloured black.
    3  Connect the brown (live) wire to the 
    terminal in the plug marked ‘L’ or 
    coloured red.
    With the alternative plugs a 13A fuse must 
    be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the 
    main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified 
    electrician.

    the product in an ecological and energy-
    efficient manner.
    •  Operate the product in the highest 
    capacity allowed by the programme 
    you have selected, but do not overload; 
    see, “Programme and consumption 
    table”.
    •  Always follow the instructions on the 
    detergent packaging.
    •  Wash slightly soiled laundry at low 
    temperatures.
    •  Use faster programmes for small 
    quantities of lightly soiled laundry.
    •  Do not use prewash and high 
    temperatures for laundry that is not 
    heavily soiled or stained.
    •  If you plan to dry your laundry in a 
    dryer, select the highest spin speed 
    recommended during washing 
    process. 
    •  Do not use detergent in excess of 
    the amount recommended on the 
    detergent package.
    Sorting the laundry

    Preparing laundry for washing
    • 
    Laundry items with metal attachments 
    such as, underwired bras, belt buckles 
    or metal buttons will damage the 
    machine. Remove the metal pieces or 
    wash the clothes by putting them in a 
    laundry bag or pillow case.  
    						
    							14EN
    •  Take out all substances in the pockets 
    such as coins, pens and paper clips, 
    and turn pockets inside out and brush. 
    Such objects may damage the product 
    or cause noise problem.
    •  Put small size clothes such as infant’s 
    socks and nylon stockings in a laundry 
    bag or pillow case.
    •  Place curtains in without compressing 
    them. Remove curtain attachment 
    items.
    •  Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and 
    mend rips and tears.
    •  Wash “machine washable” or “hand 
    washable” labeled products only with 
    an appropriate programme.
    •  Do not wash colours and whites 
    together. New, dark coloured cottons 
    release a lot of dye. Wash them 
    separately.
    •  Tough stains must be treated properly 
    before washing. If unsure, check with a 
    dry cleaner.
    •  Use only dyes/colour changers 
    and limescale removers suitable for 
    machine wash. Always follow the 
    instructions on the package.
    •  Wash trousers and delicate laundry 
    turned inside out.
    •  Keep laundry items made of Angora 
    wool in the freezer for a few hours 
    before washing. This will reduce pilling.
    •  Laundry that are subjected to materials 
    such as flour, lime dust, milk powder, 
    etc. intensely must be shaken off 
    before placing into the machine. Such 
    dusts and powders on the laundry 
    may build up on the inner parts of 
    the machine in time and can cause 
    damage.
    Correct load capacity
    The maximum load capacity depends on 
    the type of laundry, the degree of soiling  and the washing programme desired.
    The machine automatically adjusts the 
    amount of water according to the weight of 
    the loaded laundry.
    A 
    Follow the information in the 
    “Programme and consumption table”. 
    When overloaded, machine’s washing 
    performance will drop. Moreover, noise 
    and vibration problems may occur.

    Using detergent and softener
    Detergent Drawer
    The detergent drawer is composed of three 
    compartments:
    - (I) for prewash
    - (II) for main wash
    – (III) for softener
    – (*) in addition, there is siphon piece in the 
    softener compartment.
    C The detergent dispenser may be in two 
    different types according to the model 
    of your machine as seen above.
    Detergent, softener and other cleaning 
    agents
    •  Add detergent and softener before 
    starting the washing programme.
    •  Never open the detergent drawer while 
    the washing programme is running!
    •  When using a programme without 
    prewash, do not put any detergent 
    into the prewash compartment 
    (compartment nr. I). 
    •  In a programme with prewash, do not 
    put liquid detergent into the prewash 
    compartment (compartment nr. I).
    •  Do not select a programme with 
    prewash if you are using a detergent 
    bag or dispensing ball. Place the 
    detergent bag or the dispensing ball 
    directly among the laundry in the 
    machine.
    •  If you are using liquid detergent, do 
    not forget to place the liquid detergent 
    cup into the main wash compartment 
    (compartment nr. II).
    Choosing the detergent type
    The type of detergent to be used depends 
    on the type and colour of the fabric.
    •  Use different detergents for coloured 
    and white laundry.
    •  Wash your delicate clothes only with 
    special detergents (liquid detergent, 
    wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for 
    delicate clothes.  • 
    When washing dark coloured clothes 
    and quilts, it is recommended to use 
    liquid detergent.
    •  Wash woolens with special detergent 
    made specifically for woolens.
    A Use only detergents manufactured 
    specifically for washing machines.
    A Do not use soap powder.
    Adjusting detergent amount
    The amount of washing detergent to be 
    used depends on the amount of laundry, 
    the degree of soiling and water hardness. 
    Read the manufacturer’s instructions on 
    the detergent package carefully and follow 
    the dosage values.
    •  Do not use amounts exceeding the 
    dosage quantities recommended 
    on the detergent package to avoid 
    problems of excessive foam, poor 
    rinsing, financial savings and finally, 
    environmental protection.
    •  Use lesser detergent for small amounts 
    or lightly soiled clothes.
    •  Use concentrated detergents in the 
    recommended dosage.
    Using softeners
    Pour the softener into the softener 
    compartment of the detergent drawer.
    •   Use the dosages recommended on the 
    package.
    •   Do not exceed the (>max
    						
