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) .

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 .

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) .

HOW TO USE THE WASHING MACHINE

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 .

• 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 .

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 .
