Running a washing cycle
Opening the door/Loading the washing
1.To open the door: gently pull the handle on the door.
When the machine is switched on, the lights (DOOR) and
(START/PAUSE) indicate whether the door can be opened:
2.Unfold washing and load it loosely
into the machine. Mix large and
small items.
Important: Do not get any washing
caught between the door and the
rubber seal.
3.Press the door firmly shut. Door
catch must audibly latch.
Adding detergent/additives
Important: Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use
in domestic washing machines.
Dose detergent and additives according to the instructions of the de-
tergent and additive manufacturers. Follow the instructions on the
packaging.
Dosing depends upon:
the washing’s degree of soiling,
the size of the load
the degree of hardness of the water supply.
If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a
half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the
detergent that is recommended for a full load.
From water hardness 2 (= medium) upwards, water softener should
be used. Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness 1
(= soft). Your local water company will be able to give you informa-
tion about the water hardness in your area.
