Running a wash cycle
Opening the door/loading washing
1. Open the door: pull the handle on the door.
When the appliance is switched on, the DOOR and START/PAUSE indica-
tors show whether the door can be opened:
2. Separate washing and load it loosely.
Mix large and small items.
Important: Do not get any washing
caught between the door and the
rubber seal.
3. Firmly push the door shut. Door
catch must audibly click shut.
Adding detergent /conditioner
Important: Only use detergents/conditioners that are suitable for use in
household washing machines.
Add detergent/conditioner in accordance with the detergent/condition-
er manufacturer’s instructions. Observe instructions on the packaging.
The amount of detergent used depends on:
– the degree of soiling,
– the load size
– the hardness of the tap water.
• If the manufacturer does not make any recommendations with regard
to small volumes of washing: For a half-load use a third less, and for a
very small load use only the half the amount of detergent that is rec-
ommended for a full load.
• Water softener should be used from water hardness range 2 (=medi-
um). The amount of detergent used can then always be that as for
hardness range 1 (=soft). Your local water company will provide you
with information about water hardness in your area.
