PART 4: WASHING LAUNDRY
•
Connect the washing machine to the power socket.
•
Open the water inlet.
First wash cycle
There may be some water left over inside the washing machine from the factory tests. We therefore recommend
to perform the fi rst wash without laundry so as to drain this water; put half a measure of standard detergent
into compartment 2 and select the program for cotton at 90 °C.
Before actually washing
Sorting laundry
•
Sort the laundry according to its type (cotton, synthetics, delicates, wool, etc.), washing temperature and
the degree of dirtiness.
•
Never wash whites together with coloured laundry.
•
Because your new coloured laundry may release some of its colour, wash it separately.
•
Before placing the laundry into the washing machine check pockets for any forgotten items. In this way
you will prevent damaging your clothes and the washing machine.
•
Do up zips and buttons on the laundry.
•
From curtains and drapes remove the plastic or metal hooks or insert them into a wash bag and tie it up.
•
Turn clothing such as pants, knitted fabrics, T-shirts and singlets inside out.
•
Wash small items such as socks and handkerchiefs in a wash bag.

Placing clothing inside the washing machine
•
Open the door of the washing machine.
•
Spread the laundry evenly inside the washing machine.
•
Insert one item at a time.
•
When closing the door, make sure that no laundry has been caught in the door.
•
Firmly close the washing machine door, otherwise the washing machine will not start.
Detergent dosage
The amount of detergent you use in the washing machine depends on the following criteria:
•
The consumption of detergent changes with the degree of dirtiness of the laundry. Do not use a prewash
for lightly soiled laundry and use a small amount of detergent in compartment 2 for laundry detergents.
•
For excessively soiled laundry select a program with a prewash, put ¼ of a detergent measuring cup into
compartment 1 for laundry detergents and put the remainder of the measuring cup into compartment 2.
•
Use laundry detergents specially made for automatic washing machines. The dosage of the detergent
is shown on the packaging.
•
Increase water hardness necessitates the use of an increased amount of detergent in the wash.
