the wash cycle, the KG Mode will weigh the clothes and update the wash time
remaining on the display every five seconds until the weight has been determined.
Do not try to open the door when the door locked indicator is on, nor open the
dispenser drawer during the wash programme.
If you wish to pause the programme press the Start Pause button; after two minutes
you will be able to open the door. To cancel the programme the programme selector
should be turned to the OFF position. A new programme can be selected after
cancelling the previous programme.
When the programme has finished
Wait approximately two minutes for the door lock to be released. When the door
locked indicator light goes out it will then be safe to open the door.
Switch off the machine by turning the programme selector to the OFF position so that it
will be ready the next time you use the machine (this action resets the memory in the
machine). Open the door and remove the laundry. Disconnect the plug from the mains
power supply and turn off the water supply whenever you finish using it.
Care and Maintenance
The washing machine needs very little maintenance, but regular attention to a few small
details will ensure the continued performance of your washing machine.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, solvent-based cleaners or polishes; wiping
the outside of the machine with a damp cloth will suffice.
Cleaning the soap dispenser
It is advisable to clean the compartments occasionally to remove detergents and
additives. To do this you need to do the following:
Step 1. Pull the drawer out firmly from the machine, but without forcing it.
Step 2. Clean the compartments and the siphon cover under warm running water.
Step 3. Clean the outlet of the soap dispenser to remove any residue of soap powder.
Step 4. Replace the drawer.
Cleaning the door glass
Regularly clean the door glass with a damp cloth. A build up of soiling and residues from
the water may result in water leaking from the door.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the surface.
Cleaning the filter
The washing machine is fitted with a special
filter to prevent items such as coins, buttons,
etc. blocking the discharge hose. These may be
retrieved by:
Step 1. Opening the filter cover.
Step 2. Pull out the corrugated hose (only
available on certain models), remove the
stopper and drain the water into a container.
Step 3. Before removing the filter, place an
absorbent towel below the filter cap to collect
the small amount of water that is likely to be
inside the pump.
