Operating the washing machine
Placing laundry into the washing machine
Open the door of the washing machine.
Check that there are no foreign objects, laundry or animals in the drum. The drum could contain laundry
from the previous wash. Remove the laundry from the washing machine.
Arrange the laundry evenly inside the washing machine. Fold large items such as bed sheets or covers in
the manner shown in the illustration below.
Insert one item at a time.
When closing the door, make sure that no laundry has been caught in the door.
Check that the washing machine door is properly closed.
Firmly close the washing machine door, otherwise the washing machine will not start.
NOTE:
Maximum loading capacity may wary based on the laundry type you will wash, degree of contamination
and the programme you have chosen etc. Do not exceed maximum dry loading capacity indicated in the
programme table for washing programmes.
You can take the following table of weights as an example.

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 of
the drawer for washing detergents.
We recommend the use of the prewash only for heavily soiled laundry.
For excessively soiled laundry select a program with a prewash, put 1/4 of a detergent measuring cup into
compartment 1 for washing detergents and put the remainder of the measuring cup into compartment 2.
Use washing detergents specially made for automatic washing machines. The dosage of the detergent is
shown on the packaging.
Increased water hardness necessitates the use of an increased amount of detergent in the wash.
Increased laundry loads also necessitate the use of an increased amount of detergent in the wash.
Pour fabric softeners (conditioners) into the fabric softener compartment in the detergent drawer. Do
not go over the MAX mark. Otherwise the fabric softener will fl ow out the siphon into the water used for
washing. If the fabric softener is very thick then dilute it with water before placing it in the compartment.
The thick fabric softener could clog up your siphon and so prevent the fabric softener from entering the
washing machine.
You can use liquid detergents for all washing programs without a prewash. Place the adapter into the 2nd
compartment intended for the main wash and pour in the liquid washing detergent as necessary.
