Check that your domestic electrical installation
can take the maximum load required (2.0 kW),
also taking into account any other appliances
in use.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility
for damage or injury through failure to comply
with the above safety precaution. Should the
appliance power supply cable need to be
replaced, this should be carried out by our
Service Centre.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket.
Important!
Ensure that the electrical and water
connections comply with the installation
instructions.
Run a cotton cycle at 90 °C, without any
laundry in the machine, to remove any
manufacturing residue from the drum and
tub. Pour 1/2 a measure of detergent into
the dispenser drawer and start the machine.
First Use
Daily Use
Follow the wash code symbols on each
garment label and the manufacturer’s washing
instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites,
coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.
Sorting the laundry
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners,
hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long
tapes.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special
detergent or detergent paste. Treat curtains
with special care. Remove hooks or tie them
up in a bag or net.
Never wash whites and coloureds together.
Whites may lose their “whiteness” in the
wash.
New coloured items may run in the first
wash; they should therefore be washed
separately the first time.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Make sure that no metal objects are left
in the laundry (e.g. coins, hair clips,
safety pins, pins).
Before loading the laundry
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For
dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
special detergent then rub in the soap and
water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain
remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain; treat several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine,
lay the garment on a soft surface and dab the
stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just
water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to
treat them prior to washing.
