Application/Features Energy-saving programme which washes at 60 °C for lightly to normally soiled whites or coloureds made of cotton/linen. Programme for normally to heavily soiled whites/coloureds made of cotton/linen. Programme for cottons/linen, which is indicated for various wash temperatures. Items which according to their care label are normally washed separately at 40 °C or at 60 °C, can be washed together in this programme. In this way the drum capacity is better used, saving energy.
Before the first wash 1. Open the detergent dispenser drawer. 2. Pour about 1 litre of water through the detergent dispenser drawer into the washing machine. This closes the water container when the next programme is started and the economy valve can function properly. 3. In order to remove any residues from the drum and water container which may have been left during manufacturing, perform the first wash cycle without any washing in the machine.
Running a washing cycle Opening the door/loading washing 1. To open the door: pull the door by the handle. When the machine is switched on, the DOOR light and the START/ PAUSE light indicate whether the door can be opened: DOOR indicator START/PAUSE indicator Can the door be opened? lit green flashes red or is off yes lit green lit red yes, after the START/PAUSE button has been pressed lit red or is off flashes red or lit red no, water level and/or temperature too high 2.
Dosing depends upon: – the washing’s degree of soiling, – the size of the load – the degree of hardness of the water supply. • If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the detergent that is recommended for a full load. • From water hardness 2 (= medium) upwards, water softener should be used. Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness 1 (= soft).
Switching on the appliance/selecting a programme 3 Set the programme and temperature using the programme knob.

Do not install the appliance on carpets or on soft floor coverings. • The surface on which the appliance is to be installed must be clean and dry and free from coverings that move, so that the appliance does not slide.
Making the appliance level 3 Automatic foot: The rear foot on the left-hand side of your washing machine is built as a shock absorbing foot, which is why the appliance gives in the back left-hand corner if put under load. The automatic foot guarantees that the appliance does not move even at high spin speeds. Basically the automatic foot does not need to be set. The four feet of the appliance are pre-adjusted.
Electrical connection Details about the voltage, type of supply and the fuses required are to be found on the rating plate. The rating plate is next to the doorway. Connecting to the water supply Important! • This appliance must not be connected to the hot water system. • When connecting it, use only new hose kits. • Only connect the appliance to the drinking water supply. Rain water or water for industrial use may only be used if it fulfils the requirements of DIN1986 and DIN1988.
Important! Do not position the inlet hose vertically downwards. Position it to the right or the left as shown in the illustration. 2. Connect the hose with the straight connector to a water tap with an R ¾ (inch) screw thread. 3. Open the water tap slowly and check all connections for water tightness. Water drainage The maximum permitted difference between the height of the surface on which the appliance is installed and the water outlet is 1 metre. Only original hoses may be used to extend hoses.
1 Draining water into a wash basin/bath Important! – Small basins are not suitable. Water may overflow. – The end of the drain hose must not be in the water that has been pumped out. Otherwise water could be sucked back into the appliance. – When draining into a wash basin or a bath, secure the drain hose with the supplied elbow to stop it slipping. Otherwise the water running out can force the hose out of the basin. – When pumping the water out, check that the water is running away fast enough.