    							16EN
     
    If the product does not contain a liquid 
    detergent cup:
    • Do not use liquid detergent for the 
    prewash in a programme with prewash.
    •  Use the detergent manufacturer’s 
    measuring cup and follow the 
    instructions on the package.
    •  Liquid detergent stains your clothes 
    when used with Delayed Start function. 
    If you are going to use the Delayed 
    Start function, do not use liquid 
    detergent.
    Using gel and tablet detergent
    When using tablet, gel, etc. detergents, 
    read the manufacturer’s instructions on 
    the detergent package carefully and 
    follow the dosage values. If there is not 
    any instruction on the package, apply the 
    following.
    •  If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal 
    and your machine does not contain 
    a special liquid detergent cup, put 
    the gel detergent into the main wash 
    detergent compartment during first 
    water intake. If your machine contains 
    a liquid detergent cup, fill the detergent 
    into this cup before starting the 
    programme.
    •  If the gel detergent thickness is not 
    fluidal or in the shape of capsule liquid 
    tablet, put it directly into the drum 
    before washing.
    •  Put tablet detergents into the main 
    wash compartment (compartment 
    nr. II) or directly into the drum before 
    washing.
    C Tablet detergents may leave residues 
    in the detergent compartment. If you 
    encounter such a case, place the tablet  detergent between the laundry, close 
    to the lower part of the drum in future 
    washings.
    C 
    Use the tablet or gel detergent without 
    selecting the prewash function.
    Using starch
    •  Add liquid starch, powder starch or the 
    dyestuff into the softener compartment 
    as instructed on the package.
    •  Do not use softener and starch 
    together in a washing cycle.
    •  Wipe the inside of the machine with 
    a damp and clean cloth after using 
    starch.
    Using bleaches
    •  Select a programme with prewash 
    and add the bleaching agent at the 
    beginning of the prewash. Do not put 
    detergent in the prewash compartment. 
    As an alternative application, select a 
    programme with extra rinse and add 
    the bleaching agent while the machine 
    is taking water from the detergent 
    compartment during first rinsing step.
    •  Do not use bleaching agent and 
    detergent by mixing them.
    •  Use just a little amount (approx. 50 
    ml) of bleaching agent and rinse the 
    clothes very well as it causes skin 
    irritation. Do not pour the bleaching 
    agent onto the clothes and do not use 
    it for coloured clothes. 
    •  When using oxygen based bleaches, 
    follow the instructions on the package 
    and select a programme that washes 
    at a lower temperature. 
    •  Oxygen based bleaches can be used 
    together with detergents; however, 
    if its thickness is not the same with 
    the detergent, put the detergent first 
    into the compartment nr. “II” in the 
    detergent drawer and wait until the 
    detergent flows while the machine 
    is taking in water. Add the bleaching 
    agent from the same compartment 
    while the machine is still taking in water.
    Using limescale remover
    •   When required, use limescale removers 
    manufactured specifically for washing 
    machines only. 
    •   Always follow instructions on the 
    package.

    means higher power consumption.
    C For further programme details, see 
    "Programme and consumption table".
    Main programmes 
    Depending on the type of fabric, use the 
    following main programmes.
    • Cottons
    You may wash your normally soiled 
    durable cotton and linen laundry in this 
    programme with the highest energy and 
    water saving compared to all other wash 
    programmes suitable for cottons. Actual  water temperature may differ from the 
    declared cycle temperature. Programme 
    duration may automatically be shortened 
    during later stages of the programme if you 
    wash less amount (e.g. ½ capacity or less) 
    of laundry. In this case energy and water 
    consumption will be further decreased 
    giving you the opportunity for a more 
    economical wash. This feature is available 
    for certain models having remaining time 
    display.
    • Synthetics
    Use this programme to wash your synthetic 
    clothes (shirts, blouses, synthetic/cotton 
    blends, etc.). It washes with a gentle action 
    and has a shorter washing cycle compared 
    to the Cottons programme.
    For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 
    40˚C programme with prewash function 
    selected. As their meshed texture causes 
    excessive foaming, wash the veils/tulle 
    by putting little amount of detergent into 
    the main wash compartment. Do not put 
    detergent in the prewash compartment.
    • Woollens
    Use this programme to wash your woolen 
    clothes. Select the appropriate temperature 
    complying with the tags of your clothes. 
    Use appropriate detergents for woolens.
    Additional programmes 
    For special cases, additional programmes 
    are available in the machine.
    C 
    Additional programmes may differ 
    according to the model of the machine.
    • Delicates 30
    Use this programme to wash your delicate 
    clothes. It washes with a gentle action 
    without any interim spin compared to the 
    Synthetics programme.
    • Hand Wash
    Use this programme to wash your woolen/
